The Complete Guide To Men's Workouts

The Complete Guide To Men's Workouts
Magazine

There’s no pill that works as well as exercise does to treat (and help prevent) a variety of conditions that affect men, including heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, depression, obesity, certain cancers and pain. But finding the time to exercise can be tough. And counting rep after rep and set after set can get boring. In 20-Minute Workouts, you’ll find short, effective sessions that you can do at home or at the gym with minimal equipment. The key to maximizing those 20 minutes is movement—and intensity. Our weight-based workouts borrow from professional athlete training, Crossfit and the newest exercise research so every session becomes a strength-and-cardio combo, burning more calories and boosting fitness. Every cardio session is amped up as well, with minute-by-minute instructions for HIIT (high-intensity interval training), hills, cycling and circuit-training workouts. The issue includes plans that target the entire body, including the areas men are most concerned with, such as the abs, arms, chest, back and legs. Finally, you’ll find stories on how to eat to build and maintain muscle and reduce fat, train smarter to reach your fitness goals without over-stressing your body, and tweak your workouts to get better results even faster. With this issue in your hands, there’s no excuse to skip that workout.
