Have you've fallen off track and having a hard time getting back on? Or that you're having a hard time getting rid of some stubborn fat? I'm here to help you by giving you some fat burning tips! Here are 5 that are sure to get the fat melting!
1) Never let yourself plateau! (you have to push pass this)
It's important to note that our bodies are built to adapt, so when you're doing the same workouts month after month your body will begin to take notice and work much more efficiently. You do not want this if you want results! Take your body outside it's comfort zone and mix up your workout schedule every month....or every couple weeks! (trust me when I say this works)!!
2) Lift weight and don't be afraid to get heavy!
Lifting weight is a great way to lose fat! Muscle burns fat! I can't stress how much! I know some of you women might feel like you'll bulk up lifting heavy, but our body's weren't really designed for bulkiness, so go ahead! I do! And my body is a fat burning machine because of it! And if you do feel like you're getting bulky, take your weight down a few pounds and stick to reps between 12-15.
3) Circuit or Interval train!
Circuit training allows you get more burn in. Work in 10 different exercises with very little rest in between. Because you're switching exercises at such a rapid pace, you're working a lot of different muscle groups and burning a lot more calories! Or here's another idea...if you're doing cardio and running on the treadmill for an hour..................BORING and not as effective as if you introduce change. Split up your time into 4 different segments and do one 15 minute segment with the treadmill, one with the stairclimber, one with the elliptical, and one with the bike! You'll burn more calories and work your body in more ways! Which in turn = more effective use of your workout time! Plus it is alot more fun
4) Toss the simple carbs and refined flour!
I know those yummy simple carbs are hard to live without, ( I love my synder chips) but it can be done! I do it, and so you can you! If you want to ever see that six pack you HAVE to eat right. Stay away from empty, simple, refined carbs such as white bread, pasta, and rice...and, of course, baked goods and sweet treats are out of the picture! Instead eat whole wheat or whole grains! Sugar and white flour are two MAJOR road blocks in the success of a smokin hot midsection!
5) Eat often!
Eat 5-6 times a day at 2-3 hour intervals! I know I've been repeating this a lot lately, but eating frequent smaller meals throughout the day keeps your metabolism up! Most people think they'll be eating too much, but you won't. You're body was meant to burn the fuel you feed it! Would you go without putting gas in you car? I don't think so.
These are just a few tips, but the main ones that are sure to put you back on the right track.
