Top 5 tips for Fat Loss

The concept of fat loss is not hard.  It really is a matter of calories in v calories out.  However there are some tips that can make the process a lot easier.

Look at your diet and see where you can make small changes.  Losing bodyfat is 90% nutrition so you need to see where you can make small changes.  For example, Low fat spread instead of butter, brown bread instead of white, and make sure you read the labels of the food products that you buy.

Look at your sugar inake.  It is said that sugar is the new fat, and it is important that you are aware of the amount that you eat as unused sugar is stored as bodyfat.  Again look at the food labels.  Anything that ends in ose, such as dextrose, fructose, is basically sugar, so beware.

Try to increase your activity. Any activity is better than none, so try to take part in those that you enjoy.  For example walking the dog, taking the stairs, an even dancing are great ways to increase your activity levels.

You must do some sort of resistance training.  This can be just using your bodyweight, exercise bands, dumbbells or bodybars.  Muscle burns more calories than fat, so the fastest most efective way to lose fat is to do a well designed resistance training program.

Focus on large movements that burn the most calories. A poorly designed program includes too many exercises that focus on small muscles, which do not burn enough calories, and does not achieve the results that you want.

Fitness By Laws will give you expert advice on food, nutrition and support as well as design a program that suits your own individual needs.  To achieve fat loss quickly and effectively, contact us now.
