In this episode of Boot Camp FX television you're going to see some great exercises to build your arms, shoulders, chest, back and abs.

Exercise Description and Sample Workout Below:

The first exercise sequence you'll see is the front lever pull up super set.

Extend your legs and hips straight up and out as high as possible and pull yourself up toward the bar.

Repeat until you reach momentary muscle failure. Immediately begin pull ups with a knee lift after the front lever pulls. Go to momentary muscle failure.

The next exercise in this super set is the static "L" pull up. Pull yourself up as high as possible while keeping your body in the "L" shape.

The final exercise in the front lever super set is the static pull up with knee lift. Stay as high as possible in the up position and pull your knees up and toward your chest. Repeat to momentary muscle failure.

This will be an advanced circuit for many people. Do your best and strive to improve in some way, everyday.

The next exercise is the static pike.

Lift yourself off the ground or floor by pressing your shoulders toward the ground and keeping your head and chest high. Hold to momentary muscle failure.

The final exercise is the Hindu push up (and 1/2).

Begin by elevating your legs and performing a Hindu push up with your hips high and "swoop" your chest down toward the ground.

People want to get in shape fast.

There are no shortcuts to fitness, but high intensity fitness programs will give your body a rapid transformation. That's where boot camp fitness comes in.

Have you watched "The Biggest Loser" before? The trainers are merciless to the participants in an effort to turn their bodies into fat burning machines. Some people actually like that.

Boot camp fitness is a popular way to exercise. The coach won't yell at you unless you've paid for that type of class. In a gyms, health clubs and other types of programs, many people are turning to more aggressive measures looking for better and speedy fitness results.

Your body can handle a lot. The larger muscle groups of the legs, back, and abs will be challenged through a variety of exercises with and without weights. That is exactly what boot campers thrive on.

Basically the class combines some military PT training with squats, lunges, pushups, crunches, and cardio intervals. You could be running in place or jogging a half mile one minute and doing weight work the next. Those who are looking for a higher intensity workout thrive in  such classes.

Who is a good candidate for boot camp training? All fitness levels can participate, but check with your doctor first. On "The Biggest Loser" the contestants are constantly supervised by a physician. Before beginning any exercise program, especially one as intense as boot camp, it is a good idea to get a clean bill of health.

A good boot camp program will teach something about supportive nutrition so that all of the work done in camp is not in vain. Eating nutritionally supportive meals goes hand in hand with burning fat and reshaping your body.

We've seen the results on shows like "The Biggest Loser." Participants who were hundreds of pounds overweight have lost that weight with kick butt trainers. What about the rest of us? Does boot camp fitness really work?

Burning fat requires commitment, consistency and a burning desire to reshape the body. Boot camp programs deliver quick results, high intensity and a fast total body transformation.

Bootcamp can work for you, too!

How to Lose Weight Quickly

Many people want to lose weight quickly and safely. However evidence shows that in order to keep the weight off permanently you should strive to lose, at most, about 1-2 pounds of fat per week.

The most common mistake that people make in their attempts to lose weight is to approach weight loss as a one time thing and not a lifestyle change.

Effective weight loss programs all do the same basic thing. They manipulate calorie intake so that calories in is less than the total number of calories expended. Most people don't know that one pound of fat equals 3,500 calories.

So to lose 1-2 pounds per week you would need to consume 500-1000 fewer calories than you currently take in - assuming that your weight has stabilized.

The other option is to increase your activity level so that calorie expenditure is increased by 500-1000 calories per day. Either one of these approaches would result in a 1-2 pound body weight reduction every single week.

Unfortunately, these are both simplistic approaches to weight loss that don't take into account other factors like bioindividuality, horomone production, and more.

But for someone who is looking to drop body weight fast, without regard to long term weight loss, this is all that you need to know.

For people who are concerned with long term and permanent weight loss it is essential to approach body transformation as a lifestyle change.

The people who are successful with weight loss make physical activity and permanent and essential part of their daily routine. They don't think of exercise as a chore. They think of it as their escape from the daily grind. It is their refuge from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

If you are looking to lose weight, consider making physical activity and healthy eating a part of your life. You will live longer, be happier, have more confidence, and more. The list of benefits that you will experience is too numerous to list here.

It goes on and on.

So if you want to have a better outlook on life, more energy, and more - don't even think about losing weight quickly.

Think about making a permanent lifestyle change and losing weight FOREVER.
