If you train inhibited you tarnish your results. If you train uninhibited you grow. That is exactly what Hunter Labrada is finally able to do since before winning the Junior USA in 2018 and making it through a painful prep for the NPC Nationals to turn pro November 2018.

 "I am finally hitting full stride and in uncharted territory (in regards to size and training capacity)." The New York pro is the biggest and most prestigious, and on that note, the toughest pro show to win outside of the Arnold Classic and Olympia.

Needless to say Hunter is making a ballsy goal for his pro debut BUT given the fact that he can actually train the way he wants and ultimately needs to train, it looks like he is well on his way to a successful rookie competitive year! Here Hunter drives up to Dallas Texas to link up with the GASP team and CEO for a couple days of catching up. Arms and hamstrings were on his training agenda.


Jim Stoppani's Secrets of Shred: Torch More Fat with Tabatas



Sneaking Tabatas into weight workouts provides all the benefits of HIIT, 4 minutes at a time. Here's how to program them.

Jim Stoppani's Secrets of Shred: Torch More Fat with Tabatas

The cat's out of the bag: Anyone who's been reading up on training for any length of time knows it doesn't take marathon cardio sessions to drop tons of body fat.
In fact, long, slow, low-intensity bouts on the treadmill or elliptical machine are actually an inefficient way to get lean compared to high-intensity interval training, or HIIT.
And as HIIT routines go, none are more efficient for fat loss—and even enhancing cardiovascular conditioning—than Tabata rounds. Incorporate the Tabata protocol intelligently into your training, and you may never go back to traditional cardio.

What is Tabata?

In case you're unfamiliar with the technique, one bout of Tabata, named after the legendary Japanese exercise scientist Dr. Izumi Tabata, consists of eight rounds of 20-second high-intensity intervals of a given exercise, with 10-second rest periods between each. In other words, 20 seconds "on" and 10 seconds "off," times eight, which takes exactly 4 minutes.
That's right, just 4 minutes of cardio can lead to significant fat-burning results, provided you keep the intensity high in all eight 20-second rounds.

What's the Best Way to Use Tabata for Fat Loss?

As simple as the Tabata formula is (8 x 20 sec. on/10 sec. off), there are a number of ways to use it. The most straightforward way is to tack on Tabatas, using exercises such as a stationary bike or other cardio activity, to the end of a lifting workout. Another common practice is to do Tabatas in a completely separate, non-lifting workout.
Both of these methods work fine, but personally, I like to get a little more creative when programming Tabatas while still reaping the same, if not better, cardio and fat-loss benefits. How so? First, by inserting Tabatas throughout a workout, not just at the end or on a separate day altogether. And second, by using Tabatas on "non-cardio" exercises.

As simple as the Tabata formula is (8 x 20 sec. on/10 sec. off), there are a number of ways to use it.
If you love what HIIT cardio does for your body but hate actually doing HIIT cardio, these techniques are for you. You don't have to suffer for more than 4 minutes at a time, you'll never have to even look at a cardio machine, and you'll improve your movement patterns for your weight workouts.
This approach to Tabata is in full effect in my Super Shredded 8 (SS8) program on JimStoppani.com, but Tabatas can also be used in a similar manner in my Shortcut to Size and Shortcut to Shred programs here on Bodybuilding.com.
