7 Sneaky Fat Loss Tips you Probably Haven't Heard
Of! Copyright © 2007 Paul Mort
So, you're training hard, you're lifting weights, you're
interval training, you're cutting out all the cr** and
you've lost a fair few pounds. Congratulations!
But why the sad face? Oh....you can't seem to shift
that last few pounds that you REALLY want to unveil
your sexy tummy?
What's next then? Surely you don't give up now? You've
done so well to get as far as you have.
You have a few options actually, which are pretty obvious,
even to the untrained eye, here are just a few of them:
1. Train Harder 2. Train Longer 3. Do more workouts
4. Cut back on calories 5. Give up your social life
Now, you could do all or any of these, but will it
really be worth it? Do you really have time? If so,
then great, crack on but I wouldn't fancy being tied
to a treadmill and moving my mattress into the gym.
I'm also assuming you don't want to spend the very little
time you'll have away from the gym sitting at home on
your own,without the opportunity to eat out or have
friends over for a few glasses of red wine (for the
anti-oxidants of course)?
So how about I give you some options and tips that'll
make shifting that stubborn belly fat a hell of a lot
easier but I must warn you- They're SLY and they're
SNEAKY, not only that but they're downright SIMPLE TO
DO!
A few of these bad boys may come as a shock to you
but believe me, as simple as they are, they really do
work as you'll find out later.
So without further ado here they are:
1. Get to bed before 10:30pm- this is number one
for a reason IT WORKS!
Poor quality sleep and lack of sleep can be one of
the main contributers to fat storage. When you go to
bed too late (after 10:30pm) your hormones don't react
in a positive manner.You can become insulin resistance
and your body will really struggle to shrug off that
excess fat
So get to bed by 10:30 (at the latest) to make sure
you get the biggest 'hit' of the hormones that'll help
you get rid of bodyfat. I was recently at a seminar
in Dublin and the worlds highest paid fitness trainer
(since 1994 may I add) told us sleep was the NUMBER
1 factor in any fat loss program even ahead of diet
and exercise.
2. Start each day with a handful of nuts
Nuts are not only a great source of protein and good
fats- they help to balance out blood sugar early in
the morning, meaning you're more likely to use fat as
energy and can help curb cortisol, the hormone that
eats into your fat burning musle tissue!
3. Have an eggscellent breakfast
It's a study done by Dr. David Ludwig at Harvard University;
he studied groups of overweight individuals. The study
found that the group who ate a veggie omelette for breakfast
ate 81% less the rest of the day than a group who ate
porridge for breakfast.
4. Take more fish oil
Fish oil has many, many benefits to fat loss and overall
health but its ability to switch on the fat burning
genes and switch off the fat storing genes is second
to none. Fish oil is also great for balancing blood
sugar levels and reducing carbohydrate cravings.
5.Use milled flax seeds
Flax seed is a very good source of omega-3 fatty acids.
You may have already tried the oil (yuck) but try and
get your hands on the milled seeds.These are great sprinkled
on salads and thrown into a good protein shake. Flax
seed can help lower the amount of estrogen-16 in women's
bodies. Estrogen-16 causes fat storage in the hips and
thighs among other things. Green tea is also awesome
for reducing Estrogen-16 levels.
6. Find a better multivitamin
A good multivitamin to help boost the immune sytem
is vital in losing bodyfat. The stronger the immune
system- the quicker you burn fat.A good multivitamin
will also help meet nutritional deficiencies. In order
to find a good multi look at the kind of magnesium in
the vitamin. If it is magnesium oxide the vitamin is
worthless. Also, the manganese content should be as
low as possible, with less than 5-7 grams per day. A
good multivitamin to help boost the immune sytem is
vital in losing bodyfat. The stronger the immune system-
the quicker you burn fat.
7. Fire up your Butt Cheeks
90% of clients that visit me looking to look better
naked have dysfunctional' glutes. Meaning their
buttocks don't work properly. This can cause all sorts
of problems including: low back pain, knee pain, lack
of pelvic control and this condition can actually make
your stomach look bigger by causing the pelvis to tip'
forwards, hence making your tummy stick out! Try this:
clench your butt cheeks together in a standing position
for 10 seconds, repeat 5 times- do this before your
workout and as many times as possible during the workout.
8.... Oh I know I told you 7 BUT I thought I'd give
you a bonus'
Add salt to your water
Drinking more water to aid fat loss is obvious right?
fat loss releases toxins that are stored in your fat,
so, the more water you drink, the qukcer the body can
dump these toxins! Why the salt? Notice you pee quite
a lot when you up your water intake? Well adding a good
quality SEA SALT can actually help your body hold
on' and use more of the water than you drink. Meaning,
faster fat loss
So there you have it, the 7 most SLY, SNEAKY and SIMPLE
tips that you probably didn't know about!
Implement these into your current fat loss program
and I guarantee they'll make a big difference to your
physical appearance and body composition.
Don't believe me? Give them a whirl!
I implemented JUST the sleep to one of my client's
schedules and her fat loss sped so much that last weekend
she was cursing me as she bought a pair of jeans a size
smaller!! 14 days after making just that ONE change!
What are you waiting for go get sneaky!!
