Bodyweight Exercises To Warm Up For Weight Loss Workouts

This weight loss workouts works for people that have a limited amount of time to exercise. Most of us don't have 6-8 hours per week to workout, nor do we really need it.

Most people use bodyweight exercises to warm-up. They help to build muscle. Bodyweight exercises are a form of weight loss workouts used to develop strength and endurance, where the only resistance to movement is supplied by the weight your own body. Consider using the following bodyweight exercises prior to your fat burning exercise and you’ll be able to get in and out of the gym in 45 - 60 minutes, three times per week.

3 bodyweight exercises

a) Wall walking - Stand with your back to a wall or tree or anything else you can wall walk down. Make sure you are about 3-4 feet away from the wall. Lean backwards and place your hands on the wall behind you. Slowly move your hands down the wall until your hands hit the floor. Arch your back and come up to your tippy-toes as you move further down. THEN, either 1): Turn to your stomach and repeat or 2) Walk BACK UP the wall.

b) Bear Walks – for your arms, back, chest and lower body. These get you out of breath really quickly if you perform them correctly. It’s basically an animal walks. Find a large area to do this exercise. Put all your weigh on your hands and feet. Bring your right hand and left foot forward and then your left hand and right foot. Start RUNNING like this on all fours. Keep going until you’re out of breath.

c) Press Ups - also known as a push-up. This fat burning exercise is performed in a prone position, lying horizontal and face down. Raise and lower the body using the arms. Push ups develop the pectoral and triceps muscles. There’s also some development of the deltoids. To develop other arm, chest, shoulder and back muscles, you can perform variations of the push-up. Planche press-ups are completed with the feet elevated. Boxer’s push-ups are completed while wearing boxing gloves. This means the exercise is done on your knuckles without using your wrists.

Bodyweight exercises are great to get use of your whole body. They are all exercises you can do at home. After completing these exercises, you can move into weight loss workouts where I recommend at least 3 fat burning exercise are performed twice each with minimum rest between each. This way you only need 20-25 minutes to complete your fitness exercise program.

I think that the best way to burn belly fat is with a combination of strength training and interval training. It’s fast, it works, and it’s fun!
