The 3 Most Effective Ways To Lose Fat (Research Proven)
good day to you my friend this is Dr a from the fit father project and the fit mother project in today's video we're going to cover three of the best workouts for burning stubborn fat now you probably want to lose some weight you want to tone up certain areas of your body maybe you have a lot of weight to lose and if you're over 40 I need to tell you that not all exercise is created equal there are certain kinds of workouts particularly workout number two I'm going to show you in this video that is flat out the most effective exercise for you to do period but I ideally want you to incorporate all three of these types of workouts into your weekly schedule let's get into the first one right away the first best workout for burning belly fat and stubborn fat is a healthy diet paired with daily walking seriously get this into your head you do not need to do high intensity workouts to lose fat this is supported by the research there was a 12-week trial that showed that people who walked 30 or 60 minutes per day lost pretty much equivalent amounts of body fat and they actually lost the visceral fat the deep fat around your organ it creates inflammation walking is amazing not just for the fact that it does burn fat as you're doing it but also improves your mood it also gets your body into a less stressed state which means you're going to be less reactive to eating all kinds of crappy Foods it gets you outside it gets you breathing gets your cardiovascular system going there's a couple ways I recommend you walk one is walk first thing in the morning after you've had some water so a morning walk get some sunshine and walk in a fasted State the second time I recommend you walk is after having a meal if you've ever felt sluggish after having a big meal like a big lunch or certainly a big dinner what we found is actually walking after that meal activates some of the muscles in your legs to soak up some of that glucose so you have better glucose control you actually can improve your energy levels and it improves digestion so walking after meals is huge now there was a big analysis from the American College of sports medicine that looked at all these different studies and what they found for the purpose of losing fat and overall health walking for around 150 to 250 minutes per week and this roughly equates to around 30 minutes per day so get it in as many ways as you can obviously a good walk is great but even sprinkling in little walks and moving throughout the day is phenomenal now you probably want to know about the exact kind of workout I'm mentioning number two so the most effective kind of fat burning exercise for people over 40 is the type of exercise called metabolic resistance training we call it MRT we're basically doing strength training exercises in a circuit with very little rest this is the best kinds of exercise because you're getting the muscle building and strength training effect we know strength training is key but you're also getting cardio you're getting fat burning and these workouts only take on the low side like 15 minutes up to maybe 45 minutes you do these once or twice a week maybe three times you really want to push the pace your metabolism is constantly going to be revved up and you can do them at home with a pair of dumbbells so if right now you have a lot of weight to lose and the idea of going to a gym and having people stare at you doesn't sound very fun then get yourself a pair of dumbbells go into your basement go into your garage and do these workouts and I'm actually going to show you one of these workouts right now on camera we have a video here on YouTube that's actually super popular it's an MRT workout called 1010 burn I'm going to link that full video in case you want to get the long version of it but I'm going to give you the condensed version of it right now the first motion we're going to do is a squat press this is basically holding the weights up by your collarbones you're doing a squat down and as you reach the top you're gonna do a shoulder press you can do 10 reps of those obviously if you're just starting out use a light weight warm up a little bit make sure your knees your shoulders are doing okay but aim for 10 reps of this immediately after doing 10 reps of squat press you're going to put the dumbbells down brace your core squeeze your abs and you're going to do rows 10 reps of a two arm dumbbell row this is great because we just worked the legs the core and shoulders now we're working the back and the arms and you're starting to get a little cardio effect so that's 10 reps of the first exercise 10 reps of this row and now it's a it's this workout's called 1010 burn so the next thing we're going to do is we're going to get onto the floor and do some push-ups now there's a good chance you can't actually do straight up push-ups yet maybe you can maybe you can whatever you can do get on your knees get on your toes do as many push-ups as you can to failure so 10 10 burn the burn is the failure part so maybe it's five maybe it's ten if you're already pretty fit maybe you're getting over 20 push-ups that's great do that until you're at failure and then we're going to move on to the next exercise the next exercise we're going to get up off the floor and we're gonna do a dead lift so you get those dumbbells by your sides and basically we're gonna pick them up with a nice strong back so dumbbells can be at your sides you're going to get a good position where you're bracing your core your spine is aligned and you're going to stand up with those dumbbells and squeeze your legs now this is going to be a motion you need to practice if you're not used to doing this in a while but 10 reps here is going to be absolutely phenomenal for you so focus on the picking up and squeeze as well as the lowering and bracing your core go down as far as comfortable for you if you have a lot of weight to lose and your belly's still big at this point it can be a lot to bend down and get down but just do the best that you can and then the final exercise is an rkc plank this is the most challenging exercise in this list we're also going to do is to burn AKA to failure so this is what an rkc plank looks like it's an advanced exercise you have two dumbbells down you're doing a row a row and then a push-up and a row and a row and a push-up so you may need to start with your knees right now and use a very light dumbbell five to ten pounds on your knees where you do a row a row and a little bit of a push-up on those weights and if you're really starting out you can even do this exercise just in a plank position with no weights and just bring an arm up bring an arm up and then do a little body weight push-up also phenomenal so again this workout and recap first motion squat press 10 reps of that immediately we're going to go back down into the two arm row 10 reps of that then we're going to drop to the floor and do push-ups either on our hands and our toes or on our knees as many reps as you can until burn then you can get back up and do the deadlifts 10 reps and then we're gonna do those Renegade rows any of the varieties the full Styles you see here or even just the completely deconstructed Style with no weights whatsoever and you're going to do that until burn failure here that is one circuit no rest all the way through that now after you finish that circuit you're going to catch your breath let's just say for two three minutes or so and then repeat another round so I think a good starting workout is even to do one round of that is great but if you can get up to three rounds of that awesome this workout at three rounds will probably take you around 15-20 minutes we have many people who try to go up to five rounds and try to do as much as they can in a 45 minute so if you're a busy parent you have a 45 minute timer try to get as many rounds of this as possible it's just like the simplest way you can exercise you're working your whole entire body your metabolism is going to be so much faster and you can do this absolutely anywhere when you're traveling at home even at the gym if you like go to the gym so that is metabolic resistance training now Insider actual paid programming Community for fit father and fit mother we literally have dozens of these kinds of workouts and quite frankly I think even better ones plus we give you the meal plan plus you get coaching and accountability from me and my team personally where we're with you keeping you on track and encouraging you so if you really want to see results and you're interested come into our program as a community you're going to be blown away how awesome it is not just how great we are my team and my curriculum but the community of people following these programs incredible best place online for people over 40 who want to lose weight and get fit fit father and fit mother check that out now exercise Tech number three to finish out this video is high intensity interval training and this is what's the most time efficient way to do cardio to get good fat burning benefit and what high intensity interval training is is alternating between a period of burst where you're going really hard and really fast with a longer period of rest and recovery but you're never stopping moving and there are two ways I recommend you do this the first way is that you do burst for 30 seconds so this might mean you're on a bike you're on a treadmill you're on elliptical and you raise the resistance and you're going a little harder and faster for around 30 seconds ideally breathing focusing on your breathing but really pushing yourself hard and for the next minute and a half to two minutes you're going to get back to an easier pace you're gonna allow your heart rate to recover heart rate to get back down so let's just say you did 30 seconds burst 90 seconds recovery that's a two minute block and if you repeat that seven times you're at like a basically a 15 minute workout if you do it 10 times you're at a 20 minute workout and it's so effective because when you do the burst you're activating your body you're burning a lot of calories your body actually liberates fat from some fat cells and you burn it a lot when you're in that lower intensity work and you get to recover so you get high intensity for longer duration very very good now in terms of putting this all together into a holistic plan like how this works with workouts first thing I want you to start thinking about is I walk every single day walk get the steps in walk do more walking it's the foundation with the healthy eating and then maybe schedule in one or two of these MRT workouts per week if you're not used to training you'll be sore after this for a few days not like crazy sore but sore so maybe you do it on one day on Monday and you do another one of these workouts on Friday just an example and then I think it's a good Target to do one high intensity interval training session per week so maybe you do one day of high intensity cardio in the middle so you do Monday Wednesday Friday three exercise sessions each of these takes under 30 minutes 90 minutes of exercise per week with daily walking and you can completely transform your body when paired with good nutrition I can say this with such confidence I've helped people lose hundreds of thousands of pounds over the age of 40 with my FIT fathers and fit mothers you can see some here for some inspiration most of these people started from Ground Zero just like you they had no experience with exercise maybe they did it many years ago when they were playing sports many of these people has injuries most of these people are very busy juggling family and work but they
