What Is A Good Fitness Workout For Fat Loss?

Swimming, running, and biking are some of the best forms of fat blasting workouts. Find a pool, a bike, an elliptical trainer, or a treadmill and work out for at least 30 minutes 4-6 days a week and watch what you eat. Fat burning workouts are pretty simple, as long as you have the motivation to stick with them. Combined with eating in a way that helps contribute to fat burning, they result in a leaner, meaner you.

Do some sort of aerobic activity each day for 30 minutes. Aerobic exercise is exercise that gets your heart pumping faster but not so fast that it struggles or you're gasping for breath. Walking, running, swimming, even some types of yard work are aerobic exercises. Include intervals into the aerobic work outs. These are bursts of higher activity that help boost the metabolism even more and periods of higher activity that help boost the metabolism even more are intervals. That means run between periods of walking, or burst to speed while swimming at an steady pace.

It's wrong to think exercise is only three to five days a week. Don't believe it. The body needs this work each day. For an activity to perform every day, make sure it's something not too hard. The best time for aerobic activity is before breakfast, so the body burns stored fat. Add an extra 10-30 minute walk after lunch or dinner to this exercise routing, in addition to the 30 minutes. And remember that life is full of other opportunities to move, whether it be parking further from the store for a little walk or raking the leaves instead of blowing them.

Do simple weight exercise three times a week. Toned muscles make your metabolism speed into overdrive. A faster metabolism means burning more calories, and thus more fat, even when you're simply performing routine, day to day activities. You'll also feel better and look better just because of the toned muscle. The key to starting an exercise routine is to make the changes slowly. You can’t go from being sedentary to active overnight and hope to succeed. Start out by exercising 1-2 times per week and eventually moving up to 3-5 times per week. Only increase the amount of exercise you do per week when you feel ready.
Don't skip any mormal meal like breakfast, lunch or dinner. Doing so drops your body into starvation mode where it burns calories more slowly. A slow metabolism is the enemy of fat burning. Another way to avoid slow metabolism is to make sure to eat enough every day. For most people this means consume a minimum of 1200 calories each day. Any fewer and your body drops into starvation mode, working against your efforts to burn fat.

Results are pretty amazing when fat burning workouts combine with healthy eating. They don't have to be hard. Too hard is bad because when a work out is too hard people stop doing it. Too many people get gung-ho on working out after Christmas, or just before the summer beach season, but don't even make it for a month before the difficult workouts ground them into quitting. Don't be one of these start and quit health enthusiasts.
