Workout And Diet Plan For Building A Firm Body

To build a firm body I highly recommend a strength training program. Strength training not only builds your muscles but also works on joints and tendons. Your muscles are what helps in burning fat when you are not working out. Did you know 1 pound of muscles will burn 50 calories per day? Just imagine if you just replace 10 pounds of fat with 10 pounds of muscle. You'll be burning 500 calories without even lifting a finger.

But for you to reach that level you have to start strength training program.

Strength training program for weight loss

Before you start out with any kind of program, don't forget proper warm up and stretching for your muscles. Also don't forget to include joint exercises like neck circles, wrist circles, shoulder circles etc. This'll help you with your joints problems in long run.

For a good strength training program.

You need compound exercises like squats or lifts. Do not include isolated movement exercises like curls. In strength training you should be lifting heavy weights for low reps. For example you can lift 3 reps for 6 sets. Bodybuilders use high number of reps which are not meant for strength training.

You can also use bodyweight exercises like Bodyweight squats and push ups or may be handstands or pull ups. I prefer to do 4-5 full body workouts per week. You can use this settings if your body can handle it.

For cardio, You should include HIIT(High intensity Interval training). I prefer doing Sprints. They work the lungs and all your anaerobic system. You can run 100 m for 10 reps as sprints. They are tough.

Diet program to go with strength training

One of the best diet you can follow if your goal is weight is low carb diet. Now when I am talking about low carbs, that doesn't mean you have to cut your carbs like in atkins diet. No, our goal is to cut our carbs enough so that we can burn our fat without shutting down our metabolism.

In this diet, you'll cut your carbs, improve your proteins and fat to create fat burning effect in your body. Coupled with strength training exercises you'll lose fat in no time.
