Can You Lose Weight Working Out In A Week -
A Simple Body Weight Workout To Slim Down Fast

by Ryan M Hall Fat Loss Expert and Author of The 20/20/20 Diet

People email me this question, or some variation of this question, several times a week, and the short answer is….Yes. But, I’m guessing that you didn’t come here for a short answer. Most likely, you’re reading this because you’re looking for a way that you can lose weight working out in a week. Here is a very simple plan that you can follow that will help tone your muscles, burn your fat and get you slimming down almost immediately. Realize as you start this, the best way to lose weight is diet and exercise, so if you really want to slim down, you’ll need to make a few dietary changes too.

These are all bodyweight exercises that you can start doing right now. This way, there is no excuse not to do the workout. You won’t have to get dumbbells to get started, or join a gym. If you have the equipment or a gym membership, that’s even better, but I’ve listed bodyweight exercises so that you can just DO IT.

Don’t make any excuses.

There are 5 exercises you will be doing during each workout. Your goal is to do 100 of each exercise. Yes, I realize this is a lot, but if you want to lose lbs in a week, you have to sweat. If you can’t do 100 in a row, do it in sets. If all you can do is 20 in a row, do 5 sets of 20, or 10 sets of 10, or 20 sets of 5 reps. I’m sure you get the idea. The goal is 100 of each. If you absolutely can’t do any more, move on to the next exercise, write down where you stopped with the previous and try again at the end of the workout when those muscles have recovered a little.

Here are the 5 exercises, remember 100 each, no excuses, no slacking.

1. Jumping Jacks
2. Pushups (this one was the hardest for me when I first started)
3. Crunches or full body crunches
4. Squats or Lunges
5. Mountain Climbers

(For Mountain Climbers, put your hands on a bench or on the floor as if you were doing pushups, then with one knee tucked to your chest, extend your other leg behind you, then quickly switch your legs at the same time. Be sure to keep your hips low as you switch your legs. If you can’t switch both legs at the same time, do them separately until you are able to.)

A few tips while doing your workout.

• Be sure to sip on water between sets as your mouth will get dry.
• Drink plenty of water after each workout.
• Eat a carbohydrate rich meal after the workout. If you can, it’s best to do this before breakfast so you can start your day out right and then eat a healthy breakfast afterward.

If you follow this simple body weight workout plan you will no longer wonder, “Can you lose weight working out in a week.” Coupled with a healthy diet plan, this fat burning workout will get rid of any unwanted weight very quickly.
