How To Lose 10 Pounds Fast With 10 Minutes of Exercise

You want to lose 10 pounds fast this season, but the problem is that you don't have much time to spare for consistent exercise. Well, you are in the same boat as a lot of other people, but the good news is that you can still achieve your weight loss goals, if you can simply spare two ten minute sessions a day for exercise. Now that has to be manageable. If global political leaders, film stars and CEOs can do it, I'm sure so can you! with a little extra weight loss efforts.

The Magic of Short Spells of Exercise

If you want to lose 10 pounds fast, can commit to regulating your diet with a diet plan and are consistent with a total of 20 minutes of exercise a day, there is no reason why you cannot lose 10 pounds fast, even in as little as 2-3 months! A lot of people think that exercise has to be in one continuous session to provide any weight loss benefits, and it also has to be done for an hour or more to have a real benefit. Both these beliefs are wrong! Whether you do your exercise session in one spell, two or three, you will burn the same number of calories.

The easiest way for you to begin losing weight would be to pick up two exercises that you have the space and equipment for and you think you can handle, and do a ten minute session of each during the day. Here are some ideas, and an average number of calories you could burn doing these.

Jumping Rope

All you need is a jump rope and a little bit of empty space, and even a moderate session of jumping rope could bu
100-110 calories over 10 minutes. You will be hard pressed to find a more efficient weight reduction exercise.

Climbing Stairs

Ten minutes on the stairs will help you burn in the range of 70-80 calories, and you don't even have to rush up. Besides, stair climbing engages your leg muscles and will help tone them. And toned muscles means a better metabolism, which translates to further weight loss!

Stationary Bike and Treadmill

If you've got a stationary bike, put it right in front of your television. If you can discard your sofa and pedal away for ten minutes while your favorite soap plays, you will have burned 60-70 calories. Hit the treadmill for the same amount of time, and you may just hit the 100 calorie mark.

Walking and Active Lifestyle

Brisk walking will help you burn in the range of 50 calories over 10 minutes, and if you dance for as much time, you could burn over 70 calories. If nothing else is working, simply incorporating exercise into your daily routine, by taking the stairs instead of the elevator and parking your car further away and walking, will help you bu
50-60 extra calories. If you are a parent, get out and active with your kids and that will also work as great weight loss exercise.

Bear in mind, the calorie values mentioned above are only approximates. Exactly how much you are able to burn depends on your height, weight, age and level of fitness.

At the end of the day, if you do your 20 minutes and at the same time, work towards eliminating junk food and replacing it with wholesome foods in your diet plan, you will be able to lose 10 pounds fast, before summer is through! Imagine how much better you will feel about yourself, when you are able to achieve your weight loss goals without putting yourself through any unnecessary torture.
