| How
much exercise one does determines the amount of weight they will
lose – particularly with a reduced caloric diet. It depends on
two other factors: the person’s body composition and their metabolism.
While a single pound of fat is equivalent to approximately 3,500
calories, the healthiest method of weight loss is two pounds per
week. For example with a caloric reduction of 500 calories per
day via coupled with a nutritious diet, exercise, or in conjunction
with each other can put weight loss on a steady course.
Beginner’s exercise
strategy: Beginner exercisers should get started with an exercise
routine at a slow deliberate pace. Even if you are in decent
shape, consulting a physician and gradually building your program
is key. Overweight individuals require medical clearance prior
to starting a new fitness regimen. Since the potential of high
blood is greater in overweight patients, doctor’s approval is
needed to set the limits of an exercise routine.
Three to four days
of regular exercise is recommended for the rookie exerciser.
Stamina and endurance should be worked up to a minimum of five
days a week. Simple cardio exercising such as walking, biking
or an elliptical machine may be performed 30 minutes a day.
Unlike cardiovascular
activity, weight lifting, body building or strength resistance
training should be done a maximum of three to four days.
Now for dieters looking
for a way to eliminate those last five pounds, there is a way
to the finish line. Obviously, calorie reduction is inevitable.
Upping the ante on your bodybuilding program is a necessity,
as well. Although those muscles outweigh fat, your body will
look slender, cut ripped and contoured. |
