5 Best Cardio Workouts To Reduce Fat

#3 Box Step-Up

Box step-up is an excellent aerobic exercise for burning the fat. Moreover, with its continuous motion, it engages the hamstrings and the glutes to a greater extent.

Instructions:

Step 1: Stand straight in front of an elevated platform with feet planted shoulder-width apart. Place your arms on the side and parallel to the body.

Step 2: Take a step onto the elevated platform with your left leg and follow it up using your right leg.

Step 3: Pause for a moment and return to the initial position. Perform the same motion on the other side to complete one rep.

Repeat the exercise for the recommended number of times.

Important tip: You could perform the box jump as an advanced variation of this exercise for a more targetted workout experience.
