Lose Weight Faster With These Calorie-Burning Floor Exercises, Trainer Says Eat This Not That – Eat This, Not That
When embarking on a weight loss journey, leading a healthy lifestyle is key. This means following a diet that's chock-full of veggies and lean protein, getting in your cardio, and performing strength training exercises. Consistency is the name of the game here, as it will help you drop that unwanted weight and achieve your weight loss goals. But if you want to lose weight faster, you can get active on your non-training days by doing some floor exercises and walking. These lower impact activities will help you burn more calories and aid in the recovery process after more difficult workouts.
When performing floor exercises, you should opt for compound movements that involve multiple muscle groups and recruit more muscle fibers. With this well-rounded game plan on deck, you'll be well on your way to sculpting your dream body in no time.
If you're looking to incorporate floor exercises into your routine to lose weight faster, we have you covered with the best calorie-burning movements. Perform 3 to 4 sets of the following exercises, and next, be sure to check out The 6 Best Exercises for Strong and Toned Arms in 2022, Trainer Says.

Flex your triceps and chest at the top to finish before performing another rep. Complete 3 to 4 sets of 10 to 15 reps.6254a4d1642c605c54bf1cab17d50f1e
