Build Muscle and Burn Fat At The Same Time?

The most common strategy most people employ for packing on
muscle mass, and then leaning out, is through “bulking and cutting.”
The problem though is that it doesn’t always work.

The most common scenario is that you put on more weight than you
want so you get “fat,” and then jump into endless cardio only to lose a
lot of the hard-earned muscle that you built. So, for a lot of guys the
choice seems to be between being strong and fat or weak and lean.

I’m here to tell you with absolute certainty that this doesn’t have to
be the case. You don’t have to choose between being really strong and
a bit plump or being really lean and kind of weak with little muscle
definition.

I’m going to let you in on a secret—it’s an unconventional approach that
runs contrary to ordinary training philosophies. To build the body you
want, you need to build muscle and burn fat at the same time in order
to achieve that goal of having a ripped, muscular physique.

The way to build muscle and burn fat at the same time is through
incorporating both aerobic and anaerobic activity not just in the same
training session but in the same exercise.

By combining resistance weight training with cardio training
in the same set, we force the thicker stronger Type-II (fast twitch)
muscle fibers to behave more like Type-I (slow twitch) fibers.

By utilizing both types of muscle fibers in the same exercise we can
actually build a “HYBRID” Type-IIC muscle fiber that has been
nicknamed a Type-III.

Now why would you want a Type-III hybrid muscle fiber?

This reconfigured super muscle has more mitochondrial density which
means more nutrients can be processed giving these Type-III muscle
fibers a greater capacity to grow bigger and resist fatigue for longer periods.

This style of training mimics the way that our ancestors used to live.
They didn’t train with weights one day and run laps the next. No.
The kinds of activities they did every day would have been very much
like the hybrid training we’re talking about.

Our ancestors were both muscular and lean and it didn’t result from
things they set out intentionally to do but rather, it was a natural
byproduct of the way they lived their lives.

They were able to both build muscle and burn fat at the same time
without even having to consciously think about. By adopting some of
the very same training principles that they employed, modern man
can achieve the same results.

I checked out their new program myself. Similar to how we do things at Results Fitness - Mike and Elliot have integrated bodyweight training, strongman training, kettlebell training, Olympic lifting, powerlifting, and bodybuilding. It truly is a hybrid system.

Check it out for yourself - Lean Hybrid Muscle - for a limited time, Mike and Elliot are offering their entire program and nutrition support system for 50% off.
