The Xpress Workouts 300 workout program is featured in our local Daily Herald. I was excited to take a couple of my best clients through the 300 Workout while journalist Robert McCoppin wrote a piece on it for his paper. Here is an excerpt:
"...The exercises are designed to work the body from one end to the other. They use primitive tools like medicine balls and body weight, and compound movements to involve more than one set of muscles, rather than using a machine to isolate one muscle at a time.
This type of training is a variation of what exercise geeks call peripheral heart action, a high-intensity form of circuit training. Instead of doing three sets at a time on each body part, participants go from one exercise to the next, promoting overall circulation.
The beauty of such a workout, personal trainer Robert Garza said, is that it combines cardiovascular exercise with resistance training, so you're gaining muscle at the same time you're burning calories and improving endurance.
Instead of just looking muscular, you should end up with "usable" strength and fitness that also looks ripped.
Best of all, you can get a more intense workout in a shorter amount of time."
