Fast exercise for weight loss at home using equipment

Usually clients of mine are most interested in two things... the first is weight loss, the second is tightening the muscles after weight loss.   So what is the best way to tighten and tone your body after weight loss, and are there exercises that you can do that accomplish both these goals at the same time?

YES absolutely there are more efficient ways of toning and tightening muscles while losing extra weight you'd rather you didn't have.   While you may feel that merely keeping a cardio program  (walking, running, treadmill type of activity) you will be able to perhaps lose the weight you wish to, but you are missing the essential component of resistance training that helps to develop the lean and strong shapely muscles that look and feel great.   

HOW CAN I GET THE RESISTANCE EXERCISE?

There are onbly so many ways to really strengthen and tone all the bodies muscles, and they all have to deal with some type of weight resistance or pushing/pulling and pressing a weight to create resistance, or what is preferred by trainers and most athletes these days, using your own bodyweight as resistance and leverage it against a bar or bands, or as is the case with TRX and their suspension training techniques, pivoting against a leverage point to only use your own bodyweight to do full body exercising.  

Is there any doubt that weight loss and muscle toning can be accomplished by bodyweight based exercise?  We need only to look at the ultra fit refinement and development of gymnasts and athletes that train with this methodology, and the offer some of the most fit, strong and lean body development  of anyone.  

It's odd that the best exercises are often overlooked in the arena of bodyweight training.  Pull ups of all sorts, provide exceptional exercise and strength results, which inevitably yield amazing upper body development and lean muscle, but few people can do even one pull up with their own bodyweight and that is why there are some awesome options available these days with products such as the speedfit gyms offered by SoloStrength Lifestyle Products.   These products offer a beautifully designed home and studio gym equipment, with a frame and base mat with a easy to adjust bar that you can set in different vertical heights, to play with for full body exercises that can be done by all strength and fitness levels.  A very user friendly home gym system that is fast and simple to use, and can start you off as a beginner with weight you want to lose, and build your strength while very efficiently losing weight, and toning your muscles at the same time.  You can progress the challenges of your programs so that you can continue to do more difficult exercises as you improve and keep your body strength improving and keeping your body toned and lean after losing the desired weight.

We are going to be doing some videos on our experience with the solostrength home and studio gym systems soon, and I'll be offering them to my clients as well.  I think it's an awesome home gym system solution and would be what I recommend to anyone looking to both lose weight and tone their muscles at the same time from home.
