Advanced Fat Loss:  Metabolic Exercise for an Insane Body…by Brad Campbell

Brad Campbell Lean BodyI just filmed this quick video showing my current favorite (and most hated) metabolic exercise.  This compound super movement is the combination of several metabolism-boosting exercises all rolled into one long, gut-checking exercise.

For the guys who want to be ripped like Cam Gigandet and the gals who want a toned body like Jessica Alba, this is where it’s at.

Choose to use this highly metabolic exercise by itself for an entire workout, or combine it with other exercises for a longer, hybrid-like workout.  Either way, you’ll see why this exercise is so powerful after a set or two.

As you can see, I included a few pics I snapped right before doing this workout, “attempting” to showcase the v-taper and devil’s horns that I think really makes or breaks the male’s body.

Like a dummy, I didn’t take any a month or so ago when I was at my all time lowest body fat percentage (thinking I was still peaking)…but with all the traveling and visitors I’ve had lately, what can I say…I’ve put a few pounds of fat back on.

I’ll take some more after I hit it hard for another month, just to show that I practice what I preach and I’m all about living the lean body lifestyle.  You should be too.

Metabolic Exercise for a Cam Gigandet or Jessica Alba Body:

If I were a betting man, I’d put a lot of money on you getting a lean, ripped body if you incorporate this metabolic exercise into your overall workout program.  Why not look exceptional like Cam Gigandet or Jessica Alba?  Set your goals sky high and don’t settle for anything less.

By the way, don’t be hating on my pants (which almost ripped when I was filming an Inner Circle workout) or my total lack of ability when it comes to posing, lol.  Can you tell I’ve never competed before?  Next year perhaps…

    Hey Brad,
    That looks pretty intense! How would you recommend doing the exercise as a workout by itself? I was thinking maybe 8 reps or so then a short rest, then repeat?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Hey Chris – I’m telling ya, it’s brutal. Eight reps is almost perfect b/c each rep takes so long to complete…then a short rest of 30 secs or so and repeat nonstop for 10-15 minutes (that’s if you wanted to do this exercise by itself for a workout).

    Guarantee you’d get more results in 10 mins of this than 90% of the marathon, hour-long workouts ppl are doing out there.

    Let me know how it goes.

    Sorry if this question is off topic.

    Do you have any opinion on guys I’ve seen wearing those weight vests? To me, they seem like a huge waste of money.

    Thanks for looking!

      Hey Marc – agreed. There are much easier ways to use added resistance, without spending a pretty penny. Especially for pull-ups, dips, etc…you can simply grasp a dumbbell between your feet – this really helps to incorporate the abs as well. I’ve never purchased a weight vest and never would. Thanks for the question.

    Hey Randy, thanks man…you get out what you put into it…and although these workouts usually suck, the end results make it all worthwhile. Hope you are loving the Inner Circle.

    Brad,
    I hate/love you for this exercise! Seriously, it’s insane. I only managed two sets of 8 reps with 30 seconds rest, then had to break it down to 4 reps with 15 seconds rest for the rest of the 10 minutes. If this doesn’t help me get my body like Cam Gigandet, well, I doubt any exercise will!

      That’s exactly what I would expect to hear after someone tries out that workout. I incorporated those metabolic exercise into a video I just made for the inner circle, only I had 3 more exercises to do afterward. Let’s just say after completing my sets of this move, I nearly passed out and puked, haha. It was a total struggle to get through the remainder of the planned workout. I’m sure your rear delts, obliques, quads and chest will feel amazing (translation = sore) the next few days. Love this exercise because it hits nearly every single muscle and boosts metabolism like crazy.

      Hey Aaron – by the way, it’s “Brad” (lol)…do you know your current body fat percentage? I wouldn’t get too terribly low at 15 years old…do you play sports? This could have a negative impact on your performance. Let me know…

      Nothing to be ashamed of there – a few more pounds of fat and you’re going to look ridiculously cut up. But that’s IF you can lose some extra fat and not feel run down for track and football. If you do go lower, I’d recommend using a high input/high output approach…meaning still taking in quite a few calories to fuel your workouts and training, then kicking butt during training to burn off extra fat (as opposed to others who just want to lose fat and aren’t competing in sports and thus have no “performance requirements” to account for in terms of calories and carbs, etc).

      I’ll be doing a couple more nutrition posts this week that’ll help you take the Xtreme Fat Loss Diet to the next level. Keep up the great work.

    Thanks man.You have helped me a lot.I just have one more question…why is it bad for you to have a low body fat percentage in sports?

    • Brad Campbell says:

      NO prob…it’s not that it’s necessarily bad – it’s more the fact that it ‘could’ affect performance. In theory, to lower your body fat, you have to be operation at a caloric deficit (taking in less than you’re burning up) – if you’re doing this during sport season, you may find yourself feeling weak and sluggish within your games/track meets, b/c your body doesn’t have sufficient fuel to burn for energy (b/c your fat is low and you’re not taking in many carbs). You could of course avoid this by making sure to fuel your body properly right before these events. I’m just saying it ‘could’ affect performance if you don’t do things right…

    Brad-I just found your pages and I love the info! I’ve just lost 60 pounds on the Medifast plan and I’m looking to get ripped like an MMA fighter. I have no budget for a gym, so I was wondering if you have a routine or tips I can do at home using my body weight or things around the house. Thanks. Eddie

      Hey Eddie – I try to base my entire site around body weight only movements or workouts that can be done from home with almost no equipment. Check out all of the workout posts and I think you’ll find some very useful routines. My partner also has the best body weight only workout system I’ve ever seen. You may not want to fork over the cash if money is tight like you said…but in the future I’d def recommend checking this out: http://bit.ly/GetTacfit

    Hey Brad just wondering if your overweight and you want to build lean muscle under the fat ready for when you burn that fat off, would you reccomend cardiovascular with weight training with high weights and low reps or with low weights but high reps?

    Can you replace the dumbbells with something else?
    &Would I end up getting muscular is I did this? Jessica Alba wasn’t overweight and I need 5-10 pounds off to get her body, so if I did this about 5 times a week would I get her arms?
