In order not to get confused among the variety of fitness areas, you need to clearly know your goals: lose weight, make your body more prominent, or increase strength and endurance.

In order not to get confused among the variety of fitness areas, you need to clearly know your goals: lose weight, make your body more prominent, or increase strength and endurance.

For those who want to lose weight and burn fat effectively, we talk about the principle of operation of different fitness workouts and how many calories you can burn in one session.

Jumping rope for weight loss

When cutting or losing weight, our main task is to create a calorie deficit. This is achieved in two ways: a competent diet and intense physical activity. Moreover, cardio exercise is especially important for this. It is quite easily perceived by the body; it is almost impossible to overtrain while doing it. Recovery from training is quick - one day will be enough if we are not talking about performing several dozen complexes with jumping rope or running marathon distances. During this exercise, a huge amount of calories is spent, creating an even stronger energy deficit.

How many calories are burned in an hour of training with a jump rope?

For example, using jumping rope as a means of losing weight, for every 100 jumps you will burn from 45 to 80 calories. This range of indicators depends, first of all, on the athlete’s own weight. The higher the weight, the more energy is required for one jump. It turns out that in one hour of training with a jump rope you can spend from 700 to 1200 calories - this aspect depends more on your endurance, technique of performing the exercise and ability to work correctly with the apparatus. Let's take 900 calories as an average, which everyone, even a not very trained athlete, can handle.

Now let's do a little comparative analysis:

Type of cardio load:Calorie consumption per 1 hour workout:
Jumping rope900
Run600
Walking on a treadmill200
Walking uphill420
Aerobics classes360

Statistics are a stubborn thing, you can’t argue with them. Jumping rope is the most energy-intensive form of cardio exercise and burns more than 900 calories per hour. Of course, performing them for an hour, and at a fairly intense pace, is not a task for beginners; this requires experience and skills.

For more experienced athletes, there are other methods of jumping rope that allow you to increase the pace of your workout even more and work out the full program in the gym. These are double and triple jumps, taking turns on one leg, with alternating left and right legs, with crossing the rope in a jump, with a turn around its axis, etc. You can come up with infinitely many variations, it all depends only on your imagination and level of physical fitness.

Features of training for weight loss

Training aimed at losing weight has its own characteristics. In this case, the main task is to burn the most calories. This can be achieved by combining jumping rope with other exercises - air squats, lunges with dumbbells, push-ups, pull-ups or CrossFit elements.

By performing such workouts, you place a complex load on several large muscle groups at once, which leads to an even greater energy deficit. In addition, it saves a lot of time. In one hour of such high-intensity work, you will be able to complete such a gigantic amount of work that you would hardly be able to do in two hours of weight training in the gym. Such training can be done at home or outdoors, saving time on travel to the gym.

You can also alternate jumping rope with other types of cardio exercise. For example, we jump for 5 minutes, then do another exercise on a cardio machine for 5 minutes: a treadmill, elliptical, exercise bike or stepper. In just an hour of training you will get 6 such circles. Try to diversify the load as much as possible, so the training will be psychologically easier, and you will get more pleasure from the process itself.

How many calories do household chores burn?

Household chores sometimes become no less energy-intensive than various types of fitness, so it would be a good idea to take them into account when calculating your daily energy expenditure.

An hour of shopping spends from 200 to 450 kcal. In the process you have to move a lot, squat, bend, and turn. By the end of the event, your feet may become very tired, so for this type of activity you should choose comfortable shoes, not high-heeled shoes.

250 kcal are spent. With intense movements and active cleaning with your hands, a large number of calories are burned, but the effectiveness of the fat burning process largely depends on what additional devices are used. For example, washing floors by hand will be more energy-consuming than using a vacuum cleaner.

An average of 160 kcal is spent. The main load goes to the hands. During the process, your legs may become numb, so it is recommended to periodically change position, shifting the center of gravity.

Consumption - 150 kcal. Low energy costs due to manual operation only. Caution is required due to the high temperature of the instrument.

Consumption - 160 kcal. Constantly moving around the kitchen and many small movements help burn off extra calories and train concentration and focus.

The effectiveness of weight loss largely depends on how many calories you burn during the day, so it is very important to stay active and exercise regularly.

As practice shows, the amount of energy required for physical exercise depends on many factors. What matters here is a person’s gender, weight, age, physical activity, and lifestyle. After all, you can lose 500 kcal during a workout, but due to poor nutrition, you will gain back twice as much. In this case, noticeable weight loss will not be observed. To speed up the metabolic process, when the most fat is lost, you need to know exactly what exercises to do and what sports to play.

    I read, it doesn’t matter, it turns out something like this. I decided to count this way for now. According to the sensations and the way my body works, I get exhausted after 20-25 minutes of CrossFit, about the same as I get exhausted from running at a speed of 13-15 km/h during the same time. “According to the readings,” at this running speed, the consumption is approximately 1000 calories per hour. Therefore, I estimate that I spend somewhere around 370-450 calories for CrossFit, + for 40 minutes of running, including intervals at high speed, also about 500 calories. Total roughly about 900 calories. I just started practicing this method, I’ll see how the result will be in the coming weeks (unless I die, of course)

    Unfortunately, yes, everything is approximately. The weight of an apple can be accurately measured, but how many calories it contains, it must be burned in a special installation, but then it will not be possible to eat it. The same goes for expenses. To avoid this, you need to wear a special mask and a gas analyzer, which will take into account the amount of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the exhaled air during exercise. But we don’t have this in constant use either. Because everything is approximately. Your approach is correct. See where the weight goes over 2-4 weeks, preferably 4, and then adjust if necessary.

    Nikonel, try using for example runtastic.com and its mobile applications IOS, Android. Or Endomondo.com The first application (Rantastic) has the CrossFit activity (it’s in Russian). Set the time, get the calories. In the second (Endomondo) in English, there is circuit training - circular training. also, you give time, you get calories. This is very approximate - I also do intense CrossFit (heart rate does not drop below 120, it reaches 160), with 10 minutes of surya namaskara yoga and light aerobics with stretching as a warm-up, 20 minutes of HIIT CrossFit, 10 minutes of static stretching at the end. All this burns about 700 kcal per hour for me. Rantastic and Endomondo show 40% less - so everything is relative. Here I trust the heart rate monitor. In general, when working with a heart rate monitor, there is one simple rule: when the heart rate is in the fat burning zone and above during any activity (for people 30-35 years old this is 130 and above) - then you need to trust the heart rate monitor. This includes any intense training - running, cycling, aerobics - at a decent pace, CrossFit, and intense circuit strength training. If the pulse is less than 120 UVM - strength training, gymnastics, yoga, stretching, etc. - you need to believe in special programs (I have listed two). MFP... it’s hard to believe in activity. Or adjust for yourself each time, sometimes the adjustment is 2 times...

Important rules for effective fat burning

Training is training, but we must not forget about the other two basic principles of effective body building. Of course, this is nutrition and recovery (rest).

Healthy eating

Of course, the topic of healthy eating when doing CrossFit for girls who want to lose weight is a separate and very voluminous topic. Let's go over it in detail:

  • The most important thing is the daily caloric deficit. Calculate your daily requirement using special formulas. Next, subtract 15-20% from it and you will get calories for weight loss. It is no longer possible to create a deficit; the efficiency will be lower.
  • Reduce your calorie intake gradually from your normal diet. There is no need for sudden changes in either training or nutrition. For example, if you consumed 2500 kcal, and now you need to switch to 1500, do this in 2-3 stages (weekly), and do not immediately cut off your diet by 1000 calories.
  • Set up the right diet - small portions, but many times a day. Ideally 5 times a day. But no less than three! Eating after 18 is not only possible, but also necessary.
  • Keep track of what foods you eat at what time of day. Carbohydrates should predominate in the first half of the day, proteins in the second. This requirement is not mandatory, but it is advisable to comply. The fact is that with a daily calorie deficit, you will lose weight in any case, even if you eat carbohydrates at night. But in this case, you simply will have little energy for work/study and, most importantly, for training. This is why it is better to eat complex carbohydrates in the morning and before training a couple of hours. If in the morning nothing gets into you, it’s okay. This is only a recommendation, not an ironclad rule.
  • Food quality. The diet should be balanced and include everything you need - animal proteins (1.5-2 g per kg of weight), complex carbohydrates (1-2 g per kg of weight), unsaturated fats (0.8-1 g per kg of weight), fiber , vitamins, etc. Do not forget to drink clean water - approximately 33-35 ml per kg of weight per day.

Recovery

Let's get back to sports

In addition to effective training and proper nutrition, it is very important to allow your body to recover. Feel your body - no need to push yourself like a racehorse with all your strength

Maintain a harmonious balance between training and rest:

  • For trained athletes, we recommend training 3-4 times a week.
  • For beginners, 2-3 times will be enough. You can start with two classes and train like this for at least the first month, and then switch to a regime of 3 training sessions per week - every other day.

Sleep is very important - at least 8 hours a day.

Extra calories

CrossFit differs from other types of fitness in that it combines various loads and exercises from different sports. This combination also affects calorie burning. Moreover, they are spent both during and after the lesson.

According to some data, long-term aerobic exercise “burns” muscles along with fat. This can slow down metabolism and prevent the exerciser from losing weight, because the more muscles, the more energy a person has to spend during any activity. So, with a large amount of muscle mass, you turn your body into a well-functioning mechanism for burning energy.

But aerobic exercise is also needed. A long powerlifting workout without an aerobic portion burns significantly fewer calories than a shorter workout with a 20-minute run. Therefore, for greater effectiveness, you need a good combination of loads, which CrossFit provides, provided that your exercises are complete and contain strength loads.

There is another reason to include strength exercises in your workouts: the so-called afterburn. This phenomenon means that in the first 24 hours after training, calories continue to be burned. The main thing is to resist the urge to slow down your normal rhythm of life after an intense workout. Even when you're tired or have muscle pain, don't stop being active.

How to do burpees correctly?

Well, here we come to the most important thing. How to do the burpee exercise correctly? Let's understand the technique of performing it step by step, after studying which even a beginner can cope with the exercise.

Let's go through the burpee technique step by step.

Step 1

Starting position: standing. Then we sit down on the cards, rest our hands in front of us on the floor - hands shoulder-width apart (strictly!).

Next, we throw our legs back and take a position lying on our hands.

We do push-ups so that our chest and thighs touch the floor.

Step 5

And we also quickly move to position number 5. With one small jump of the legs, we return to the starting position. In fact, 4-5 steps are one movement.

Step 6

And the finishing touch is a vertical jump and an overhead clap.

(Attention: be sure to take a completely vertical position and clap exactly above your head.) In no case should you slouch - your back should be straight

That's all. The burpee exercise technique is quite simple, wouldn’t you agree? However, without a coach you can’t always see and predict all the mistakes on your own. Therefore, we have prepared for you a good overview of the burpee technique on video:

How to lose weight quickly?

Just like in training for muscle gain, in training for weight loss, more than 80% of the result is achieved primarily through diet and proper nutrition. The role of strength training, fitness and all kinds of aerobic exercises in burning fat is often overestimated. In order to lose weight quickly, you need to change your diet.

Despite the fact that physical exercise forces the body to burn calories, the contribution of these energy costs rarely exceeds 10-15% of the daily intake. The role of fitness in losing weight is primarily to change metabolism rather than directly burn fat.

How many calories does sports burn?

Below are the five most popular types of workouts for weight loss. The number of kilocalories (referred to as “calories” for simplicity) burned during each of the activities listed is based on a 70-kilogram person(1).

Exercise bike

  • Burns 150 calories in 30 minutes
  • Difficulty level: easy

Workouts in the gym

  • Burns 200 calories in 30 minutes
  • Difficulty: medium

Freestyle swimming

  • Burns 250 calories in 30 minutes
  • Difficulty: medium

Running at a moderate pace

  • Burns 300 calories in 30 minutes
  • Difficulty: medium

Interval training HIIT

  • Burns 300-350 calories in 30 minutes
  • Difficulty level: high

How many calories are actually burned?

The method for calculating calories burned during exercise is based on an analysis of inhaled and exhaled air and heart rate. An additional 15-30% of energy is spent by the body during recovery(2), but these calories cannot be taken into account in calculations.

People training to lose weight tend to overestimate the amount of energy expended. It's hard to believe, but thirty minutes of swimming is actually comparable to a small McDonald's hamburger - burning calories is much more difficult than eating them.

Exercises for weight loss

FitSeven wrote about how exercise to lose weight is the biggest fitness myth. Performed in a calm rhythm, abdominal crunches or leg raises tone the muscles, but do not affect the burning of fat on the stomach, thighs and other problem areas.

Training programs for weight loss always contain references to the fact that effectiveness is achieved exclusively in combination with a competent approach to diet. It is impossible to get rid of excess weight through exercise without first normalizing your diet.

The effect of training on metabolism

The good news is that physical activity does affect weight loss - however, not through direct fat burning, but through improving the functioning of the cardiovascular system and normalizing metabolism (primarily carbohydrates).

Carbohydrate derivatives, glycogen and glucose, are the main source of energy during any workout. Regular physical activity teaches the body to convert carbohydrates from food into energy for training, rather than storing them as fat reserves.

The Role of Cardio in Fat Burning

The effectiveness of carbohydrate use is determined not by the type of physical activity or training program for weight loss, but by the heart rate with which such training is performed. The pulse should not be too weak and not too high.

Obese people should pay increased attention to heart rate control. Accelerating an untrained heart to 150-170 beats per minute can be fraught with serious negative health consequences, including fainting or even a heart attack

Fat Burning: Recommendations

If you want to get rid of excess weight, you must first reconsider your diet, and only then move on to weight loss training. The choice of physical activity should not be based on the number of calories burned, but on simplicity and ease of access.

The next point in choosing workouts for weight loss is monitoring your heart rate. To burn fat without harm to health, it is recommended to train 2-3 times a week for 20-40 minutes at 115-135 beats per minute (60-70% of maximum heart rate).

***

Weight loss workouts begin with monitoring your heart rate using a heart rate monitor. The immediate type of load (running, swimming or circuit training) plays a secondary role. At the same time, the diet gives more than 80% of the results in burning fat.

Calorie consumption during training

Each type of workout takes its own amount of calories. It is important to know how many calories are burned in one workout. It is worth paying attention to the following types of exercises:

  • yoga. How many calories does yoga burn? The indicators are very individual and relative, but on average it takes up to 250-400 kcal. The type of yoga a person practices also matters. You shouldn't do these exercises just for the sake of losing weight. Yoga is needed to keep the body in good shape;
  • Abdominal pumping takes away 4-8 kilocalories per kilogram of weight. It turns out that in 15 minutes you can lose 140 kcal if you weigh 70 kilograms;
  • Tabata. You need to exercise for 20 seconds, then rest for 10 seconds. In total, an intense workout should not be longer than 5 minutes. During this time, up to 55 kcal is burned. Moreover, metabolism improves 15 times, burning fat even at rest and sleep;

  • strength training, when lifting weights, helps burn from 200 to 400 kcal per hour;
  • Hula Hup. If you spin a hula hoop for 10 minutes, you can lose 50 kcal. But a beginner will not be able to exercise for more than 15 minutes, since his back gets tired from unaccustomed use, and his legs also swell;
  • Burpees. Or squat, bench press, arm press, jump. This exercise burns up to 1200 kcal per hour of exercise. At an intensity of seven times per minute;
  • roller skating. With a weight of 55 kilograms, 110 kcal will be consumed in 10 minutes, and 660 in an hour;
  • ellipse. You need to exercise on the ellipsoid for an hour, since fat burning begins only after half an hour of work. Depending on the speed, it takes from 300 to 700 kcal;
  • riding a scooter. When riding a scooter, calorie consumption is 55 kcal in 10 minutes with a weight of 55 kilograms, 330 in an hour;
  • exercise bike. You can burn from 500 to 700 kcal in an hour. This has to do with how intensely a person will train;
  • aerobics. In 50 minutes, with a weight of 65 kilograms, 282 kcal will be consumed;
  • water aerobics. It takes approximately 680-700 kilocalories per hour;

The numbers depend on weight, metabolic rate and age. Therefore, it is difficult to give universal data on how many calories to burn during a workout.

Leisure

While on vacation, you can get not only pleasure, but also benefits for the body, getting rid of calories. Try to take daily evening walks, walking for at least half an hour at a slow pace. This will help you burn about 300 calories, and if you speed up your pace or walk uphill, the number will increase to 400. When you decide to watch TV, instead of lying on the sofa, pick up a jump rope. Jumping rope is a very simple and effective method of combating excess calories and kilograms. If you jump for an hour while your favorite TV show is on, you will not only enjoy watching it, but also save 700 calories. By combining these two activities, you will not even notice that you are tired, but after several weeks of such combinations, you will see a positive result. If jumping for so long at once is problematic for you, perform jumps in several approaches, taking short breaks between them. When going outdoors with friends or family, do not forget about active games in the fresh air. Bring a ball, badminton rackets or Frisbee. While the kebab is preparing, you can make room for it, making food less harmful to your figure, and also get rid of the calories received by continuing active rest after the meal.

Interesting ways to avoid dieting

Remember a few rules that will help you trick your body and make it lose weight a few days after you start training.

  1. Turn your walk into a workout using your own calories by bending your elbows 90 degrees and pumping up your arms as you walk. Not only does this automatically speed up your pace, but it also helps you burn up to 15% more energy.
  2. Favorite music. You can fight calories with your favorite songs: developing your favorite playlist will help you stay on the move 20% longer and burn more calories. Music blocks fatigue, induces a feeling of alertness and helps you keep up by synchronizing your movements.
  3. Weights. To really target the fat layers, you need to slightly increase the load. A small weighting agent will help you in this matter. Those who used heavy dumbbells burned 25% more calories.
  4. Cold water in hand! To avoid feeling too tired to the point of exhaustion, control your body temperature using a simple method - hold a bottle of cool water in your hands. This will help you last longer on long walks.
  5. Alternate the pace - do not let your body get used to monotony. Watch your heartbeat. You must constantly enrich your cells with oxygen, and when shortness of breath appears, go for a calm walk. After resting, speed up. This is an alternative to strength training and cardio exercises with variable intensity.

Never try to replace walking or outdoor exercise with treadmills and exercise machines in gyms. Do you know how many calories are spent jumping rope in the yard? Almost one and a half times more than indoors. Oxygen and proper breathing also play a big role in this matter. If this is not possible, open the windows or ventilate and cool the room where your class will take place in advance. Heat and stuffiness are not the best companions in the fight for health and physical activity, and the heart does not need such a load.

Features of the exercise

Of course, to achieve optimal results, jumping rope technique is paramount. At first glance, there are no special technical subtleties here:

  • we land on our toes;
  • keep your back straight and press your elbows close to your body;
  • twist the hands synchronously with the jump rope;
  • we work at the same speed;
  • We try to maintain the same breathing rate.

But everything is simple only during the first 50-100 repetitions. After this, a real nightmare begins for an unprepared athlete. Your legs give way, sweat fills your eyes, your calf muscles become clogged, and it becomes simply impossible to jump normally. The athlete begins to constantly hit his shins with a jump rope, the pace is completely off. This is why the technique needs to be constantly practiced. Then you won’t have such problems, and CrossFit classes will be much more productive, and jumping rope will be easier with each workout.

Fat Burning: Recommendations

So, the first step in the fight against excess weight begins with reviewing and adjusting your usual diet. And only after that they select a training program, but without unnecessary hype around the number of calories burned

Here, an important place is given to the feasibility and simplicity of the proposed exercises.

A half-hour workout every other day at a heart rate of 115 to 135 beats per minute is considered optimal. At first, a heart rate monitor allows you to monitor your heartbeat.

Having learned to keep the rhythm and not increase the intensity of the load during any type of cardio training (running, swimming, circuit training, etc.), do not forget about the secondary importance of these exercises in the fight against fat deposits. The main assistant in this difficult field remains diet and the application of the principles of rational nutrition.

It all depends on the constitution of the body

What is the calorie consumption during fast walking, moderate or hard running? The truth is, it depends on how long and fast you run, and how much of an extra calorie you think you're burning. Surprised? You're not the only one who has worked on developing the perfect balance between what you eat and what you lose during exercise. Many studies show that women overestimate the number of calories they use daily, sometimes by almost 1000 times! Don't forget about the calorie calculator for weight loss - it helps balance the calculations to the optimal value.

The benefit of knowing how your body uses calories for fuel is that it can help you "fat up" and change your shape. Basics:

  1. What you don't use goes straight into reserves (stomach, thighs, buttocks).
  2. For every 3,500 calories you burn above your normal weekly intake, you'll lose about a pound. This is approximately the same amount of calories burned when squatting for 2 continuous hours.
  3. When you sit and read, you burn about one calorie per minute.

This number increases every time you stand, walk, or run to your phone because your body requires more energy to get the job done. If the calorie consumption when swimming in the pool is 500 kcal per session, do not forget to also take into account fees, transportation, changing clothes, etc.

How to understand that you are ready for exotic types of planks?

This trial and error method, beloved by all amateur athletes, can end in injury if you start without preparation.

You can start adding weight when standing in a classic plank for 2 minutes seems like a trifle to you.

You don't have to immediately grab the dumbbells. There are about 50 varieties of this exercise of varying degrees of severity:

  • side bar
  • with limb extension
  • in a jump
  • with push-ups
  • with alternate placing of hands on elbows and so on.

Having achieved perfection in one thing, we move on to the next. You can do several types of planks on the same day, but it is advisable not to reduce the number of approaches for each of them for a deeper workout of the involved core muscles.

However, even with abundant imagination, training based on the plank alone cannot be considered complete.

How many calories are burned during exercise?

Calories are the energy the body receives through nutrition. Excess calories are converted into fat mass, which makes the figure fat and shapeless. You can get rid of fat accumulations with the help of various physical activities, which can not only remove extra pounds, but make your figure slim and fit. Let’s look at what burns calories best without causing harm to the body, step by step.

  • Running or walking on a treadmill or stepper can remove about 300 - 400 calories in an hour of exercise. The exlator simulator, which simulates walking up stairs, has also proven itself well. But this type of exercise uses only the lower muscles of the body, while the upper ones remain indifferent, which means they are not trained.
  • Cycling helps burn approximately 300-500 cal/hour, everything will depend on the intensity of pedaling. But for very overweight and unprepared people, this load may seem excessive and unbearable. In addition, this sport has a number of contraindications.
  • Aerobics can remove up to 500 calories from the body in an hour. The rhythmic pace of classes helps you lose weight and transform your overall figure. But diseases of the back, joints, and diseases of the cardiovascular system are quite powerful arguments against this type of weight loss. In this case, water aerobics is recommended.
  • Water aerobics is the same as aerobics, but in a pool. In an hour of exercise you can burn more than 600 calories, which is equivalent to fast skiing. The advantages of this type of exercise include the ease of performing exercises, which is ensured by a decrease in body weight in the water. With regular exercise, fat reserves are dynamically burned, the skin tightens and becomes elastic. It has practically no contraindications and is recommended even for pregnant women. The calorie consumption table proves the high effectiveness of water aerobics in the pool.
  • Swimming is an ideal sport for losing weight. Since water creates greater resistance, weight loss occurs with greater intensity. So, in an hour of simply floundering in the water you can lose up to 300 calories, and practicing breaststroke or butterfly can save you from 700 calories. In addition, swimming increases endurance, tightens the skin and creates an anti-cellulite massage.

If your goal is to lose weight, then a table of calorie consumption during physical activity will help you clearly understand which sport you should give preference to. When choosing, you should take into account the individual characteristics of the body, contraindications and training loads. It is advisable to record your calorie consumption daily, which will allow you to create the ideal combination of physical activity and calorie foods. If the ratio is correct, then the extra pounds will begin to melt before your eyes.

How calories are burned with a quiet lifestyle

In a state of calm

In a state of calm, the body still spends a certain amount of calories. Therefore, even without doing anything, you need to eat, otherwise the body may become exhausted. There is a formula that helps you understand how many calories each person needs at rest. Here you will need to know your body weight in kilograms, height in centimeters, age in years. Let our woman weigh 65 kilograms, have a height of 168 centimeters and her age reach 38 years. Then you get the following figure:

This is exactly how many kilocalories per day, as the calculator shows, you need to eat so that the body can burn all the energy received. If the question is about losing weight, then you need to consume less high-calorie foods or engage in physical exercise.

Training programs

We have prepared two basic monthly programs for you. One based on classes without a gym, the second in one.

Let us remind you that all CrossFit training complexes are built according to the following scheme:

  1. Warm up for 5-10 minutes (do not neglect it to avoid injury).
  2. Basic program for 15-60 minutes.
  3. Slow cool down with stretching for 5-10 minutes.

An excellent set of CrossFit exercises for weight loss for girls is presented in the following videos:” alt=””>

Visual Text

A modern gym is a variety and abundance of equipment for sports, an ideal place for those who want to increase muscle tone and become the happy owner of a toned, beautiful figure.

Training in the gym is designed for people of any level of training and is absolutely safe.

The gym is divided into several zones:• Strength zone• Cardio zone• Circuit training• Elliptical exercise bikes

Before the first lesson in the gym, an “Introductory training” is held. It is conducted by the instructor on duty at the gym in order to get acquainted with the structure of classes, the location and purpose of exercise equipment, show the basic exercises and talk about the rules of conduct and safety in the gym.

Classic plank

We will immediately disappoint those who are actively losing weight - the plank is not an effective type of fat-burning fitness activity.

And that's why:

It does not burn as many calories as you would like - on average 5 per minute.

Moreover, when calculating, it was the minute, and not the hour, that was deliberately used. You are unlikely to stand in the plank for an hour - this is impractical from the point of view of sports results, and it is impossible from the point of view of human physiology.

We calculate the periods of rest between approaches using a different energy expenditure scale.

To understand what 5 calories per minute is, you can compare the bar with other exercises and types of load:

  • during strength training we lose 7-9 cal,
  • when riding a bicycle quickly or intensely jumping rope - up to 10 cal.

The conclusions are obvious - you won’t lose much weight with just one bar.

What should those fans of this exercise do who cannot afford classical training in the gym?

Burning calories during sports games

Many people enjoy playing different types of sports, so when calculating your daily calorie intake, it is important to take into account how many calories such games burn.

  • Tennis.

On average, 400 kcal are spent. It is considered an energetic and challenging workout, as periods of rest are followed by explosive, intense work. Moving sideways places increased stress on the knees and ankles, which wears out the joints.

  • Squash.

From 400 to 800 kcal are spent. The limited space and small size of the ball force you to move at particularly high speeds, making many small, energetic movements. High intensity can be too tiring for an athlete, so it is recommended to master the sport under the guidance of an experienced instructor.

  • Swimming.

Consumption ranges from 350 to 400 kcal. Calories are consumed mainly by maintaining the correct body temperature. The classes have no contraindications and are recommended during the rehabilitation period after injuries.

  • Volleyball.

350 kcal are spent. Particular stress falls on the hands, as a result of which the joints of the wrists and elbows are destroyed.

  • Martial arts.

350-450 kcal are spent. Training involves a lot of energy consumption due to constant movement, impacts and deflections of the body. They are considered very traumatic activities, which must be mastered under the guidance of a trainer.

  • Football basketball.

They resemble an interval training style that alternates active movements and sudden stops. These areas of fitness develop coordination of movements and increase agility. At the same time, there is a high risk of injury due to the active movement of other people.

  • Bowling.

About 200-250 kcal are spent per game. In the process, the muscles of the abs, legs and back work. The danger of exercising is the risk of various types of sprains. Therefore, it is very important to choose the right weight of sports equipment.

It can be noted that most sports help to expend a sufficient amount of energy, so from time to time they can successfully replace your usual fitness training.
