What if I told you that you could start losing weight and getting in shape in only 1 hour per week? You'd probably think I was crazy, right? Well what if I told you that I'd trained superstars in Hollywood and helped them create perfect bodies for their movies? Am I starting to convince you yet? Well the truth is that you definitely can get in shape and lose weight in 20 minutes per day, 3 times per week. All you have to do is follow what I call, the boot camp method. Here is what I mean:

When soldiers go to boot camp, they basically cram as much information and instruction in as little time as possible. Boot camp is essentially a crash course in becoming a soldier. This includes getting in shape and learning job skills. Well with your body, this is a very similar process. Through a body boot camp, you are teaching your body how to adapt to a rigorous lifestyle and showing it which muscles it needs to build up and which fat stores it needs to give up. A body boot camp is a way to force your body into submission in a matter of weeks, rather than years.

The principles behind the boot camp method are simple, you increase intensity and lower duration of exercise. My favorite way to do this is by taking you through a course of different exercises and doing them for 1 minute each, at maximum intensity. Sure, 20 minutes doesn't seem like a lot, but the truth is that by the end you will be sore and exhausted. However, this is good, it means your body isn't used to the effort. When your body does get used to the effort, then you simply use a more difficult exercise or increase the duration (at the same intensity of course!).

My boot camp method is a way to train your body to increase its metabolism and build strength, rather than to lie dormant. You are training your muscles too, through the course of rigorous exercise. As a result, they will start to react to your training and become stronger and more efficient. You will also notice an increased metabolism, which will provide you with more energy then ever before. This is one of the best benefits of all, because if you are anything like me then you could always use more energy. The boot camp method can help you find that extra surge at the end of the day.

A lot of methods require you to spend hours working out or doing cardio, but they are useless without high intensity sessions. If you start increasing your workout intensity, you will find that you can increase in muscular strength and endurance very quickly. This is the type of reaction necessary to create a thin and tone body, just like that of the superstars in Hollywood. If you follow this technique, I promise you that not only will you learn to love working out again, but you will start seeing results almost instantly.
