An exercise tip to help you increase your calorie burning potential of every workout is
to really start to choose multi-jointed compound movements.
Just to explain what that is, a uni joint or exercise would be something like a bicep
curl where only one joint is moving per given motion. A multi-jointed movement, an
example would be a squat where you could see the knees, hips, shoulders are all
involved into the movement.
Another example for upper body would be a push-up. And basic movement as you
can see, you’re involving the elbow joint, the shoulder joint. And again, what you’re
actually doing here is you’re recruiting much more muscle. So the more muscle you
recruit, the more calories you’re going to burn in the workout. So this will help you
get to your weight loss goal much quicker.
