This is how you get that
ultra-tight body
A toned body, abs, beautiful arms that are not too muscular; we all want it and preferably as soon as possible. as soon as possible. But which sport should you do to achieve that desired result? I’ll list them for you. Which workout suits you and what you want to achieve?
1. Running
When you start running, you primarily work on your endurance. You burn quite a few calories during your run. The downside is that the burning stops the moment you sit on the couch. But you do get beautiful legs from it...
2. Swimming
Swimming is also a good way to improve your endurance. The large movements you make in the water engage your whole body, but the focus is on your upper body. If you swim every day, and I mean a solid breaststroke or 100 laps, then there’s a good chance you’ll see this especially in your upper body. So if you don’t want to get too muscular in your arms, shoulders, and back, then training in the water 1 to 2 times a week is the max.
3. HIIT
My ultimate favorite is HIIT training. Through this class, you train your endurance and tone your body. Your muscles show themselves in a subtle way, and the best part is that you continue to burn calories even after the workout.
4. Fitness
The biggest myth is that women become muscular and manly from strength training. If you want a beautifully subtly toned body, just make sure you become friends with the dumbbell rack. Our bodies contain too little testosterone to become as muscular as the male gender. So don’t be afraid, girlfriend. The road to a toned body starts in the gym.
5. Pilates
By incorporating an hour of Pilates into your schedule 2 to 3 times a week, you develop long and strong muscles and train your core stability. Your posture also improves because many exercises focus on the back. And yes, those Angels on the catwalk don’t have a ridiculously tight stomach for nothing.
6. Kickboxing
Boxing is actually a form of HIIT training. The boxing is alternated with exercises focused on conditioning, core, and strength. Think of exercises like burpees, jumpsquats, planking, push-ups, and sit-ups. These are often combined with punches or kicks on a punching bag. Through the short intervals, you work not only on your core (which you continuously tighten) but especially on your endurance.
7. Spinning
Spinning makes you tighter and improves your condition. If you stay below 75% of your maximum heart rate, you’ll also lose weight. So if you want to shed some pounds but still maintain your body shape? Then hop on that saddle.
8. Walking
Last but not least; if you really don’t like exercising but still want to lose some pounds? This workout can be done by anyone and you can do it anywhere. A simple block around the neighborhood (and no, I’m not talking about a ten-minute walk) gives you super beautiful legs and you burn more calories than you think. Hide your car keys and leave your bike. From now on, we do everything (okay, almost everything) just by walking.
My ultimate workout? A combination of HIIT, running, and strength training. This way, you train your endurance, tone your body, and burn the necessary calories.
