1) Perform Serious Strength Training It’s a critical mistake when people who want to lose fat decide to swap their heavy strength training for lighter high rep training. I know the lighter high rep stuff will bring your heart rate up higher and make you sweat more, but this does NOT lead to greater fat loss. Instead, it encourages decreases of strength and lean muscle. Don’t buy into the “just do metabolic conditioning circuits for fat loss” hype. Instead, make sure you hit some heavy sets of 3-5 reps on the big compound movements. 2) Emphasize Muscle Building (Hypertrophy) Work This one may be obvious to you. Muscle building is absolutely crucial if you want to get ripped. Your lean muscle is the foundation of your entire physique. Furthermore, the amount of muscle you have dictates your metabolic rate. The more muscle you have, the higher your metabolism will be. And a higher metabolic rate will lead to greater fat loss. Be sure to include multiple sets in the 6-10 rep range for each major movement pattern.
