Get Maximum Benefits From Your Workouts With Multi-Joint Exercises

Building more lean muscle mass will speed up your metabolism and burn more fat. To recruit more muscle fibers during workouts and improve your success, focus more on MULTI-JOINT EXERCISES during your workouts. MULTI-JOINT EXERCISES will help you burn more fat because you are working more muscles in your body. For example, the largest muscle in the body is the gluteus maximus and squats/lunges would target this area. You will also burn more calories after your workout (up to 3 hours). Examples of other MULTI-JOINT EXERCISES are bench press, shoulder press, deadlift and seated row. Examples of SINGLE-JOINT EXERCISES are biceps curl, seated calf raise, leg extension, leg curl and triceps pushdowns.

    Hey Mark: sorry but I don’t know very many women that bench press! Don’t know what a deadlift is, but I have been lifting weights doing my HIP HOP ABS workout and so far so good!

    You should do bench press, chest press, dumbbell press on ball—-they are all good and similar. They will burn fat and tone your chest, shoulders and arms. Deadlift is one of the foundation lifts. Give it a try. All of my women clients do full body weight workouts….

    LOVE the deadlift and most of those multi-joint ex’s. NOW, I would not have known either what those exercises are, but once you start seeing muslces, you want to see more. And you are dead on with those big muscles ex’s. Little time and lots of results. Spread the word ladies… muscles mean you can have food and enjoy it too !!!
