IRON MAN Workout - 2 Times As Evil (but good) as "4 Minutes Of Hell"!

[wardy443]

so what happens if your the 99% of people in the world who cant do more than 3 punch pushups?

[timmy101able]

Wow I really like your decline punches and cyclone squats... But as I asked in another post can you go through the full workout for the full amount of time that?? That way we can follow along at home and not have to pause every few seconds... do that I would probably watch a few of your vids everyday and follow along as my workout... it would be great motivation to have a "trainer" right infront of you pushing you.. your workouts are great and very smart!!

[1phatmaximus]

hi jeff m8 hope alls well with u many thanks for the insperational vids,,i knw ive said b4 but they are great tutorials and it stops boredum,,any way bud u take care all the best Mac

[VitaminZach]

is this afterburn workout good without weights for exercises 2 & 4?

[TheLyfeHersh]

did it an hour ago i cant even move

[TheLyfeHersh]

did it an hour ago i cant even move

[TheLyfeHersh]

did it an hour ago i cant even move

[ZacPloskiFitnessFan]

why do top comments where people make fat jokes get thumbs up? Thats not funny.

[JesseArrr]

Would this be good to do on off days between training or should I do a less weight oriented cardio?

[BryDruid]

killer workout, gonna have to try it when i go to the gym tomorrow, definitely gonna add the MuleKick's into my routine for cardio

[2klatte]

Jeff, would you mind listing the moves and reps in the info bar for your videos going forward? thanks if you do =)

[MrBallChange]

DID THIS TODAY>>> OUCH!!

[Respectmeirespectu]

I actually tried that on 6:10 , and I slipped and faceplanted, my nose hurts as fuck xD

[soccer1213mexico]

@Respectmeirespectu you need alot of upper body strength to do that

[nomamao]

I'm going to try this tomorrow morning... I'll be puking, I'm sure. lol.

[rigoberto19922]

So once i die will i be resurrected???

[KebabTitan]

This man deserves all the credit he gets and more, this workout is literally a KILLER, this guy is seriously fit

[143api]

just made me feel like a sissy ... i did it but im so tired... lol... :p

[suwidji]

hey jeff, i joined your athlean x program and i was just wondering for the conditioning days, do you perform these things only once or a number of times?

For example, I'm replacing a conditioning routine with this iron man one. Am i only supposed to do this once for 8mins and that's my workout for the day, or am i supposed to be doing more?

thanks!

[SaFiUk20]

That is not a work out for armature, but great routine.

[rhdtv2002]

I would guess that if you have some back problems on work out#2 that you can use a physcio ball..

[Leunami02]

@ibanezGio122 try ´´insanity´´ + ATH lean x, its working for me

[JoseAllTheeWay]

woahh

[Bushwacked487]

Those Mule Kicks look like gut-busters. ;)

[IbanezGio122]

Will this workout help me to loose fat ?

[Bushwacked487]

@IbanezGio122 Yes. Its going to help you lose fat in three ways: 1. the exercises are going to burn calories directly. 2. Its going to increase your metabolism for a few hours. 3. Its going to build muscle, which increase your basic metabolism,

[Bushwacked487]

@IbanezGio122 Also, remember your calorie intake has to be lower than your calorie output every day to lose fat. This is part of that formula.

[IbanezGio122]

@Bushwacked487 Thanks mate, ı only have some love handles. (little bit) and tired of doing useless cardios like running for 30 mins and getting no results .

[SvupperZ]

Do you have a different exercise than mule kicks, that would fit into this program?

[REFLECTIVEmotion]

@SvupperZ seeing how mule kicks work the lower abs i would substitute for power curls, or chair leg lifts..

[JiceCPA]

Thanks for thinking of me and for the shot out, numbnuts... even though you still haven't modified your cornball intros, which seemingly get longer each month.

[XxCRACKERxX100]

im f

[vinrod34]

great workout!!

[TheDetoxRevolution]

I think I'll stick to the four minutes of hell :D

[diamonddonut]

that's just defficult, but what the hell. i bought your system Jeff, and tomorrow is gonna be my first day using it. im 12.5% fat now, and i just need it to reach like what..!! let's say 10 is quite enough tho. but wait, the ladder exercises, should i bring something similar to the ladder shape or should i act if there is a ladder already! i mean the movement without no physical ladder shep!?

[PundlaBear]

the squats look more like a lunge

[reallyletsdoit]

Hey guys just so you know if you on the athlean x system use light weights for these workouts because you just did weight training the day before....

just a heads up

[MikeJFord31]

On my second day of Athlean and attempting this since I don't have a rope ladder. ATTEMPTING being the key word

[chezzz33]

@MikeJFord31 u dont need the ladder...i used few pieces of wood...or just use tape, pencils, whatever just to see or to make separate boxes on the floor or ground...the ladder routine was fun :))

[HCL808]

How much weight do you use for the DB reclining punches?

[HCL808]

The Iron Man workout thoroughly kicked my happy ass. Hey JDCav24.. Is it alright to start off at 1 minute per exercise?

[FailEpicProductions9]

Should I do ab workouts after these?

[PatrickBennett7s]

@FailEpicProductions9 There's already an abs exercise in this, so I would say no.

[bboyS0und]

would this also be considered High Intensity Resistance Training?

[PatrickBennett7s]

@bboyS0und Yes

[dadawg618]

how heavy were those plates jeff?

[PatrickBennett7s]

@dadawg618 Aslong as you can hold them there for 2 min it should be good.

[vinrod34]

wow!! great workout, thanks, always looking for ways to do things faster and better results, trying to get 6 pack abs, did p90x,look great, but still no 6 pack abs

[iguanaman07]

is it bad to do this every day or every other day?

[theJmanchannel]

@iguanaman07 Twice a week mate

[iguanaman07]

@theJmanchannel nah man thats too little, i like my food gotta constantly burn fat

[theJmanchannel]

@iguanaman07 lol we have the same problem xD if your tryin to build muscle as well try similar things ( like the kettlebell workout ) cause if you do to much cardio without weights nd stuff ( not nessicarily always together ) you will start losin muscle.

[TheManWithNoShadow]

Ok and how about overtraining ? I see you are working few muscle groups at a time with this workout. So if I do this 2 times in a week i will work out my chest and shoulders at least 3 times a week. So my question is - will my muscles be able to recover ? 

[PatrickBennett7s]

@TheManWithNoShadow Shoulders and chest is really good to workout, since you mostly use them in every exercise.

[Bronzemon]

Awesome workout 

[d3v1lry]

Look at those arms...the fact that you can do 2 minutes of punch push ups non-stop doesn't really do anything to convince me I can =/

[Galtline14]

@d3v1lry LOL

[Angelbikost]

@d3v1lry push ups is about chest power and triceps

not biceps

[XtremeCouture913]

@d3v1lry then start with 1 min. and add like lets say 15-20 secs after you feel that you can do 1 min. with a little more ease

[staticbeepbeep]

@d3v1lry Why not start with 20 pushups instead and later on move to 1 minute followed by 2 mins and so on. You can't really expect to do it if you don't have at least some muscular mass ;).

[guykr10]

@d3v1lry the goal of this program is to push you to your limits not necessarily completing all of the sets. so you need to do as much as you can in a short period of time, in this case, 2 minutes. you dont have to do so much you passout or anything...

[93Dwightfreeney]

i dont know about u guys but my 4 minutes of heaven is waiting in the freezer

[claka]

@93Dwightfreeney what does that even mean?

[defender8314]

@93Dwightfreeney and on your stomach

[ironcladgungrave]

holly cow just did this shit 3 rounds but lowered time down to 30 seconds lol, fuckin sick, tomorrow i'm going for the full 2 minutes

[Jordan47617]

Bloody hell just done this as a substitute for the conditioning days on the program. Great video Jeff :O

[floe2004]

Could you do this more then 2x a week and should you do it before or after the weight training workout for the day?

[vickidickishmicki]

thank you so much for putting up so many effective and creative workouts

[mrkjms0909]

are there other weight training videos that you could combine with this to make a full workout?

[2ndXary]

do you recommend  taking whey protein or mass gainer for these work outs?

[chicanoALbrown24]

he didnt go all the way down for a complete push up

[XxSSjUltimatexX]

Holy shit... and I thought the older Hell video was hard

[turfdancer78]

this burns stomach fat???

[Bakamatsuu]

that shit is hell. bite throught that workout and i was almost a goner for 1 week in pain xD ... hell of a workout

[co0lperson933]

i got a question, on the athlean x program it says we can use this workout as a replacement for conditioning but doesnt this workout seem like it would be working our upper body more than conditioning? and that would be a day after we did upper body? doesnt our body need to rest?

[DJ7164]

man you're awesome, these workouts you create are badass. i think this ones gonna make me throw up lol i love it!!

[Rzorbakfan38]

would it be good to start out with 1 minute each ( 4 mins ) rest 1 min and go for another 4 minutes? or even do 3 or 4 sets of 4 minute intervals with 1 minute rest between?

[LiLgEoRg3]

hey i just started doing workouts so what if i cant do 2 minutes of punch push ups can i do 1 minute? and another thing is that is it free or i have to pay later on your website because im only 17 and i dont have a job and i cant afford it

[LiLgEoRg3]

hey i just started doing workouts so what if i cant do 2 minutes of punch push ups can i do 1 minute?

[markmlim77]

haha....finally gettin it where ur intro can be a lil long winded at times. its aights, ur excersizes shown are worth hearin u do a chin wag. hate to imagine how long winded u be once u get old!

[fishhookspirit]

the cyclone is perfect exercise helps also balance and is being used from the greek disc throwing team..your vids are awesome and helpfull thank you.

[blueleaf1717]

hey jeff great vid, just wondered if it matters that you dont do each exercise in that order.. like is it just as efficeint if you want to start with mule kicks then punch pushups etc can you do it that way?

[bob59847]

i did this for 4 minuets ong

[navyfitness]

Great Video,It's how u train that does it.

Tony

[markinator965]

And how heavy weights should you use for the db recliner punches and cyclone squats?

[markinator965]

2 People who watched this video could not be Iron Men.

[WertherVulgarian]

Jeff, as I couldn't buy a ladder ot do the QFL Workouts I decided to try some of these conditiong workouts. I tryed the Iron Man Workout and, dude, it keeps you 2 steps from the gates of hell!! I have never been out of breath within 8 minutes doing a workout!! Thanks Jeff for doing this amazing program!!

[fuckhaters1000]

Holy shit homeboy is fucking cut!!!! Dude your an inspiration great vids and killer workouts please keep them coming

[mursalat]

xcuse me sir. do u have license to carry those guns..?? ;)gr8 body bro.(no homo lol). and very good videos.. God bless...

[Lordruthstrom]

ooooh, this one was a reeeaal bitch.. my arms and shoulders hurts. BUT IT FEELS SO GOOD!

Great vid Jeff

[josh360878]

I have this cable thingy thats set up on my door, not exactly sure what its called, nor have i used it in awhile.. any ideas of some workouts i can do.. im looking for upper body stuff, thanks

[kmcoakley65]

I like the demonstrations, but is it necessary to keep pulling the front of your pants down?

[romerov002]

OH MAN! This was a killer...reminds me of the rugby days and it is just as effective. I couldn't make it to the gym so I tried this...I'm tired.

[marine984]

hey i see that u even get tired on this can we star doiung 1 minute each for like the first week?

[nexxogen]

Hey Jeff, I heard from some people that once you raise up your heart beat you don't start burning fat for another 15 minutes. Is there any truth to that? 

[stayflyryry]

This guy, is genius! Run for president, lol:)

[theclashroc28]

Would using gloves, make my results slower, should I wear weightlight gloves?

[johnny12204]

How often should  i do this.is it like everyday or every week

[cannavar0]

i`m from Mexico

and your workout is THE WORKOUT

IS AWESOME

kick my ass so hard jajajaja

[abufreh]

this is the best site I've eve knew !!!

[ihatericepaddies]

were do u get those dumbbells and those big super band/resistance bands

[MrZhaba]

Dude your diesel.

I like the fact that you compared your system to P90X. I was thinking of buying the P90X but I will rethink that now. Does your system recommend a weight training routing also?

[drsantiagorios]

Hey man, awesome workout, tough as nails, really kicked my butt with it, managed to finish the 8 mins.

You are doing a great job man, your videos are cool, simple, no complications, just no none sense stuff, that is practical and fun that get results.

Greeting from Quito-Ecuador dude!

[ZombiePanda501]

U call those punvhes u sad man i wanna fite u

[mclive29]

Insane, if u can get through this u have to be in pretty damn good shape WOW!

[SecretAsianMan97]

Would you recommend doing more than one round of this if we don't have weights?

[msk2195]

i see u using those bands a lot and i went to wallmart to find some but i didnt see them..what are they exactly called?

[msk2195]

i have a lot of fat in my lower chest and i have been doing a weight training class in my school where i have been benching for almost 2 months....i dont see any results...what should i do???

[JoeBird76]

@msk2195 Do alot more than just benching. ..To lose the fat do a lil more cardio. Then do decline bench presses, or decline pushups. Go light weight on the bench presses, but high reps. Such at 3 sets of 20 or so.

[Aussie4671]

Hey Jeff im looking at getting your product and have checked out some of your vids. Im a 39 year old ex sport fanatic that is in serious need of conditioning. Two years ago i tore my anterior cruciate ligament and has to have knee reconstruction. WIth this came alot of trouble with hammys however starting to get better now. Ill cut the case, basically this would you suggest for someone starting off again to go straight back into this intensity? I mean 2 minutes would be alot would it not?

[getreferals]

how many rounds should you do of this. Is doing this and the 4 minutes of hell enough cardio for the day?

[knightriders5896]

how long will it take to do get abs if u do that 4 times a week and for 8 mins!

[44871umair]

@JDCav24

wat do u think about interval training on the treadmill, in ur opinion will that lose muscle or fat or both??

thnx

[spideyman12004]

Just did this routine for the first time today. Shoulders are pumped and out of breath. Didn't quite make it to 8min (30 seconds short, but was out of gas). Awesome. Can't wait to start the Athlean program, purchase it yesterday.

[salisfalcon07]

Hey jeff or anyone how do you get those divites around your hips and groin area

[bubbahooper123]

How often should I perform this and the 4 minutes of hell?

[JDCav24]

@bubbahooper123 2x a week is good, along with a weight training routine

[salisfalcon07]

Really hard but good hurt like hell but if i do this i think i will get more endurance

[glasner1982]

wow that was intense. i couldn't do 2 min, but what i did do (1 min) left my shoulders hurting!!

[punanibuzzed]

thats a great workout but what if you are trying to focus on few specific muscle groups? that was more "total body". would you agree?

[salisfalcon07]

Hey jeff or anyone how do you get those divites around your hips and groin area

[Lukeziu]

This is tough and great workout. Thanks a lot.

[TheRealAndrei]

Jeff, I did this workout last night. It was brutal. I was panting like a dog. I didn't even do full 8 minutes. I did this right after my Chest and Tricep work out too... pure hell.

[henrik010]

another great video jeff!!i have ALL your workout videos i think they're fascinating but theres one thing im not sure about ans that is how to put together the workouts?you have the "chest workour" the "tricep workout", "shoulder workout" and all the others..but how should i combine them??thanks and keep the videos coming!!

[helenspring2009]

great workout

[iluvfatchx]

i dont see the big deal with the intro, why are there haters JDCav24?

[lordfridge2]

Great Videos man.

[Anajjar99]

very interesting workout this time!

[Lexii4Teen]

btw Jeff, is it possible to get an 8 pack at the age of 15?

[mrraapsjor]

@Lexii4Teen.....eeeey yes offcourse if you put much work to it!

i am sixteen with a 8 pack... had it wen i was 15 also:)

just work hard:D

pz

[Ashnellamt]

@Lexii4Teen yes is posible

[swat006007]

@Lexii4Teen u could get an 8pack at the age of 6 if u wanted to!

[Lexii4Teen]

@swat006007 woww lol whoever does that is hardcore >_>

[Lexii4Teen]

awesome vids bro. keep em coming. :D

[LG1984]

great video Jeff ! Keep up the good work ! Grtz from Holland

[MrRustyhearts]

Very very thanks for this video.......

[InfernoGoonie]

how many of these circuits would replicate doing an hour of cardio?

[nadagain]

Is this your home gym?

[faceinembryo]

good videos dude, they keep me coming back every week

[gangsterturk25]

Hey Jeff, I was wondering, how many years have you been training now. Because you have a great body.

[SAVAGEfaced]

oh believe me, we don't doubt that you can't do 2 minutes of pushups dude haha

[chubbymedic1]

@mraraonch Man this IS a cardio workut. f you havent tried these or the hell workouts you wont be asking for a cardio workout once you try em.

[ELDEZTINO]

i'm so looking forward to purchasing athlean-x i wanna shock fans when im on stage like you did athletes when you took you shirt off.......lol... good job bro god bless keep it up.....

[Dangerteh2nd]

Everyone exercising...........don't forget to workout the big muscles in your body or you wont see as much improvement in small muscles...big muscles help release testerone.. essential for muscle growth.

[Simplymatt937]

So Is This Considered A Cardio Workout Mainly

[vgt7]

Jeff! i can do about 6 one armed pushups with both arms and im only 16! i just discovered i can do that yesterday

[holyflareman]

Thanks man.

I want to use something heavier than a water bottle,

have any other suggestions?

[TPL1000]

i like your intro its cool

[MrAaronch]

Hey jeff, can you post a good cardio routine please. My abs haven't been looking so good lately.

[chubbymedic1]

Oh and when exactly is TNT going to be released? Im anxious to get a look at it. Im loving Athleanx so far.

[chubbymedic1]

4 minutes of hell isnt a walk in the park lol im not ready to do this yet. Im just getting fair at 3 min of hell lol. Jeff everyone on a forum I frequent is talking about your physique. You need to do one of these vids in shorts so you can show these barbell squat diehards what single leg work does.

[holyflareman]

Is there anyway I can do this workout without weights.I have no weights anymore.:/

[TheFlipE]

hey im the 2010th viewer!!! haha

[MrKevingrace]

it makes the 4mins of hell

look like a walk in the park

[Gazzoy]

Wow my cardio sucks i just followed the amount of time you did it in the video and i was gased afterwards crazy stuff :)

[LLuuuK]

=), nice vid, cool you take the intro-haters not too serious =P...technique wise...how about "elbows in" on the first exercise (punch pushups)?

[JDCav24]

@LLuuuK You know I appreciate all you guys for watching (even the intro haters!). It's all in good fun. Elbows in on the pushups will cause a greater triceps recruitment. Wider will target chest a bit more. Depends upon what your individual goal is.

[holyflareman]

@LLuuuK is there anyway I can do this without weights because I don't have weights no more :/

[LLuuuK]

@holyflareman

it needs just a bit of creativity =)...I hope you have two bottles of water, you will also train your grip because of the bigger diameter...if it's too light, you can fill them with sand or other things...you can also do them without weights, this will be a good workout even without any weight...

[tcevallos]

your workouts are great! but the intro is too loud and long....

[Vladiin]

kicked my ass again, cool stuff

[Bogdyindahous]

it's nowhere near as hard as what I've saw a dude do...for like hours..+ bodybuilders are going to puke if they do this.. :-j

[bobliotech]

I don't think i'm doing any of your workouts right because i tend to fall over/off balance if i try to do anything that you make look so easy...

[guevaraz101]

Thank Jeff , cool video, i would give it try, thanks again for all the tips...

[lhand75]

better than p90

[maleleader]

Thank you for great WO. I read in sherdog forums that making punch movements with DBs is harmful for joints. What do you think about it?

[GuitarDreams1]

Looks good :) thanks Jeff .
