If you are one of the many thousands of people trying to figure out how to lose weight safely and effectively, you'll be pleased to read today's post. We are going to focus on the main areas where people go wrong and show you four or five simple, proven steps to building a leaner, fitter you
There is so much information out there that it has become almost too easy to get misled. People are afraid to commit to one goal because they are constantly being promised easier results elsewhere.
There is nothing stopping you from getting results and we are going to show you why it might actually be far easier than you have previously been led to believe.
Unlike most other advice on this topic, we have nothing to sell you. We aren't here to give you a miracle product or a dieting pill, so what you're going to get is proven, simple advice which has research to back it up.
Written below are three of the most important factors for your consideration.
* Learn how to control your diet by discovering how much to consume and what type of food to look out for.
* Your diet needs to be combined with some form of regular exercise activity.
* Half of the battle against the bulge is just learning how to avoid temptation.
To establish you daily calorie intake you simply need to multiply your target body weight, in pounds, by the figure twelve. Easier than you thought, right?
Too many diets go wrong due to the fact that the person cuts their total calorie intake too drastically and therefore cannot lose any weight because their body is hanging onto fat.
The most important step in your diet is splitting your calories between protein, fat and carbohydrates. Despite popular belief, you should never cut one of these nutrients out of your diet and if you do it'll only cause a negative outcome. A great split for your calories is 40% from carbohydrate sources, 20% from fats and 40% from protein rich foods.
Once that is in place it is time to hit the gym or get another form of exercise. The best form of exercise when it comes to cutting size is anything which elevates your heart rate. You don't need to subscribe to the old formula of endless hours on a treadmill, exercise like high intensity interval training is proven to yield better results and do it in a shorted time.
A combination of cardio and weights would be best, but if you are just starting out then you could literally just go for a brisk walk or swim. Exercise is exercise, no matter where it takes place.
A recent survey showed that people came off the rails of their diet plan the most when they were at their job midway through a tough shift. The combination of the easy access to junk food and the fact that they hadn't prepared any meals usually led them to undo all the good results they had worked hard to achieve thus far. Bear this in mind, protein has far less impact on fat storage than any other nutrient.
Feel free to make up a few protein rich snacks for your day of work. This will help you to stay away from the vending machine and continue getting results even when you're not in the gym.
As you can see, the confusion surrounding how to lose weight easily clears when you look at the proven principles. Most of the fitness industry suffers from this issue, ask anybody how to build muscle at your local gym and you'll get similarly mixed answers. Now that you know these three principles you are well on your way to success.
