Did you know there are several fat burning workouts you can do? Fat burning workouts can be actual exercises or activities, as long as there is some type of aerobic movement, which is the key.

When we talk about fat burning, people usually associates it with cardiovascular workouts. But that’s not always true. To burn fat effectively, your heart rate needs to be at around 65% to 75& of your Maximum Heart Rate. To put things simpler, it falls under the medium intensity level.

It does not help a lot if you work out in an intensity which is too high, or too low.

The following are five of the most effective workouts that will definitely help a person burn fat, thus losing weight and toning muscles.

Weight Lifting

Weight Lifting – One of the best fat burning workouts is to hit the gym and start lifting weights. This exercise does not have to last a long time but it does need to be intense and vigorous for the best results. For instance, repetitions should be low to medium, usually between eight and twelve RM, which is “repetition maximum”. For this, it is important to life the most weight possible for the number of repetitions before feeling fatigued.

While weight lifting does help burning calories, it also puts lean muscle tissue on the body, thereby burning fat. For every pound of muscle developed, between 50 and 60 calories are burned every day. That means within a one-year period, 10 pounds of new lean muscle mass would burn as much as 60 pounds of fat, something no other exercise can do.

Running

Another of the great fat burning workouts is with running, something that can be done from virtually any location. Running on flat surfaces and incorporating some hills and intervals will burn up to 300 calories in about 30 minutes, while building lean muscle that in turn, burns fat.

Cardio Kickboxing

A great exercise/activity to consider for fat burning workouts is cardio kickboxing. This particular exercise is exciting and fun, and for a one-hour session, can burn upwards of 500 calories, based on the intensity of the class. Included in this exercise are both flexibility and strength training, which works incredible for burning fat.

Cycling and Spinning

While spinning is done in a class, cycling is something that could be done on a stationary bike or a real bike from home. One of the most popular fat burning workouts, this type of exercise is great for burning both calories and fat. Using a variety of intensity workouts, significant calories can be burned in one hour, often as much as 700.

Elliptical and Stair Machines

The final option for fat burning workouts is using elliptical and stair machines, which can be found in the gym or purchased for an in-home workout. In addition to burning fat and calories, this type of exercise also protects the body’s joints from other type of fat burning workouts that can cause a hard impact.

Women have dreams of svelte abs dancing in their head, unfortunately the sugar plums moved out of the dreams and in around the mid section and brought a few extra pounds with them. Forget about getting the navel pierced, who would you show it off to anyway?

Men on the other hand don’t want to admit that they want to have the coveted six pack abs. However, every time a cute girl walks by, just watch how they **** in that gut trying to hide the fact that they have a few extra pounds of belly fat themselves..

Doesn’t it just drive you nuts to constantly work doing crunches just to get that flat tummy, only to fail miserably. We are bombarded with temptations that we give into and then before our very eyes the belly fat takes on another pound.

We all want to get rid of excess belly fat especially when summer is around the corner however it’s not enough to just want to lose it, you have to actually do something to lose it. Dieting is not the way to do it because diets do not work. You get tired of the restrictions placed on you by diets so you end up going back to the way you were eating and the same bad habits and generally put on more weight than you lost. Like a yoyo, constantly going up and down. Well it’s time to break that bad habit for good.

We allow habits to control our lives. Smoking, nail biting, cracking our knuckles, overeating or even eating the wrong foods are all habits we have learned. Well here you can learn a good habit and lose stubborn belly fat for good in 21 days with these 6 fat melting habits.

2. Now, get a piece of paper and write down every morsel of food that you eat. No cheating here, even if you slip up, you need to write down every thing that you eat. Don’t worry you only have to do this for 2 days, this will help you to acknowledge what you are eating and be aware. Even better write it down for a week to see what you are really doing.

3. Make some time in your busy schedule to exercise. At least 3 times per week you need do some planned exercises, such as a 30-minute walk, if you can’t spare the 30 minutes all at once then take a 15 minute walk twice a day. Set a schedule and stick to it for 21 days.

4. Make a habit of eating breakfast every morning. Make it a healthy breakfast such as oatmeal, eggs, whole wheat toast, fresh fruit.

5. Take a healthy lunch with you to work or ff you do go out then you should make sure that you plan where you will eat and what you will have and just so you are prepared make sure that you take a healthy snack with you, such as some carrot sticks or an apple.

6. A positive attitude is your key to success. Keep a positive attitude, avoid negativity and stress because they can cause you body to produce fat storing hormones
