These exercises burn 6 times more calories than jogging

People who jog every morning are usually in good shape and look attractive. It’s also a well known fact that jogging as well as just fast walking can burn a lot of calories. Jogging is an effective method of staying fit that we are used to. However, what if there is something even more effective?

We suggest you to run backwards. Jogging backwards makes more muscle groups workout and loads quadriceps, one of the biggest muscles in your legs. 100 backwards steps burn the same amount of calories as 1000 ordinary jogging steps. Thus, it is 10 times more effective! That’s incredible, isn’t it?

What is more backward running is way less dangerous in terms of injuries. Since your velocity will be low and the your knees won’t be as overloaded. So, we encourage you try backwards jogging out and stay looking gorgeous in that bikini or swim suit.

And also we suggest doing these exercises several times a week to burn calories. Scroll down and look.

– Move your feet forward about 18 inches in front of the bar. Position your legs using a shoulder width stance with the toes slightly pointed out. Look forward at all times and maintain a neutral or slightly arched spine. This will be your starting position.

– Slowly lower the bar by bending the knees as you maintain a straight posture with the head up. Continue down until the angle between the upper and lower leg breaks 90 degrees.

– Begin to raise the bar as you exhale by pushing the floor with the heels of your feet, extending the knees and returning to the starting position.

– Beginners can bend both knees and keep the feet flat on the floor. The non-moving leg will be kept bent throughout the move.

– Draw your right leg in toward your chest, and then extend it up toward the ceiling. Bring your right thigh as perpendicular to the floor as you can. Point your toes and turn your leg slightly outward from the hip. Do not let your right hip lift off the mat. It’s okay if your right knee stays slightly bent to keep your hip on the mat.

– Engage both inner thighs as you sweep your right leg across your body toward the left, aiming your leg toward your left shoulder.

– Circle your leg down toward the mat, then out to the right, and finally back to center. Inhale for the first half of the leg circle and exhale for the second half.

– Repeat 5-8 times, and then reverse directions for another 5-8 times. Repeat with the opposite leg. End in the same position in which you started, then roll up to a sitting position.
