If weight loss is what’s on your mind, then we are sure you must be considering both exercise and a healthy diet. Today, we are here to tell you more about ways to lose that unwanted fat using some great full body workout weight loss tips. 

Let’s just face it, full body workouts are much more effective than regular workouts, because they are more intense and target several muscles in the body at the same time. But it is important to understand how to get the most of it for great results! 

Without further ado, let’s get started! 

1. Set proper goals

Before you start a full body workout, you should be aware why you are doing it. Moreover, you should set some goals to really assess your progress. That way you will be able to keep track of the amount of fat you have lost after a given period.

Also, when you have certain fitness goals, it becomes easier to follow workouts accordingly. For instance, you want to tone up your abs, then push-ups, chin-ups, and bench presses are great to begin with. But remember, you can do everything in one go. You must know what is best for your size and weight!

Also, watch:

2. Diversify your routine

A full body workout, as the name says, must include various exercises that target each section. If you do the same routine for longer periods of time, then it will exhaust you a lot and recovery won’t happen. That’s why it is important to diversify your routine. First of all, you need to understand how many times you will be exercising, then include different exercises. This way you will see amazing results, and much faster!

3. Make sure all the muscles are being targeted

The whole point of doing a full body workout is to target all the larger muscle groups, including the chest, shoulders, triceps, biceps, back, glutes, quads, core and hamstrings. Learn about what exercise helps which muscle.

For instance, squats are good for your hamstrings and glutes, so if you only do squats, then the other muscles won’t be worked out. So be smart about it, and include different exercises that help to burn fat from your entire body.

BMI

Keep an idea of your risk of weight-related issues.

Check BMI

Also, watch:

4. Maintain high intensity

If you want a good workout, then it’s important to have intensity in your workouts. When you do workouts with high intensity, there is greater demand for blood in the muscles, which then increases your heart rate. So, do not stop moving when you exercise.

Here are some effective exercises for a full body workout:
1. Jumping jacks

This is a great full body workout, provided you move really fast. Just stand with feet hip width apart, and jump your feet open as you raise your arms in an X shape. Jump feet back together, as you lower your arms!

Also, watch:

2. Wall sit

This exercise targets your quads, glutes and hamstrings. Stand with your back to a wall. Place your feet away from the wall, as you slide your back down the wall, and lower your body until the hips, knees and ankles are at a 90-degree angle.

3. Push-ups

This exercise helps your chest, shoulders, triceps and abs. Start in a plank position, with wrists under shoulders, and core engaged. Lower your chest to the floor, keeping legs, hips and back in a straight line. Press into palms to push back up.
