"Weight loss" goes beyond the scale. The most important is to lose body fat while maintaining or increasing muscle mass.

But, according to Eduardo Arnaut, the Edge Life Sports owner and competitive performance athlete, "the training routine should prioritize energy expenditure, and nothing better than aerobic interval workouts and moderate to high."

In this case, strength training should provide a high caloric expenditure, with a good intensity, but with low volume of exercises per muscle group, thus preventing the focus is hypertrophy.

According to the physical education teacher Camila Cyril Chiacchio, the ideal is that this routine is supplemented by a moderate aerobic work about 30 minutes at the end of bodybuilding training.

The ideal weekly schedule, according to the expert, for this is to switch days of weight training + aerobics with exclusive days of aerobic training, maintaining a minimum of 2 routines in bodybuilding. Ex.: Monday, Wednesday and Friday - aerobic training 1 hour; Tuesdays and Thursdays - strength training + aerobic 30 minutes.

Example of a Training For Weight loss: (The intervals between sets should be 1 minute performing an aerobic activity like jumping rope, up and down the step or mini trampoline)
