realbuzz.com's Top 10 Rules for Fat Burning Exercises

LONDON, July 13, 2010 - It's still not too late to lose the excess fat ahead of any beach breaks
you may be planning. realbuzz.com the healthy active lifestyle website has
gathered together their top 10 rules that should help you burn off that extra
fat before heading to the beach to show off the newly toned you!

    1. Be intense with your exercise - Don't be fooled by the so-called fat
       zone. Train hard, the harder you exercise the more calories you burn
       and this is what really counts when losing the fat.

    2. Choose your exercises carefully - There is no such thing as the
       'ultimate' calorie torching activity. You have to have a consistent
       and regular activity that you enjoy doing that will ultimately allow
       you to burn off the fat. Energy is burned off by how much effort you
       put in, how skilled you are at it, and how long and often you
       participate in it.

    3. Exercising larger muscles - serious fat burning activity uses the
       large muscle groups of the body - thighs, chest and back. In the gym
       you are better off using the rower than an arm cranking machine!

    4. Sustainable exercise development - To really get rid of the calories
       you need to be doing a fat burning exercise for a reasonable period
       of time. So whilst skipping is a great form of exercise it's not if
       you can only do it for three minutes. You need to have longer period
       of exercise to achieve a greater level of calorie loss.

    5. Interval Training - Where you mix hard efforts with bouts of recovery.
       This is one of the best ways of maximising calorie expenditure. It
       improves aerobic fitness and makes use of limited time.

    6. Carry the exercise load - Activities such as running and walking use
       up far more calories than swimming or cycling as you are bearing your
       body weight against gravity.

    7. Running on empty - exercising in the morning on an empty stomach does
       use up fat stores, but does lead to a low level of energy supply and
       subsequently you may not be able to exercise for as long as you
       should. So ensure you have digested something that will allow for
       that extra 20 minutes!

    8. Go for that 'after burn' - One of the best things of doing exercise is
       that the fat burning benefits continue long after you have finished
       in the shower. This is called 'after burn' and is far greater if
       you have been working at 75% maximum heart rate - another reason to
       choose the high intensity exercises!

    9. Increase exercise intensity - Make sure that you keep pushing your
       exercise bar higher! Push your body to the next level and ensure
       that you make the most out of your exercise routines. Increase your
       intensity!

    10. Be a fidget - Maximise your daily fat burning by being a fidget.
        Don't just stand or sit, wiggle your toes, shake a leg, get up and
        move about - it all accounts for fat burning..
