Running For Weight Loss Mistake

You want to "lose my love handles" and you were wondering if running for weight loss is any good or a waste of your time. Well, the answer is, yes, running is good for weight loss IF you don't make a COMMON MISTAKE. Read the rest of this article to find out how to run to maximize weight loss while avoiding that 1 big mistake.

Lose My Love Handles With Running?

First things first, most people make a huge mistake when it comes to running which pretty much makes it a big waste of time for them. If you run at a "STEADY STATE", meaning... you run at the same speed the whole time, then you're wasting a lot of your time running.

It's not an efficient way to lose weight doing it that way. When you run like that, you burn calories while running, but once you stop... YOU'RE DONE burning calories at a faster rate.

Considering all the time devoted to running, this is not an efficient use of time.

Here's what you need to do instead to lose your love handles and burn off tons of calories and fat. You use HIIT. This stands for high intensity interval training.

So what you do is run at different speeds... and you can even walk.

You need to run at a very fast speed with high intensity. This doesn't work unless you do that. Then you follow up that interval with a slower interval. Either slow jogging or walking.

Keep repeating this sequence. Fast running followed by slow jogging/walking.

For the fast running, you only need to run hard for 10 seconds. Then you can walk or jog for 30 seconds. I recommend you do this non-stop for 6 minutes.

After 6 minutes it up, stop and drink some water for 2 minutes.

For best results, repeat this 3 more times. So you do about 24 minutes of exercising total. That's it. BYE-BYE love handles due to the "AFTERBURN" effect of rapid calorie-burning for up to 18 hours after the HIIT running session.

Free Diet Plans That Actually Work!

Are you still looking for some free method for losing weight that actually do what they say they can? If so, I'm about to go over 2 very simple, but highly effective free diet plans that work! Each of these methods may seem very simple, but don't let the simplicity trick you into thinking, that when properly implemented, these methods won't work.
What I'm about to go over isn't set in stone. You can adjust these plans according to fit best into your overall weight loss program.

Free Diet Plan #1
Protein Shakes
This plan is something that can take off a dramatic amount of weight in a very short period of time...but...
This plan is something not everyone can actually stick to and follow through on. However, if you are looking to lose as much as 15-20 pounds in a month, this can get the job done.
The plan consists of drinking nothing but protein shakes. And when I say nothing but protein shakes, that's pretty much exactly what I mean. Women are typically advised four shakes per day. And men are advised to drink five shakes per day.
Drinking only shakes can be tough, so in order keep feeling full, you are going to need to add some fiber in the form of flax meal to your shakes.
You also will need to add some carbohydrates. And the way I advise using them is as snacks between meals. So in between your 4 or 5 shakes per day, a couple of good choices are apples and bananas. Or you can always add them to your shakes and skips the snacks between meals. It's your choice.

Free Diet Plan #2
Eggs and Black Beans
This plans is unbelievably cheap and simple. It just involves adding eggs or ½ can of black beans to every one of your meals. It doesn't matter which you choose - as long as you choose one.

3 Dumbbell Exercises For Abs - Do These and Get Strong Abs

While dumbbells are not often used to work the abs, there are at least 3 dumbbell exercises for abs that come to my mind. If you do these (and eat right, of course) you will strengthen and tone your abs and waistline.

Exercise #1 - Weighted hanging leg raises

The hanging leg raise is a difficult exercise in its own right but placing a dumbbell between your crossed feet will make it that much harder. If you're using a Captain's chair to do hanging leg raises, place the handle of the dumbbell between your feet and raise yourself to the chair. If you're using a pull up bar, place the dumbbell on the floor standing on one of the plates and then lift it up with your feet.

Then, do the exercise normally. Make sure to use a weight that actually allows you to do some reps.

Exercise #2 - Weighted crunch

The weighted crunch can be done in a few variations: place the dumbbell behind your head or hold it against your chest and then just do a regular crunch by raising your upper body toward your bent knees.

I recommend placing the dumbbell on your chest because holding it behind your head may cause you to strain your neck. I also find that holding the dumbbell on your chest is a more natural form so you should find it easier to do.

You need to make sure that the dumbbell is tight against your chest. Don't let it roll down to your belly.


Exercise #3 - Incline leg lifts

To do this dumbbell abs exercise will require an incline workout bench. To do the incline leg lift you need to hold the dumbbell between your feet and grab the top of the incline bench with outstretched arms so your feet dangle over the edge and are in midair.

With your abs, lift both legs together with the dumbbell up. Make sure not to lift your lower back from the bench. Hold it down with your abs. Keep the movement slow and gradual with no abrupt movements. This exercise, similarly to the hanging leg raise one is excellent if you're trying to target the lower abs in particular.

A few general tips

Most of these exercises are hard enough without dumbbells. Only use weights if you're in shape. Don't be hasty and look for instant results. You won't get them. Make sure to not neglect your diet for the best results possible.
