Exercise Techniques

Exercise Techniques 1

Exercising can be hard to figure out, I’ve surfed and surfed but never know which ones to use to help me lose belly fat. Well thanks to the army and a few good websites, I finally have the answer for you.

A real good one is Bicycle Exercises, and I’m not talking about actually riding a bike (though this can help), let me explain.

First you need to lay on the floor flat, with your lower back firmly on the ground. Your hands should then be placed besides your head and left there, bring your knees up to about a 45 degree angle and slowly go through the motion as if you were pedaling a bike. Tough your left elbow to your right knee and then your right elbow to your left knee (while making the bicycling motion.) so at this point you should be alternating your legs and arms.

Another great exercise is the ball crunch. Of course this requires a fun, giant, exercise ball but there are various ways you can do it. You will need to lay back on the pall, positioning it under your lower back, so you should be supporting a good majority of your weight on the ball. Cross your arms just over our chest, or you can even place them behind your head, so long as you are not using them as leverage. Contract your abdominals to left your torso off of the ball, then pull teh bottom of your ribcage down towards your hips.

When you curl up, keep the ball stable (so it doesn’t roll) and when you lower back down get a stretch in to the abs, repeat this about twelve to sixteen times, and do this in counts of about one to three reps depending on what you think you can handle!

Exercise is key!

Some of the best ways to get rid of fat is exercising, but what are some of the types of exercises you can do? And which ones are the best? Well, there are many you can choose from and here is a small list.

First off, walking. Walking anywhere can be a wonderful way to lose weight and get out of the house. The ultimate would be hiking, I had an aunt who lost over 200 pounds from hiking and cutting down on soda, other than that she didn’t do much else. Its amazing how exploring the world around you can give you a glimpse into a sexier you.

Weight training will help tighten up your muscles and keep your body looking tone and lean. Aerobics, swimming, climbing, and many other recreational sports are also fun ways to lose weight.

Another great thing to do is to lose weight with a friend, find a schedule where you two can work together in obtaining a common goal, or even work out with a loved one. Getting help and support from other people will help you pull through when it seems the toughest, and if you are doing it together you can only support each other until you reach that ultimate goal of perfection.

The last piece of advice is if you are choosing when to lose weight try to start it in the summer time, this is when it’ll be easiest to go out doors and be motivated. Our weight tends to go up during the winter because of the cold and not to mention days like thanksgiving and christmas!
