Fat Loss Tricks

QUICK FAT REDUCING TRICKS
1. A good fat burning trick is to begin with a breakfast that can help kick-start the fat burning process. Protein rich foods, such as omelets or even a protein shake can be a great start to the day. Although, you should make sure the portion size is kept small as you won’t want to add unnecessary calories to the diet. Eating high protein foods can increase your metabolism by up to 25%, giving a great boost to results over the first few months of any weight loss program. With correct dietary tricks you won’t need to wait until the workout to start burning the fat!
2. Always try to do some form of exercise in the morning, preferably before breakfast. This is usually a good time to do it because the body’s fat burning is set and readily available. Eating breakfast before exercising provides extra blood sugar which will be used during the exercise period over stored fat. If you’re too hungry or your blood sugar is low, then maybe a banana would be a good choice as its light in calories and will give just a little sugar to help push you through the exercise session. If morning exercise is out of the question, then try for mid-afternoon.
3. Eat within half hour after exercising. Exercise causes the enzymes that process nutrients to be highly active, thus eating at this stage makes sure all nutrition and energy is utilized for recovery and replenishment purposes and less likely to be stored as fat you’ve just burnt off! This is also a great time to eat your highest calorie meal of the day.
4. Try not to eat late at night. Our metabolism slows down towards bedtime, so eating late means any calories have a greater chance for storage as fat. If you must eat, just snack on fruit or something just as light.
5. If you would like a supplement to boost your fat burning potential then think about taking L-Carnitine. This is an amino acid in protein, especially red meat. It has been shown to push fat into the cells and prompts it to be burned as fuel. Many competitive bodybuilders use L-Carnitine when cutting up for a show. The supplement is also safe to use by anyone and does not have any side effects. Just follow the directions in the instructions.

FITBALL CRUNCH
Start – From a seated position on the ball, walk your feet out until the ball is fully supporting your mid to lower back region. Cross your arms over your chest or place your finger tips lightly on the sides of your head.

Movement – Contracting the abdominals, raise your upper body about half way up until you feel a full contraction. Slowly return to the starting position.

Key points – Exhale while raising your body. Inhale while returning to the starting position. Be sure to keep your head and neck relaxed.

Caution – The ball should not roll forward and back – it should remain stationary. For added support spread your feet wide the first time you try the exercise.

REVERSE AB CURL
This exercise is for the lower abdominal region and is very challenging.

Place all your focus on the lower abdominal area contracting. It may be difficult to initially concentrate on the area, but once you master the movement with the correct mental concentration, you’ll really feel the area being worked

Start – Begin on your back on a mat with your back relaxed and your hands on the floor by your hips. Raise your legs into the air and focus on keeping your upper back pressed into the floor throughout the exercise.

Movement – Contracting your abs, raise your butt and gently roll your hips off the floor, stopping when you feel a full contraction of your abdominals and can no longer lift your hips. Slowly return to the starting position and repeat.

Key points – Exhale while lifting your hips. Inhale while returning to the starting position.

Caution – Do not swing your legs.

BICYCLE MANEUVER
Research consistently rates the Bicycle Maneuver as one of the most effective abdominal exercises.

Start – Lie on your back on a mat keeping your lower back in a comfortable position. Place your finger tips lightly on the sides of your head and lift your knees up to about a 45 degree angle.

Movement – Slowly go through a bicycle pedaling motion alternating your left elbow to your right knee, then your right elbow to your left knee.

Key points – Your legs and shoulders should remain elevated from the floor during this exercise and the lower to the ground that your legs bicycle the harder your abs have to work.

Caution – Do not pull on your head and neck during this exercise. Do not perform this activity if it puts any strain on your lower back.

DOUBLE CRUNCH
I like the double crunch exercise because if performed correctly, you can isolate the lower and upper region of the abdominals. Please note, contrary to popular belief, we do not have separate upper and lower abs.

Start – Lie on the floor face up. Bend your knees until your legs are at a 45 degree angle with both feet on the floor. Your back should be comfortably relaxed on the floor. Place your finger tips lightly on the sides of your head or have your hands crossed over your chest.

Movement – Contracting your abdominals, raise your head and legs off the floor toward one another. Slowly return to the starting position stopping just short of your shoulders and feet touching the floor.

Key points – Exhale while rising up. Inhale while returning to the starting position.

Caution – Keep your eyes on the ceiling to avoid pulling with your neck. Your hands should not be used to lift the head or assist in the movement.

Obesity Epidemic – US crawls into 4th epidemic year…..

The United States is well into its fourth decade of the “obesity epidemic,” and no matter how loudly we repeat the refrain “eat less and exercise more,” the numbers on our collective scale keep creeping upward.

Is weight gain caused by individuals’ poor diet and lack of exercise? Or is it an unavoidable effect of an abundant food supply, out-of-control marketing and unlucky genetics? And if most of the evidence points to the latter, why do government agencies continue to use tax dollars to promote solutions that have no hope of working?

In May, HBO aired “Weight of the Nation,” a miniseries produced with the Institute of Medicine, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the National Institutes of Health. The four-part series made an impassioned case for the dangers of overweight and obesity, and the need to act now before it is too late for a generation of Americans.
