First, lets take a look at weight training. When you train with weights, for example at Boot Camp you use free weights, by using them they help to target specific muscle groups.  It uses the force of gravity in the form of the weight, to oppose the force generated by the muscle through contraction.  This sort of training helps to burn muscle fat.  Many women overlook training with weights but there are so many advantages by using them, you gain not only strength but you build muscle and strengthen the bones while burning calories.  It’s a successful way to exercise.

Cardiovascular fitness is essentially the efficiency of the heart, lungs, and vascular system in bringing oxygen to the muscle tissues so that extended physical activity can be maintained. When engaged in cardio activity you are burning the stored fat in your body which helps create a caloric deficit.  Cardio is good for your heart, burns fat, and revs up your metabolism.  By incorporating these two elements together they will keep you fit and healthy.

As you can see by combining these types of workouts into the same session you will reap the benefits of maximum weight loss potential in the shortest amount of time.  Using your own bodyweight is also one of the best ways to boost your metabolism and burn fat.  Basically your metabolic rate is a measure of how fast you burn through the calories that you consume.  When you rev it up, it can even burn calories while you’re resting.  Another result to training with weights that every women wants to experience is a toned body.  When your metabolism is higher, you expend more fat calories while the body is at rest.  You will be able to see the toned look in your body when you blast the fat after your determination and hard work.
