Festive Season: Exercise For Women Who Desire Beautiful Bodies
Getting rid of all that extra fat is the answer to your problem, whether you want to lose weight or just get a better body. You can get to your goal in a lot of different ways.
You can go on a diet or work out. But none of that will help in the long run.
You’ll be better off in the long run if you do both of these things.
Your main goal should be to make it a habit you look forward to instead of something you dread.
So you want a perfect body? Let’s go to the first step, which is to move.
Yes, get up and move around. Make it a habit to exercise every day, but the most important thing is to get rid of all that useless fat.
THE 3 F’S -FIGHTING FAT FAST
1) HEART
Let’s start with cardio, which is the fastest way to see the results of all your hard work. It is by far the most effective way to burn fat, and it also speeds up your metabolism.
Cardio obviously includes running, cycling, and swimming, but you can also go horseback riding, dance, or even play squash if you don’t like those boring activities.
But do include running in your activities. Yes, it can get boring, but once you start to notice a change in your body, you’ll start to enjoy it. Plus, you can run anywhere and at any time, and it doesn’t cost anything.
2) USE OF WEIGHTS
So, basically, this is how weight training works: the stronger your muscles are, the more energy they need to work properly, which means you burn fat.
Now that we know how important they are, some of us just want a good body and not muscle. This is something that a lot of people think, but lifting weights won’t make you into the Hulk. Instead, it will just tone your body.
Here are some ways that you could do that.
Exercise 1: Leg press
Works your bottom, your thighs, and your lower abs.
To:
-Adjust the seat and make sure that when you recline, your thighs are in line with the footplate.
-Keep a foot’s width between your feet and push your feet as hard as you can into the plate.
-Make sure your legs are completely straight but DON’T lock your knees at the top.
Bend your knees and lower the weight until it is just above the stack.
-Make sure to say each of these 10 times.
(Start with a lighter weight and work up to a heavier one.)
Exercise 2: lateral pull downs
-works your chest, back, biceps, and lats.
In order to:
-At your gym, use the long bar. Get a good hold of it with both hands. Make sure your palms are facing forward and your hands are about 2 to 3 inches from the center.
-Lean back a little bit and make sure your arms are straight, your chest is up, and your abs are engaged. Once you’ve done that, pull the bar toward your chest.
-hold for a second or two, and then slowly move it back to where it was. Do this exercise 10 times, and if you can, do it twice.
3) COMBINATION EXERCISES
What are exercises that you do together? It is just what the name says it is.
It’s a mix of aerobic and strength training. These help you get the most out of your workout and are great in all ways.
-Stand with your knees slightly bent and your chest facing forward. Lean out 45 degrees and make sure your elbows are by your sides.
-Bring the dumbbells toward your chest to work your biceps, and then immediately stretch your arms back to work your triceps.
-Keep your elbows close to your sides and squeeze your muscles the whole time.
Exercise 2: Squat while extending your triceps up over your head.
This will tone most of your lower body and your arms.
In order to:
-Start this workout by squatting down and putting your glutes back. Grab your dumbbell and hold it behind your head with your elbows almost touching your ears.
-Push up with your heels and reach your arms up to the ceiling at the same time.
-Now, slowly lower the dumbbell back down as you get back into a squatting position.
-It’s important to keep your chest up for the whole exercise.
(Start with a lighter weight and work up to a heavier one.)
Try all of these exercises for at least 3 hours a week to reach your goals.
These workouts are needed in order to be fit to celebrate this year’s Christmas.
