Get Six Pack Abs Sooner With A Meal Plan

<strong>Your six pack abs won't show if they are covered with a layer or layers of fat! While you're building up those ab muscles, you need to burn ab fat at the same time. You can only do that by following a healthy meal plan.</strong><br /><br />You can start with eating your daily servings of fresh fruits and vegetables. I've never heard of anyone getting fat by eating too many fruits and veggies. Next, cut out ALL SUGARY DRINKS. Drink only water or unsweetened drinks like tea. If you will do just those two things, you will be well on your way to shedding body fat on your abs and whole body. <br /><br /><strong>So, how much food do you need to eat every day? You have to achieve a caloric deficit (burn more calories than you consume) for the day to <a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/2010/04/lose-weight-safely.html">lose weight</a> and burn fat.</strong> <br /><br /><strong>Set your daily caloric intake based on your <a href="http://www.yourfitnessuniversity.com/medicalissues.html">basal metabolic rate</a> and your activity level (including exercise). This way, you won't eat too much or too little.</strong> Maintaining the right amount of <a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/2007/10/caloric-deficit-is-needed-over-time-to.html">caloric deficit</a> is the key to burning fat and losing weight.<br /><br /><strong>If your basal metabolic rate is 1800 calories a day, 1000 calories of food intake is not enough food for you to function properly!</strong> This type of calorie restriction will cause your body to shift to survival mode and store fat. Your body will also be a total wreck if you do this too much! <br /><br />So, if you eat 1800 calories and burn 2200-2300 calories a day (through movement and exercise), you will lose weight and burn ab fat and total body fat.<br /><br /><strong>Eat foods as close to their natural state as possible. For example, a baked potato would be better than french fries.</strong><br /><br /><strong>Here are some do's and don'ts when it comes to the replacement method of eating:</strong><br /><br /><strong>Cut out these types of foods:</strong> sodas, sugary fruit juice drinks, candy, cookies, donuts, fried meats and fried foods, fast foods, ketchup, mayonnaise<br /><br /><strong>Add these types of foods:</strong> oatmeal, quinoa, nuts, low-fat dairy products, low-fat yogurt, fruits, veggies, unsweetened tea, water, lean meats (baked, broiled or grilled), olive oil, cinnamon, mustard. <br /><br /><strong>Uncover those hard-earned six pack abs by burning the fat covering them!</strong><br /><br /><strong><a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/p/lean-body-and-six-pack-abs.html#.UfUd09LqmuI">Get FREE Training and Nutrition Insider Secrets for a Lean-Body with Six Pack Abs</a>!</strong> This ebook, created by Certified Nutrition Specialist & Certified Personal Trainer, Mike Geary, details over 27 specific metabolism-boosting secrets that you can use to strip off your stubborn body fat faster and easier and get your six-pack abs!

Get Six Pack Abs Sooner With Hanging Leg Raises

<strong>Build your six pack abs sooner with the hanging leg raise exercise. It is an advanced abdominal exercise.</strong><br /><br /><strong>There is a reason you see more people doing ab crunches instead of hanging leg raises! The hanging leg raise and its variations is very tough to execute.</strong> In fact, it is the gold standard for abdominal exercises! Gymnasts have been doing hanging leg raises for decades. A person needs <a href="http://sportsfitnesshut.blogspot.com/search/label/Article%20Series--Core%20Training">core strength</a>, arm strength and grip strength to perform the exercise correctly.

Hang from a bar using an overhand grip with arms straight and shoulder-width apart. Let your legs hang straight down.<br /><br />2. Contract your abs and make sure that your back remains neutral with natural arch. Keep your head still and looking straight ahead. Raise your legs to the midpoint of your body using your abdominal muscles. Don't swing your legs up and use momentum to do the exercise. This is a controlled strength exercise.<br /><br />3. Hold for 1 to 2 seconds and slowly lower your legs. That is one repetition.<br /><br />Beginning exercisers can start by trying to bend the knees up to the chest. Intermediate exercisers are able to do a straight leg raise up to the midpoint of the body. Advanced exercisers can usually raise straight legs up to the head or "windshield wiper" bent knees to the left and right.<br /><br /><strong><a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/p/lean-body-and-six-pack-abs.html#.UfUd09LqmuI">Get FREE Training and Nutrition Insider Secrets for a Lean-Body with Six Pack Abs</a>!</strong> This ebook, created by Certified Nutrition Specialist & Certified Personal Trainer, Mike Geary, details over 27 specific metabolism-boosting secrets that you can use to strip off your stubborn body fat faster and easier and get your six-pack abs!

Don't scrape the ground with your shoes as they run forward.</strong> And, don't let your glutes "sag to the ground" when you are fatigued. <br /><br /><strong>If you feel low back pain when doing mountain climbers, stop immediately.</strong> It is impossible to do this exercise the right way if you have a bad back. <br /><br /><strong>Include mountain climbers more in your workouts and you'll get your six pack abs sooner!</strong> <br /><br /><strong><a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/p/lean-body-and-six-pack-abs.html#.UfUd09LqmuI">Get FREE Training and Nutrition Insider Secrets for a Lean-Body with Six Pack Abs</a>!</strong> This ebook, created by Certified Nutrition Specialist & Certified Personal Trainer, Mike Geary, details over 27 specific metabolism-boosting secrets that you can use to strip off your stubborn body fat faster and easier and get your six-pack abs!

Get Six Pack Abs Sooner With Isometric Exercises

<strong>You need to do isometric core exercises to get your six pack abs.</strong> This is a surprise to many people. Isometric core exercises build up the deep stabilizing muscles and give tone to your entire core area. Isometric exercises help you build strength and burn fat without moving much.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieJ3a3l0y4y3iFDods74WOAhVenemPaPsdDACqLgLuOcUOg8WON14n1YqsgnVAUr1eixs35gTWLCxj_p525cWLdhfj9qcjFyyaduyWoU_ygj9hq2BxzOJeHOyGkK6zAWU-SYIcLu0C9acM/s1600-h/ball+plank.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5434201430451608514" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieJ3a3l0y4y3iFDods74WOAhVenemPaPsdDACqLgLuOcUOg8WON14n1YqsgnVAUr1eixs35gTWLCxj_p525cWLdhfj9qcjFyyaduyWoU_ygj9hq2BxzOJeHOyGkK6zAWU-SYIcLu0C9acM/s320/ball+plank.jpg" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 216px;" /></a><br /><br /><strong>Isometric exercises are very underrated. They are great for building muscles, stabilizing muscles, building strength, improving power and burning fat.</strong><br /><br /><a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/2008/01/you-should-exercise-using-more-than-one.html">Isometric contractions</a> can be described as a type of muscle contraction where your muscles develop tension without changing length. For example, pushing against a wall and holding for 30 seconds causes an isometric contraction. <br /><br /><strong>You should strength train your muscles with all contraction types (eccentric, isometric, concentric). All muscles function eccentrically (reduces force or deceleration), isometrically (stabilizes force) and concentrically (produces force).</strong><br /><br /><strong>Isometric exercises force most if not all of your muscles to work during an exercise.</strong> The stability ball plank exercise (pictured above) is a great example. To do the plank, you get into position and hold for a period of time (like 20 seconds). So, many core exercises are great isometric exercises. <br /><br /><strong>So, here are some other good isometric core exercises to help build your six pack abs:</strong><br /><br />1. <a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/2010/01/bodyweight-exercise-series-bridge-for.html">Bridge</a>, 10 repetitions, 20 second hold<br />2. Pushup and Hold, 20 second hold<br />3.

Get Six Pack Abs Sooner With Ab Ball Curl Ups

<strong>Get started sculpting your six pack abs using the ab ball curl up. You can do the ab ball curl up at home or at the park. To add resistance, place a weight on your chest.</strong><br /><br />The ab ball curl up is a good core exercise that won't injure your lower back, if done correctly. <strong>Your rectus abdominis (6-pack part of your abs) and obliques should do most of the work.</strong><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTpaEwC-J6PtJKfEw59srR4sPyLpIdL6L04kvdJrORizslTFa_FHjShVWrTVhcvTmYjopA2jtedH29LawiXP-XhRHTo-gKj2-5HigIDKHSIL0zZY275CFwBiO_itR3CM5vpXiTanD0EQ0F/s1600-h/Ab+ball+curl+up+A.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441223128541471170" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTpaEwC-J6PtJKfEw59srR4sPyLpIdL6L04kvdJrORizslTFa_FHjShVWrTVhcvTmYjopA2jtedH29LawiXP-XhRHTo-gKj2-5HigIDKHSIL0zZY275CFwBiO_itR3CM5vpXiTanD0EQ0F/s320/Ab+ball+curl+up+A.jpg" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 216px;" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXJrEuhKkMt8EDi7m8NQYjjHgLuee89L8MXf7gcU-Seqnf9p9iXUchRN4yEMvagklGU3-q93R-LBYxrqp-8hutBfDUUXHtjJAYPy1CGWifIejqj-SWHZIhwyH25vZ-XBguQRNPwHsbuNZu/s1600-h/Ab+ball+curl+up+B.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441223384040582722" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXJrEuhKkMt8EDi7m8NQYjjHgLuee89L8MXf7gcU-Seqnf9p9iXUchRN4yEMvagklGU3-q93R-LBYxrqp-8hutBfDUUXHtjJAYPy1CGWifIejqj-SWHZIhwyH25vZ-XBguQRNPwHsbuNZu/s320/Ab+ball+curl+up+B.jpg" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 216px;" /></a><br /><br />Lie on your back on the ball, knees bent about 90 degrees, hands behind head and feet flat on the floor.<br /><br />Lie on the ball so that your back hugs the ball.

Curl up through the upper back and not the neck. <strong>Brace your abs during the movement (as if someone is going to punch you in the gut).</strong> Keep your ears and shoulders in alignment. <strong>DON'T ROUND YOUR LOWER BACK WHEN LIFTING YOUR TORSO!</strong><br /><br /><strong>Use your abdominals to curl your upper back up. Don't move any other body part and keep your arms, shoulders, neck and legs relaxed as the abs pull you up. Your head and arms should curl up with your shoulders.</strong> <br /><br />Don't tilt your pelvis or pull with your thighs to lift your upper body. Hold for 2-3 seconds and return slowly to the starting position. <br /><br />Use your abdominals to lower your upper back.

Because of speed and intensity, power exercises help you burn more fat during and after your workout.<br /><br /><strong>Besides burning abdominal fat and helping sculpt your six pack abs, medicine ball front chops are great for improving your flexibility.</strong> Medicine ball exercises help you to exercise with natural movements. Your training needs to give you a body that you can use in every day life. Tight, rigid muscles will lead you to many injuries!<br /><br /><strong>Grab a medicine ball about 10% of your body weight. You might need a lighter ball if you are a beginner or have been inactive.</strong> Shoot for 3-4 sets of 20 repetitions (if doing this as a power exercise, then do 8-10 repetitions). <br /><br />--Stand with your feet slightly greater than shoulder width apart.<br /><br />--Keep your arms straight but don't lock your elbows.<br /><br />--Hold the medicine ball above your head.<br /><br />--Bend forward at the waist (into a squat position) and mimic throwing the ball between your legs (don't throw ball). Keep your back straight and your head in line with your torso (don't let head drop down or rise up)<br /><br />--Reverse the movement and stand with the ball above your head. That's 1 repetition.<br /><br />Do this exercise more often to sculpt your six pack abs!<br /><br /><strong><a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/p/lean-body-and-six-pack-abs.html#.UfUd09LqmuI">Get FREE Training and Nutrition Insider Secrets for a Lean-Body with Six Pack Abs</a>!</strong> This ebook, created by Certified Nutrition Specialist & Certified Personal Trainer, Mike Geary, details over 27 specific metabolism-boosting secrets that you can use to strip off your stubborn body fat faster and easier and get your six-pack abs!

Burn Fat With Complex Strength Training

<strong>Complex strength training burns fat better than traditional strength training. Complex strength training should not be tried by beginners or those with inadequate body strength. It is a high-risk, high-reward type of superset strength training.</strong> <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUXfnaZ4iwRi4zCLKg_bfG2bb9ISMiBcwbsuJ4LX43yB2MiNJX_REqDHaJllRrkRnGCPaQDOMK7wbfOyBevIT78Qtcq8ecHa4sJbg6ta9Mw3CfFhyphenhyphen_KcC425RTU-RjMDd0wYFcfSy1oPI/s1600-h/DB+Shoulder+Press.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5449794740375676898" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUXfnaZ4iwRi4zCLKg_bfG2bb9ISMiBcwbsuJ4LX43yB2MiNJX_REqDHaJllRrkRnGCPaQDOMK7wbfOyBevIT78Qtcq8ecHa4sJbg6ta9Mw3CfFhyphenhyphen_KcC425RTU-RjMDd0wYFcfSy1oPI/s320/DB+Shoulder+Press.jpg" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 216px; height: 320px;" /></a><br /><br /><strong>Power, or speed strength (how fast your muscles can produce force) is one of the best ways to improve your workout efficiency.</strong> Plyometric exercises help you to increase power. When plyometric exercises are paired with a similar strength exercise, your strength will improve. <br /><br /><strong>Complex training to improve strength supersets a power exercise with a biomechanically similar strength exercise.</strong> An example would be pairing repeating full-speed squat jumps with barbell squats. The barbell squats would be performed 1-2 minutes after the squat jumps to get maximum neuromuscular adaptations. <br /><br /><strong>You would do a set of full-speed repeating squat jumps (8-10 reps). Rest 1-2 minutes and then do 3-5 barbell squats at 85%-90% of 1RM. This is an advanced training method and should not be performed by those who do not have adequate stabilization strength and muscular strength.</strong> <br /><br />Other strength and plyometric exercises can also be superset this way (such as shoulder press/explosive medicine ball 2-handed upward throw). <br /><br /><strong>Complex training to improve strength is designed to increase strength throughout the full range of motion.</strong><br /><br /><strong><a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/p/lean-body-and-six-pack-abs.html#.UfUd09LqmuI">Get FREE Training and Nutrition Insider Secrets for a Lean-Body with Six Pack Abs</a>!</strong> This ebook, created by Certified Nutrition Specialist & Certified Personal Trainer, Mike Geary, details over 27 specific metabolism-boosting secrets that you can use to strip off your stubborn body fat faster and easier and get your six-pack abs!

Lose Weight Safely

<strong>Lose weight safely and steadily and it will stay off (if you continue your exercise program). If you lose weight this way, you are also building muscle and burning fat. Your body will gradually change to lean and toned. And, you will be healthy and look great. This process takes time and hard work folks! No quick remedies will give you the "killer body" you want. </strong> <br /><br />I was reading this article about a fad diet, "Lose 18 Pounds In 4 Days." That's crazy and if you fall for that you will be sick and maybe hospitalized!<br /><br /><strong>I have said this before so here it is again: losing weight and burning fat is not the most important thing in your life (it improves the quality of your life).</strong> Television commercials try to make you feel that way because they are trying to sell you their quick weight loss program! Don't buy in! These programs almost always lead you to yo-yo dieting and even more weight gain, frustration and bad health. <br /><br /><strong>It is safe to lose about 2 pounds per week (on average) as a part of your exercise program.</strong> At the beginning of your program, you might lose more weight and then level off in later weeks. <br /><br /><strong>So, if you want to lose 30 pounds the right way, expect it to take about 15 weeks.</strong> Your genetic makeup and compliance to your meal plan are two factors that could increase/decrease this time frame. <br /><br /><strong>What is the right way to exercise? A combination of interval cardio exercise (3-4 days a week) and resistance training (at least 3 days a week) is a proven effective permanent fat loss/weight loss combination.</strong> Resistance training will cause the majority of your weight loss to be fat loss (increasing lean mass at the same time) and it will also speed up your metabolism. <br /><br />Be sure and download your <b><a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/p/bodyweight-500-metabolic-fat-burner.html#.UeTaltLqmuI">Free Bodyweight 500 Metabolic Fat Burner Workouts</a></b> and start shaping your body faster!<br /><br /><b>Mark Dilworth, BA, PES</b><br /><b><a href="http://yourfitnessuniversity.com/">Your Fitness University</a><br /><a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/">My Fitness Hut</a><br /><a href="http://herfitnesshut.com/">Her Fitness Hut</a><br /><a href="http://sportsfitnesshut.blogspot.com/">Sports Fitness Hut</a><br /><a href="http://rapidfatlossandsixpackabs.com/">Rapid Fat Loss and Six Pack Abs</a></b><br /><br />

Power Cardio Burns Fat

<strong>Power Cardio is intense exercise and burns fat like crazy.</strong> You won't get bored doing power cardio but you will be exhausted! <br /><br /><strong>Power cardio will help you break through your weight loss plateau.</strong> All of the early success associated with starting an exercise program can send you into a tailspin when you reach a plateau. You become frustrated and wonder "what am I doing wrong?" <strong>You probably just need to change up your exercise routine and you'll be okay.</strong><br /><br /><strong>There are many ways to change up an exercise routine----</strong>do new exercises, adjust the intensity, adjust the amount of weight, adjust the repetitions/sets, etc. <strong>One of the best ways to get you "out of your exercise funk" is to add some power exercises to your cardio routine! Shorter, more intense workouts (weight training or cardio) will give you more <a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/2008/03/you-need-to-burn-subcutaneous-and.html">fat loss</a> gains!</strong> <br /><br /><strong>Here's an example: instead of doing cardio on the elliptical machine, do your cardio with a pair of power exercises.</strong> All it takes is 20 intense minutes! It can go something like this:<br /><br />--Full speed <a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/2009/03/my-fitness-huts-march-madness-medicine.html">medicine ball diagonal chops</a>, 1 minute<br />--Slow jog for 2 minutes<br />--Full speed <a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/2009/10/burn-abdominal-fat-with-medicine-ball.html">medicine ball front chops</a>, 1 minute <br />--Slow jog for 2 minutes<br /><br /><strong>Just do this rotation for 20 minutes and you have a very intense power cardio workout!</strong> And, on your weight training days, you could mix in some power exercises. Before you know it, you will have broken through your plateau! Try it! From personal experience, I know it works!<br /><br />Be sure and download your <b><a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/p/bodyweight-500-metabolic-fat-burner.html#.UeTaltLqmuI">Free Bodyweight 500 Metabolic Fat Burner Workouts</a></b> and start shaping your body faster!<br /><br /><b>Mark Dilworth, BA, PES</b><br /><b><a href="http://yourfitnessuniversity.com/">Your Fitness University</a><br /><a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/">My Fitness Hut</a><br /><a href="http://herfitnesshut.com/">Her Fitness Hut</a><br /><a href="http://sportsfitnesshut.blogspot.com/">Sports Fitness Hut</a><br /><a href="http://rapidfatlossandsixpackabs.com/">Rapid Fat Loss and Six Pack Abs</a></b><br /><br />

Stability Ball Exercises Activate More Muscles

<strong>Stability ball exercises can activate more muscle fibers if done correctly.</strong><br /><br />The stability ball is one of the most versatile and cost effective pieces of exercise equipment. You can take it with you and do exercises at home, work or on vacation. Doing your ab crunches on the stability ball is superior to the traditional floor crunches. <span style="font-weight:bold;">According to researchers in the Department of Kinesiology at Occidental College in Los Angeles, crunches performed by 41 test subjects on the stability ball showed significantly greater abdominal muscle activation than the traditional floor crunches. </span> <br /><br /><strong>I recommend doing the <a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/2010/02/ab-ball-curl-up.html">ab ball curl up</a> (pictured below) instead of crunches to avoid low back injuries.</strong> <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiv9jqUTk8PKXYKdcTSVRmICdracrtgJ9bTTZE0EgCKAiPyMb-TBPe4rzl7o9lzFFSkC0iPs5YgVAcJaUpkE6uQm6mEvMgZwtpV_sXS9TN7OwzPOgRSS6ocT4efbX3TkoJb7RZ3qGD9tcql/s1600/Ab_ball_curl_up_A.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5457208788467724658" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiv9jqUTk8PKXYKdcTSVRmICdracrtgJ9bTTZE0EgCKAiPyMb-TBPe4rzl7o9lzFFSkC0iPs5YgVAcJaUpkE6uQm6mEvMgZwtpV_sXS9TN7OwzPOgRSS6ocT4efbX3TkoJb7RZ3qGD9tcql/s320/Ab_ball_curl_up_A.jpg" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 216px;" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnEUeo9SL1evm6SFbKT3_OcnRbo9c1PgqRQ2RKCf65tH3yCfPFpW7M7GOXJQxyvI9TRNfKwpXTSj-KV64FUvKSMtlGsa0OSRDk0CaIegEMiyQUo0Iu1FwE5DgJg-4eLbx-BCisiVlaSqFP/s1600/Ab_ball_curl_up_B.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5457208996173267458" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnEUeo9SL1evm6SFbKT3_OcnRbo9c1PgqRQ2RKCf65tH3yCfPFpW7M7GOXJQxyvI9TRNfKwpXTSj-KV64FUvKSMtlGsa0OSRDk0CaIegEMiyQUo0Iu1FwE5DgJg-4eLbx-BCisiVlaSqFP/s320/Ab_ball_curl_up_B.jpg" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 216px;" /></a><br /><br />The results found heightened activity in the upper rectus abdominis, lower rectus abdominis and external oblique activity by 31%, 38% and 24%, respectively, when compared with the traditional floor crunch. The rectus abdominis muscles are affectionately called the "six-pack" of the abdominal region.<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;"><br />There is also another great reason to do your ab curl ups on the stability ball: you achieve a greater range of motion during the exercise because you are able to go back further and extend your trunk along the contours of the ball.</span> When you first try ball curl ups, it will feel very unstable to you. Don't let that stop you---you will adjust to this exercise!<br /><br />Be sure and download your <b><a href="http://www.yourfitnessuniversity.com/bodyweight_500_metabolic_fat_burner_workouts.html">Free Bodyweight 500 Metabolic Fat Burner Workouts</a></b> and start shaping your body faster!<br /><br /><b>Mark Dilworth, BA, PES</b><br /><b><a href="http://yourfitnessuniversity.com/">Your Fitness University</a><br /><a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/">My Fitness Hut</a><br /><a href="http://herfitnesshut.com/">Her Fitness Hut</a><br /><a href="http://sportsfitnesshut.blogspot.com/">Sports Fitness Hut</a><br /><a href="http://rapidfatlossandsixpackabs.com/">Rapid Fat Loss and Six Pack Abs</a></b><br /><br /><br />

Burn Fat Using Strength Exercises

<strong>Strength exercises will <a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/p/bodyweight-500-metabolic-fat-burner.html#.UeTaltLqmuI">burn fat</a> and lean out your body.</strong> Build more muscle mass to speed up your metabolism and burn more fat. <br /><br />To recruit more muscle fibers during workouts and improve your success, focus more on <strong>MULTI-JOINT OR COMPOUND EXERCISES</strong>. <br /><br />COMPOUND EXERCISES will help you burn more fat because you are working large muscle groups in your body. For example, the largest muscle in the body is the gluteus maximus and squats/lunges would target this area (among other areas). You will also burn more calories after your workout. <br /><br />Examples of SINGLE-JOINT EXERCISES are biceps curl, seated calf raise, leg extension, leg curl and triceps pushdowns. Spend less of your time on these exercises. <br /><br /><strong>Here are some top strength exercises that will help you burn fat:</strong><br /><br /><strong><a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/2007/03/squat-dont-exercise-without-it.html">Squats</a></strong> - Bodyweight, dumbbell or barbell....do your squats!<br /><br /><strong>Deadlift</strong> - Deadlift is a must for your exercise program. It is also one of the best ways to build muscle thickness in your lower back. <a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/2009/05/how-to-burn-low-back-fat.html">Lower back fat</a> is a problem for many people.<br /><br /><strong>One-arm dumbbell rows and Pullups</strong> - These two are a must for any routine so I'm counting them as one exercise.<br /><br /><strong>Clock Lunges</strong> - Clock lunges work your body in all planes of motion. Lunge with your right leg at 12 o’clock, 2 o’clock, 3 o’clock, 5 o’clock and 6 o’clock. That’s 1 repetition for your right leg. Lunge with your left leg at 12 o’clock, 10 o’clock, 9 o’clock, 7 o’clock and 6 o’clock. That’s 1 repetition for left leg. Maintain upright posture throughout to improve core strength.<br /><br /><strong>Dumbbell Chest Press on Ball</strong> - Doing the chest press on the ball forces you to balance while lifting. Each arm also has to do equal work.<br /><br /><strong>You should also include exercises like standing shoulder presses, step ups, pushups on medicine ball and tricep bar dips in my workouts.</strong> <br /><br />Be sure and download your <b><a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/p/bodyweight-500-metabolic-fat-burner.html#.UeTaltLqmuI">Free Bodyweight 500 Metabolic Fat Burner Workouts</a></b> and start shaping your body faster!<br /><br /><b>Mark Dilworth, BA, PES</b><br /><b><a href="http://yourfitnessuniversity.com/">Your Fitness University</a><br /><a href="http://myfitnesshut.blogspot.com/">My Fitness Hut</a><br /><a href="http://herfitnesshut.com/">Her Fitness Hut</a><br /><a href="http://sportsfitnesshut.blogspot.com/">Sports Fitness Hut</a><br /><a href="http://rapidfatlossandsixpackabs.com/">Rapid Fat Loss and Six Pack Abs</a></b><br /><br />
