ASK GILAD
Q: What is the best ratio between cardio and toning?

 

A: For an ideal training program I would go 50% cardio and 50% toning/strength for these reasons.  

When it comes to burning calories cardio exercise has a slight advantage.  You'll burn 8 to 10 calories a minute doing toning/strength exercises with weights compared with 10 to 12 calories a minute doing cardio exercises.

On the other hand, strength training gives you a metabolic boost that lasts several hours after your workout because your body will work overtime helping your muscles recover. That means you'll continue burning calories for hours after the workout is done!  With cardio workouts the 'after workout effect' is much less.  

 

In my opinion both are equally important for your overall fitness level. Cardio exercise is essential in maintaining a strong heart, lungs and blood flow.  Toning/strength exercise is an excellent metabolism booster.

EXERCISE TIPS
Take Your Training to the Next Level With Interval Training!

You can increase the calorie burn of your workouts with less time spent working out!  And you can raise your metabolic rate to burn more calories even after your workout is over!  

Interval training has been shown to support muscle growth, increase fat loss and increase the metabolic rate!

So what is interval training? It is really pretty simple. It consists of alternating high intensity exercise and low intensity recovery periods.   

Our 'Interval Training' and 'Hard Core' (from the Lord of the Abs series) DVD's are designed specifically as interval training programs.

Here is a typical interval training cardio routine you can do on a treadmill anytime!

 

  • minutes 1-3: walk at 3.5 mph (0% incline on treadmill)
  • minutes 4-5: walk at 4 mph (0% incline on treadmill)
  • minutes 6-8: walk at 3.5 mph (4% incline on treadmill)
  • minutes 9-11: walk at 3.5 mph (6% incline on treadmill)
  • minutes 12-13: jog at 4.5 mph (4% incline on treadmill)
  • minutes 14-15: walk at 3.5 mph (0% inline on treadmill)

HEALTHY FOOD TIPS
Maintaining a stable blood sugar level
Cravings are detrimental to anyone who is trying to lose weight successfully and they are usually caused by low blood sugar levels. The best way to win the battle on cravings is to maintain a stable blood sugar level throughout the day.  By eating unrefined complex carbohydrates, vegetables and fruits that are high in fiber, as well as lean proteins and essential fats you will maintain a steady blood sugar level and eliminate cravings.  Try to eat 3 regular meals a day along with a couple of healthy snacks in between and make sure you drink enough water during the day.

Simple changes in your eating habits will produce noticeable improvements very quickly.  You will be amazed at how quickly you will see and feel the changes in your body and energy level when you start eating the right foods on a regular basis.


Here are a few examples of the variety of foods that you can eat whenever you are hungry:

 

Fresh Vegetables

Asparagus
Bell Peppers
Broccoli
Cabbage
Carrots
Cauliflower
Green Peas
Mushrooms
Sweet Potatoes

 

 

Fresh Fruits

I am so happy with my purchase of all 5 Lord of the Abs dvds!  Each dvd offers something unique to really get your body into shape without getting bored.  I think these are the best dvds for getting great abs.  Gilad's customer service is excellent, and the dvds were shipped very fast!  I am very pleased with my purchase.  Thank you!

I have military workout,and others and just purchased the 5 videos and find them challenging and I am thrilled with all the videos. I had always worked out since my 20's Gilad's workouts are the best I had ever used.  Thank you

Charlene, SC
I love these DVDs. Gilad is the best in the business. I have most of his other DVDs, was so happy when I received these 5 because they were a little different from the others and more intense. I love them. Thanks Gilad!

Bernard, MA
I love it, nice clear precise directions from the instructor, tells you where you should be feeling the move, also my favorite part, is the way he breaks down the move slowly and then shows you how to do the move correctly at the regular pace.
