Weighting it Out - Your Guide to Using Weight Lifting to Lose Weight
Weight lifting helps achieve
weight loss goals because
it helps boost your metabolism,
which generates additional
fat burning enzymes, and your
body subsequently burns more
fat.
There is some conflicting
information on weight lifting
and weight loss goals, however.
One expert has stated that
if a person is more than 25
pounds overweight that they
should set the weight training
aside or make it very minimal
until aerobic and other forms
of exercise have gotten them
within 25 pounds of their
ideal weight.
The reason that extreme obesity
and weight lifting don't work
well for weight loss is because
obese people often tend to
add muscle easily while they
in turn resist losing weight.
What some weight loss and
weight lifting gurus tell
these obese folks is to concentrate
their exercise and weight
loss efforts in the realm
of aerobic exercise until
they have gotten their weight
down to less than 25 pounds
over their ideal body weight.
At this point they can then
add the weight lifting to
their weight loss and exercise
regimen. A person, for example,
who is 40 pounds overweight,
is recommended to do 30-45
minutes of aerobic activity
six days each week. It is
further suggested that their
weight loss exercise regiment
be two different forms of
aerobic exercise practiced
on alternate days.
Once they get to within 24
pounds of their ideal weight
then they can cut their aerobic
exercise back to four days
a week and use the other two
days for weight lifting. This
is considered the ideal weight
training and weight loss method.
