There are many types of exercises to lose weight. Some of them
are more suitable for an advanced trainer, whereas some are suitable
even for beginners. Among these exercises, some are more effective,
while some are less effective. I do not see the point in performing
exercises which yield only minimal results, and that you should only
focus on performing exercises which actually strips fat as quickly as
possible from your body.
The first exercise will be interval cardio training. It involves running, but is vastly different from regular jogging because of several reasons. It is a form of exercise, where you run for a predetermined period of time, and jog at a somewhat leisurely pace right after that for another predetermined period of time. The amount of time spent running is usually half of that spent jogging.
To take a simple example, you will be sprinting for one minute, then jogging for two minutes. You should find a preset level of running intensity such that you will be testing your body's potential without over-exerting yourself. You should perform as many sets of the above until you feel like you are not able to proceed with the exercise anymore. Interval cardio is great not only for improving your running abilities, but also for stripping away fats from your body quickly!
The next exercise is actually a body weight exercise circuit. Let me first explain why I recommend this. Body weight exercises require us to make use of the stabilization muscles, which is not activated when we use machines in the gym. Also, it builds functional strength, and is generally easy to perform with less chances of injury. At the same time, it strips fats from our bodies very quickly as well! With that said, there are slight differences in the type of exercises to be performed within the circuit for men and women due to the variation in difficulty of the exercises.
For the ladies, you will be performing push-ups, incline pull-ups, and squats. You should ideally perform twenty to twenty-five repetitions of each exercise, back-to-back within each set. If you are not able to perform that many repetitions, fret not, and start from a lower number such as ten. This body weight exercise circuit should be performed for at least three times. If you are more advanced, you can do more.
For the men, you should do push-ups, pull-ups and squats. You should aim to perform about thirty repetitions of push ups and squats in each circuit, and about four to eight sets of pull ups. Repeat this circuit for three times. You can increase the intensity as your strength increases.
Remember, before and after completing the above exercises, always perform warm up and cool down exercises respectively.
