Cutting Workout

Shredded Bodybuilder
The following workout is designed to help you lose fat and gain muscle. Even though some people say its impossible to gain muscle while losing fat I say the contrary. With a good diet you can cut fat and gain a little bit of muscle. Be careful though because if you don't eat right you will lose a large amount of that hard earned muscle. 
Notice how this workout mostly consists of doing 7 sets per exercise. The reason for this is so that you burn more calories, while actually tiring out your muscles. This will help you build stamina and increase your metabolism. 
 

For the cardio sections, you can either run or walk depending on how fit you are. The idea is that you actually do it. Of course, if you can run what I recommended  then it means you're a lighter person and are a bit more fit.
