The program design of a fat loss exercise program needs to be considered. Not all exercise programs are the same; you need to find one that works for you. Weight training and interval training are great fat loss exercise techniques that will give you great results.

When we train using a program that is poorly designed and doesn’t give us what we want, in terms of results. We must make changes and see what we are doing and how we are doing the exercises. Sometimes reassessing and making changes will get you better results and you will be more effective during your training sessions.

Weight training not only gives you bigger muscles, but they also increase your metabolism. The resistance that we train with increases our body’s metabolic activity well after our exercise session causing the body to increase its fat burning capacity throughout the day and night.

Bicep curls, leg extensions, and hamstring curls are exercises that focus on a one joint motion. When you isolate the movements, you are not effectively burning much fat. Exercises that optimize more joint movements are better at burning more fat.

Studies confirm that low repetition weight training helps increase the body’s fat burning activity. In addition, exercises that use more joints such as, split squats, push ups, chin ups, rows, step ups, lunges, dead lifts and squats have shown to burn more calories and result in burning more body fat,

High intensity interval training is better than slow aerobic exercise. The quick burst activity have residual effects and promote metabolic activity even after the exercise session.

Interval training causes the body to function in a lowered oxygen state. This causes the body to work even harder to bring oxygen to the muscles to repair, replenish and remove waste from the muscles. The increased metabolic activity of the muscles increases its energy consumption and promotes greater fat burning.

Program design needs to be assessed in order to get the fat loss exercise results that you wish. Finding the perfect program is the key to getting ripped abs. When you incorporate weight training and interval training, you will be better able to get fat loss results quicker and easier.
