This article will attempt to explain the essentials of using exercise as a tool to influence maximum fat burning. You will learn an approach to exercise which targets your own unique body type and is designed to be the most effective fat burning exercise for your body type
We'll start with the 2 primary types of exercise: aerobic, and anaerobic:
Aerobic exercise is essentially a low-intensity, endurance type of exercise. The aerobic system runs at a pace from slow to moderate. The heart rate falls in the range of between 127 to 130 beats per minute (bpm). Examples of aerobic exercises include walking, treadmill, bicycling, light jogging, light swimming and similar activities which maintain the required heart rate.
Anaerobic exercise is a higher-intensity, higher pulse rate resistance type of exercising. Anaerobic gets activated at a higher pulse rate, around 145 beats per minute or greater. It can even get activated with a slow pulse rate if the intensity is high enough. Some anaerobic examples of intense exercise include running, jogging, fast treadmill, soccer, hockey, basketball, wrestling and weight training. It also includes activities such as bike riding and swimming, if the activity is intense enough to reach the point where the necessary higher heart rate is achieved.
You will use aerobic and/or anaerobic exercise depending on what body type you are. The four body types are Adrenal, Thyroid, Liver, and Ovary.
Aerobic exercises are the most effective fat burning exercises for the Adrenal body type as the adrenal glands have already been overworked. High intensity exercise will make things worse for the adrenals. Over-stimulating the adrenals glands can trigger the stress hormone cortisol, and cortisol can make you fat. With Adrenal body types, intense exercise blocks the rejuvenation and repair of the body. An Adrenal type person can even gain weight with exercise.
A combination of both aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise is appropriate for the Ovary body types which works best on their lower body and cellulite fat. Anaerobic exercises are the most effective fat burning exercises for both the Liver body types and Thyroid body types. Both aerobic and anaerobic exercise can be an effective fat burning exercise for athletes and young people with a high metabolism regardless of their specific body type.
In beginning a weight loss program, it is very important to understand the different types of fat burning exercise so that you're able to choose the one appropriate for you. This will enable you to choose the most effective fat burning exercise for your particular body type. Too many attempt their weight loss workout program improperly. They wonder why after weeks of hard work, they don't see any results.
In summary, for adrenal body types the most effective fat burning exercises are aerobic exercises, for the liver and thyroid body types the most effective fat burning exercises are anaerobic exercises, while the ovary body types will have success with both aerobic and anaerobic exercises.
