Exercise Tips

1. Cut your workout time (quantity) down, and increase the intensity (quality) by using heavier weights and doing full body exercises. Doing movements that hit multiple muscles -- like a squat with a shoulder press, or a lunge with a biceps curl -- will zap more calories than movements that isolate individual body parts. During a short workout, this is the fastest way to bump up your heart rate and keep your body in a fat-burning zone.
 
2. Shorten your rest periods so you create a cardio-effect. You'll maximize your calorie burn if you do more work and keep your downtime to a minimum.
