If you have an interest in fitness, then you probably have an interest in Marc Fitt. Over the last few years, the twenty-something Canadian has established himself as one of the world’s leading fitness models.

In short, the guy is a bit of a legend.

The Marc Fitt Workout

Having started training with no interest in bodybuilding, Fitt’s obsession with pushing his limits to the maximum has resulting in him having one of the most photographed physiques in the world. Fitt says that his most effective workout involves a high volume of exercises and repetitions. Rest times between each set are minimal – between 45 seconds and 1m 30s – so that a cardio aerobic aspect can be added to training. The idea behind the workout is to ‘feel the burn’ the entire time. For maximum muscle gain, the system works best if it is changed on a weekly basis.

In terms of cardio, while he doesn’t currently do it himself, Fitt suggests sprint interval training as the best kind of workout. This involves, 4-6 30s sprints, with 1-4 minute breaks in between each, over three mornings a week on an empty stomach. This workout will ensure that you will burn more calories and get ripped quicker.

The Marc Fitt Diet

As part of his daily routine, Fitt packs in eight meals a day, consuming food at 2-3 hour intervals. For great muscle development, a high protein, low carbohydrate diet works best.
