My goal is to increase my overall score when taking the APFT, which includes the 2-minute push-up drill, 2-minute sit-up drill and timed 2-mile run. This program should be conduct 3-5 days per week for a duration of one hour for each session to include 10-minute warm-up and cool-down stretching.
A planned nutritional meal plan is one of the most important aspects of any body composition change. Please see the nutrition section to learn about protein, carbohydrates and fats. The bottom line is to make sure to get 6 small meals during the day all having protein, veggies and fruit. Carbohydrates and protein during and after a workout for muscle recovery. This is needed for increasing muscle mass which will help with your basal metabolic rate (BMR).
All routines benefit from changing the sets, weight and reps week to week. This will help prevent a plateau. An example is:
Week 1: 6-8 reps 4 sets- Muscle Mass Week 2: 12-15 reps 3-4 sets - Definition Week 3: 1-3 reps 5 sets - Power Week 4: 8-10 reps |
