Repeated bouts of high intensity exercise, albeit with short duration, create a more targeted fat loss approach. By including multi-joint, or compound, movements in your exercise program, you will dramatically increase flexibility, strength, and weight loss results in your exercise program.

Resistance training with just the resistance of your body, or body weight training, can be some of the most powerful and effective exercise you can consider when choosing a program that aims to provide you with noticeable results. It is misguided to think that lifting heavy weights is necessary for for better fat loss results.

Advanced coordination and training techniques are usually unnecessary to achieve optimal results with a strength training program aimed at fat loss. The majority of people who seek a personal trainer are exercising to increase endurance, feel better, and lose weight. In order to best attain these goals, I advocate the use of body weight resistance training in accordance with a dynamic and systematic approach to program design. Common examples of effective body weight exercises include lunges, planks, pull ups, squat thrusts, burpees, and push ups.

All of the above examples are efficient with belly fat loss because they are considered to be compound, or multi-joint, movements. Whole body movements are proven to increase the number of calories spent inside and outside of the gym, while simultaneously improving fat loss results.
