Female Best Full-Body Workouts for Weight Loss (and Other Tips)

Pushups

You can modify this classic bodyweight exercise to suit your level and to target different muscles as needed. Check out a few pushup variations for beginners.

  1. Begin by lying on your stomach with your legs extended.
  2. Place your palms on the floor directly under your shoulders.
  3. Press into your hands and heels as you lift your chest, torso, and legs from the floor.
  4. Engage your core as you hold this position for 1 second.
  5. Slowly return to the starting position.

Lunges

You can do lunges with or without weights. Once you’ve perfected your form, you can move on to lunge variations.

  1. From standing, step your right foot forward to form a 90-degree angle with your knee, making sure your knee doesn’t extend past your ankle.
  2. Position your back knee so that it’s parallel to the floor.
  3. Pause for a moment before returning your right leg to the starting position.
  4. Do the opposite side.

Bodyweight squats

Work on perfecting your form with bodyweight squats before moving on to weights. There are plenty of squat variations to mix up your routine.

  1. Stand with your feet hip-distance apart with your arms alongside your body.
  2. Engage your core and broaden your chest as you push your hips back and down as though you’re going to sit down.
  3. Pause once your thighs are parallel to the floor.
  4. Press into your feet to lift yourself back to the starting position.

Dumbbell front squat

  1. Hold a dumbbell in each hand and place your feet hip-width apart.
  2. Bend your arms to rest the one end of each weight on your shoulders.
  3. From here, lower your hips down and back into a squat position.
  4. Explosively push up through your heels to rise to the starting position.

Dumbbell chest press

You can also try this exercise one arm at a time.

  1. Lie on your back on a bench (or for extra core stability work, an exercise ball).
  2. Position your hands above your chest, holding a dumbbell in each hand.
  3. Fully extend your arms as you press the weights straight above your shoulders.
  4. Pause for a moment before lowering the weights to the starting position.

Burpees

To vary your routine, you can always modify burpees to be easier or more challenging.

  1. Stand with your feet directly under your hips.
  2. Lower into a squat and place your hands on the floor under your shoulders.
  3. Hop your legs back to a pushup position.
  4. Do 1 pushup before jumping your feet forward.
  5. Extend your arms overhead and jump up explosively.
  6. As soon as you land, lower back down into a squat.

  7. Deadlift

    1. Stand with your feet hip-distance apart with the barbell in front of your feet.
    2. Lower your hips down and back slightly as you hinge at your hips to pick up the barbell.
    3. Push your hips forward to rise into a standing position.
    4. Position the bar slightly below your hips.
    5. Elongate your spine and bend your knees slightly.
    6. Push your hips back, bend your knees, and hinge back down to the starting position, returning the bar to the floor.

    To target muscles differently, you can do this exercise using dumbbells, giving you an extra challenge in shoulder stability and grip.

    Bench press

    1. Lie on your back on a bench.
    2. Position the barbell at chest level, holding it with your hands at shoulder-width.
    3. Engage your shoulders and core as you push the barbell off the rack before lowering it until it skims your chest.
    4. On an exhale, explosively push the bar back up the starting position.

    Leg press

    1. Press your feet into the footplate.
    2. Engage your core as you use your feet to push the footplate away from you.
    3. Extend your legs as much as possible while keeping your head and back flat against the pad.
    4. Pause for a moment, maintaining a slight bend in your knees.
    5. Slowly bend your knees to lower the footplate to the starting position.

    Create a routine that helps you set and achieve realistic, safe, and sustainable weight loss goals.

    Here are a few tips for creating an effective weight loss routine:

    • Weekly goal. Aim to exercise for at least 200 minutes per week.
    • Daily goal. Do some type of physical activity every day, even if it’s only for 15 minutes, rather than doing a few long workouts each week.
    • Order of exercise. Do the most difficult exercises first at the beginning of each workout.
    • Workout intensity. Increase the intensity of your workouts and opt for heavier weight for weightlifting exercises.
    • Recovery time. Give yourself 24 to 48 hours to recover between sessions targeting the same muscle groups.
    • Rest. Avoid fatigue and overexertion by getting plenty of rest. This includes allowing for at least one full day of rest or light activity each week.
    • Sleep. Sleep more when you need it to help to enhance your energy levels.
    • Workout variety. Change up your workouts at least once a month to prevent boredom and plateauing. This keeps your routine fresh and ensures you’re targeting different muscle groups.
    • Other types of workouts. In addition to weightlifting and bodyweight exercises, do other types of workouts such as aerobics, balancing, and stretching exercises.

 Best Muscle-Building Shoulder Exercises: Which are the best exercises for overall shoulder development.We let science decide. 141 https://keranfitness.blogspot.com 17 325 The list you're about to read is based on two factors: EMG tests, which measure electrical activity in the deltoids; and an exercise's ability to accommodate load. For example, you may be able to do an overhead barbell press with 185 pounds, but use only 35-pound dumbbells on lateral raises. More often than not, then, the press is the better choice, even if the lateral raise totally lights up the EMG. We cite research, when available, but we'll admit up front that this list reflects yet another factor: our best judgment, based on many years of lifting. For each exercise, we'll tell you why it made the list and how to use it in the context of your workouts. If you disagree with our selections, or think we missed the boat by overlooking your favor

  The Top 15 Lat Moves to Build a Stronger Back: Pull down, pull up, and row your way to building a massive back. WESTEND61 GETTY IMAGES Your workouts and training, like most parts of your life, should be based upon balance. Between hard training sessions and recovery days, upper body and lower body split, strength, and cardio, the path to a healthy, functional body are found by achieving some sort of equilibrium. That's especially true when it comes to the approach lots of guys make when they determine which muscles to target in their workouts. For many, their main aim is to build up their anteriorly positioned muscles—those on the front of your body, a.k.a. mirror muscles, like the chest, shoulders, biceps, and abs—while neglecting the muscles that aren't as immediately prominent on the posterior (back) side of their bodies. Key among those: the lats (scientific name: latissimus dorsi), the wide, fan-shaped muscle that makes up a large portion of your back. When guys focus on

CHEST SUPERSET WORKOUTS FOR MEN

 CHEST SUPERSET WORKOUTS FOR MEN  We get it—chances are that the majority of us don’t need any convincing, so we’ll keep this brief.   In terms of aesthetics, it’s all summarized with the age-old adage of “no pecs, no sex”. A big chest equals a v-shaped torso and that equals a confidence boost and more interest from potential partners. Women aren’t left out of the aesthetic benefits either; developing the pectorals will improve posture while also lifting the breasts. And speaking of posture, bigger pecs will encourage you to stand taller and straighter (to properly show them off), helping to ward off potential lower back problems. The pec minor is also an important part of balancing, creating stability for your shoulder blades, and helping maintain an upright position. Last but definitely not least are the strength gains. While we are mostly focusing on size gains over strength, you’ll definitely see a lot of upper body strength unlocked with the proper development of the pecs. This wi
