Why this order

We start with the Bench Press to hit the largest muscle groups while you are fresh before moving into supersets that pair vertical and horizontal pressing. The inclusion of an iso-split squat press adds a balance and core stability component that increases the metabolic demand of the workout. We finish with high-rep isolation work to ensure complete muscular fatigue.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose my starting weight?

Tonal will suggest weights based on your assessment, but for this fat-loss goal, select a weight that allows you to complete the final rep with only 1-2 reps left in the tank.

Can I use a bench if I do not have one?

This workout requires a bench for the Bench Press and Skull Crushers; if you lack one, you can perform the Standing Chest Press and standing triceps extensions as alternatives.

Should I use any Tonal Weight Features?

Yes, enabling Burnout mode on the final sets of the Standing Chest Press and Skull Crushers will help you reach true failure even as you fatigue.
