  1. Hi... been training consistently for 4 years. Looking to shake things
    up in the routine. My goal is get as lean/cut as possible, while
    giving back as little muscle as possible over the next 2 months. I've
    followed split training routine for years. After reading some
    articles, i seen it commented that best way to burn fat(while retaining
    as much muscle as possible while cutting) is full body workouts using
    the big compound lifts with short rests..basically get your heartrate
    up.

    I'm trying the following...3-4 sets of each exercise:
    1) Dips/Military (alternating workouts)
    2) Squat
    3) Bench
    4) SLDL
    5) Shrugs/curls (alternating)
    6) treadmill

    other notes: resting approx 60 seconds or less between sets. I'm also
    intentionally not getting bench earlier since i've overdone that in the
    past and alittle out of proportion.

    I've just started this and they've been the most "intense" workouts in
    the tired sense. don't feel the pump(which i expected) but again, i'm
    solely trying to strip fat, but retain as much musc. as i can

    So basically just looking for any comments/suggestions/effectiveness of
    this type of plan.

    Thanks for insight.

    Chin or row, maybe instead of curls.

    Situps and crunches.

    That's incredible! And I thought I did good at 90 mimutes a day, but 4
    years? I couldn't even stay awake that long.
