Michael Mosley has shared some valuable exercise advice for those looking to build an effective workout routine in the new year.
The new year sees many people make resolutions to get fitter and healthier, but it can be tough to know where to start. There is no shortage of slimming information out there that promises to bring life-changing results, but it's important to know the basics before delving into the advanced stuff.
Luckily, the health guru has spoken on what he says is the "best" exercise to build fat-burning muscle. The author of Just One Thing has released an extra long special of his podcast of the same name, where he spoke to a leading expert on the importance of exercise.
One movement that he particularly praised is a form of resistance exercise known as the squat. The movement requires a person to lower their hips from a standing position, bending to a 90C angle and standing back up.
"I was told by a number of people that the squat is probably the single best exercise you can do. It works on the biggest muscles in your body. There is also research that suggests it leads to increased blood flow to the brain."
His guest Professor Marie Murphy "endorses" Michael's claim regarding the squat as being one of the best exercises you can do, both for strength and getting your heart rate going due to the amount of muscles required for the move.
"You are getting your cardiovascular system going because the big muscles that require a lot of oxygen," she explained. "So if you employ two of the biggest muscles in your body - your quads and your glutes - you're going to challenge your cardiovascular system as well as your muscular system - it gets a vote from me too."
