Cardio done first thing in the morning before your first meal.

Aim to keep your heart rate at 70% of your maximum heart rate [220 - age in years] for the full time.

Bike/Stairs/Jog/Incline Treadmill

Session I: Fasted Cardio

- Lying on an incline bench, Hold light dumbbells in each hand
- Extend and raise your arms in the shape of a “Y” formation (thumbs upward) 
- Then bring them down to form a “T” (thumbs down)
- Follow with the last movement by putting your arms in the shape of a “W” by shrugging and squeezing your shoulder blades together and raising your arms like a field goal, rotating your thumbs pointing behind you

Y-T-W Raise

Band Pull-apart

Session II: Warm Up

- Lie back on an incline bench with a dumbbell in each hand atop your thighs, palms of your hands will be facing each other
- Then, using your thighs to help push the dumbbells up, lift the dumbbells one at a time so that you can hold them at shoulder width
- Once you have the dumbbells raised to shoulder width, rotate your wrists forward so that the palms of your hands are facing away from you
- Be sure to keep full control of the dumbbells at all times
- Then breathe out and push the dumbbells up with your chest
- Lock your arms at the top, hold for a second, and then start slowly lowering the weight (Ideally, lowering the weights should take about twice as long as raising them)

Incline Dumbbell Bench Press

Perform one set of each exercise back to back followed by the suggested rest time.

- Lie back on a flat bench. Using a medium width grip (a grip that creates a 90-degree angle in the middle of the movement between the forearms and the upper arms), lift the bar from the rack and hold it straight over you with your arms locked
- From the starting position, breathe in and begin coming down slowly until the bar touches your middle chest
- After a brief pause, push the bar back to the starting position as you breathe out (Focus on pushing the bar using your chest muscles)
- Lock your arms and squeeze your chest in the contracted position at the top of the motion, hold for a second and then start coming down slowly again (Ideally, lowering the weight should take about twice as long as raising it)

Barbell Bench Press

- Lie down on a flat bench with a dumbbell on each hand resting on top of your thighs, palms of your hand will be facing each other
- Then using your thighs to help raise the dumbbells, lift the dumbbells one at a time so you can hold them in front of you at shoulder width with the palms of your hands facing each other
- Raise the dumbbells up like you're pressing them, but stop and hold just before you lock out
- With a slight bend on your elbows in order to prevent stress at the biceps tendon, lower your arms out at both sides in a wide arc until you feel a stretch on your chest (Keep in mind that throughout the movement, the arms should remain stationary; the movement should only occur at the shoulder joint)
- Return your arms back to the starting position as you squeeze your chest muscles and breathe out (Make sure to use the same arc of motion used to lower the weights)
- Hold for a second at the contracted position and repeat the movement for the prescribed amount of repetitions

Dumbbell Fly

superset: Bench Press x Dumbbell Fly

- Start by wrapping your dip belt around your waist, chain side in front
- Attach your weight plate to the dropped side before looping it around, and clip it back to the other side of your belt
- Mount the dip bars, holding onto the bars as you hold your body at arm’s length (arms and elbows straight and locked)
- Keep your head in line with your trunk, wrists in line with your forearms
- Inhale as you slowly start to lower your body
- Let your torso move slightly forward and your elbows to flare out to the side
- Once you feel a stretch in your chest, breathe out and start to push yourself slowly back up to the starting position

Weighted Dip

- Stand in front of your box or bench, then squat or bend down and place both hands on either side of it with your fingers pointing forward
- Your hands should be about shoulder-width apart
- Once your hands are in the right position, step your body back into a plank position, one leg at a time
- Make sure your body is in a straight line, your head is aligned with your spine
- Looking a few inches ahead of you, rather than down at the box, can help keep your body straight
- Bend your arms as you slowly lower your chest toward the bench 
- Straighten your arms, pressing yourself back up into plank position

Incline Push-up

superset: Dip x Push Up

- Attach the rope to a high pulley and grab with an neutral grip 
- Standing upright with the torso straight and a very small inclination forward, bring the upper arms close to your body and perpendicular to the floor
- The forearms should be pointing up towards the pulley as they hold the rope 
- Using the triceps, bring the rope down until your arms are fully extended, spreading the rope slightly
- The upper arms should always remain stationary next to your torso and only the forearms should move
- Hold at contraction then return the rope slowly up to the starting point

Cable Rope Extension

- Sit in an upright position and lift the dumbbell to the top of your shoulder
- Take a deep breath, overlap your hands around the dumbbell, then press it into position overhead
- Maintain an overlapping grip and slowly lower the dumbbell behind your head by unlocking your elbows
- Once your forearms reach parallel or just below, drive the dumbbell back to the starting point by extending the elbows and flexing the triceps

Dumbbell French Press

- Hold the dumbbells with your palms facing forward
- Curl one dumbbell up, engaging your bicep 
- Lower the dumbbell with a controlled motion
- Repeat on the opposite side
- Alternating back and forth for time or reps
