Effective Resistance Training

Burn the Fat with Effective Resistance Training

One of the fundamental aspects many physical training newbies never realize is more is not necessarily better. If weight loss is a primary goal for introducing resistance training into your workout, all you need to do is set aside 20 minutes of time conducting three sessions per week to burn off fat and calories. However, if you are looking to add muscle and strength - do the same. That's right - the side effect from burning calories and fat through resistance training is building muscle mass as well. If you want to get stronger, exchange fat for muscle through effective resistance training.

What is Effective Resistance Training?
Resistance training produces stretched muscles that experience workout after burn and healing increasing the body's metabolic rate burning calories while developing greater muscle mass. In fact, each added pound of muscle represents burning 50 calories per day. Here is the great truth about simply burning an extra 50 calories a day through resistance training - it can translate into additional food consumption or bank it as an additional weight loss win.

Keep Breathing for Success
Getting an increased intake of oxygen helps melt away more fat during any type of physical activity, Therefore, proper breath control is an important aspect toward developing an effective resistance training component to your exercise regimen. The positive effects resulting from this type of training include:

- Weight loss through consistent calorie burning
- Fat loss results in inch loss, for example, waist size
- Reduce obesity-related disease risks
- Develop a stronger ability to resist injury
- Increase bone density and strength
- Decrease your Body Mass Index (BMI)

Resistance Alone is Futile
Keep in mind effective resistance training is no substitution for a cardio exercise program. It should compliment your cardio program that, when combined, produce an effectively faster method toward weight loss and muscle building. Don't become discouraged if your training produces actual weight gain by adding muscle mass in the beginning. This is a short-term situation encountered while your body adjusts to this new exercise routine. You may see a difference in how your clothes fit, particularly around your waist. However, do not be surprised if the scale reveals an actual slight weight gain. Never allow the scale alone to dictate any weight loss success since beginning results may add more muscle than melting fat.

Exercises Can Vary
Your choice selecting an effective resistance training exercise may be related to your own personal likes or dislikes. Some people prefer exercises not involving objects or machines while others gravitate toward organized routines that employ a variety of mechanical tools. Here are some examples of resistance training exercises to consider:

Circuit Training - consists of a program of multiple and separate exercises that are performed one after another and when the last is completed, begin again. Exercises focus on different body areas such as performing sit-ups (Abs), pull-ups (Arms) and step-ups (Legs).

Water aerobics is actually a form of resistance training conducted, for example, in a pool where the water acts as the resistor when performing activities such as walking or running forwards or backwards along with other movements such as imitating cross country skiing.

Device-oriented resistance training includes use of items like an exercise ball, dumbbells, free weights or simple elastic bands providing resistance for muscle activity.

Effective Training Tips
Always consult with an expert trainer to develop a personal program that would include skipping a day between your training allowing for muscle repair. Make sure your training program includes warm-up before and stretching after working out. Your program should have a component that increases the amount of resistance and repetitions as your body develops making exercise easier. Remember to work your large muscle groups in the beginning for ultimate weight loss and then target small muscle groups for body toning later.

Always consider quality workouts opposed to quantity.

Power Plate Better Than Aerobics? - See the Details on Madonna's New Exercise

Have you ever wondered why Madonna, despite her age, still maintains a body like that of a 20-year old? Madonna has been in the limelight for decades now. Since her first public appearance, her body has never changed. And the secret? Right diet and regular workout. Her exercise equipment? The new Power Plate!

You probably heard of Power Plate before and the effects you can get from using it. But if not, the details about this machine are something you should see. Power Plate is a revolutionary workout system that uses the principle of vibration to stimulate muscle contraction.

Power Plate's design is simple, yet clever. It looks closely as a weighing scale with a vibrating platform. You sit, stand, or lean on the vibrating surface while you do your normal workout. As the platform vibrates, your muscle is forced to contract and relax more frequently than when doing aerobic exercises or working out on a non-vibrating surface. The result of this increased muscle activity is that you get to burn more calories and thus lose weight.

This may be too amazing to believe but a study supports this claim. According to a research study which tracked 61 overweight and obese adult males and females, those who used Power Plates, along with a low-calorie diet during the course of the study, responded better than those who used a different method. Those who used Power Plate lost an average of 11 percent on body weight compared to 6 percent weight loss for those who dieted but did not exercise, and 7 percent weight loss for those who dieted and used conventional exercise. However, this research warns that standing on the surface of the machine is not enough.

This result, of course, may vary from person to person. But it doesn't change the fact that using exercise equipment such as Power Plate can definitely help you lose weight.

Aerobic And Cardio Training - How Hard Must You Go For Results

The most fundamental key to aerobic activities is getting out of breath. It is essential you examine your exercise to see if it is achieving this. In my experience I have met many people who do hours of swimming but never get even slightly out of breath, or play hours of tennis but say to me they cannot lose weight.

These two examples show how exercise can be misleading. When swimming, your technique may limit you from being able to reach an intensity to achieve the real health benefits of exercise. Tennis, by nature of its design is stop start and very often does not challenge the aerobic system at all. i understand it takes 2 hours to play a match but more often than not the exerciser is spending considerably more time standing around than running.

The above examples are not a criticism of tennis or swimming but rather just making you aware of what really is an aerobic activity and what is not. For your health to be maximized you must reach an intensity that you are breathing more deeply than usual for a prolonged amount of time.

In the gym it is also very common to see people on machines but not reaching the required intensity level. If your body can handle level 10 and you are gong at level 3 it is going to struggle to really make gains in fitness and health. However, do not be mistaken that level 3 is useless. It is still exponentially more beneficial than the person who never does any aerobic training , but more often than not will not get you the results you desire.

To gauge how hard to do exercise you should use the rate of perceived exertion scale (RPE). This is a subjective measure you ask yourself about how hard the exercise feels, from easy to very hard. Once you have learned this you can set the intensity on the machines to equate to this exertion level.

RPE scale:

20 - About to collapse the exercise is so hard, gasping for breath,

15 - Hard effort, could do 3-5 minutes max, breathing deeply.

10 - Comfortable, could do 15 minutes at this level, breathing a more

deeply than usual

5 - Easy, could do 30 minutes at this level, very slightly out of breath

0 - At home watching telly with the feet up.

The aim is to build up to be able to do more exercise at the higher exercise intensities. You should aim to exercise at between 13-16 out of 20.

Please note you DO NOT need to go into the 17 - 20 end of the scale, you are not Olympic athletes just yet, so you do not need to train like them. Regular exercise at 17-18 out of 20 is difficult to maintain long term.

What happens instead is that your perception of what a 15 out of 20 feels like changes so further down the line you are working at a harder effort level but you perceive this as easier than an untrained counter part.

Using this scale allows you to control your exercise intensity and maintain motivation. The key is to find that 15 out of 20 level and then use different training techniques.

For example a 15 out of 20 for a 4 minute sprint may be at speed 13 on the treadmill, but at 15 out of 20 for a 20 minute jog may be at speed 11.5. Using different stimulus for the training will increase your fitness levels and maintain motivation.
