An Easy Exercise Program to Help Your Weight Loss

This exercise program's aim is to help you develop an approach to weight loss that will not only improve your endurance but also be much more consistent. What this program will do is remove the excess fat from your body and leave your fluid levels intact and your lean muscle strengthened, unlike so any other programs that mislead you into believing you are burning fat when your weight comes down when you are actually losing water and muscle!

It is advisable that you get a check up from your doctor before embarking on any weight loss program or exercise regime, it is better to be safe rather than sorry and a green light from your doctor will be the mental stimulus you need to get started with your program.

Before commencing any exercise it is imperative to warm up properly by stretching your muscles and warming them up, by doing so you lessen the risk of muscle pulls and post exercise soreness.

Always remember that the saying no pain no gain is out of date! Build your exercises slowly but not so slowly that they are not a challenge. Consistent and moderated is what you should be looking for.

Day 1: Start off with a brisk twenty minute walk, preceded and followed by stretching exercises.

Day 2: Work on your upper body strength today press ups and sit ups would be ideal.

Day 3: Another brisk walk or jog for 10 minutes this time, but also a lower body workout in the evening, squats or a step workout would be great.

Day 4: No exercise today but a set of good stretches would be in order.

Day 5: The fifth day is when we really start; Start with a brisk 10 minute walk then 4 sets of lower body workouts then repeat once again.

Day 6: Low impact exercise day, your choice: Go swimming, cycling whatever you like but it is a good idea to try and do something new or different as this does break up the boredom.

Day 7: Your weekly challenge day, so called because the challenge is to get a friend or a family member to take a long walk with you. The support you will give and receive will set you up for the start of the following week of exercise.

Now you will either breeze this or you will struggle with it, whichever you can adjust slightly until you find a comfortable level for you. One thing you should do though is once you have found that level you should look to increase weekly what you do so your weight loss increases as does your fitness and endurance levels.
