Exercises for Weight Loss

Exercises for Weight Loss

A proper diet aids in weight loss but only in combination with exercises can one get the desired results. A proper exercise regimen will not only aid in losing weight but will also help in maintaining a healthy and fit body. Even some basic simple exercises will help in achieving the goal. Here are some simple exercises for losing weight. Read on to know about the different exercises for weight loss.

There are lots of light to medium intensity exercises that help you to lose weight easily. We need to understand that weight loss happens through the loss of fat. An individual should choose the exercise through an intelligent balancing of the percentage of fat that you would like to shed and the total calories that you want to burn. Here are some exercises that can help you to shed that extra flab:

Walking

This is by far the most simple and oft overlooked weight loss mechanism. According to trainers, the amount of fat lost through this exercise is around 55%. But this obviously does not entail that you can stroll around to lose weight. The intensity of effort is all that matters. Brisk walking for a long duration can help you to burn calories and shed the flab as well. The most interesting point is that anyone having any sort of health condition can start this exercise with ease.

Light Jogging or Aerobic Exercise

Aerobic classes can do well to people who want to lose weight consistently and fast. Just in a single session a lot of energy gets burnt. There is another advantage in this option. People who are not enough motivated can benefit by joining in and gather motivation by working out with the fitter members of the class. In this exercise the carbohydrates provide the main fuel for the intense workout and it actually pushes the percentage of fat that actually burns down, which can be as low as 30%.

Running

You need to run 7 miles on an average to benefit from this exercise. This will basically help you to burn over 10 calories every minute. Running is a totally different type of exercise that uses up the carbohydrates and results in the building of muscles. Trained runners actually have their muscles evolved to this type of intense exercise and their utilisation of oxygen is much better. This results in their acceleration of their potential to burn their regular fat when they go for a high level of physical exertion.

Sprinting or Weight Training

This falls under the category of anaerobic exercise. Carbohydrates are exclusive sources of energy for this type of exercises. One can lose weight effectively by burning a huge amount of total calories that follows from the repeated performance of the movements in an intense manner. Trainers often suggest short intervals in order to prevent possible muscle fatigue. People often go for aerobic exercises during these intervals.

Alternatively, if you want to lose weight, experts suggest the exercisers to perform aerobic exercise for the entire duration of session so that the total calories that get burnt are much higher. The interesting feature of this sort of exercise schedule is that even after the session is long over, the metabolism level that has increased in the body is still retained. So you stand to lose weight when you are not working too! It is the fat burning potential that is the main beneficiary factor of this exercise program.
