6 Best Exercises to Lose Weight Fast

When you're working out several times a week to get fit and lose weight, you want a routine that offers maximum results in the minimum amount of time. Exercise scientists have been hard at work on this particular issue, and now years of research indicates that the following 6 moves—done properly—are all you need to achieve the slim, taut body you're after.



Pushups

Push-ups is among the most popular weight loss exercises. The fact however is that they've to be done correctly to yield positive results. Push-ups strengthen the shoulders, triceps and the chest areas.

Barbell Squat

With your feet firmly planted on the floor shoulder-width apart, rest a racked barbell comfortably on the upper portion of the back — not the neck. Grasp the bar approx. one foot outside the shoulders and step outwards from the barbell rack. Draw your shoulders back and tighten the core, and slowly squat downwards until your quads are parallel with the ground. Powerfully accelerate upwards to a full standing position, pause for one second, and repeat.
Maintain strong posture throughout each squat and do NOT arch your back, as this can cause back injury.

Abdominal crunches

Abdominal crunches target the abs and are very helpful in losing belly fat fast. They can be a bit uncomfortable during the first few days, but become easier as you get wont to a routine.
 
Bent-over rows

Rows as an exercise are helpful in working out and toning major muscles specially those that are located about the upper part of the back. They're too amazing selections for working the biceps. Apart from helping in weight loss, they tone you up.

Sit-Ups

How?

Lie down on the floor with your knees bent and, if possible, hook your feet under something that will prevent them from moving. Place your hands behind your head and tense your core as you lift your torso up so your upper body forms a V shape with your thighs. Lower under control back to the start position.

Why?

Keeping it simple and fighting your bodyweight is the ideal challenge to burn fat. You don’t lose any time heading to the weights rack, meaning you’ll keep your heart rate up and your body burning.

Clean and Press

How?

Squat down with a straight back and grab the barbell with an overhand grip. In one swift movement, lift the barbell to your shoulders and sink back down into a squat. Push up through your heels and extend your arms to press the barbell above your head. Lower safely to your shoulders and drop back to the floor while maintaining a straight back.

Why?

It works your entire body, it’s intense and – here’s the best bit –it optimise your hormones to detonate body fat. It’ll also push your lactic acid levels through the roof, reducing your oestrogen and better regulate your insulin.A
