8 ways for Healthy Living, Diet Plan & Effective Weight Loss: Part4

      4.      Progressive Strength Training

Each kilogram of your muscle tissue burns around 80 calories per day compared with around 5 calories per day for each kilogram of your body fat. While you are exercising you can increase the calories that your muscles use ten fold. Body fat is burned almost exclusively by muscle/ the more muscle tissue you have the more fat you use. Progressive strength training is the most effective way to increase muscle strength, muscle tone and metabolism.

      

Remember to exercise at-least 30 minutes a day to keep your body fit and strong. Do some weights to gain some muscle around your body, but make sure only do what you can.

      2. Plan for Fat Reduction (not weight loss)

You can only reduce body fat if you consume less calories and fat than your body uses for its metabolism, daily activity and exercise. Any effective body fat reduction will only happen when you create a deficit of at least 500 calories a day. Reducing the percentage of dietary fat alone will not produce weight loss unless total calories (energy input) are also reduced.

Make sure you eat food that gives you enough nutrients through out the day foods such as: fish, lean meat, vegetable , fruits and nuts as snack. This way you can cut back on fat and calories but make sure you don't cook your meals with lots of oil and butter or other fats. If you plan your weight loss, do everything in moderation you will see success in the future.

1.     Don’t diet      

95% of all people who lose weight through dieting end up the same or fatter within 12 months. That means 19 out of 20 dieters get fatter after dieting! This is because dieting reduces your lean muscle tissue and leaves you with a slower metabolism. This makes it even more difficult to keep the weight off. Every time you diet it gets harder.

So make sure don't just diet because you want to loose weight and be skinny. Diet because you want to change your lifestyle and gain more muscle tissue in which helps your body to be more fit, healthy and happy. Also dieting doesn't mean starve yourself it means eating healthy foods such as vegetables, fibers, fruits and meats in moderation and daily exercise.
