The most important part of fat loss is knowledge. People simply do not have enough information and clear understanding about exercise and nutrition to be successful. I have a few simple fat loss tips that can be really helpful to you.
1. Use exercise to reduce calories rather than dieting
The most difficult part about weight loss, is staying on a diet. We all know how dieting can be very hard some times. Starving yourself is not the best option available and if you eat less more often, the harder it becomes for you to strict to your diet. Do not make your diet plans very strict or they will backfire on you. Instead the more effective way to burn calories in less time is through exercising. First you do not have to starve yourself and therefore you have less chances of failure. Second exercise increases your metabolic rate and ultimately you burn more calories whereas strict diet lowers your metabolic rate. Exercise is a must and both weight training and cardiovascular training are essential.
2. Eat more frequently and consistently
Consistency is another important aspect to be kept in mind. In order to lose fat you do not have to skip meals and must eat the right amount of foods and in the right frequency. Some people believe that skipping their one time meal more often will help them, but the fact is, it slow downs their metabolism rate and their next meal turns out to be more large. Foods which consist of the adequate amount of proteins, carbs and fibers should be consumed in 3-4 small meals a day.
3. Do not stay on dieting for too long
Some people have developed a habit to go on dieting but these people fail most of the time because what they don't know is staying on dieting for too long forces our body to fight back and eat more sooner or later. Torturing yourself is not the solution and you should also give yourself a break and increase calories from time to time . For ex - consume lower calories for 3 days then increase your calories a little bit more on the fourth day. Just as you cannot stay under water for too long, so you can also not stay on negative calories for long.
4. Be slow and be patient
The biggest mistake most people make when trying to lose fat is that they are in a hurry to lose 3-4 pounds per week. The problem here is you not only lose your fat, but you also lose your muscle mass. Be patient and take your time. Some people do lose more than 5 pounds per week, but they kept failing because they are also likely to lose muscle mass. Losing 3-4 pounds per week is good enough until you are not losing muscle mass. The key is to lose fat without losing muscle mass.
