Intense Weight Loss Exercise Plans
- In order to reduce the appearance of body fat you have to lower your overall level of body fat. Those with more body fat may find that they are able to shed pounds more easily than someone closer to their target weight. Take this into account, and keep in mind that it may become harder to lose weight the closer you get to your target.
Monitor your diet closely, and carefully regulate your caloric intake. Making meals at home allows you to precisely track the number of calories in your diet. While weight training, you will need to consume more protein to facilitate muscle growth. Limit fats in your diet and begin purchasing fresh fruits and vegetables. Try cutting junk food entirely out of your diet and pantry in order to eliminate cravings. - For intense muscle workouts, resistance training at least three days per week is a tough but necessary schedule to follow. You will work different muscle groups on each day, focusing on two major sets of muscles each time. Also include three days of cardiovascular exercise between these workouts, varying between light and vigorous each day. Rest on the last day in order to give your muscles ample time to recover and repair.
Free weights require you to stabilize the weight while performing the exercise, which requires your body to use secondary muscles in addition to the major muscle group normally involved in the workout. This provides a more thorough workout for the muscles involved.
Focus on compound workouts that target many different muscles to more efficiently exercise your muscles. Overhand pull-ups, inclined bench press and pectoral fly all require you to activate your core to stabilize the weight, indirectly targeting your core muscles.
