2 Easy Workouts to Lose Weight Fast

Weight loss does not have to be difficult, you don't have to spend hours in the gym working out to get results. If you are just starting your weight loss journey, start with simple workouts. Include a few simple workout routines into your regime. Make an effort to eat clean and drink plenty of water, you will see results in no time.

Here are some examples of easy workouts as well as the benefits of incorporating simple exercises into your weight loss routine.

Benefits of Simple Workouts

To lose fat, you need to reduce your calorie intake and increase your activity level. The goal is to get into a calorie deficit where you eat fewer calories than you burn.

If you want to lose about a pound of fat in a single week, your calorie deficit should be around 500 calories for the day. The easiest thing to do is find out how many calories you need to consume to lose weight by using a fitness app like My Fitness Pal. You might be tempted to start a high-intensity workout regime to see fast results. However, as a beginner, it is best to start with low-intensity easy workouts. Here are some of the benefits of easy exercise:

Prevents Excessive Fatigue

Easy exercise prevents exhaustion and makes it easier for you to continue your day to day activities after working out. Sometimes high-intensity exercise can leave you fatigued making it difficult for you to carry out other tasks throughout the day. Doing housework and completing errands throughout the day also contribute to your daily calorie burn.

You Can Exercise Every Day

Low intensity, simple workouts allow you to workout every day without taking too many breaks from exercising. The goal is to burn as many calories as you need to burn in order to lose weight. Heavy workouts can lead to burnout which could affect how often you can exercise.

Prevent Injury

Easy workouts reduce the risk of injury and over -exhaustion, which can stop you from exercising at all.

Reduce Appetite

Intense exercise increases the appetite therefore, you end up eating more and consuming more calories. To burn those calories, you need to work out more. Light exercise rarely increases the appetite, this will make it easier to consume the recommended amount of calories for your weight loss goals.

Two Simple Workout Routines

Here are two simple yet effective workout routines to try at home:

Suitable for Beginners

This exercise plan is suitable for people who rarely exercise. If you live a sedentary lifestyle, this workout plan will motivate you to get up and move your body. The goal here is to make your workout sessions easy for you to manage. These workouts do not require any special equipment or gym clothes, they are easy, manageable, and straightforward.

Beginngers Workout Plan

-Walk at a steady pace for seven minutes

-Perform lunges for seven minutes

-Beginners push-ups (on your knees or against the wall) for seven minutes

-Walk at a fast pace for 7 minutes

Note: Perform this workout three times a day to speed up the weight loss process.

You can do this exercise plan at home, at your workplace, or at a park or running track. Exercise is better when it's done in groups, especially as a beginner. Ask your friends or family members to join in with your workout routine. Also, remind yourself to complete your workout sessions by setting an alarm on your phone. Burn more calories by taking the stairs instead of the elevator, get off the bus a few stops earlier, and walk the rest of the way. Instead of driving everywhere walk whenever you get the chance.

Workout Plan for Intermediate Exercisers

This workout routine is suitable for people who exercise already. If you exercise at least three times a week and you want to break that plateau, to burn more fat then this is plan is for you. The workouts are easy for the intermediate level but they are not too difficult or intense. The aim is to provide you with an effective, low impact workout to help you burn more calories without burning out or injuring yourself.

This workout routine is an additional activity to help you burn more calories. Therefore, you still need to continue with your normal workout routine, just add an extra 30 to 40 minutes of exercise to boost fat loss.

-If you go to the gym or run in the morning, finish your day by adding a 30 to 40-minute brisk walk.

-If you usually workout in the evening, take a walk during your lunch break at work or walk to work if you can.

The aim of this workout routine is to shock the body and boost the metabolism. When you do the same workout regime for a long period, your body stops responding to it. You need to change your workout or add some extra activity to break the plateau. Adding 30 to 40 minutes of movement to your daily routine will speed up your metabolism and quicken the weight loss process.

Diet

When we say diet, we don't mean a super restrictive eating plan that will eventually make you feel miserable. We mean, small lifestyle changes that will give you long-term results. Here are some small changes you can make to boost your weight loss efforts.

-Cut out desserts, sweets and other processed sugar for one week, eat fruits instead

-Replace all soda, carbonated drinks, and processed juices with water and fruit water. Make your own fruit water by adding sliced apples, lemon, cucumber, and mint to your water to change the taste and make it more refreshing and appetizing.

-Cut out simple and processed carbs like white bread and pasta. Eat wholegrain versions and add plenty of lean protein and green vegetables to your diet. If you just can't give up your French Fries, make your own low oil, low salt version, or opt for homemade sweet potato fries instead.

Conclusion

Commit yourself to perform these simple workouts and make simple changes to your diet. You should start seeing results within a few weeks. When you do start seeing results, this should motivate you to keep going and to continue pushing yourself to become a healthier, happier version of yourself.

If changing your diet and exercising seems overwhelming, focus on working out first, and change your diet later. Make small changes by cutting out soda first, drink carbonated water with lemon, cucumber or frozen strawberries first. Then work your way up to reduce sugary foods, eat more fruit and less processed carbohydrates. Eventually, your body will become accustomed to healthier food, the goal is to simplify the weight loss process to make it manageable and achievable.
