Hy Zuzana,
first of all I have to say that the new look of your site is great!! Second thing; I suppose we have to do some cardio before this exercises to warm up? And also, would you recommend doing cardio after these exercises (after all 5 parts), or for 3 min between each exercises, or even separate them as different exercises ( cardio in the morning and these exercises in the afternoon) ? The thing is that all of your exercises,especially new ones, are so intense and well structured that I suppose they are all combination of cardio and weight, but I’m not an expert, and it seems that you know your stuff ;) ,so it makes me wonder for which of them I have to do additional cardio?
Keep up the good work!!
Jessie

hi zuzana,,

i really enjoy your exercises ,,
they are really very result oriented,,
thank you zuzana your reaaly the best :-D
love ya :-*

Hi Zuzana: I’m a bit confused. You state that an oxygen debt will increase the burning of fat. It is my understanding that an oxygen debt early in the exercise routine will burn more muscle than fat as the metabolic path way for burning fat is very complex and requires some time to kick in. I read that your body will burn the branch chain amino acids in you muscle for fuel if your body needs quick energy,thus a long slow burn is best. You are obviously an expert on this as I can see the results and I must say the results are remarkable. Have I been under the wrong assumtion all these years? My best Gene

great video , nice change of scenery! was this the biginning of your work out that day or did you warm -up first? your muscles look as though they had already had a work out and you look pumped!

Love your exercise routines!

HI David L.,
I did not warm up for this workout. I don’t warm up before every workout and sometimes passive warm up like hot shower for example is enough.

Looks like a routine that anybody could get results from.

Hello Zuzana , I weight 131.2 kilos and find now that find it really getting me down. I would like to lose some of the weight I know I won’t lose it all. I was hoping if you can suggest a workout that would help me lose weight and would give me a general workout.

can exercise help stretch marks? my wife is very ensecure about her stomach because of stretch marks from having a baby. could ab exercises help this? I know it wouldnt cure them but maybe help.

Zuzana, when I do woodchops, I don’t feel the strain on my abs. Instead, I feel the strain intensively in my arms. Am I doing anything wrong?

Thanks for the vid. Nice shoes btw :)
Just a quick question, what exercises should I do to burn more fat?

thanks again

Z,
Another wonderful video. I’m thrilled to see your living room and feel honored to be invited in. I appreciate your instruction and motivation all wrapped together with consistency! You are awesome.

Hi Zuzana,

you seem to have gotten even more defined and developed since your last video. Are you working out double time to kick Archfiend’s backside? How is that progressing? You look great!

This sumo chop exercise looks lethal :-) I have seen a variation of this exercise where one stays in a squat and jumps backwards 1/2 a metre when the ball goes up, then forward a metre when the ball goes forward. In this variation the ball does not go lower than waist level and it goes back a little behind the head. 20 – 30 reps. The squat itself does not go quite as low and the toes point a little more foreward. The body moves like a hinge and the power comes from the hips. If your not already familiar with this form, would you be so kind as to try it and let me know what you think about it?

Best to you :)

Thank you for such an informative site!

I have a question: You published your body fat calculation in February 2009 according to this website. In this video, you look noticeably cut (congratulations on your progress – it’s very inspiring). Would you be so kind as to update the body fat calculation section of this site to give us an idea of your progress since February 2009?

Zuzana, your arms are killers! And beautiful new site layout!

In regards to Gene’s comment, I’ve read conflicting information that’s suggested “slow burn” (such as long runs) actually increases the amount of cortisol in your body- and it is this type of excercise that breaks down lean muscle mass.

Well, I guess the best thing to do is just balance both intesities of training, right? Can’t do HIIT everyday now- it hurts! :)

Anyway, I’m looking forward to the rest of this workout!

Hi Zuzanna and Frederick! The new site layout is great and videos well done! This is a very valuable source of information and I will be including a link on my site to share what you are offering. Keep it up and well done!

Hello!

I´ve been checking your articles and vidoes on your website for approximately one month and I must say that I like it very very very much. :)
Before that I was only jogging and didn´t like weight lifting…but now I am following and doing your exercise routines… And I absolutely love it!!! :)

Can´t wait for remaining 4 parts of Full Body Blast Workout!!

Hi
I love your website. Where is part 2,3,4, and 5 I cannot find them on your site. Also can you visit my site? i have pictures of me on there and was wondering if you could tell me if i can look like you if i follow your program. I am very thin however i want muscle defition especially my abs.

thanks

Mina

Hi Zuzana,

I just found your website and I find it fantastic and hopefully a place I will be motivated to come back.
Are your workouts specifically geared to women?
I am impressed by how much you sweat. I cannot never workout to the level where I can get a good sweat. I get too tired. That is why I like Bikram Yoga, which is done in heated room. Do you heat your room?
Are your programs recommended for overweight people?
Finally, your accent is very nice, what nationality are you? ( I hope you don’t mind me asking)
Thanks and God Bless

Hi Zuzana

Great video, just the other day in circuit training we did a variation of the plank and sumo wood chops, tho will try your out. Have you ever used the TRX suspension trainer?

ahoj zuzi, moc ti držím palce v tomhle směru jsi se fakt našla. stranky jsou perfect a ty taky!! i já v tobě nacházím motivaci, musím se do toho obout ted jsem moc pěkná matka pluku(mám 14kg jěšte na shazování)( máme chlapečka Jirku je to mazel má už 3apul měsíce) at se daří dáááál denisa Ps pozdravuj manžu a klidně pisni jak je

Jessy,

this workout is new, so we haven’t updated all the parts yet (there are 5 parts in this workout total).

Hi Zuzana,
I tried this exercise and the blank one was hard, but I will not give up)))
I wanna ask please, sometimes I see that you do Cardio among sets, and now you just said that you do not warm up before all work out.
why Cardio is important between sets? & Which exercises I can use cardio with?
Thank you)
Ramy

this is a great work out. it’s funny because i see your videos and i think to myself ‘this is easy’ but once i get in the gym it’s like that dam zuzana got me again. keep it up..can’t wait for the other parts of the video. great body by the way!!! i could only dream lol

HI lucky,
I’m glad you like the exercises ;)

Hi Zuzanna,

I’m impressed with the results you’re gettiing; you’re so much bigger! Quite amazing what 20mins a day can do! Has your quest been all about putting muscle mass on? What was your initial fat percentage, if I may ask? You seem very lean even in your earliest videos. Also, could you tell me what your cardio routine is, do you do cardio every day? Do you run?

Thanks!

Zuzana,

Do you make DVD’s for home use? We would really like to get a hold of something like that.

Hi Benjamin and Nicole,

we are planning to make dvd’s in near future.

Zuzana,

You are looking great! Definition is even better than before! You’re about ready! Nice series too!

Congratz,
Akulas

YOU MOTIVATE ME!!! I don’t even know how I stumbled across you (maybe it was 5min.com) but I am glad that I did. You truly motivate me to continue inspiring others about the benefits of fitness and the many different exercises to improve the lives of others!

~Alvin

P.S. I am a trainer too and you have truly inspired me to go above and beyond in changing peoples lives through fitness! Keep up the amazing work! Maybe we can have a one arm pushup challenge…I at 20 reps right now! lol =) ~wOrLd’S cOoLeSt ChIpMuNk =)

Tried the Summo Woodchops yesterday at the gym. Looks easy, right? I used 20lb dumbbell. After about 6 or 7 I started to feel it. Finished first set slightly winded, but feeling very good. Finished second set slightly more winded, still feeling strong. Did a third set, much more winded. Feeling strong though with a good solid feel like I worked esp my stomach, back and arms.

Today I am sore all over. In a good way. Awesome.

Thanks Alvin :)

Zuzana,

Is Part 1-5 done all at once on the same day? Or is Part one for Monday, Part 2 for Tuesday ect. I am confused! Thank you!

Ariel

Hi Ariel,

the 5 parts are 1 whole workout for one day. Every workout on the site is divided in more videos.

HiZuzana,
I would like so much to attend at your classes,if there is any,i like very much your workout,is perfect,please let me know.
best wishes
bahar

Hi Zuzana,

Will the toes have to be pointing right in front, or slightly away?

Hi Angeline,

your toes should be pointing slightly outwards.

Good workout! Any kind of plank work is great for core work. And the sumo chops WOW! Do you have others?

Zuzana~I did 2 sets of this entire workout morning & evening; really works legs (mine need the work)+ shoulders! I used a 10 lb weight for all the squats but I wonder how many lbs is your med. ball? Looking forward to new posts, Happy Halloween!

Hi Zuzana…I think this is absolutely Amazing what you are doin…how do I go about getting a body like yours…its extremely athletic & toned looking.???

Hi Zuzana,
yes another New Years resolution to get fit this year but this year, I have decided that I need to follow through with it as no one else is going to do it for me!!! Your site is truly motivating and I’m truly excited about the new body I will get this year from following your techniques. I started this workout yesterday and I could hardly get out of bed this morning. I grinned and told myself, no pain no gain! Had a rest today as I wouldn’t have been able to lift the medicine ball but I’m looking forward to giving it a crack tomorrow after a good warm up!!! Cheers girl :)

Hi Zuzana
I am 14 years old , and i am really out of shape, i am not fat just really out of shape.i would really like to work out
more just that i dont really have much time to really commit myself to it. so my question is what workout routine works best me, just that it doesent include any equipment but light weights.
thank you!

Hi Mauro,
Most of our workouts take only between 15-30 minutes and require only the space around your body. Jump in and start following our daily workouts – do your best and stick with it and you will see improvements start to happen quickly.

I just noticed the little dog on the couch! Its actually watching you work out haha how cute!
Love your videos :)

I always watch your videos on youtube everytime a new one comes out our really great

How many rounds of the Full Body Blast did you do?

Hi Zuzana!
You are an inspiration! I have noticed results in just a few days!! I have a great deal of difficulty maintaining balance with the plank and sumo woodchops… My hands really hurt while I’m doing them. How am I doing it wrong?
Thanks!
-Melissa

hi zuzana…….thx a lot for these awesome videos….are these workouts effective for guys??????? how about warmups & stretches?????? hoping for a reply asap…..thanking you in advance

hello ,
I’ve been doing the whole set of exercises of the full body blast workout, 3 times in a row.
i’m sweaty and feel i have worked out well. What i liked the most in this workout was that by focusing on the form i was doing it slowly and could really feel my muscles.
Thanks

hi zuzana,I has the number of questions here … what an appropriate exercise to lose fat in the neck?
Every time I do exercise my legs will feel muscle pain? the most appropriate exercises to relieve pain?

norlly

This looks like something even a person just starting out can do.
