Losing weight isn't as simple as just cutting calories and going on a random, fad diet. Permanent weight loss requires patience, clean eating, and regular exercise. This article is going to explain how to burn the most fat and get the body you've always dreamed of.
Changing your eating habits can make an enormous difference in how your body burns fat. Here are a few tips regarding your eating habits which will help boost your metabolism and get your body into fat burning mode.
1. Be sure to always eat breakfast. Breaking your "fast" caused by sleeping will remind your body to begin burning calories. Choose something healthy with a load of complex carbohydrates coupled with lean protein for a great way to start your day. A perfect example is a bowl of oatmeal with sliced fruit and one cup of low-fat yogurt.
2. Aim to eat four to five small meals per day instead of the "normal" three square meals. This will help you to maintain satiety, keep your blood sugar levels regulated, and your metabolism going. When your meals are spaced three to four hours apart, your body will realize that there is a steady source of energy coming in. This allows the body to become less likely to store calories therefore increasing your fat burning potential.
3. Try to eat as slowly as you possibly can. This means taking the time to thoroughly chew your food, to ease digestion and decrease incidences of flatulence. Eating slowly gives your stomach time to receive signals from the brain telling you that you are full. It also lowers the risk that you may overeat.
Regular exercise is an equally important factor in losing weight and burning fat. Scheduling regular exercise into your life is the proper way to create a calorie deficit that will change your body in the right way. Exercising doesn't have to mean long hours at the gym followed by more long hours on boring pieces of cardio equipment. The best way to keep up regular exercise is to do things you love such as rollerblading, ice skating, or cycling, obviously depending on the time of year.
Strength training for 30 - 45 minutes three times per week is all that is required to build lean muscle and keep your body tight and firm and even this can be performed in the comfort of your own home if you are willing to purchase some inexpensive pieces of equipment. Everyone can find 2 - 3 hours a week for exercise to help change their lives for the better.
