Ask most people what their New Year's Resolutions were and
you'll likely find the answer- lose weight. With so many of us
wanting to shed the pounds, why is the obesity pandemic reaching
new heights?
Weight loss tends to conjure up images of near starvtaion and
tons of cardio.
Most of us do not even start on our New Year's
Resolution simply cause the thought of it stops us dead in our
tracks.
What if we had tools for weight loss? 4 simple ideas that
are practically guaranteed to shed fat, drop the weight, and
slim us down?
That would be a major first step towards a weight
loss program.
Tool 1- Strength Training We have to recoginze that as a viable
fat-loss method. Every pound of muscle burns 35-50 calories per
day. Adding lean muscle mass is the best way to jump start and
sustain fat reduction.
Tool 2- Cadrio Cardio is good, but it's not the only tool we
should use. Cardio shuold be done as a partner to the other
ideas. Anything that gets your heart pumping will do: walking,
jogging, running, dancing, swimming, biking, or house cleaning.
Tool 3- Nutrition Nutrition is often the hardest part of the
weight loss process. We simply fogrot how to eat well in our
culture. We need to eat protein, carbs, and fat to sustain our
way of life. Cut one of the trhee out and imbalances will occur.
Tool 4- Rest Rest is not a luxury.
It is a necessity. We should
eat well every day and we should workout 5-6 tiems per week. The
leftover 1-2 days are meant for rest. Our muscles need time to
rebuild and repair themselves.
Using strength training, cardio, nutrition and rest to our
advantage will result in fat loss. There is no magic bullet.
Just simple and effective tolos to create the body we want.
Make
a promsie to yourself right now.
Try using the aobve tools
consistently and to the best of your ability for 4 weeks. You'll
look great and feel amazing.
