Everyone wants it to be quick. Everyone wants it to be effortless. Everyone also wishes to win the lottery. The reality of fat loss is there's effort involved.
Those gimicks don't work
There are numerous supplement ads, exercise gismos, and peppy, fit people dancing away fat on DVDs that make false promises that it's easy and painless, as do the supplement companies and diet centers.
These people or companies are not telling individuals what they need to hear, but rather what they want to hear.
If you want to lose fat, you need to hear this! You can! You can! You can lose fat!
Also, it's up to you to exercise and eat right. However, no one has ever really explained how to eat right and exercise for fat loss. That's about to change. I'm about expose the three most critical components to successful, long-lasting weight loss.
Three Synergistic Components to my Ultimate Fat Loss Strategy
Supportive Nutrition: By "supportive," I am referring to meals that support metabolism, meals that help maintain blood sugar levels, meals that provide optimal energy and meals that provide essential nutrients to keep your body functioning properly.
In order to get optimal nutrition to support your daily and exercise needs, you need to eat frequently throughout the day. If you want to boost metabolism, the speed at which your body burns through food, you must give the body food. If you missed last month's issue revealing the truth about metabolism, send me an email and I will be happy to send you a copy.
A supportive meal would be consumed every three to three-and-a-half hours and contains a good balance of lean protein, starchy carbohydrate, fibrous carbohydrates and healthy fats.
Moderate cardiovascular training: It is a mistake to believe that cardio exercise is the key to fat loss.
If you exercise aerobically, beyond your body's capacity to use fuel, your body taps into its muscle stores and as you lose weight, you also lose lean muscle.
When fat is burned, it has to be released into the bloodstream and transported into a muscle cell where it is burned as fuel. Therefore, muscle is your fat burning machine! You never want to decrease your muscle mass!
Resistance training: Now that we know muscle is the fat burning machine, if you increase muscle mass, even slightly, you increase metabolism, not only while you exercise, but while you sleep, eat, and think! Yes, you can burn calories even while you'll sleep, eat, and think. Thus, resistance exercise is vital to any successful fat loss program.
If you are seeking astounding fat loss results you must incorporate all three components into your lifestyle. By understanding and employing the three parts to your routine you will be able to achieve maximum fat loss in minimum time.
Stay tuned for next three installments of my column, as I reveal supportive nutrition, cardio exercise, and resistance training in more detail.
