How Larissa Raisa trains edit edit code
Pro-Status Project
: Larissa, how often do you train?
Larissa Rice
: I go to the gym or on the treadmill six times a week and devote one day entirely to rest from physical activity for recovery.
Pro-Status Project
: Are there any differences in training during preparation and in the off-season?
Larissa Rice
: The only difference is the amount of cardio. I cut back on my cardio in the off-season. My cardio is very varied: I exercise on an exercise bike, run sprints, swim in the pool and do functional training using my own body weight, you can call it plyometrics.
Lately I've been enjoying boxing, it's a great workout for fat burning. I practice boxing with an instructor.
At the moment I am trained by Dewey Cooper (two-time world champion in 2000 - Translator's note). I have a brown belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, but I recently took up boxing, so don’t judge too harshly.
Pro-Status Project
:Describe your training cycle.
Larissa Rice
: I do a lot of cardio now, so my split may seem unusual to some.
- Monday. Cardio on an empty stomach in the morning. In the evening, a hard leg workout.
- Tuesday. Functional plyometric training on an empty stomach. In the evening boxing training.
- Wednesday. Cardio on an empty stomach. In the evening, back and abs training.
- Thursday. Functional plyometric training on an empty stomach. In the evening, training on the treadmill at the stadium. Sprint.
- Friday. Cardio on an empty stomach. In the evening, workout for shoulders and abs.
- Saturday. Boxing training.
- Sunday. Day of rest.
I’m not trying to gain more muscle mass, the existing volume is enough for me. For example, on back day I do 9 different exercises, split into 3 circuits, so everything is done in a superset with no rest between exercises.
Back workout
. Example of one approach:
Lat Pulldown - 25 reps to failure. Then, without a pause, I perform horizontal block rows for 20-25 repetitions until failure and finish the approach with a bent-over barbell row for 20-25 repetitions.
I do 3 sets, doing different exercises in each set. The result is an intense workout that ensures full development of all back muscles. Of course, all my workouts are accompanied by sports nutrition.
Before starting cardio, I take Lipo6 and Amino Drive. The fat burner helps you wake up and speed up your metabolism, and a portion of amino acids is responsible for preserving muscle tissue.
Before strength training I take Outrage pre-workout complex. Immediately after exercise I take the Muscle Infusion protein shake. I also take a serving of protein shake before bed.
