Spring is here and before you know it Summer will be too. In the cold winter weather, it can be very unmotivating to venture out of the house and down to the gym.
If you are one that has slacked off during the winter, now is the time you are probably thinking about burning off fat, and gaining lean muscle mass.
Well you’re in luck! Our friends at Health Ambition have listed ten simple exercises that are very effective at burning fat fast and creating lean muscle mass. Even better, most of these exercises require minimal equipment or preparation.
We have a glimpse of the top ten fat burning exercise routines below:
- Total Body Circuits with Weights
- Take some weights outside, and workout your whole body. Start with the shoulders, then move to a body part that’s “far away” like the thighs. Keep switching up between working out the upper and lower body.
- Jump Rope Intervals
- Become a kid again! Rope jumping provides a great total body workout with minimal equipment required.
- HIIT Training
- High Intensity Interval Training involves working out very hard, whether lifting weights or doing cardio, for a short period of time, then taking a short break. Then repeat.
- Treadmill with an Incline
- Walking is an activity that can be done anywhere. Stuck inside on a raining day? Use a treadmill with an incline to mimic going on a hike in the woods.
- Spinning
- If you like to exercise with a group, try a spinning class. These stationary bikes allow you to mimic a high intensity bike ride, which is a fun way to burn fat fast. If the weather is nice, use your spinning skills and ride a bike outside.
- CrossFit Classes
- CrossFit combines a variety of weight training and cardio exercises into an intense strength training and conditioning program. It’s guaranteed to increase lean muscle mass and decrease body fat.
- Rowing
- Rowing provides a total body exercise that is not so harsh on the knees. If you have bad knees, this is the workout for you.
- Swimming
- Swimming laps is one of the best fat burning exercises. It proves a total body workout that is easy on the joints.
- Stairs
- Climbing stairs is a simple and effective way to burn fat. Stuck inside? The StairMaster tool is one of the toughest pieces of exercise equipment in the gym. Its stairs continuously move, so in theory you can never reach to top.
- Cardio Circuit
- Burn fat fast by mixing up your cardio exercises. Go running for 10 minutes, then ride your bike, then end by performing laps in the pool.
