A Simple 8-Week Program Of Fitness Workouts

Some people just want a workout that does it all; strength, speed, flexibility, and cardiovascular fitness. Is there any easy program people can follow to meet these goals? Of course there is!

This program is based on a variety style of training. We have three basic fitness workouts, an A. B. and C that are done on a rotating schedule. Ideally you will workout 4 to 5 times per week but this program is very flexible in that you can workout on consecutive days if you would like. The simple rule is to take at least 2 days off per week.

Now this is a very tough system initially as the change of pace from one workout to the next can be tough to keep up with. But all of these exercises and combinations will stress your body and help increase your overall level of fitness rather dramatically if you put the effort in.
