Fat Loss - Balancing Flexibility And Strength

By Dan Solaris

The fast-food culture has conquered most of the globe and the world's inhabitants are succumbing to the tasty, mouth-watering drive-thru fare that just so happens to be dripping with LDL cholesterol (yes, the bad kind). Fortunately, there are a gauntlet of exercises proven to combat the surplus of caloric energy stored in love-handles and bouncing bellies.

Most fitness experts prescribe the usual combination of cardio exercises and muscle-building routines for clients struggling with weight. With the wide variety of variations to choose from it's a wonder why a lot of folks still find it a challenge to keep working out consistently.

Folks that are looking for an effective fat-loss exercise program that won't leave them gasping for breath for an hour will find Pilates the ideal choice. Most people that find workouts too difficult and tiring stop exercising after a month or so without getting closer to their goals. Remember that having fun is a big factor in working-our consistently.

Pilates exercises can also be light enough to be able to help elderly fitness buffs and those with minor injuries stay in shape. After just a few sessions, one will notice a significant improvement in the body's flexibility, posture and mental alertness.

Cardio combined with strength training is the most common exercise program prescribed for fast and effective fat loss. Incorporating Pilates sessions with these will improve fat-burning efficiency of your workouts even more.

Along with cardio exercise, resistance training through free weights or machines is needed in a good fat-loss exercise program because the extra muscle tissues help fight flab. Muscle development can lead to stiffness of however and this is where the stretches and joint-loosening moves in Pilates can come in handy.

Core-based exercises are the essentially what Pilates is about. Simultaneous effort of the muscles of the abdomen, the waist, lumbar region and buttocks allow faster calorie burn- leading to faster loss of weight due to a reduced body fat index.

Maintaining proper metabolism means conditioning the body to maximize expenditure of caloric energy. Toning-up muscle tissue through consistent limbering movements significantly raises the level of metabolism, making it easier to lose calories from body fat. - 17274
