x10 Training

x10 Training is a great fat-burning, strength-building workout based on a 10 repetition exercise program. Studies have shown that 10 repetitions of a particular exercise is optimal for increasing strength, power and stability as well as increasing metabolic rate which burns more calories.

A typical x10 Training session is short but VERY intense. You must choose a minimum of 4 different exercises and complete 10 repetitions of each. These can be upper or lower body exercises depending on what part of the body you want to target on a particular workout. You can use any piece of equipment and perform as many sets as you wish. For effective results perform no more than 3 sets and adjust the weight/resistance accordingly.

The video below is an example of a x10 Training workout using one of my favourite pieces of fitness equipment at the moment...the kettlebell. Stay tuned for more x10 Training workouts in the near future, and don't forget to leave your comments on this workout. Enjoy!
