How Often Should You Exercise to Lose Weight?
Do you want to know how often you need to exercise to lose weight? Well, we can give you some general tips on how often you need to exercise per week and what the best exercises are. An individual and goal-oriented exercise plan through the Infinity Fit fitness app and with healthy recipes and nutrition programs will help you achieve visible and lasting results.
What is the Optimal Number of Trainings per Week?
The right number of workouts per week varies from person to person and largely depends on many factors related to your body and your workout. For example, beginners will, of course, train less often than experienced exercisers and may use a training plan for beginners or exercise at home or in nature, while more experienced may apply a training plan for more advanced exercisers, muscle mass programs or more complicated fitness exercises with props in the gym. Another factor relates to the type of training you do.
Exercise that mainly consists of cardiovascular training to improve endurance such as walking, running, rowing indoors must be viewed differently from strength training with your own body weight or weights to build muscle. All of these factors are important and must be considered before making training suggestions. The most difficult thing for a personal trainer is to come up with the best customized training plan for each of the clients, so we have adapted our fitness app to everyone, to get the desired results in the fastest way.
How to lose weight effectively
If you want to lose weight, you must include the following principles in your training and diet plan: Get out of your comfort zone and don’t give your body a chance to get used to the routine. Mix the intensity, duration and intensity of the exercise by changing the weight, number of sets and repetitions. Different exercise frequencies and work intervals in cardio training. For greater efficiency in cardiovascular training, include training with your own weight. Infinity Fit will find many variations for your needs and goals. Include a special strength training with weights or a muscle training program, or simply add some of the training at home or in nature to your weekly training plan. To simplify: the more muscle you have in relation to your total body weight, the more calories you burn per workout.
Training, sleep and a healthy diet are the basis for achieving ideal weight in a stable and lasting way. You need to consider and adjust every aspect. One very important rule that everyone should follow regardless of the level of training is “Never skip a rest day!” Be sure to take a break from all fitness activities at least once a week. When we work with clients through our fitness app, our tips and suggestions on how often to exercise largely depend on the individual factors and aspects discussed above. Generally, three to five workouts a week (or in other words, three to five hours of physical exercise) usually give visible and good results. Beginners will benefit the most if they work three to four times a week.
The main thing is to have a rest day between different workouts. You should have at least one rest day after two consecutive strength trainings. As you can see, a healthy balance of strength and cardio training is the most effective way to not only lose weight, but to achieve and maintain a high level of fitness and good looks. You can find these and many other useful tips regarding workouts in the gym, workouts at home or in nature, special workouts for women, as well as healthy eating plans, on our fitness app. Infinity Fit works for you.
