When you look at yourself in the mirror every day, does the unwanted fat that you see, trigger a desire in you to do something about it now?
The rest of this article will be important to you, only if you answered yes to the question posed.
If you want to lose the fat that you see, when you look at your body in a mirror, you will have to do some form of fat burning exercise. You will also have to alter your eating routines, but the exercise is far more important.
Exercise Speeds Up Your Metabolism
To lose the unwanted fat on your body, you must increase your metabolism. You can only increase your metabolism through exercise. When you increase your metabolism, you burn the food that you have recently consumed more quickly – for energy. Then you will begin to burn the fat on your body for energy.
By increasing your metabolism, fat burning occurs thoughout the day – and not just when you are exercising. Scientific researchers call this “the thermogenic effect of exercise”.
Achieving The Maximum Thermogenic Effect
There are a few factors which will largely determine the effectiveness of your exercise routine, in raising your metabolic rate, which will determine the rate at which you will lose your unwanted fat. These are: what form of exercise you do, the frequency of your exercise, and the amount of time you spend exercising.
What is also important is the intensity of your movement when you are exercising.
However, the most important of these is the mode of exercise you choose to do.
Forms of Exercise That Bring About Fat Loss
There are two broad categories of exercise. They are aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise.
Swimming, bicycle riding, running and walking are some examples of aerobic exercise. In the context of fat loss, the main example of anaerobic exercise is strength training or training with weights.
Strength training results in more fat loss and faster fat loss, than you will get from aerobic exercise. However, many people find that strength training does not appeal to them. They elect to do a form of aerobic exercise instead, which also is effective in bringing about fat loss. It is worth mentioning, that if you do both strength training and a form of aerobic exercise, it brings about the most efficient fat loss.
What Exercise Routine Will You Choose To Do?
Which category of exercise appeals to you more, strength training or aerobic exercise? Would you do both, or only one of them? Your answer to these questions will give rise to several other questions. IE – how long should you spend doing your exercise routine?, should you exercise daily or less frequently?, is there an recommended level of exertion for the exercise?
