Quick Weight Loss Tips for Women… by Callie Durbrow

A lack of time (which is usually just perceived, BTW) is one of the biggest road blocks to starting and maintaining a weight loss program.  The key to building a lifestyle that will help you lose weight, drop fat and get strong is to make time and stick to your weight loss goals.  Here are some quick tips to help you, the busy woman, lose weight and look great!

6 Quick Weight Loss Tips For Women:

1. Focus on intensity, not duration.  Many people feel that if they cannot commit to the gym and training for over an hour, it is not worth going.  This is completely false as you can get amazing metabolic and fat burning workouts in anywhere from 10-30 minutes.

Perform interval sprints for 30 seconds followed by a minute rest for 8-10 rounds or jump rope for 1 minute with 1 minute rest 6-8 times.  Another great way to maximize your time and burn body fat while training is to complete strength training complexes such as squat and press, thrusters or chin ups.

2. Perform complex exercises that work multiple muscle groups.  These large movements will not only save time, but they will torch the calories.  Exercise such as squats, lunges, chin ups, push ups, and mountain climbers are some of the best ways to lose body fat, get strong, and spend less time in the gym.

3. Work out in your home. If you cannot make it to the gym to complete your training session, do it at home.  Set up shop in your living room and perform some body weight circuits with lunges, squats, push ups, mountain climbers and squat jumps.  Perform a set number of each exercise and go right to the next one until you finish the set.  Rest for 60 to 90 seconds and complete another round.  Perform 3-4 rounds and prepare to feel the burn.

4. Plan your weight loss training session ahead of time.  Go into the gym with a plan and stick to it.  This will keep you focused and maximize the short time that you have.  Better yet, sign up with a group training program to get you on the right track and you will be guaranteed an intense workout in 50-60 minutes.  The best thing is that someone else plans it for you!

5. Get some great music.  Whether you are completing a sprint workout or performing a high intensity strength training session; download some great new music to pump you up and keep you focused.

6. Keep the long term goal in sight.  You want to lose body fat and get tight and toned.  This does not happen over night but you need to put in the time and effort.  The days of long and steady training sessions are gone.  Pump up the intensity (safely) and focus on the amount of work you do, not how long it takes you.

Burning fat, losing weight and developing a tight, lean body can be in your future if you set your mind and focus on working hard and smart.  Long, steady workouts will do nothing for the change in body composition we all want.  Training sessions need to be intense, short, and incorporate some resistance training.  Give these simple QUICK weight loss tips a try and see your body take shape in literally less than a month…
