6 Home Workouts That Burn Fat Fast

Even this baby likes to work out at home!

Are you ready to shed a few pounds? Tired of not having access to a gym? Well, good news jack, I have something that will work for you! I myself lost 28lbs doing these workouts and getting on a healthy diet. If you want your belly fat to get BURNT up, start working. I have 6 Workouts here that will destroy those love handles and get you on your way to getting healthy again. Now, here is my disclaimer. Workout will not get you ripped. Dieting will. You cannot eat garbage while working out and assume you will be fit and look great. You need a balanced diet as well. That being said, here are GREAT workouts you can do in under 30 mins at your house that will burn fat quickly. I am writing this because a few days ago I wrote about my experience losing about 30lbs this year (you can read about it HERE). After posting it I chatted with several people who mentioned how difficult it is to work out when they don't have equipment and are too broke to join a gym (I have been there!). I realized it might be helpful to give you some of the workouts that Tricia and I enjoy doing when we cannot make it to the gym! So, I'm just going to feed you baby birds the workouts so you can take them and use them for yourself! Here is how this works:

First, you need to figure out what you CAN do at your house. Here are 10 exercises that almost anyone can do at home:

1. Push Ups
2. Sit Ups
3. Burpees (Video of a guy doing 100 of them)
4. Air Squats (Video of a guy teaching you how to do them)
5. Tuck Jumps (Video of a guy teaching you how to do them)
6. Box Jumps (Video of a guy teaching you how to do them)
7. Jumping Jacks
8. Sprinting outside
9. Pull Ups (you may or may not have access to this one)
10. Jump Rope Double Unders (Video of a guy teaching you how to do them)

Now don't get all caught up on these 10 exercises. You are limited only by your equipment and you imagination! Do you have a park near your house? Do pull ups on the monkey bars! Have a heavy brick? Hold it over your head when you do your squats! Just be creative and it will all work out will.

Now that you know what exercises you can do now lets figure out how to put them together! Here are 6 workouts you can do very easily at home.


Workout 1:
Pick an exercise from your list and do the following sets: 21 -15 - 9. In between each of those, run as quickly as you can down the block and back. So if your exercise was Push Ups, you would do 21 and then run, then 15 and then run, then 9 and then run. Do the entire thing as fast as you can. Time yourself so you can do it again and try to beat your own time next time!

Workout 2:
Pick 2-4 exercises from you list. Then do 50-40-30-20-10  So if you picked Sit Ups and Jumping Jacks, you would do 50 situps and 50 jumping jacks, then 40 situps and 40 jumping jacks...and so on. Time yourself for the whole thing and try to beat your time next time!

Workout 3:
Pick 2 or 3 exercises from your list. Then do 10, 9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,and then 1 of  the exercises you chose. So if you picked Push Ups, Sit Ups, and Air Squats, you would do 10 push ups,10 situps, 10 squats. Then you would do 9 push ups, 9 situps, 9 squats...and so on. Do all of this with a running timer and do it as fast as you can so you can try and do it faster next time!

Workout 4:
Pick 4 exercises. Do 100 of each of them. Do them in any order you want and as broken up as you want, just get all of the reps done. Do all of this with a running timer and do it as fast as you can so you can try and do it faster next time!

Workout 5:
Pick 3 exercises and try an AMRAP workout (As Many Rounds As Possible). So lets say you picked Pushups, situps and air squats. Do 5 Pushups, 10 Situps, and 15 Squats. Then, when you are done with those, start over. Finish as many of those rounds as you can in 20 mins. Go for the highest number of completed rounds as possible.

Workout 6:
Pick 4 exercises and try a Tabata workout!  It works like this: You do and exercises for 20 seconds and then rest for 10 second. After you do this 8 times, move on to your second exercise (But DO NOT take a break yet!)So say the first 8 intervals are pull-ups, the second 8 are push-ups, the third 8 intervals are sit-ups, and finally, the last 8 intervals are squats. You only rest 10 seconds between each exercise. When your pullups are done, you have 10 seconds to start Push Ups, and when those are done, you move to the next and so on.  So you workout for 20 seconds and then rest for 10 and you keep doing that until you have finished 8 sets for each of the workouts. Your score will be your total number of reps. You can try and beat your score next time you do it!
