To effectively and easily lose weight, inches, and belly fat fast, you must incorporate an effective cardio workout into your daily exercising routine along with weight training.
In order to lose belly fat with cardio and lose weight with cardio, the exercise must be first something you'll enjoy. Also, the following components makes for an effective cardio workout:
- It must increase your heart rate
- Your perspiration level should be extremely high. Sweating profusely is a clear indication you are burning off belly and body fat.
- You can burn off a significant amount of calories in a short time frame
What two cardio workouts meet that criteria? Incline Treadmill & Basketball.
Simply walking on a treadmill will take forever to effectively burn off fat and lose weight. Running on a treadmill can work obviously, however it can cause joint problems. If you get on a treadmill and set it on a 9-15 degree incline you can burn off up to 1,000 calories an hour!! This is by only simply WALKING at a speed of 2.5-3 speed on the treadmill! You can hop on for just 10-20 minutes and get a powerful workout. Then you can go laugh at the person running and power walking for over an hour!
Another fun and powerful way to burn belly fat and lose weight fast is playing basketball. I'm not talking about on a team, I'm talking about simply playing by yourself for exercise reasons (that kind of sounds sad...but hey, at least you'll be fit!). I'll give you some pointers to get an effective workout playing basketball.
1. Make sure you stretch before playing!
2. Warm up by shooting the ball close by the rim about 20 times to warm up your body.
3. To turn basketball into cardio, do sets of layups (10-50), run and take 2 point jump shots (10-50), and run and take 3 point jump shots (harder to do for most because of the complexity of the shot, but try to take about 10-30 shots).
4. Cool down your workout by going to the free throw line and shoot 15 free throws.
To successfully burn off fat you must incorporate weight training into your workout. Therefore, to eliminate the chances of you losing muscle when you do cardio, make sure you are taking protein BEFORE and IMMEDIATELY AFTER your workouts to assure that not only you're muscles will grow but also you won't burn them off along with body fat by doing cardio!
I wish you the best of success in getting yourself in better health!
