Here’s an outtake from a recent shoot i did in London. This is probably the most up to date shoot in terms of what kind of shape I’m currently in, lately I’ve been doing much more cardio and I’m really seeing a difference. Its so easy to get caught in weight training and focussing on getting bigger that alot of people neglect cardio. Cardio is going to really help you keep your body fat down and help increase your all round fitness.

Ive recently been doing a lot of HIT cardio (high intensity cardio). If your not familiar its basically when you go all out to your max! Often done in some kind of interval workout or circuits.  Its great because its a much more intense way of getting your cardio done and your going to see much better results than just spending ages on a cross trainer. My latest HIT cardio workout is running at an incline for about 10 minutes at a moderate intensity for a warm up, then i sprint for a minute then reduce the speed and recover for 30 seconds. I do about 5 sets of these sprints followed by some body weight exercises like burpees which ill superset with pull ups.

Give HIT cardio a try!
