Fat burning workouts

When you have the motivation to stick with fat burning workouts, they become pretty easy. Combined with eating in a way that helps speed fat burning, they result in a leaner, meaner you. 

Do some sort of aerobic exercise each day for 30 minutes. When your heart pumps more quickly, not so fast it struggles, but enough to make you sweat you’re doing aerobic exercise.  This can include walking, jogging, swimming, stationary bike, and a variety of other activities.  Include intervals into the aerobic work outs.  Periods of higher activity that help boost the metabolism even more are intervals.  For example if walking, run for a minute. 

The health guides that say to perform aerobic exercise three times a week or even five times a week are steering you wrong.  The body needs this work each day.  Pick an exercise routine you can maintain so that you can keep it up seven days a week for the rest of your life. The best time for aerobic activity is before breakfast, so the body burns stored fat.  In addition to this aerobic exercise install a 10-30 minute after lunch or dinner walk to your daily routine.  And keep in mind 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. 

Tone muscles with weight training at least three times each week.  Bigger 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. 

Never skip breakfast, lunch or dinner.  If you do your body thinks that it’s starving, and enters slow metabolism mode.  A slow metabolism is not a friend of fat burning.  Another way to avoid slow metabolism is to make sure to eat enough every day.  For most people this means at least 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 diet.  They don’t have to be difficult.  In fact if it’s too hard you’ll lose motivation and quit the program. Most people make it less than a month with a new workout routine.  Don’t be one of these flash in the pan health enthusiasts.
