What are some full-body exercises for weight loss?

Generally speaking, we all hate obesity, and obesity not only has a great impact on our image, but also causes great harm to our body. Therefore, friends who are severely obese will think of many ways to lose weight, and the best way to lose weight is to do more exercise, especially exercises that can lose weight all over the body. So, what are the exercises for whole-body weight loss? Let’s find out!

a. Walking

b. Running

Many scientific studies have confirmed that running is one of the best ways to keep fit. Anyone of any age can start running. The large number of runners and fitness enthusiasts around the world is the best proof of this. Moreover, running is a good way to lose weight: every kilometer you run can burn about 75 kcal (314 kjoules).

When running, the body should be relaxed and slightly leaning forward; the upper limbs should swing naturally back and forth, and the legs should swing lightly; the forefoot should land first, and then transition to the heel. When running, there should be a clear rhythm in your steps and arm swings so that the whole body moves in a coordinated and graceful manner, reducing the chance of injury.

The running speed is generally controlled at 7.2-9 km/h, and this speed can be maintained for a longer time. Generally speaking, if you persist in jogging for more than 20 minutes until you at least sweat slightly, the effects of weight loss and fitness will be more obvious.

Just like walking, running doesn’t require a lot of equipment, there’s no membership fee, you just open the door and you can get fit. In addition, people who run regularly will tell you that the feeling of comfort and relaxation after running is very satisfying. Although the muscles may feel a little sore, this also shows that fitness is quite effective.

c. Climbing stairs

In today's fast-paced, high-efficiency and stressful life, many people complain that they don't have time to exercise, even though their bodies desperately need it. This requires finding opportunities and squeezing out time to exercise. Climbing stairs is a very simple and easy aerobic exercise, and it can also achieve a high intensity in a short period of time.

According to measurements by sports medicine experts, the amount of energy a person uses to climb 1 meter is equivalent to walking 28 meters on flat ground. The energy consumed by climbing is 10 times that of sitting still, 5 times that of walking, 1.8 times that of running, and 2 times that of swimming. Climbing stairs burns four times more calories than walking and 29% more calories than morning jogging. A woman weighing 40 kg burns 200 kcal (837 kJ) by climbing stairs for 10 minutes!

In fact, if you want to lose weight through exercise, you don’t necessarily need to hire a personal trainer. We ourselves are the best coaches. The above methods are very effective in losing weight, and can also perfectly shape the body, get rid of excess fat, make our figure better, and become healthier!
