The High Density Exercise Routine for Weight Loss Without Muscle Loss

If you're looking to lose weight but still hold onto muscle mass, this is the workout you need. It's called the high density exercise routine – each day concentrates on a different density lift coupled with cardio and core exercises to keep your muscles bursting while you lose inches off your waistline.

This is an excellent program for bodybuilders because it's a cutting cycle that still features a strong max weight lift, increasing vascularity and muscle tone without the need to ever touch a treadmill. Cardio is fantastic for weight loss, but it's not the best thing in the world for building bulk, needless to say.

This exercise routine for weight loss looks something like this:

-Start with 5 minutes of dynamic stretching and warmup to raise your heart rate and get your muscles stretched out for the workout ahead.
-5 minutes of a specific exercise warm up. If your density exercise is going to be bench presses, for example, do some warm ups with lower weight.
-A 10 minute core workout routine
-Density workout
-End with 5 minutes of cool down and stretching

The density workout will be different each day to target a different muscle group.

Day 1- Squat
Day 2- Deadlift
Day 3- Bench press

During this high power weight loss workout, do each exercise one after the other. Rest in between sets, not exercises.
