Ever wonder what other readers of worldfitnessnetwork are doing for their workouts? What’s working for them? What isn’t?
I’ve started asking some of our readers – normal people like you – to talk to me about their routines. I think you’ll learn from these interviews and get inspired!
For LeanLifters members, I’ll send you a separate email with the MP3 download. Everyone else can listen using the buttons on the new page from the link below.
Each one is only about 15 minutes – give a listen and see if you can pick up some tips!

Just starting out with weightlifting? Want to get bigger muscles this winter?
Get my full-body lifting routine here: FullBodyAttack!
Thank you to everyone who sent in questions last week – we had plenty!
In fact, there were so many that I decided to record the answers – that way I could answer more and also get the answers out sooner (typing all those answers takes a lot of time!).

I mention several resources in the call. Here are the links to those:
- Tom’s Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle
- My 6×6x6 Routine
- My Fat Burn Furnace routine
You can certainly check out the other resource links on the right while you listen (just right-click to open them in new windows so your audio isn’t interrupted).

About a week ago, I offered to our email subscribers an open Q&A session: “ask your questions and I’ll try to get them answered”. The asking is something we only offer the email list, but RSS subscribers can still see the answers. As usual we had tons of questions. I’m posting most of them here – the rest will await a future post.

Tabata intervals are an example of HIIT (you go for 20 seconds AS INTENSELY AS YOU CAN – REALLY HARD, then take a 10 second break, then repeat, for a total of about 4 minutes). Most people can only do Tabata for about 4 or 5 minutes before feeling like vomiting. Myself included. I only do that once a week at most and only at certain points in the year.
