Exercise Vs. Calorie Reduction

Many people believe they can effectively lose fat simply by exercising or increasing their activity level. This is not the case. Most activities do not burn enough calories to impact weight loss to a degree that will make a big difference. It is essential to consider how many and what kinds of calories we are consuming, especially during a weightloss program.

 

It is also important to understand that increased activity levels will increase appetite. In other words, if you are working out everyday as part of a new weightloss program, your body will crave MORE calories. You must pay attention to how many calories and the quality of the calories you are consuming. Reducing calorie intake is a much more practical and time efficient means of loosing weight. When you combine a reduced but nutrient-rich calorie plan with stimulation of your metabolism through muscle building exercises at mild to medium intensity, you will get results FAST and feel great during the process.

Ideally, caloric intake should be reduced enough to cause the maximum possible rate of fat loss without a loss of muscle or other lean tissue. Muscle tissue is highly metabolically active, and responsible for a significant portion of the calories you burn each day. A loss of muscle results in reduced metabolic rate, so everything possible should be done to maintain muscle while fat is lost. This applies whether you work at a desk or are a competitive bodybuilder.

 

3 Keys For Successful Weightloss

1. Reduce calories & eat the right kind of calories
2. Build muscle
3. Drink plenty of water

Count your calories but make your calories count.

Reduce your calories based on your size and body fat ratio. Your body can only metabolize (burn) so much fat into energy a day. If you reduce your calories too much, your body will begin to consume muscle. You may lose weight on a bathroom scale (temporary loss of water and muscle weight), but you will not achieve your ultimate objective of getting lean and staying that way. The calories you do consume should be full of nutrients. Most breads and pastas are not in this catagory. Fruits and vegetables are. Do you see why it is so important to make sure that the calories you DO eat are full of nutrition? You only get so many per day so make them count!
