Pareto Principle 80/20 for Your Body


Book Description

No more slave to the gym but free and tonic with only 4 hours a month Twenty years ago, when I was twenty-one, I enrolled in the gym with all the good intentions. I didn't want to waste time or money on the subscription. So I began to buy all the magazines in the sector at the time. In those days, the internet was not as widespread as it is now.On the glossy pages of those magazines the thought reigned supreme: "more is better". I had greedily read everything there was to read and had memorized the training routines, diet regimens and even the personal habits of all the best champions but I began to hate the gym!After months, my motivation had diminished so much that I began to think seriously about leaving the gym. I thought that if the training three hours a day wasn't enough to cause an increase in my muscle mass, maybe I would have to increase to four hours a day. And it was hard to justify more time at the gym, since I was already tired of my job. If the development of a physique meant giving up on social life, then no, it was not worth it.The cause-effect relationship between intense exercise and muscle growth is supported by the fact that the body has limited capacity. High intensity training must be short and rare. Memorizing the workout routines of muscle magazines didn't make me an expert. For the first time in my life, I listened to someone who took the values of knowledge, reason, logic and science very seriously. At 24, I quickly switched to a high intensity training program and - in just a year and a half - my tired and mediocre physique underwent a radical transformation.The science of bodybuilding begins where all science begins: the recognition of reality, an absolute, undetermined objective flow. That reality and its laws (the laws of physics) are immutable. The High Intensity Workout with the exercise bike with which you can burn fat even when riding only 4 minutes I'm not telling you to lose weight by walking but you can burn fat at home in the shortest time. You will start with just 4 minutes and gradually you will get to a quarter of an hour during a 2 month long program. You will not have to do any more, no less than I will tell you. Now have I been clearer?The book you have under your eyes was made exclusively for those who want to improve their appearance in the most profitable way possible despite the limited time available (or unwillingness). The aerobic training philosophy proposed here is exactly the opposite of what you have usually heard repeated in the gym or read on some industry magazine. Don't be fooled by the authority that various books, sites or magazines have. In a direct way I'm telling you to train a little but well! Lose weight quickly: Training and overtraining The problem is a question of intelligence and experience. Based on my experience and that of those who have trained with me, I don't want you to make our own mistakes. Soon you will understand that the difference is not in the amount of hours spent on the bike but on the quality of the rides.See you on the other side!

80/20 Triathlon


Book Description

A breakthrough program for triathletes -- beginner, intermediate, and advanced -- showing how to balance training intensity to maximize performance -- from a fitness expert and elite coach. Cutting-edge research has proven that triathletes and other endurance athletes experience their greatest performance when they do 80 percent of their training at low intensity and the remaining 20 percent at moderate to high intensity. But the vast majority of recreational triathletes are caught in the so-called "moderate-intensity rut," spending almost half of their time training too hard--harder than the pros. Training harder isn't smarter; it actually results in low-grade chronic fatigue that prevents recreational athletes from getting the best results. In 80/20 Triathlon, Matt Fitzgerald and David Warden lay out the real-world and scientific evidence, offering concrete tips and strategies, along with complete training plans for every distance--Sprint, Olympic, Half-Ironman, and Ironman--to help athletes implement the 80/20 rule of intensity balance. Benefits include reduced fatigue and injury risk, improved fitness, increased motivation, and better race results.
