Number One Exercise for Fat Loss

Granted there are many great fat burning exercises, but in my personal opinion since the exercise I will be discussing today combines multiple movements, muscle groups, and joint movements into one full body exercise, it is far superior to any other. This exercise will get your heart pumping and have you breathing like a freight train by the time your done.

Remember when doing any type of exercise to burn fat, it's all about the intensity of the workout not how long. For instance, did you know that performing exercises such as HIIT (high intensity interval training) can burn 900% more body fat than traditional cardio/aerobics.

Another advantage of doing high intensity exercises is that it cuts down on exercise time drastically. A 10-12 minute exercise incorporating HIIT burns just as much if not more than an hour of running. This is very beneficial for those that live a hectic lifestyle.

Next time you exercise try incorporating some form of interval training with weight or just plain sprinting using HIIT.

Enough talking, let's get down to business.

Instructions for Man Makers:

First, grab two dumbbells that you can manage effectively. You may need to go up or down in weight after your first set depending on the ease of the routine. My favorite and most versatile weights for exercise are PowerBlock Dumbbells (now available in kettlebells as well). This one unique set of dumbbells replaces as many as 34 different dumbbells which saves room and money.

Get in push-up position while grasping the dumbbells in each hand. Perform a push-up then row one dumbbell towards your midsection while balancing yourself on the other dumbbell, then lower back to the ground. Then do another push-up and repeat a row with the other dumbbell.

While still grasping the dumbbells jump your feet up towards the dumbbells (at this point you should be in a squatting position, feet outside your hands while still grasping the dumbbells).

Next, swing the weights up to should height, go down into a squat (upper legs should be parallel or slightly lower to the floor) and then stand up and shoulder press the dumbbells to full extension over head.

Return to push-up position. This is 1 rep. You should try to complete 10 reps.

Man Maker Steps:

#1 Push-up position (while grasping dumbbells)
#2 Push-up
#3 Row one dumbbell towards midsection and return to floor
#4 Push-up
#5 Repeat step #3 with the other hand
#6 Jump feet toward hands while still grasping dumbbells (you should be in a squat position at this point)
#7 Swing dumbbells to shoulder height
#8 Squat down at least parallel to floor
#9 Stand up
#10 Press dumbbells to full extension over head

This completes one repetition. Complete 10 reps for one set. Please note* Be careful not to do this exercise too fast as this can cause you to use bad form causing injury to the back or bodily injury.

Good Luck and remember to keep progressing forward. If you can't complete the full 10 reps, try decreasing the weight. If 10 reps is too easy, increase the weight.

If you prefer to work out at home, I highly recommend the Powerblock dumbbells. You can take a closer look at these revolutionary dumbbells in my FREE REPORT at my site listed below.
