April 15, 2011 | Author: Leigh Bannam | Posted in Weight Loss

Have you reached the point yet, where you are fed up enough with the fat that you see in the mirror every day, that you are ready to do something about it?

The rest of this article will be important to you, only if you answered yes to the question posed.

If you want to lose the fat that you see, when you look at your body in a mirror, you will have to do some form of fat burning exercise. You will also have to alter your eating routines, but the exercise is far more important.

Exercise Speeds Up Your Metabolism

To lose the unwanted fat on your body, you must increase your metabolism. You can only increase your metabolism through exercise. When you increase your metabolism, you burn the food that you have recently consumed more quickly – for energy. Then you will begin to burn the fat on your body for energy.

When you speed up your metabolism, you burn fat all day long – even when you are not exercising. This is known as “the thermogenic effect of exercise”.

Fat Burning Exercise and Achieving The Thermogenic Effect

There are several factors that will determine how effective your exercise is in raising your metabolism, and therefore how much fat you will burn. Some of the critical factors are the type of exercise that you do, how often you do it, and how much time you spend doing it.

There is one more key factor. It is the intensity of your movement, while exercising.

But the most important factor is the type of exercise you will be doing.

What Exercise Is Good For Fat Loss

There are two broad categories of exercise. They are aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise.

There is one type of exercise that is most commonly associated with anaerobic exercise for fat loss and that is strength training, which is also called weight training. Examples of aerobic exercise, that are commonly used to bring about fat loss, are jogging, walking, swimming and bicycle riding.

Strength training results in more fat loss and faster fat loss, than you will get from aerobic exercise. However, many people find that strength training does not appeal to them. They elect to do a form of aerobic exercise instead, which also is effective in bringing about fat loss. It is worth mentioning, that if you do both strength training and a form of aerobic exercise, it brings about the most efficient fat loss.

What Form Of Exercise Will You Do?

Will you do an aerobic exercise routine or a strength training routine? Or will you do both? Once you decide on the form of exercise that you will do, you will discover that there are several other questions that you will need to answer. A few of these are: how much time should you spend doing your exercise routine?, how often should you exercise?, and what is the correct level of exertion for you?

To lose that unwanted fat that you see, when you look at yourself in the mirror, you will need to learn more about exercise that brings about fat loss.
