Remembering childhood math: The equation between water inflow and outflow applies to everything in life; from the finances to fat burn. No exercise is good enough if the calories entering the body are greater in quantity than that getting burnt. So, you need to check first if you are putting in more calories a minute than you can spend. With that much info under the belt, let’s dedicate the first two minutes to the Jump Rope for a start. And no, though it may appear so, this is not a jump start.
That way, the body shall tire too fast and irregular breathing patterns play a big part here; if the breathing pattern is not appropriate, it shall take its tolls on the belly fat burning procedures, making them lose their maximum efficiencies. The ideal is two jumps for every turn of the rope. Care must be taken that the landing is always on the area just after the toes and the thud muffled as much as possible. Don’t worry if the count is low; it’ll go up every passing day. Just take care that you inhale while landing and exhale while jumping.
The next step calls forth some serious squat-thrusts that transform into push-ups. The feet should stay apart (shoulder-width is appropriate); the arms perpendicular to the ground and hanging next to the sides. Squat down with the head upright and moved forward; the hands now touch the floor, touching the outer sides of the feet and pointing forward. Change to a pushup position from this by pushing the legs back in one single movement. One strict pushup follows and then back to the squat position with a jump. Stand up. The whole workout must be completed in one minute flat for maximum effectiveness.
The next two minutes shall go back again to the Jump Rope; this time, it should be one jump per turn. What must immediately follow are the squat thrust and the push up, but added with the side plank after the first two are over. Lift and rotate the left arm overhead while the left foot shall rest on top of the right foot and rotate along with a similar neck movement that’ll make you look up at the ceiling. Run the process backwards and put the other side to work. Upon completion, it’s back to the squat position again and then, the Jump Rope again, for the next two minutes at one jump a turn and then two jumps a turn.
This can also be followed up with Leg Lifts and Mountain Climbers; those not being able to go out for jogging shall be benefited with the latter. However, these are advanced workout methods and require the body to develop the required endurance to withstand the tighter workout routines to come later. Till then, have patience and perfect the moves, for it is only the consistent that shall win the war against the burdens and restrictions our own faulty body mechanisms put on us.
