Busy Women - You Fit And Healthy Fast

How The Busy Woman Get's Fit Fast. Guy's this works for you too.


What do you do when you are short on time and something in you life needs to take a back seat. You put off your weight training workouts. I'll do it later or tommorrow. The problem is later or tommorrow never comes.

So let me give you a 3 exercise weight training workout. When it comes down to it you don't need and shouldn't be doing hour long marathon workouts. Research has shown time and again 20- 30 minutes 3-4 time a week is best.

The key is using total body exercises (compound exercises). For those of you not familiar with the term compound exercises they are exercises that work multiple bodyparts in one exercise.

Compound exercises:
Deadlift
Squats
Bench Press
Barbell or Dumbbell Cleans
Dumbbell or Barbell Presses

That is a short list to give you an idea of the weight training exercises you should be doing. Total body conditiong gives you the most bang for your effort.

Weight Training Workout

after your warm-up:

1 - Deadlifts (barbell) 3-5 sets of 5-8 reps

2 - Bench Press (barbell or dumbbell) 3-5 sets of 5-8 reps

3 - Clean and Press (barbell or dumbbell) 3-5 sets 0f 5-8 reps

Yes that's it with this workout you have worked virtually every muscle group in your body(muscle building and strengthening). Keep your rest between sets short(fat burning).

You could do this workout in straight sets(bodybuilding style) or you could do it in a circuit style one exercise after the other.

The days of the marathon workouts are over. If anyone tells you that your weight training, kettlebell or interval workouts should be for at least an hour at a time doesn't have a clue.

Trust me short sweet and to the point gets it done.

Of course the workout I showed you here is just one example there are countless combinations you can use.
