With this routine, you’ll immediately follow intense iron work with explosive exercises like pushups and box jumps. By combining both in a back-to-back sequence, you’ll improve your overall athleticism, and speed the fat-burning process.
Weight work and plyometrics will build fast-twitch muscle, but they won’t burn fat. Slow-twitch muscles burn fat - fast-twitch muscles burn carbohydrates and creatine phosphate. The only way the above workout would enhance fat-burning is by raising the heart rate, like low-to-moderate intensity cardio exercise. Once the heart rate is back down to the resting level, metabolism drops as well.
