losing the last 5kg

kayla220220

okay so far I have lost around 7kg just from controling my calorie intake and walking to uni , so no real exercise.
now I have 5kg more to loose and am thinking of starting running twice a day, just to see if this will aid my weight loss.
do you think it will help ?.

I would start a little easier than that - I have been working up to running by doing walking/running intervals for 45 minutes once a day and it has taken about 3 weeks to get to the stage where I can almost run the whole way. I guess it depends how fit you are already....

Running twice a day seems like overkill, and it seems likely you'll end up hurting yourself (knees, achilles tendon, shin splints,etc). I'd recommend only running 3-4 times a week. In my opinion, it's better to make sustainable changes than to look for a quick-fix. You could also supplement this with a workout DVD or other sports (biking, swimming).

Good Luck.

Do HIIT training. High Intensity Interval Training. I like to sprint as fast as I can for 30 seconds, then slow down to a moderate jog for 45 seconds to a minute. Repeat the cycle for 25-30 mins, maintain eating at a caloric deficit and you're on your way to building lean muscle, toning your glutes, hamstrings, quads and calves, and burning lots of calories. Enjoy and goodluck.

i should probably quickly add
my current weight is 57kg
and each run would be once around my block
so twice a day would be two laps

If your block is the size of my block it would only take you about 5 mins to run around it. Try to get in at least 20 mins worth. Work your way up to 30 mins of the sprinting and jogging method I mentioned. It's MUCH more effective than a steady paced job. I love the Insanity workout dvds. No weights needed except for in 1 video. The rest are all body weight exercises that will burn calories like crazy. RIPPED is also great.
