Full Body Workout To Lose Weight

If you want to lose weight you are better off with a full body workout than your normal split body routines that bodybuilders do. If you look at the educated masses (who knows weight lifting is good for weight loss), they often adopt a body building routine. Which is fine and dandy but if they have tried to look for better ways, they'd have found out about full body workouts very effective.

In their quest for getting slimmer, these people either focus on cardio or weight training (with split routines i.e chest & back on Monday, legs on Wednesdays, arms and abs on Friday). But here lies the problem, if you are just working one body part per workout, you are not putting your body in residual metabolic condition after the workout.

Anyone who have been trying to build muscle or lose fat, knows that you don't burn fat during the workout, You burn when you are resting, When your resting metabolic rate is higher. That's why I am suggesting a full body workout routines which elevates your Resting metabolic rate higher and it's ideal for fat loss.

From my experience, 3 -4 days workout with full body focus will give you great results. Here your workout should look like this...

Monday/Wednesday/Friday

Chest : Incline bench press, dumbbell fly ( 3 reps X 8 sets)

Back : Pull ups (3 X 8)

Shoulders : Arnold press or Seated dumbbell press (3 X 8)

Biceps : barbell curls ( 3 X 8)

Triceps : Dips and pulley pushdown (3 X 8)

Legs : Squat, Dead lift and good mornings (3 X 8 )

As you can notice I am asking you to lift heavy with small reps and high sets. This will build not only build your muscles but also functional strength in your body.
