The BEST exercise 4 weight loss

This is always a fun topic. Every body it seems, wants to loose weight. With this large amount of interest, there are many conflicting views and opinions on the best way to loose weight. Most fitness professionals concentrate on two factors: Diet and exercise. I will reveal today the third and MOST IMPORTANT factor to weight loss. Before i do that, let us invest some thought on the best exercise to promote weight loss.

The science behing loosing some belly fat is extremely simple. When calories taken in are less than those expired, the body will use up fat stores. So surely the best exercise for weight loss will be the one that burns calories most effectively and efficiently.

The breakdown of muscle tissue stimulates a response from our body. We re-build the muscle tissue, stronger than it was before. This process requires a lot of calories. Any exercise that breaks down muscle tissue will burn more calories because for 48 hrs after the workout, we are still burning calories by re-building the muscle tissue.

Strength exercises will break down muscle tissue most effectively. This includes using a high resistance for a low number of repetitions.

However, we have over 600 muscles in our body, so the BEST exercise for weight loss is one that uses as many as these 600 muscles as possible. A bicep curl is great for the biceps and even a few other muscles, but it is not a whole body exercise.

Bodyweight exercises that use as many muscles as possible whilst working each muscle AS HARD as possible is the BEST exercise for weight loss. Choose a bodyweight exercise that you can only do between 4-8 repetitions before fatigue. For the athletes reading this, a push up is too easy a bodyweight exercise to be seen as a strength exercise. It is an endurance exercise.

Demanding bodyweight exercises such as superman push-ups and rotating jump squats will serve you best (explained in my free report - http://www.luvexercise.com/home.html)

There is another major benefit to this type of exercise in relation to fat loss. In no time at all your muscle mass will increase. Muscle tissue is an extremely active tissue that burns a lot of calories even at rest. Increasing muscle mass will increase your resting metabolic rate. Therefore, you will burn more calories, even while resting. Pretty cool dont ya think!?

So now you know the best type of exercise to do for ultimate fat loss. But this information will not help you AT ALL if you are not motivated to exercise.

Now to tell you the third and most important factor with fat loss. A person is overweight because they over-eat. Simple as that. The reason for over-eating in 99% of cases is an emotional issue. Eating food not only provides pleasure, but it also provides emotional numbness. If we are feeling a particular negative emotion, for whatever reason, food is a great way to cover this up.
