Zhiyu Pu | Personal Training Workout Tips

 Zhiyu Pu | Are you looking to start a workout regimen and don’t know where to begin? Because I had lifted weights and run cross country when I was younger I thought I knew what I was doing a few years back when I decided to lose 40 pounds. However, I have recently learned some things that have changed the way I am working out. Let me share them with you.

Did you know that doing 10 50 to 100 meter dashes will actually increase your metabolism? It’s true. While spending hours on the treadmill will burn more calories while you are working out, doing short sprints will allow you to burn more calories in your sleep. Consequently I have a lot more time to devote to other things.

Did you know that the more muscle you carry the more fat you will burn? Yes, and the best way to build this muscle is by focusing on weight lifting exercises that work multiple muscle groups rather than only one. Like a lot of people, I used to focus on single muscle groups like biceps, triceps, pectorals etc. but, after learning what I have, I’ve started doing things like the dead lift and the clean and jerk. These exercises work a multitude of muscle groups and will leave you exhausted in a short time.

Zhiyu Pu | Here’s a little secret about weight lifting exercises that I recently learned. Exercises like the bicep curl don’t do much for you in terms of burning calories because you are only using one muscle group and the range of motion is not that great. The clean and jerk on the other hand requires you to lift a weight off the ground and over your head which is a significantly greater distance and uses more muscle groups. This has the same effect as running sprints because it increases your metabolism and you will be burning more calories for days on end.

Zhiyu Pu | Top 10 Tips About Weight Loss

  1: SPOT REDUCTION WORKS | ZHIYU PU It is widely believed that if you focus your exercise and weight training on specific areas of your body that you will be able to reduce the amount of fat in that specific area or region. In reality, there is no such thing as spot reduction, and instead, as you begin to work out and exercise you will start to lose weight evenly throughout your entire body. Just the same, another common myth is that a high number of repetitions will burn more fat when in truth, fewer repetitions with heavier weight will actually cause you to burn more fat in a shorter amount of time than a higher number of reps with a lighter weight.

Zhiyu Pu | Active Recovery for Exercise

Zhiyu Pu | Active recovery is the engagement of low-intensity exercise after completing a challenging and difficult high intensity athletic event. An example is going for a low-intensity bike ride after completely a full 26 mile marathon. This might seem like the opposite thing to do since the body needs rest but this is actually not the case. (Zhiyu Pu) When our bodies continue to move after an event like a marathon; we can reduce the risk of cramping and we can help the blood to circulate properly for recovery.
