Lose Belly Fat and Get Fit
By Matthew Bettison of gladwin publishing
Most people would like to lose belly fat but tend to just put up with it. There is so much conflicting advice out there its difficult to know which way to go. There are supplements that promise results with no effort, and besides we’ve failed in the past so why should this way be any different? There are a number of ’systems’ that do work – the trouble is you don’t have the time to try them all! Below is one approach that has been proven to give results. It won’t take long to see if it works for you as the results start fairly quickly.
How to Really Lose Belly Fat – The Guide The strategy involves both diet and exercise – nothing new there. However, it this combination is unique.
The Diet – Get Your Furnace Going Low Volume – Little and Often is an effective, healthy, way of shedding pounds of fat from the body. Why?
Basically, the body burns energy evenly. Rather than the highs and lows you get from eating 2 – 3 big meals you eat smaller meals and so your metabolism stays higher for longer. You still need to make sure that overall your not eating more than your body needs otherwise you’ll just put on the fat again! Low-Carb diets (which by nature are high-fat diets) are difficult for many people to manage. Feeling hungry with Low Energy all the time isn’t comfortable. The most manageable change to your diet to lose belly fat is to eat less. Cut down on the stuff that is ‘bad’; fatty meat, white sugar laden drinks, and eat more of the ‘good’; lean meat and vegetables. Making a small adjustment rather than a big life change means it is more likely for you to stick with it.
The Exercise Loads and loads of aerobics right? Wrong! Overdoing cardiovascular exercise will also put your body in a state where it breaks down your hard earned muscle (catabolism) rather than fat. So how do we complement our belly fat-busting nutritional strategy with a belly fat-busting exercise routine? It’s called ‘Interval Training’, fartlek or more recently ‘High Intensity Interval Training’(HIIT). The idea is to perform some sort of cardio in cycles of ‘short high energy bursts then rest’ i.e. a period of higher intensity followed by a period of lower intensity. Why? Research shows that this type of exercise helps you lose fat better than conventional cardio, typically by about 50%. Also, for those who want to lose belly fat in particular, research has proven that HIIT can burn off more fat in this area than other parts of the body. An Australian study found that the HIIT group lost 3 times more fat and significantly more belly fat than the steady-state cardio group who actually exercised for twice as long! And it gets better as you only need to perform the HIIT method for 10-20 minutes at a time to get these results. Hopefully you can see that these unique approaches to diet and nutrition will work together to produce truly effective fat-loss program: 1. Get your body to burn fat for energy – and ditch the energy draining foods.
2. Then add a targeted exercise that will lose the most fat possible.
