When attempting to lose your body fat and gain muscle there are key things to remember.
Burning fat consists of some very essential elements.
Most people don’t realize the importance of a simple meal.
When the body does not receive the nutrients it needs regularly it stores what it gets for later.
This is a natural reaction, like self preservation.
Breaking up your meals into smaller portions allows the body to use what it takes in. Eating breakfast is the most important thing you can do for yourself.
Exercise in the early hours gives the metabolism a kick start in the right direction; by eating afterwards it gives your body the energy it needs to burn the non essential fat. Exercising early in the morning helps relieve stress throughout the day, as well as gives the body the energy it needs to get moving.
Just thirty minutes 2-3 times a day can increase your metabolism tremendously.
Cutting out certain types of foods reduce your fat intake which will make the body burn the fat that already is there.
Whenever exercising it is important to keep a regular schedule this will get the body moving faster.
By staying away from natural sugar or fructose will help in the burning fat process.
When you burn fat your body releases the toxins that were locked in your cells causing some ill feelings, or side effects.
Gaining muscle mass is achieved by the diet you use. Gaining weight in a good way or by fat is determined by how and when you eat. Eating healthy in the morning is important to your cause.
Keeping a log of your intake for at least two weeks before you start is pertinent to your success.
Averaging your intake over those weeks will help you determine a daily calorie amount.
By adding 300- 500 calories to your diet slowly will help you see if your plan is taking effect; continue adding until a gain is started.
Plan lean muscle gain and control the amount of calorie intake.
Bringing in more calories then you burn is important in gaining mass.
The proper balance of the diet is important also in achieving the gain.
Protein levels should be 20-50% of the diet, Carbohydrates should be 30-60% of the diet balance, and fat intake should be 20-30% of your daily balance diet.
However just as important as the food is the fluid.
Water is essential to all of us and represents 90% of our body make up. Burning calories uses a lot of this necessary mineral, so replacing it is equally important.
Drinking 8oz for 10-15 lbs or bodyweight a day is vital to the body’s healthy functioning.
There are several lean protein choices to help aid in the loss of fat but not loss of Body Muscle.
Chicken and tuna are good for this because they are both lean meats and low in fat. Pre and post workout nutrition is also important make sure you keep busy to elevate the metabolism throughout the day.
