4-Week Fat Loss Plan
Description
This exercise routine was taken from Men's Health Magazine's web site. "Exercising to lose your gut is simple—it's all about your muscles. Muscle contraction requires fuel, like an engine does. The more your muscles work, the more you burn. This is why total-body weight training trumps cardio alone. Building muscle also increases the size of your "engine" and increases your metabolism, so you're burning calories even when you're not exercising. The point: Don't dismiss this workout because it only has six exercises. They're all you'll need to burn fat, build muscle, and look better than ever." This routine is intended to be performed 3 days per week with at least one day of rest in between sessions. The exercises listed here are to be performed one set per circuit, performing a total of 3 circuits with 2 minutes of rest in between circuits.
