Use Power Exercises To Burn More Fat, Part 1
Submitted by My Fitness Hut Blog
Don’t overlook power exercises when you are strength training! Power is the ability to exert maximum muscle force in the shortest amount of time (rate-of-force production). Because power exercises are so intense and done full speed, they are great for burning body fat. Among other benefits, power exercises recruit more muscle fibers (mainly fast-twitch fibers) more frequently which helps the fat-burning process. Recruiting your fast-twitch muscle fibers during your workouts will give you a more lean, toned looking body.
A good power exercise is squat jumps (with or without dumbbells). Before doing an exercise like this at full speed, you need to learn correct jumping and landing techniques! If you don’t master these mechanics, injuries are coming your way sooner rather than later!
Another not-so-obvious benefit of power exercises: you will never get bored doing them! They happen so fast that you don’t have a chance to get bored!
