We'll be the first to admit that finding time to exercise isn't easy. Plus, you often need equipment, which requires you to buy the weights/machines or visit the gym, neither of which helps boost motivation levels. Fear not, as this 20-minute workout can help pack on muscle without weights or exercise machines; all you need is a little bit of floor space, and you're ready to go.
Resistance training – any training where you work against resistance (weights. bodyweight, etc.) – can not only help you build muscle but also lose weight more sustainably. Research shows that resistance training reduces lean mass loss during weight loss, meaning when you're losing weight, you'll lose mostly fat if you work out. The study's findings also showed a favourable correlation between exercise and body composition changes in adults with overweight or obesity.
