Exercises for love handles #2 – Major muscle strength training
Training your major muscle is as important as doing HIIT training when comes to losing your love handles. This is because major muscles itself requires more energy and calories thus working on those major muscles increases our resting metabolism rate (RMR) faster than working on minor muscles.

A higher RMR will therefore burn more fats even when we are resting. So in order to get rid of love handles, you need exercises that target major muscles. Major muscles include Upper Legs, Upper Back, Chest and Shoulders.

Here are some of the best exercises to work on major muscles.

1) Standing Dumbbell Lunges
This exercise works a lot on your lower limbs muscles.

Step 1 – Hold two dumbbell with your hand straighten. A preferably weight for woman and man would be 5kg and 10kg respectively. Stand up straight and look forward. This would be the starting position.

Step 2 – Lunge forward with your right leg until your thighs are about parallel to the floor. Take note that your upper body should remain straight up and your knee should not pass beyond your toes. If your knees are beyond your toes, try to take a longer stride forward.

Step 3 – Step back using your right leg to the starting position. Then lunge forward with your left leg until your thighs are about parallel to the floor. Then step back to the starting position. This will be a complete repetition.

Step 4 – Repeat for 12 repetitions per set. Do a minimum of 3 sets for this workout.
