What Do You Need To Do To Lose Weight?

By Russ Howe-P.t.i.


If you are one of the many thousands of people trying to figure out how to lose weight safely and effectively, you'll be pleased to read today's post. We are going to focus on the main areas where people go wrong and show you four or five simple, proven steps to building a leaner, fitter you

The industry itself is largely to blame for the amount of confusion in this area. Due to the fact that there is a lot of money to be made, you'll often see every supplement company or trainer promising easier results if you buy their product or join their client list. As a result, people are always trying to find a quick fix rather than just achieving their goals.

We have become so used to this mass confusion that we would now rather spend time looking for expensive, complex solutions when the truth is the old basics still work the best.


Watch the simple guide on how to lose weight featuring personal trainer Russ Howe PTI.



The steps we will explain here today are not for purchase, they are free. They're backed up with years of scientific research so you know they work and you may well be surprised by their simplicity.

Here are the three fundamental rules to a good diet.

* You must know where to get your calories from.

* Your diet needs to be combined with some form of regular exercise activity.

* Half of the battle against the bulge is just learning how to avoid temptation.

Most people have no idea how much to eat. In order to consume the right amount of calories per day simply take your goal body weight in pounds and multiply by twelve.

Most people who struggle to get rid of their belly are shocked to discover that they are actually under-eating. Like we said, it's not about how much you eat it's about where you get it from.

Next we need to get the right cut between fat, protein and carbohydrates because all three nutrients will play an important role in your body's rebuilding process. Do not cut any of them out, despite the hyped up celebrity diets which tell you to, it leads to unhealthy weight loss. A optimal split would consist of 40%, 40% and 20% between carbs, proteins and fats respectively.

Exercise is particularly useful to helping you achieve your long term goal and it will also enable you to achieve a toned appearance once you reach your target body weight. Try performing a few high intensity interval sessions each week in partnership with your healthy eating plan. You will elevate your heart rate and burn a lot of unwanted body fat in the process.

Furthermore, do not be afraid to use weights. This one applies mainly to women, many of whom still subscribe to the old myth that weights will only make you muscular. Think about that for a moment. If it were really true, then every man you saw at the gym would look like Sylvester Stallone! Weights will help you to burn even more calories as well as tone your muscles.

A recent survey showed that people came off the rails of their diet plan the most when they were at their job midway through a tough shift. The combination of the easy access to junk food and the fact that they hadn't prepared any meals usually led them to undo all the good results they had worked hard to achieve thus far. Bear this in mind, protein has far less impact on fat storage than any other nutrient.

So it makes sense to pack a few small protein rich snacks into your satchel before work and use them wisely throughout the day. Not only is it going to keep your diet on track, but it's going to curb your hunger while at your job.

You no longer need to wonder how to lose weight effectively because today's three steps have actually told you the answer. It may have been a lot easier than you thought it was going to be, too. Usually if you ask somebody for advice on how to build muscle you will be met with a bunch of similar over complicated answers, so our next post will focus on that topic for you.
