LA Fitness:LA Fitness Club: 1. Combining Resistance and Cardio for Maximum Weight Loss Results
A combination of cardiovascular exercise (e.g treadmill, crosstrainer etc) and resistance exercise (e.g swissball, weights machine, free weights) will achieve significantly better weight loss results then doing only cardiovascular exercise. For example, 3 cardio workouts, 1 swissball workout and 1 light handweight workout per week will achieve significantly better weight loss results then doing 5 cardio sessions per week. The naked trainer DVD 1 with its 30 minute swiss ball session and 30 minute hand weights session is a great way to add some resistance training to your weekly regime.
2. Goal Setting and Planning is ESSENTIAL
There is no point embarking on anything if you do not have a goal in mind, and if you fail to plan then you plan to fail. Sign up to www.thenakedtrainer.net (FREE), set your health goals, create a weekly exercise plan and guarantee success.
3. An Easy Program Adhered to Will Always Beat a Hard Program That’s Never Followed
When creating your exercise plan it must be achievable and enjoyable. Someone who plans to do three moderate intensity, 30min exercycle sessions per week, and sticks at it, will get far better weight loss results then someone who plans to do seven, 1hr, high intensity rower sessions, but only actually averages one a week because they rarely have an hour to spare and they don’t enjoy the work outs.
4. The Myth About Exercise Intensity For Weight Loss
Short, high intensity workouts (20-30 minutes) achieves as much, if not better weight loss results then the traditional longer, low intensity workouts (45min – 1hr). High intensity means HIGH INTENSITY though. The sweat should be pouring off you by the end of the 20-30 minutes.
5. Creating Exercise Variety to Achieve Better Results
Combining high intensity cardio exercise with resistance exercises is a great way to get maximum weight loss benefit from your workout and keep things interesting. For example, 5 minutes on a treadmill, 10 press ups, 10 sit ups, 10 lunges, 4 times through.
6. What is a Healthy Weight Loss
You should aim to lose no more then 1/2kg per week. Any more then this and there is a very high chance that you will simply put it all back on plus more.
7. Best Time of Day to Exercise to Lose Weight
Exercising in the morning burns more calories then exercising at night, however the difference is so small that if you are someone that prefers exercising at night then you are better off sticking with your preferred evening training.
8. The Most Effective Food Tip
The best thing you can do to improve your diet is to keep a food diary and nominate a friend or family member to show it to every week. This simple process will force you to think a lot more about what you put in your mouth. Small monthly changes to your diet achieve far better long term benefits then drastic crash diets.
9. The Little Things Really Do Count
Do not under estimate the benefit of adding small activities to your every day life. All those things like, ‘take the stairs’ and ‘get off the bus a block early’ make a huge difference if done regularly.

10. Keeping up Some Exercise with a Lower Limb Injury
If you have a minor lower limb injury (knee, hip, ankle) then the best cardio machine is a treadmill as it is very low impact due to the cushioning, but because it is still a weight bearing exercise it will help to strengthen and improve the injury. A crosstrainer is not a good exercise option if you have a lower limb injury due to the slight twisting movement associated with the exercise.
