Fat Loss Workouts

Cardio equipment isn’t needed for high powered fat loss workouts.  Many people skip workout out all together because they think they need to be at a gym or need some special cardio machine like a treadmill or elliptical machine that will give them a better fat loss workout.  The truth is you can do fat loss workouts anywhere with bodyweight exercises used in circuits.  Speed up your metabolism with these bodyweight circuit exercises and discover how you can not only get a great workout without equipment, you can also do it very quickly!

Fat Burning Bodyweight Circuit Exercises

When you travel, you worry about missing your workouts and eating poorly.  You must plan ahead for both (apples and almonds for planes, trains, & automobiles) and bodyweight circuits for “no-equipment fat loss workouts”.

And while I have bodyweight exercises that are just as hard as the bench press and barbell squat in one of my bodyweight workouts, today we’ll focus on replacing intervals with bodyweight circuits for fat loss workouts that get results fast.

Bodyweight Fat Loss Workout Template

a) Pick 3 lower body exercises

b) Pick 3 upper body exercises

c) Alternate between a lower and upper body exercise without rest, till you are done all 6 exercises

d) Rest a minute.

e) Repeat 2-3 more times until you are done 20 minutes

Here is an example of a great fat loss workout circuit that doesn’t require any equipment so it can be done at home or on the road when traveling.

1) Prisoner Squat (12 repetitions)
2) Elevated Pushups (8 reps per side)
3) Single-Leg Deadlift (10 reps per side)
4) Close-grip Pushups (As many reps as possible)
5) Jumping Jacks (30-60 reps)
6) Cross-Body Mountain Climber (12 reps per side)

That’s actually a really advanced fat loss workout so let’s slow it down a bit for beginners with a few breaks using planks (not really a break but it will slow things down and allow you to catch your breath a bit while working your core)

1) Wall Squat (8 reps)
2) Kneeling Elevated Pushup (5 reps per side)
3) Lying 1-leg Hip Extension (8 reps per side)
4) Plank (30 second hold)
5) Jumping Jacks (5-10 reps)
6) Side Plank (15 second hold per side)

Fat loss workouts can be quick and effective without having to do boring cardio for hours.  Check out this 12 minute fat loss workout and a 7 minute fat loss workout that is perfect for when you are short on time but can’t skip your workout.  Bootcamp exercises and bootcamp workouts are the ultimate fat loss workout that can be done anywhere.
