High Intensity Training Workout Ideas
Hello everyone. I just wanted to post a few videos that show different types of High Intensity Workout ideas. I would challenge you to try and implement some of these into your workout routine to maximize rapid fat loss
Plyometric & High Intensity Interval Training
4 min Fat Burning Cardio Workout w/ Exercise Bike – Try this Quick Fat Burning Cardio Workout using an Exercise Bike with Tabata Intervals.
10 Minute High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) Workout\
This workout consists of 8 rounds of medicine ball burpees, using the Tabata Protocol (20 seconds of work, 10 seconds of rest per round). After completion of this exercise, there is a 60 second rest period. Then, begin the next exercise with countdowns using pushups and explosive jumps. Countdowns are simply intervals workouts that start with 10 reps for each movement have a 10 second rest period between “sets.” Each successive set starts with one less rep. Once you reach 5 reps, eliminate the rest period between sets. If you’re very pressed for time, this workout will deliver. Prepare to sweat and breathe heavy. Once this becomes easy for you, simply add more intervals to the burpee exercise and do explosive pushups for all intervals in the countdowns.

How to Choose the Right Fitness Boot Camp in Summerlin by Using motivFIT’s RED FLAG System.
First, it’s important to understand who we are and our background.

REMEMBER: Boot camps in Summerlin are not about military exercises designed for 18 year olds. Our Fitness Camps are about appropriate, challenging, fun and safe exercises that will sculpt your body the right way as quickly as possible.
Second, be sure to ask the following questions when researching Boot Camps in Summerlin and other fitness classes in the Summerlin area:
1. Are you and your fitness instructors certified Personal Trainers?
There are many people out there that have been working out in the gym for years and therefore believe that they are qualified to be a “personal trainer” and give instruction. Just because a person knows how to lift a weight, doesn’t make them an expert in health science. Would you get medical treatment from someone that knew a lot about medicine, but doesn’t hold a Doctorate in medicine and is not board certified through the state? BEWARE of “boot camps”, in which, the instructors teaching the class are not certified personal trainers, but individuals that went through the boot camp in Summerlin, got results, and now feel qualified to teach a class.
RED FLAG #1 – Non-Certified Personal Trainers teaching the class
2. Where did you receive your Personal Training Certification and who is the organization accredited by?
Anyone can log on to the Internet, pay for a Personal Training Certification, and now they hold a “Personal Trainer Certification”. Don’t be fooled by imposters! For more information on recognized and accredited certifications please visit the NOCA website.
RED FLAG #2 – Did not receive Personal Training Certification from an Accredited Institution
***Don’t be afraid to ask for them to show you their certification. They should be able to provide you with a current certification.***
3. Please tell me about your fitness background and experience.
Ask them how long they have been training and if this is what they do full-time. Ask to see written client testimonials.
If the boot camp in Summerlin or fitness class you are looking to join can’t answer these questions or provide you with the requested information, then run! If you log onto a Summerlin Boot Camp website and there is no information on the company background, certifications and experience, or testimonials, then chances are you are dealing with a fake. A lot of us will shop around for months when it comes time for us to buy a new T.V., furniture, or even a car. Don’t you think you owe it to yourself the same research when it comes to your HEALTH?
RED FLAG #3 – Part-Time or barely-certified trainers dabbling in fitness while looking for work. Can’t provide background information on company or individual and have no proven track record.
4. Cost of the Camps
If someone is charging you 5 bucks a class, all I can say is you will get what you pay for. Would you go to the lowest cost Doctor in town when seeking medical treatment? This is your health that we are talking about! Inexperienced trainers and fakes will try and earn your business by offering the lowest priced Summerlin Boot Camp in town. Why do they do that?? The simple fact is that they do not believe in what they are doing or they don’t truly believe they can help you to achieve your health and fitness goals in their Boot Camps in Summerlin. The other reason is that they want to load up there Boot Camp class sizes with 30-40 people per trainer. How do you plan on getting the proper exercise instruction with this many people in a class?? You won’t!
The maximum numbers of clients in our Fitness Camps are 15.
The cost of motivFIT Fitness Camps are higher than most other Boot Camps in Summerlin. Why?

There are a lot of you out there that wonder how you might exercise with a knee injury. I have a lot of clients that come to me with knee problems and would like to use the excuse not to exercise because of a knee problem. People seem to forget that they have an upper body when it comes to knee injuries. While you are letting your knee recover, and it will take some time because of the vascular recovery time in the ligaments surrounding your knee, you can lift weights and do upper body exercises. If you keep the tempo up with only about 20 seconds rest in between sets, your heart rate will stay in the 80% target zone. This is high-intensity training and the result will increase your post-oxidation state, which will increase the amount of calories burned throughout the rest of your day. I believe that this is by far the best form of training for weight loss and overall conditioning. We have helped 100’s of clients achieve their fitness goals through our Outdoor Fitness Camps using this style of training. Do this combined with proper nutrition and you will see results.
