Muscles help to burn fats. Yes, it is true! The more muscles you have, the more fats you can burn to be used as energy to sustain the body. I will zoom into the parts that you should train to speed up fat-burning. I've actually disclosed in my previous entry that there are 3 parts to train to speed up fat-burning. Chest, back and thigh muscles are the biggest in our body.
I will zoom into each part in detail in my next few entries. For beginners, you can start training these parts at home with your own body weight. Start with these home exercises to prepare for the weight training in the later stages.
Chest: Push-ups aka Pumping
For those who have difficulty, its alright to put your knees on the ground as you do the exercise. Subsequently, when your chest muscles get stronger, there won't be any problem doing with your knees off the ground.
Back: Pull-ups aka Chin-ups
Most probably its quite hard to do this at home. For me, I use the ledge at the top of the door frame. I dun have a full grip but it is sufficient for me to carry out my workouts. I suggest beginners to go down to the fitness corners for this exercise. For those who have difficulty doing a full pull-up, try doing half pull-ups without straightening your arm. Alternatively, get a partner, bend your knees while you grip and hang on the pull-up bar with arms straight and get him/her to support by pushing your bended knees up as you pull.
Back: Back Extension
The easier back workout using body weight which can be done at the comfort of your home. Lie face down on a exercise mat or on your "tilum", cup your ears with your hand and push your upper body up using your back muscles. All the while keeping your neck "locked", do not tilt your head up while you are pushing up, it could strain your neck muscles. For those who are comfortable and beyond beginners' level, you might want to try Superman or Bird-Dog exercises to accelerate muscle building and muscle definition for your back.
Thigh: Lunges and Squats
When you bend your knees, try to make sure that you can still see your toes. If you can't, you are bending forward rather than "sitting down". And make sure your back is kept straight throughout these exercises.
Simple home exercises using body weights, thats a way to get started. And ladies, I stress again that you do not have the genres to produce huge muscles. There aint enough muscle cells to grow bulky muscles. By doing weight training, you will simply look toner and firmer.
To everyone, dun wait anymore, jump onto the bandwagon as I take you through the fat-burning journey the right way. More coming up so stay tuned to FatsOff!!! =)
