Hey RiPPEd clients, the last day has come of high rep week!!

Day 4 we are going to once again put back/shoulders together with boxing to completely carve out your back and shoulder muscles! Not only is it a demanding workout working two major muscles but it is a crazy fat burner, so lets go 100mph, feel the burn, and see some results! Day 4 means we go out with bang...do not want to go into your weekend feeling like shit about how you finished off your week!

High Rep Week...Day 1: Chest & Abdominals, Day 2: Arms & Boxing

Way to go RiPPEd clients! I know today was extremely hard because you were all having a crash from all the Easter brunch sugar! You still showed up and worked really hard and that's what counts! I can promise you that you will have more energy tomorrow so bring it and lets have a good one! We will be having another bicep/tricep war, justthis time it will be doing double the reps in each set!  This week is your week to take a step forward and increase your muscle endurance and really tone up the muscle you have built! You have got to have those arms ready for summer! Make sure you are back on your diet and not giving into the sugar cravings you are having from brunch!

Day 3...TricepsBicep War & Sprints, Day 4...Legs, Abdominals, & Plyometrics

Hey RiPPEd clients, I am sorry I was late on this blog...way to hit it hard yesterday! Nothing like having your biceps and triceps battle it out for an hour, one pushing, one pulling, such a good pain! Just got done with the 730 pm class and they said it was the hardest leg workout yet! Be ready to fail out your legs and twist up your core, we will be targeting every leg and core muscle and taking it to absolute failure! Just remember do not stop, a one inch rep is better then no rep! Lets finish the heavy lifting off right RiPPEd clients!

Day 2...Back, Shoulders, & Boxing!!!

Hey RiPPEd clients, we are going to do things a little different this week. I am challenging you to completely burn out two major muscles in this one back/shoulder failing workout! We will alternate back and forth between the two muscles with each set consisting of a heavy lift, fat-burning move, and boxing cardio! I usually split these two muscle groups up because they are so challenging, so except the challenge and come tonight/tomorrow and kill this killer workout! Working double major muscle groups is the number one way to effectively build muscle and burn fat all at the same time! Just remember to fail out in each and every set...burn=change, so when you feel that burn be sure to slam out a few more reps until you literally can not push or pull the weight up or down anymore!

Week 2: Heavy/Failure...Day 1: Chest, Abs, & Treadmills!!!

Hey RiPPEd Clients, we will be hitting chest heavy and to failure and then quick hitting an abdominal super set! Will be starting class off with an extremely challenging treadmill workout! Last week lifting heavy so take every set to absolute failure and lets see some gains! I know this weather is terrible but don't let that control what you do in the studio today! Bring some energy and lets do work! I am sorry blogs have not gone up yet just waiting on some site maintenance to get finished before I can do anything!

Day 4...Legs, Abdominals, & Plyo!!!

Hey RiPPEd Clients, here comes your favorite day, I know it is :)! We are going to hit the legs heavy, drop the weight, and quickly superset with abs and plyo-metrics to work the core and legs! It is going to burn but just remember that burn and pain is change happening, it is you pushing yourself to your limitations, it is you striving to take it to the next level and change your body, and when you reach absolute failure you have taken your muscles and body to a whole new level...DO NOT continue to do the same amount of weight at the same amount of reps week after week! Every day you walk into the stretch studio you have a chance to better yourself physically by changing your body and mentally by improving your energy and confidence, so lets make it happen!

Day 3...Shoulders, Triceps, & The Incline!!!

Hey RiPPEd Clients, the day you have all been waiting for is here :). It is time lift that weight up over your head and hit the most noticeable muscle on your body! Summer is coming and the sleeves will be off so DO NOT cheat this workout! We are gonna compliment your shoulder lifts with tricep shredding moves and the incline treadmill. Be ready for some pike press! Be sure to get your 24 or 16 grams of whey protein 30 min prior to workout, and if you so choose your pre-workout formula 15 min. before!

Day 2...Back/Biceps & Boxing!!

Hey RiPPEd clients, we will be lifting back/biceps with supersets! Heavy and slow, to fast and light, to crazy boxing cardio! Like I said just because its weights week does not mean we go at a slow tempo, we need to go at an even faster tempo! Last but certainly not least, we will finish our workout with lower back exercises to help fully develop our core. People are constantly working their frontal abdominals, well what about your lower back? It is just as important!

Back to Lifting!!! Day 1...Chest & Abs

ripp[Hey RiPPEd clients, time to get the heavy weights back out and build some lean muscle! Remember just because we are lifting does not mean the intensity drops, need to keep a high tempo through this week and next! Will be incorporating a lot more core into the next couple weeks so be ready for it! I have your new diets so will be giving them to you at class. Time to really focus on your diet with summer fast approaching!

Day 4...Cardiovascular Endurance!

Hey RiPPEd clients, it is the end of cardio week and you know we always go out with a bang, and we are going  to do just that tomorrow! Time to introduce you to the downtown parking ramp, but don't worry we will get you all warmed up with some boxing and treadmill circuits! Tomorrow will tell you a little something about yourself and prove to me and more importantly you how bad you want to reach your physical fitness goals. If you think sprinting at a twelve incline on the treadmill is hard, just wait till you do it with out the treadmill belt moving your feet! You can either give a half ass effort or look at this as a new challenge and show up tomorrow and give it everything you got and kick the ramp's ass! I know you can physically we will see if you can get past the mental aspect of it! Do not worry I will be sure to let you know if you passed or failed! Please don't make me have to be rude! See you bright and early...I am going to have you saying, "THANK GOD ITS FRIDAY".

Day 3...Core & Legs!

I was late on this blog and I apologize, but all six of my RiPPEd classes did awesome! Everyone gave their best effort and I am sure you are all feeling like someone punched you in the stomach right about now! If not you need to let me know so I can explain to you how to better engage your abs! You can count on there being a whole lot more core involved in RiPPEd! We can strengthen and tone but remember core is gonna come down to DIET, DIET, and DIET!

Day 2...Boxing/Sprints & Fat-burner (Back & Biceps)

Hey RiPPEd clients today I am going to test your body in every way possible! Everything we do will require you to push yourself, boxing, bodyweight fat-burners, and non-treadmill timed sprints! I am going to make you exert every last bit of energy you have! The night classes started it off right and took it to absolute failure. They gave 100% effort all the way up to the last second of class! I could see they had physically burnt themselves into the ground, and that is what we are all about at RiPPEd! I guess what I am trying to say is morning classes better be ready to work because the standard has been set! See you bright and early!

Cardio Week!!! Day 1...Treadmills & Fatburner (Chest/Shoulders/Triceps)

Hey RiPPEd Clients its finally here! Time to take your cardio to a whole new level and use your very own body weight to sculpt all that lean muscle you have built in the past three weeks! Have your water bottles by your side because we will not stop moving for an hour straight, our sprints will be fast, our fat-burners more explosive then ever, and our water breaks will be short! We are going go go go people so be ready and get your carbohydrates in a half hour before class!!! We don't want to be cardio junkies who can not do a single push up ,and we certainly don't want to be meat heads who can not do a sprint without falling over. As RiPPEd Clients we strive to do it all and at a extremely high level!!!
