Weightloss

Want a slimmer waistline in a few weeks’ time?

It’s certainly possible. And easier than you may have thought.

When it comes to losing that bulge around the middle, most of the advice you’ve probably heard is completely wrong.

It’s not surprising. There are quite a few myths out there when it comes to getting a flat stomach.

For example:
* “You’ve got to do 100s of crunches to lose that belly”
* “You need to starve yourself”
* “All you need is XYZ brand’s diet pill.”
* “You must do hours on end of low-intensity cardio, like walking on the treadmill.”

The truth is that it’s not that complicated to lose your abdominal fat.

Here’s all you need to know:

EAT RIGHT. Sounds simple enough, but how many people are really doing it? Based on the obesity rate in America, not many. Eat right means eating properly to fuel your body, boost your metabolism and burn more fat. Avoid all junk foods, including fried foods, soft drinks and heavily processed foods. Stick to foods that have only a few ingredients that you can identify as real food. That means good protein sources, plenty of fruits and vegetables, and healthy fats (nuts, olive oil, flax seed oil, avocados, etc.) Also, try to eat 4 – 6 small meals evenly spaced throughout your day.

TRAIN WITH WEIGHTS. This one’s a given. Train 3 – 4 times per week. Focus mainly on compound movements. This means the “tough” exercises like squats, lunges, deadlifts, cable chest press, barbell rows, etc. These are effective at building muscle and priming your metabolism to burn fat like nobody’s business. Plus, these kinds of exercises are more functional and will provide the strength you need to go about your day-to-day life.

DO CARDIO SMARTLY. Once you’re eating healthy and working out with weights, it’s time to add in a little cardio. But not the kind of cardio you see everyone else at the gym do. The goal isn’t to see how long you last walking on the treadmill. Instead, you’re going to do HIGH INTENSITY INTERVAL TRAINING (HIIT).

Simply put, this means alternating between all-out exertion and resting. For example, if you’re on the treadmill, you’d warm up for the first 2 minutes, then sprint as fast as you can for 1 minute. Then rest the next minute. Do this for 9 more sets of 1 minute exertion followed by 1 minute rest. Doing cardio this way burns more calories in less time, since you’re “upping” the intensity factor.

So there you have it. Follow these three tips starting today and you’re bound to lose belly fat before Summer’s out.

Okay, it’s Friday evening again, and all bets are off. Or not. Don’t make every weekend an eating free-for-all. Truly, those two days of eating bliss can really undue the five prior days of hard work and discipline. If you really want to make progress, and not just maintain, toe the line on the weekends. If you feel you need a treat, treat yourself for just one meal, not all 6 meals. Have a Happy and Healthy Weekend!
