[.] Simple Tips For Your Weight Loss Program [.]

·        Replace your meals! If before this you always take rice, pasta, mee, meehoon, or kuewteow, now it’s time to overruled it!

Change it with fruits, vegetables and wholemeal bread. You can add up with protein sources such as tuna, chicken ham or meat.

Vege and fruits provide a very fast burning source of carbohydrates, which mean they are used up by your body as an energy rather that stored it and converted to fats. 

Lastly, fruits and vege contains 70% - 80% of water, which mean by eat those, your body will be energized throughout the day! 

As general rule, take 3-6 servings of vege, fruits and wholemeal bread everyday!

 

·         Drink at least 16 glasses of purified water! Normally, for average people their body just need 8 glasses, but if you want to burn fat fast, 16 glasses will get the job done.

Water helps to supercharge your cells, flush out harmful toxin, and boost your metabolism. So your body can burn calories and fats faster.

Don’t drink tap water. Drink purified water such as R.O water, filtered water or mineral water.

As an advantage, 16 glasses of water per day reduce caffein intake (if you are caffein lover!), because your energy and concentration levels will rise.

 

·         Do 10 - 20 Minutes of Light Resistance Training (you can see in previous topic – Morning Exercise), before you go for jogging, bicycle or swimming (Cardio Traning)...

If you want to burn up to 200% more fat during you aerobic or cardio workout routine, then you must do a light session of weight lifting or resistance training for about 20 minutes.

Your body does not burn fat for the first 20 minutes of any exercise! Thats right, if you run for 20 minutes without doing any exercise before-hand, you will only be burning glycogen, not fat. Glycogen is the source of energy used by your muscles.

·         Basically, you have to elevate your heart rate (H.R) for at least 20 minutes before your body starts burning fat.

The best way to elevate your heart rate and kick-start your metabolism is to do light resistance training for about 20 minutes before your cardio routine. What this does is two things:

1)      You break that 20 minute "plateau" your body needs to start burning fat.

2)      You raise your metabolism 100-200%, which means that while you do your cardio/aerobic routine, you'll literally burn up to twice more fat.

Resistance, or weight training boosts your metabolism like no other form of exercise, often for a period of 24 hours or more. So, your body will burn fat even while you sleep, as your muscles recover overnight.

 

·         Now you know why all those successful "aerobic videos" usually make you use resistance bands or small dumbbells as part of the workout routines. You can use resistance bands, free weights, or machines. Keep in mind that you must do "light" resistance training so you still have plenty of energy to run or do cardio. To see fast results from your workout routines, definitely follow this strategy for maximum fat loss.
