How to Find the Best Weight Losing Exercise for You
And for it work for you, it has to be fun and engage your interest.
You may have to try a number of exercise routines before you find the perfect one for you.
But don't give up, it can be done! Most experts think the main ingredient in choosing an exercise is to choose one that you will keep doing.
If you don't exercise because you hate exercise, then you are lost.
You have to do something to keep yourself moving.
And to do that, why not choose an exercise that is FUN? Doing exercise doesn't have to be a dull laboring chore.
It can be fun, it can be something you almost look forward to every day.
Try something that is both exciting and fun like the Zumba exercise dance program.
Hey, you'll work up a sweat doing the Zumba! Like they say, join the party.
Here's a quick fact to help you keep in mind what you want to accomplish: To lose one pound of fat, you have to burn up 3,500 calories.
If you go just the diet way, that means to lose 1 pound in a week you would have to eat like 5 1/2 meals less a week (assuming your average meal is like 650 calories).
Skip one meal a day, eat your normal 2, (don't up the amount in them).
But if you go the exercise way with no diet involved, you would have to run 6 1/2 hrs a week or do aerobic exercises 9 1/2 hrs per week.
You begin to see why diet alone won't work.
If you want to lose 3 pounds a week, that means you would eat NOTHING all week.
Not likely.
But if you combine exercise with diet, and cut your calorie intake by 1/2 (eat low calorie meals but still eat) and up your exercise to 1 1/2 hours a day, you could lose that 3 pounds a week.
Without suffering.
So if you danced the Zumba an hour or so a day most days, and occasionally jogged, and took the stairs more often, you would be losing a good amount of weight.
If you want quicker weight loss, go to higher intensity aerobic based workouts, such as TurboFire.
(You can't lose weight any quicker by going the diet way, you can't have a negative calorie diet.
Zero calories intake [fasting] is as low as you can go.
) Turbofire and other High Intensity Interval Training workouts are basically aerobic exercises with occasional fast super hard bursts of intense exercise.
They combine the high and the moderate intensities to get your body burning more energy (fat) than it normally would at one steady rate.
TurboFire claims to burn up to 9 times the normal amount of energy than regular aerobic activity.
But it is not really as hard as it sounds as there are a lot of breaks and slower periods of exercise, some days you take off.
Finding a higher intensity workout plan you can do is important if you want to lose weight fast.
Why Most People Quit Their Exercise Plan...
The main reason people quit is because they become bored.
It is all the same, they get tired of it.
They lose interest.
But you don't have to do the same boring thing every day, You can have fun, and still get your exercise.
The programs like Zumba (it has a super interval training sequence in the 4th DVD), and Turbo Fire are fun in part because of their dynamic, pounding and exciting music.
They will keep you entertained.
Zumba says it's like a a party, with wild dancing to heavy Latin beats.
To help from becoming bored, do cross training.
Work on one thing, (like jogging), one day then another thing, like aerobic dancing the next day.
Doing more than one type of exercise keeps you interested.
Choose Exciting Weight Loss Exercises If you really want to lose weight choose something that will be fun.
By doing Turbo Fire with it's faster calorie burning, you actually don't have to put that many extra hours into exercise per week.
You can start as low as 50 minutes a week and still be losing weight.
You may have to try different exercise programs to find the perfect one for you, the one you enjoy and you can fit into your busy schedule, but it will be worth while in the end as you become more fit and drop those pounds.
In short, it's harder to do nothing and become more and more disgusted with yourself than it is to dance your cares away and become thrilled with yourself and your new healthy body.
