Step 2: Activate As Many Muscles as Possible
Have you ever used one of the weight training machines at the gym?
These machines isolate muscle groups, only working a few muscles at a time.
The problem is that isolated exercises don’t activate enough muscle fibers to directly impact mitochondria or reverse the genetic process of aging.
Complete activation of mitochondria at a level that can impact gaining processes can only happen with total activation of multiple muscle groups.
By working multiple muscles groups simultaneously, you also burn more calories (which means you lose weight faster…if you want to lose weight).
One of the best ways to activate as many muscles as possible (in as little time as possible) is to incorporate an “HIIT” or “High Intensity Interval Training” routine into your schedule.
HIIT training allows you to activate more muscles in less time—sometimes as little as 15 or 20 minutes.
Take a look at Step 3 for more details.
