Not many people like to go to the gym 3 days a week to perform their hardcore workouts. If you are like, you probably enjoy doing your workouts within the comfort of your own home. I love doing exercises at home without having to wait for my turn at the bench or the stationary bike which now has a 10 minute time limit. I have to change my machine after that.
That is no way for a person to workout intensely if one wishes to lose fat fast.
If you have a pair of dumbbells, a stability ball, a chin up bar (you can find ones that can be attached to the door) and a bench (not necessary), you can easily perform super intense fat burning workouts at home.
The only problem that you might face is the inability to do interval training at home without having access to a cardio machine like treadmill or stationary bike. I’d say the best way to perform interval training is sprinting. Saw those sprinters in the Olympics? Wouldn’t you kill to have a body like them?
There are also momentum training exercises like kettle bell swings and snatches, but today I am going to show you a simple trick from my buddy Craig on how to design your own bodyweight circuits to replace intervals.

Have you every experience a time when you get confused over which goal you need to focus on? Do you want to build more muscle or lose the fat?
Well, sometimes it’s not up to you to decide. You need to follow the numbers. I had a hard time trying to cut fat when Craig stood up and pointed me in the right direction. My body fat was low but I still had a small stomach. I worked out right, ate right and even went to the extreme of strict diet and intense workouts for few weeks, but I saw very small difference in results.
Craig explained with a chart showing that I was doing things wrong. I needed to focus on gaining a few pounds of muscle to get a ripped look. This was like a goldmine for me! I could eat more calories and workout with interval training. That was fun!
So if you are having a hard time wondering if you want to gain muscle or lose fat, you might want to continue reading this article.
