If you want to lose fat and develop your muscles at the same time, you need to use training  techniques that help you accomplish BOTH goals at once. That's where THIS training style comes in...

You'll be performing a circuit of three different bodyweight exercises that target different areas of the body and completely different movement patterns. You'll be doing just 3 reps at a time on each exercise and you'll be performing them NON-STOP for a block of 15 minutes.

This is an incredibly effective way to train for fat loss.

You'll be using movements that allow you to work with a good amount of resistance (enough to actually have a muscle-building/sparing training effect) and you'll doing them continuously, for a cardiovascular training effect.

And because the movements are so completely different, targeting different aspects of your body, while you're doing one, the other muscles are basically resting. This allows you to maintain a relatively high level of performance all the way through the entire 15 minute block of time, cranking your metabolism extremely effectively.

This particular set of exercises focuses only on bodyweight movements. You can absolutely sub in other exercises, if you're not able to perform any of these exercises. Just follow the push/pull/squat pattern that I use with the three exercises and you'll be good to go.

The exercises I'm working with in the demo are the handstand push-up, the chin-up and the towel-assisted pistol (one-legged squat).
