Bodyweight Cardio For Fat Burning

If you’re sick of doing boring cardio on machines and not getting results, or even if you want to switch up your fat burning interval training, then you’re about to discover a unique new way of burning fat called bodyweight cardio circuit training.

Not only will you elevate your heart rate and burn calories, but you’ll get to use fun, fast, and effective unique bodyweight exercises that will strengthen your core, build a small amount of muscle, and burn belly fat.

Plus, you’ll reduce your risk of suffering from the dark side of traditional cardio – overuse injuries – that occur when you do the same thing over and over and over again, such as running on a treadmill or using a useless elliptical machine.

Bodyweight Cardio Workouts

For bodyweight cardio workouts, you can do them anytime, anywhere, as they often involve absolutely NO equipment. You don’t need machines, you don’t
need dumbbells, and you don’t need fancy, expensive gym memberships. With bodyweight exercises, you can do your workouts in parks, hotel rooms, or
even your bedroom at home.

In some of the more entertaining bodyweight cardio workouts I’ve put together, you’ll use a system called the 5 rounds of 5 minutes. In each of the rounds, 5 bodyweight unique exercises have been chosen in a strategic order to help you work one muscle group while another one rests. That’s the secret to helping you go hard for all 5 rounds without fatigue or overuse.

You’ll do one minute per exercise before moving on to the next bodyweight movement. At the end of the 5 exercise circuit, you get to rest for one minute before moving on to another group of five bodyweight moves.

In all, you’ll do 25 minutes of bodyweight exercises with 5 minutes of rest. You’ll be truly amazed at what you can accomplish in just a half an hour of
bodyweight training. With exercises such as spiderman climbs, narrow stance bodyweight squats, punch-kick combos, T-pushups, rotating lunges, and many,
many more, you’ll get a ton of variety and work up a sweat with bodyweight cardio.

You can also use bodyweight exercises to replace interval training at the end of your resistance training workouts as well. For fat burning, I’ve found the best results come from workouts that start with a bodyweight warm-up followed by supersets of resistance training (often using dumbbells), and then finished with interval training.

Recently, I’ve found that replacing traditional interval training – such as sprints on a bike – with 10-20 minutes of bodyweight exercises in the bodyweight cardio format works just as well for fat burning. So you can use bodyweight exercises in this situation as well.

All in all, nothing beats the versatility of bodyweight exercise training for your workouts. These workouts, done anytime or anywhere, are a lot more
effective than most people realize, provided that you know a lot of bodyweight exercises – and that’s what you’ll get in the bodyweight cardio program. Looking forward to your results with this unique bodyweight training system.
