You wont ready much on the internet about cardiovascular style training. Mostly because people are always talking about LISS (low intensity steady state) versus HIIT style training. And that's about it. It's pretty boring to hear about and do the same stuff all the time. But in case you didn't know there's another kid on the block. It's a method that combines resistance training and cardio, and unlike any typical circuit style of training you'll have seen before. I've used this method with some of my clients to great effect.
Enter Metabolic Resistance Training, MRT for short.
It's simple, you lift weight fast, non stop, for as long as the entire round of exercises take you, around 1-2 minutes depending on the routine.

Here's an article (part of a series) I wrote around 3 years ago for Myprotein.com. Go back to the first article if you want to find a little more out about the theory, but I thought you'd appreciate me directing you straight to some fun and effective routines you can use in your training RIGHT NOW.
Here's 6 QUICK AND EFFECTIVE MRT WORKOUTS you can use to burn some stubborn body fat fast. There's also a pdf to download at the bottom of the article ready print and to take to the gym. No excuses.
