What is best workout for losing weight?
Depend of what kind of your metabolism, and on which body part you need to lose weight etc, everybody is different so for this question, I suppose than nobody could answer accurately. I can advices you to try to do these exercises :- Burpees (all the body)Starting from the standing position, go down into the press up position, do one press up, bring your knees back to your chest and jump up, landing back on your feet. This is a fast, explosive exercise that will hit all the major muscle groups and increase your heart rate.- Pike press ups (upper body)Start in the press up position, do one normal press up, then flex at the waist so your backside is sticking up in the air and complete another press-up. The normal press up works all the major upper body muscles, then the pike press up works the core, the hip flexors and places a bigger load on the shoulders. If you want to make this easier or harder, experiment with putting your hands closer together or widening your stance.-Isometric holds (Working the core)Start in the plank position, holding it for 30 seconds. Then go straight into a side plank hold for another 30 seconds. Then sit on the floor, in a v-sit position (legs and upper body at 45 degrees and arms across your chest) for another 30 seconds and finish off with a side plank hold on your other side. You will have worked all your core muscles, glutes, (butt muscles) shoulders and arms in 2 minutes!
