Getting back into a workout routine after falling off track can be difficult and overwhelming.
Specially when you’re recommended to hit the gym 5-6x per week to get better results.
With our busy schedules it can be hard to sustain 5 days of visiting a gym over a long period of time.
I’ve been doing a routine that has worked great for me lately because it only requires me to attend a gym 3 days per week and still lose a ton of weight.
Once I’m at the gym, the workouts are intense but totally worth it.
Once the 3 days are done you don’t have to worry about missing a workout or messing up a fresh blowout.
Here’s a great 3 Day workout routine for fast fat loss and toning.
3 Day Workout Routine:
Complete 45-60 minutes of cardio and 1 circuit sample. Repeat 3x per week.
Day 1: Cardio & Circuit #1
Day 2: Cardio & Circuit #2
Day 3: Cardio & Circuit #3
Circuit training 3-5 exercises:
Circuit training allows you to complete exercises back to back while keeping your heart rate up and burning calories. These exercises are meant to be completed one after the other with little to no rest. Complete a circuit or 5 exercises, rest 60-90 seconds repeat the same circuit 3-4 times.
You’ll save time at the gym while building muscle and shedding fat.
A mix of heavy and light weight an be used.

3 sets: 10-20 reps depending on the weight:

Cardio 3x per week 45-60 mins:
Cardio is great for burning fat and overall health.
Getting your cardio done 3 days per week makes it easier to get everything done once youre in the gym.
Mixing anything from sprints, elliptical, bike, or walking on an incline to engage your core.
