Exercise for Weight Loss

Exercise aimed at reducing body weight requires long-duration activity at a fairly low intensity.

The most common challenge with this type of exercise is motivation, as prolonged activity can be mentally exhausting. However, with dynamic and varied routines, it’s easier to achieve a satisfying pace.


Frequency of Exercise

4-6 times a week


Duration of Exercise

40-70 minutes


Intensity

low to moderate



IMPORTANT: Before the first and after the last set, we recommend 5 to 10 minutes of light rowing and warm-up beforehand — and stretching after the workout!

In the tables below, we offer some sample suitable exercises.
