  • Hey what's up Six Pack Shortcutters, Mike here. today we're going to talk about

  • "the afterburn effect" and what it is and how you can get

  • super ripped and why we based our whole program on it

  • so the afterburn effect, what it is is it's when your body burns calories

  • up to 48 hours after you finish working out

  • so you can work out today and up to 48 hours afterwards, you're continuously still

  • burning calories

  • very different than a normal workout because usually you go to gym for let's say

  • 45 minutes or an hour

  • you workout, your heart rate is high, your body temperature is high

  • but the moment that you're done working out, your rate drops back down

  • and so is your body temperature and you stop burning calories

  • The problem with that is there's 24 hours in a day

  • but if you burn calories for only one hour. What you're burning the other 23 hours?

  • Now unless your job is very very physically active and you're continuously

  • running around throughout the day,

  • most of us I find are just sitting around and they're not burning as much

  • calories as they need to they need to

  • which is why normal people have such a hard time losing weight and losing fat

  • because you're not burning enough calories throughout the day

  • but the afterburn effect allows you to burn calories

  • 48 hours afterwards continuously here's a good example

  • Think about, let's say working on your chest. you have two exercises. You have a

  • bench press and you have a cable fly

  • where you're grabbing the cables and you go like this and you work your chest

  • So a cable fly, when you do this, it just works your chest. When you have a bench press,

  • it works your chest, your shoulders and it works your triceps.

  • Three muscle groups verses cable fly one muscle group.

  • So three muscle groups burns more calories

  • uses more muscle fuel and in turn are going to activate

  • the afterburn, so you've got to make sure you're doing the right exercise, too.

  • Now keep this in mind guys you can't go ahead and just jump onto the training with

  • the afterburn techniques right away

  • you have to get your body ready because people that are in my program

  • we have a lot of things that we have to do before we actually start triggering the afterburn effect

  • So keep this in mind if you're not a member in our program no worries

  • What I want to do though is to A) Make sure you're doing the right exercise

  • by far the next two weeks

  • try this. And make sure you do the right exercise, keep them compound,

  • multi-muscle groups when you're doing the exercises

  • Make sure you rest time keep it anywhere from about 60 seconds up to 90 seconds

  • and also be consistent on your workouts. Workout anywhere from about

  • 4 to about 6 days a week

  • for the next two weeks to get your body ready game. Afterwards, you can start applying

  • the other techniques which is keeping your rep slower, use your heavy weight

  • keeping your rest times even lower and

  • also keeping the sets a lot higher and your set range should be anywhere from about

  • 6 even up to about 8 sets, because remember you gotta have enough volume to completely

  • drained down the fuel inside your muscles. So if you want more information on the afterburn

  • check out the website SixPackShortcuts.com I'll see you guys next time
