To lose weight you must put out more calories than you put
in. To put out calories you must be active, and you can do this with exercise.
To put in calories you must eat. To put in fewer calories
you must eat sensibly according to your activity level. A very general rule of
thumb for calorie intake is multiplying 10-15 calories by your body weight and
this will give you a daily calorie count. Now that you have the amount you’re
putting in, it’s the time to create a daily calorie deficit with exercises. By
creating a deficit of 500 calories a day you will burn 3500 extra calories for
the week which will add up to a pound of fat, now you’re on the way.
The best way to burn large amounts of calories while
exercising is with High Intensity Interval Training. A way of doing this is
combining weight training with conditioning drills. An example of this is to do
a set of squats alternated with a minute of jumping rope. There are countless
combinations that can be done, but the best way is to do a multi joint compound
exercise alternated by a full body conditioning drill.
