People With Little Time To Workout - The Power of Short, Intense Full-Body Training
Click Here for a FREE 15 min Zoom Consultation With Brad:


In this podcast episode, Brad Williams from Over 40 Fitness Hacks introduces a unique and time-efficient approach to weight training suitable for individuals with limited time, those who dislike traditional workouts, or seek maximum results in minimal time. Brad, drawing from over 14 years of personal training experience, advocates for short, full-body workouts, breaking away from the conventional progressive overload theory prevalent among trainers.

He shares his recent experimentation with condensed gym sessions, reducing from four to three workouts weekly. Brad's approach involves intense, 30-minute sessions focusing on major muscle groups like chest, legs, and back, while using shoulders and arms as stabilizers. He emphasizes time under tension and quality reps, performing just six exercises in total: two sets per muscle group, one as a warm-up and the other at a challenging weight for 4-6 reps.

Contrary to the typical heavy-lifting-first approach, Brad prioritizes joint warm-ups and lighter sets, citing the importance of longevity and joint health. He explains how his philosophy of time under tension has positively impacted his body, alleviating past issues like back problems and joint pains.

Additionally, he mentions incorporating cold plunges before these workouts and notes promising results, considering reducing his sessions to twice a week due to notable gains and soreness. Brad encourages listeners to explore this innovative workout method, highlighting its potential for achieving effective results within a shorter workout duration.
