Hey San Antonio,

Here are the goals for the first two weeks of the 8 week training program. With the Super Bowl this weekend, I decided to start the 8 week program the day after (on Monday). Nonetheless, these are the objectives for the first two weeks.

Weight Training: focusing on all aspects of fitness, especially strength, muscular endurance, form, safety and consistency. Progression is the key, but before we can decide where we are going, we have to decide where we are at. This is where baselines are established for a few important lifts.

Cardio: The key to becoming efficient in both cardio exercise and training is by establishing an efficient cardio base. This is done by training at the upper end of the “heart rate” chart. I won’t obsess about you keeping up with your heart rate, but I will show you simple ways to gauge your effort. The key here is to make the heart more efficient to help recovery and to become more fat burning efficient with less perceived exertion.

Nutrition: This is where most people have issues but there are no excuses. The goals are cut and dry: regular feedings (at least 5 per day). Increased and regular water intake. Basic guidelines of my nutrition timing principles (which I will be reviewing very soon). Oh, and there are absolutely no cheat days for the first 2 weeks. Hey, I went 16 weeks without as much a piece of bread in the prep for my last bodybuilding show, so it’s a small price to pay (and the reason why I’m waiting until after the Super Bowl).

Who is ready? The feedback has been high, so I’m anxious!
