Are you having difficulties burning fat and getting toned? In this article here, I would like to talk about 2 quick methods that will help you lose pounds, burn fat, and help with you getting toned fast.
#1.
Super intense workouts - Guys, if you want to get toned fast and burn off that stubborn fat, you are going to have to up the intensity.
Going for nice long walks around the neighborhood is great for walking the dog or burning off some dinner calories during the evening..
..
BUT..
..
if you want to burn fat and get toned..
..
you are going to have to SWEAT! Don't be scared! There's only one thing you should be scared of...
and that would be the consequences of excess fat.
But, we're going to take care of that now..
..
Some of the best types of workouts that fall into the intense category would be sprints, and incline treadmill.
Sprinting is simply running at full speed between two locations (length of a basketball court) for up to 10 minutes per session.
Incline treadmill power walking is done by setting the treadmill to a speed of 3.
0 and an incline of 5 to 15 degrees.
That type of workout is also done in 10-15 minutes.
#2.
Proper nutrition - Ladies and gentleman, it begins and it ends with proper nutrition.
No matter how much you are working out, if you are not eating properly...
you will not see results.
Proper nutrition consists of getting ALL of the following foods: protein, fiber, complex carbs (whole grains), healthy fats (monounsaturated, Omega), and of course, foods rich in vitamins and minerals.
Proper nutrition also consists of how much you eat.
How much to eat? Eat the amount of calories you are supposed to get based off of your current weight.
For getting toned and losing weight, you burn off calories..
..
you DO NOT REDUCE YOUR CALORIE INTAKE.
Reducing your calorie intake will slow down your metabolism.
