Today you’re going to do a full body, fat burning, strength workout in 10 minutes or less.
Today’s workout has a special purpose.
It’s specifically designed as a full body workout, because full body weight training is really the most effective way to lose fat and gain strength over fifty.
One of the biggest mistakes I see women make when trying to lose fat and achieve their healthiest fittest lives over fifty is they focus only on cardio.
It’s easier to go for a walk, attend an aquafit class, or go to zumba than it is to lift weights.
The problem is, the weight doesn’t drop off and the body doesn’t feel as firm or as strong as it once did.
Cardio is great for your heart and your health, and nutrition absolutely matters,
but if fitting into your old wardrobe, while feeling firm, strong and energized are your main goals, the only way to achieve that is through weight training.
That’s because muscle is your powerhouse. It burns fat even at rest, and creates strength.
With age muscle declines and no cardio class can give you back your lean muscle, only weight training can.
So, today you’re going to do a quick weight training workout that has the potential to burn more fat for up to 72 hours after your workout.
In order to ensure we’re revving up the metabolism, we’ve got to touch on as many muscles as quickly as we can, so we’re doing compound movements.
Compound movements ask you to move multiple muscle groups all at the same time.
More muscle moving equals more lean muscle strength which means you’ll revv up your metabolic rate and burn more fat, all while strengthening and firming your body.
It’s a win win!
Ok, it’s time! Grab your weights and let’s get started! (and if your balance is off a bit, grab a chair too).
