The perfect workout to lose fat is one that takes advantage of every last mechanism that exists to burn calories, increase metabolism, and build lean muscle. Burning the maximum amount of calories during training, increase metabolism after the training and causing absolute microtrauma to the muscle fiber (you have to break down the muscles so they rebuild stronger, which in itself requires a lot of calories to fuel the process – not to mention the additional calorie burn that will take place on a daily basis, thanks to the new lean muscle), your fat loss “force” will go into overdrive.
So what type of fat loss training affects each of these fat burning mechanisms to the greatest and longest possible extent? Well, I like to call those workouts my fat loss blast routines, but they’re actually a complex combination of cardio, weight training, plyometric training, and body weight training. Here’s how I create fat-loss exercises that are “certified for slim waist”:
Fat Loss Workout Requirement #1:
Begin the workout with a total bodyweight workout. Simply put, this is more demanding and requires maximum energy levels, which is why I like to start with weight training. After a full warmup, complete an intense circuit, super set, quad set, or straight set with super short rest periods (30 seconds or less). Train like a maniac, making sure to engage all muscle groups, for a short but very intense fifteen minutes.
Fat Loss Workout Requirement #2:
Follow your intense fifteen minutes of weight training with some cardio work to crack down on metabolism and tear through deep, hard-to-reach fat stores. If you are concerned about losing muscle mass, I recommend ingesting 20-30 grams of whey protein mixed with water before beginning the cardiovascular portion of our fat loss workout.
The cardio session can last between 5 and 45 minutes, depending on your fitness level and how quickly you would like to see results. Choose to follow a demanding bodyweight circuit mixed with plyometrics, or you can do interval cardio outdoors or on cardio equipment. I prefer to start my clients with an intense 6 minute combined bodyweight and plyometric circuit and then progress weekly from there.
If you’re a relative beginner and your fitness level is lower, you may need to engage in steady cardio until you’re ready to work at a higher intensity level. Start with 5 to 10 minutes of light jogging or walking on an incline and progress weekly from there, starting with an increase in intensity and then moving to a longer duration.
Fat Burning Workout Requirement #3:
Work to get fitter. Don’t think about weight loss when you approach your workouts. Instead, focus on getting in better shape, getting stronger, tougher, and more explosive as the weeks go by. When you train for performance, your body is forced to lose fat, tone muscle, and sculpt your body.
This is exactly why high-performance athletes have such dynamiting physiques: By designing your workouts to improve your skills, a lean body with a slim waist is simply an amazing byproduct of a different motive.
Fat Loss Workout Requirement #4:
Train as hard as possible, without overdoing it. This is a slippery slope because is It is possible to overtrain and therefore diminish your weight loss results, especially when fat-storing stress hormones such as cortisol are released.
Having said that, most people are not working anywhere near the level they should be. Losing body fat is an easy concept, but very hard work. And it gets even harder as you make improvements, thanks to your body constantly working against you to keep things in “normal order.”
The only way to get around these obstacles to fat loss is to trick your body with advanced training tactics like these. and be sure to increase your intensity and challenge yourself more and more.
Take these fat loss training requirements and combine them into a program that fits your abilities and preferences. By doing this, you will surely be training in a certified way for slim waist.
