In our busy schedule, we hardly get time to incorporate exercise every day. But now this problem can be solved. One American study claimed that if you indulged in exercising daily just for 2.5 minutes, your body can burn upto 200 calories throughout the day. These are some exercises that you can choose from and kick start your routine at home.

Jumping Jacks

This is a full body workout which involves all your large muscle groups. They function as cardiovascular, strengthening and stress relieving exercises. Therefore, make jumping jacks part of daily or weekly fitness plan and if required you can also modify them to achieve your fitness goals.

Burpees

When it comes to weight loss, the best exercises are the movements that can be done and which can work on various muscles at one go. One of my favourite is burpees: which is tough but way too effective to be rid of fat loss. Having said that this exercise increases the stamina and boosting our metabolism.

Squat Thrusts

Trainers love them but people hate them. The reason could be that it sounds tough but this exercise is too challenging to do. The exercise targets the muscles of your lower body, from your butt to all the way to your calves. Since the engaging muscles are legs, the largest group of muscles in the body, hence they help a lot when the focus is on weight loss.

Mountain Climbers

Another lower body strength building exercise, this exercise involves constant switching of the legs, which get the heart pumping and thereby promoting weight loss.

Walking Lunges

This exercise helps tone your butt and legs. It not only helps in weight loss but also in improving balance. It also works on your joints and helps strengthening them.

Lateral Jumps

This exercise works more significantly on your glutes and thighs. The focus area also includes the inner and outer thigh muscles which can be particularly hard to tone.
