What exercise burns the most belly fat? How often should you exercise

Two Q&A’s today that are, what exercise burns the most belly fat? and how often should you exercise?

What exercise burns the most belly fat?

After training and teaching all types of people over the years i have discovered the 2 main ingredient exercise workouts that really works well.

First of all before i answer any of these question you need to understand that without getting your mindset right to keeping focused and committed to what you really want to achieve you might as well read no further.

If you are the type of person to actually apply my methods and give it a go with focus and commitment you will win trust me!

So back to the two main types of exercise you need to do to lose that belly fat. Number one is specific targeted core ab and oblique exercises that work the stomach muscles best in engaging them fully with good form and clean motion for no injuries.

It’s okay people showing off with extreme fancy exercises but in the end we are in this not to get injured but to look good, feel great and improve our lives.

The second type of exercise is correct cardio/conditioning training. This is another one that most people wanting to lose that belly fat mess up on.

It’s just that you really don’t need to spend 45 minutes on a gym machine to lose weight. Just give me 10 minutes of your time and you will be shocked what you can achieve!

How often should you exercise?

Another interesting question and really it depends on what you goals are. Let’s say you want to compete as an athlete. Well you better get training everyday, plus more.

But like i say the average working person just wants to be able to not have the belly bulge creeping over their jeans. They want to slide back into those jeans with ease.

Here’s a success story about my new 10 Minute Abs Program

“I lost 10lbs in the first 21 days, and more
importantly now can fit into jeans that i
haven’t been able to wear for years!”

Why I Prefer Quick Fat Burning Exercises For Men and Women At Home

Now here is a good point behind why i prefer quick fat burning exercises for men and women at home, rather than boring old slow ones.

I’m going to let you into my reasons why i don’t bother training or teaching long workouts.

You see, for the average guy or girl they don’t want to be an athlete, so they really don’t need to train and workout for hours on end.

When i trained for a martial arts competition i did lot’s of hours training a day. But that was because if i didn’t train hard all the time the other guys that i was facing in the contest would have an advantage on me.

Having good stamina and conditioning of the body is a must for all training athletes, but like i mentioned before it’s not everyone’s cup of tea to be an athlete, and that’s when it clicked for me helping train others.

It’s a long gone with the days of stepping on a treadmill for an hour, or any other type of machine. Personally i prefer and recommend you master lifting your own bodyweight, as it’s a total different game compared to regular weight training.

Bodyweight training really engages more muscles at a time than isolated weight training movements, but there is definitely room for both if you like to use the gym.

Quick fat burning exercises for men benefits

Here’s a quick question i get asked quite a bit… ” Hey Richard, can you really get in shape with just 10 minutes spare?”

My reply is absolutely. You just need to know what to do with your time, and that is what really counts. For example lot’s of guys want to get rid of the gut that’s been bothering them for years.

You will even see the guys with big muscles on the upper part of the body but a little pot belly hanging over.

The two main factors for this is your diet is not on point and your exercises are not targeting the core correct. Here’s a good post speaking about plank exercise benefits.

Quick fat burning exercises for women benefits

Now a quick 10 minute workout is perfect for most women out there wanting to slide back into those slim jeans because it saves time and gets you the results you want.

Just like i said with the guys, make sure you get your diet on point, meaning eat whole natural foods and less processed sugary foods that’s going to spike your insulin levels and put you into fat building mode.

You need to be in fat burning mode which a quick rapid workout will boost your metabolism to burn fat throughout the day after your quick workout.

What you believe you will achieve

I got taught this saying many years ago by my father, and it’s stuck with me throughout my life. And now i’m passing this saying into your life.

If you don’t believe you can do something, the chances are you won’t do it. So start changing the way you think about things differently.

Lose the excuses why you can’t, and start saying why you can and why you will. “You just gotta get out there and do it!”

Make sure you check out my Free Fat Burning videos as they will help you get started in getting in the best shape you’ve been in a long time.

So there you have it for today, and this is why i prefer quick fat burning exercises for men and women at home or the gym rather than slow workouts.

How Much Cardio to Lose Weight? And The Best Cardio to Lose Weight

In today’s post we have two common question which are, how much cardio to lose weight?, and what’s the best cardio to lose weight.

These are two great questions, and i think you will really benefit by applying action to both of my answers.

You see, it’s great reading my blog posts every week on how to get in the best shape of your life, but reading and doing are two different things.

If you haven’t started applying my methods yet, then what are you waiting for? Cut the excuses and just dive right in. You owe it to yourself and your health to take care of your body. (We only have one)

I personally feel cardio is a big part of weightloss. But this is where people miss the point. Cardio is important, but what’s more important is the right type of cardio exercises which will work best for you.

Notice how i said for you… This means find what works for you and stick with it.

How Much Cardio to Lose Weight?

how much cardio to lose weightSo first let’s look at how much cardio to lose weight. This is a very open question, so i will break it down for you to understand easier.

First how much cardio workout in the week? For the average person who just wants to lose weight so they can get back into those tight jeans, or slim dress, you only need to workout around 3 times a week.

The next part of the question would be how long do my cardio sessions have to be? This is where i’m different to other teachings.

You don’t need to spend hours per workout unless you really want to. Most people i speak to don’t want to workout for hours, and to be honest i don’t.

I’m all about having a quick time cardio session. This means no longer than 15-20 minutes, as long as you are doing the correct type of exercises. That is what you will learn in the next part of this post.

Best Cardio to Lose Weight?

Best cardio to lose weightLastly we have the question of what’s the best type of cardio to lose weight. Like i mentioned before you really don’t need long boring workouts to burn fat effectively.

The type of cardio exercises i recommend you do is bodyweight ones. This means no equipment needed, no gym membership and you can exercise outdoors if you have the good weather. (A bit unpredictable with English weather)

A great example would be this blog post i did on the squat thrust. It’s a great starter exercise, but it does the trick.

I have tons of bodyweight exercises i have collected and created over the years of training in my secret log manual. I have put a large number of my best ab exercises on my martial abs program.If you haven’t got it then you are missing out on the most effective belly shrinking exercises around.

To keep you on track to your body transformation success just remember this special quote – “The greatest wealth is health”


Fat Melting Stomach Exercises For Men and Women At Home

So before we dive in to today’s post all about stomach exercises for men and women at home or at the gym, i’m just giving you the heads up that i have a unique program coming out soon which is all about getting you great body transformation results without spending hours at the gym.

It’s a must for all busy people who need to squeeze in a workout and still get fantastic results.

For me stomach exercises for men and women are a must that your body just can’t afford to miss along with eating good whole natural foods for to fuel the body.

Stomach Exercises For Men

Stomach-exercises-for-menWhen i teach my martial fitness style abs training to the guys, they always have the same outlook in common.

They don’t want that bulky stiff bodybuilder look, but they want that strong toned body look just like Mr Bruce Lee.

Now yes most guys out there wouldn’t achieve Bruce’s body as he trained thousands of hours on it. But at least you have some to be inspired by.

I would rather you have your own unique fit body and strong abs, because in the end of the day our bodies are all different so the outcome of training hard gives us slightly different results but in the end the results will come in with hard work and that’s important.

Stomach Exercises For Women

When looking at stomach exercises for women i also know that when i speak to them the main result of training the abs is not to have a six pack as such, but rather to have that flat stomach toned look.

Stomach-exercises-for-womenThe average woman out there struggling with her weight just wants to be free from that annoying stubborn belly fat that just won’t budge.

As long as you slide back into those jeans without a huge breath in, or once the top button is done up, feeling like it could ping across the room at any minute.

Listen carefully… All you need to do is find the reason why… Once you get the core of that reason why, it will be the full driving force behind you transforming your body.
So today’s post i want to give you some of my top stomach toning posts from the past that i think will help you out.

Here is 5 instructionals to help you start getting in the best shape of your life...

Exercise For Thighs and a Lean Sculpted Body

A question i had in a couple of days ago from a lady who wanted to learn a top fat burning exercise for thighs.

So i am going to share with you a great thigh exercise which only takes a few minutes to complete and it hits the thighs hard. (In a good way)

Quick Exercise For Thighs

Exercise For ThighsWorking the legs is important as it’s the foundation of our bodies. Check out a recent post i did on leg workouts for men and women.

Let’s now take a look at a quick thigh exercise for you to do at home or in a gym.

First you want to make sure you have a little space around you. Once you have your space, next position yourself into a lunge stance with one leg in front and one leg behind.(Check my recent leg workouts post to see how the lunge looks if you don’t know).

Once you have the lunge position you will next jump up and switch your legs around so you have the opposite legs in the position to when you first started.

So if you have the right leg at the back and left at the front for starting out, you will want to jump upwards and switch legs to right leg in front and left leg behind.

This is a on the spot exercise so you just need to stay in one place.

If you are new to these type of balance exercises, just take your time to get use to it.

You will wobble a little and may lose balance a bit, but the aim is to keep good clean form.

This exercise for the thighs works because you really have to push off with your legs to switch them over effectively.

The better you become at this exercise the higher you can jump. It’s also good to point out that when landing the jump, to make sure you bend your legs downwards just like a standard on the spot lunge.

30 Seconds Exercise For Thighs

You will want to make sure that you look to do this exercise continus for 30 seconds none stop, then have a 15-30 seconds break and continue on for round 2.

Trust me, this makes your legs work hard and they may ache a little but that’s only because you are actually working you legs harder than a casual none effective leg exercise.

I’m a big believer in mixing things up to keep your workouts fresh and exciting, so just add this little gem into a current leg workout you are doing.

If you are not doing a leg workout right know whether you are a man or a woman make sure you get on this!

That’s all for today. Make sure you take action.

Leg Workouts For Men and Women: These Leg Exercises Work!

Today we are going to look at some great leg workouts for men and women which can be done anywhere with just a little space. I’m going to run through the leg exercises so you can start using them right away no excuses.

The legs are the foundation to our bodies and i feel most people tend to leave them out a little compared to exercising other parts of the body.

Now if you use the exercises in good form you will definitely feel the burn of your muscles working hard and toning up, as there is no need to do hundreds of reps because we are looking for quality. I explain more about this in my 200 situps story.

I have separated two different exercises from men and women but by all means try both as they are two bodyweight exercises that i love to do and teach.

Leg Workouts For Men

Leg-Workouts-For-MenThe first leg exercise is going to be what i call the lunge kicker.

So we start off in the standard lunge position with the front leg flat on the floor and the rear leg on your toes.

We then bring your rear knee towards the floor direction until around a few inches away from the floor and then lunge back up with that same rear leg throwing a kick out. (Check picture)

Once you have kicked outwards successfully, bring it back to the starting position for the lunge again.

Note: You will fall over a little. (Well i did when i first learned the lunge kicker :)

Leg Workouts For Women

Leg-workouts-for-womenThe next leg exercise to really work our lower body is the Mount Fuji Squat. This exercise really gets the legs burning in no time at all!

First start with your legs positioned like you are sitting on a horse or mini mount fuji. Feet flat on the ground, back the back up straight and looking forwards straight ahead.

Next squat slowly down to as far as a stopping point occurs while making sure you are keeping your back upright.

Once you get to your lowest squat position, hold for 5 seconds and slowly return to the upwards starting position.

Why These Leg Exercises Work

So there you have two fantastic leg exercises and workouts for both men and women.

If you can commit yourself to make that change and start transforming your mind and body today you will feel the difference within weeks.

I have countless stories of people reaping the benefits of exercises the right way with learning the right mindset. I truly believe it’s one of the leading vehicles to your success in life for anything you do.

Today is the best time to start…

Plank Exercise Benefits: Why Plank Exercises? And The Oblique Shredder Side Plank Exercise

Today’s a special day, not just for the fact that you are going to learn the plank exercise benefits, and why plank exercises are great plus not to forget the side plank exercise which tightens the love handles…

No no no my friends, not just because of all that… But it’s my dads birthday.

We met with  my uncles and aunties today to catch up on this special day which was great to be altogether, and everyone had a laugh (Good times).

By now if you have been following this blog over the past year or so you will see lot’s of Free top tips for helping you in the mind, body and spirit of living.

Plank Exercise Benefits

I remember being shown this plank exercise variation years back, and to be honest, i was a young gun who thought it didn’t look much. ‘Oh how i was wrong!’

Once my teacher ran through all the positions it was my go, and i can honestly say they work.

The main benefits of the plank exercises, are that people who have trouble doing situps because of back problems really reap the benefits from the plank exercises.

Cut a long story short i was shaking all over the place as this certain plank exercise really engaged the muscles and works the core hard. ( Even Borat agrees with me)

Plank Exercises Work Wonders

Plank-ExercisesSo let’s look a simple front plank exercise. As you can see in the picture to the left demonstrating the front plank, it really works the whole body.

The main reason for this is that it’s what i call a stability exercise.

Basically put, it works on your balance motion and that is why people tend to do the front plank for part of their abs training routine, because our abs are the stability muscles that help keep our posture in positions.


Side Plank Exercise

Now to finish off i thought i would throw in a side plank exercise that really tightens those love handles on the sides.

To turn the heat up on this exercise you will want to hold the side plank and then slowly move your hips up towards the sky and back down towards the ground.

This side plank exercise alone has become lot’s of my clients secret weapon to help tighten up and shrink their waistline.

Now don’t forget that for the best results in effective fatloss and muscle tone you need to mix things up with other routines just like my post on best abs workout for men and women.

Make sure you try out these great plank exercises. They work, but like anything just need to put the time in and take action now.

Have Fun : )
