If you exercise at home for weight loss, you probably want the most bang for your buck. After all, why waste the time and effort on workouts that don't burn much fat. Here are some of the best at home weight loss exercises. Try these if your goal is weight loss in record time.
If you want to burn the most calories with your cardio workouts, try some of these top calorie burning cardio workouts:
1. Jumping Rope (400 calories/30 minutes)
Jumping Rope is a fun way to blast fat fast. Not only will you burn tons of calories, you'll greatly improve your cardiovascular endurance. Jumping rope is a difficult thing to do for 30 minutes. Beginners should jump for 5 minutes at a time, and rest for a few minutes in between, increasing the time spent jumping without rest as is tolerable.
2. Interval Training: Running Intervals (calorie burn varies)
Interval training is one of the most effective calorie burners you can try. The exact number of calories you'll burn with jogging intervals greatly varies depending on the number of jogging intervals and the total length of time you spend jogging. It also depends on the speed of your jogging. The great thing about jogging intervals is that you can start slow, and work your way up, burning more and more fat as you increase your workout intensity.
3. Swimming Laps (350 calories/30 minutes)
Swimming laps is a great way to beat stress and burn fat. If you have access to a pool, swimming laps is one of the best at home weight loss exercises out there, especially in the summer.
4. Roller Skating (400 calories/30 minutes)
Roller skating burns a ton of calories, and it's more fun than work! You'll feel just like a kid again with this workout. All you need is a pair of skates. It doesn't really matter if you choose classic roller skates or inline skates, both burn the same amount of calories.
5. Elliptical Trainer (250 calories/30 minutes)
If you are considering the purchase of a piece of at home exercise equipment, the elliptical trainer is a good option, and is one of the best at home weight loss exercises too. The elliptical trainer burns a lot of calories, tones the entire body, and is low impact. It's my pick for at home fitness equipment.
