Fat Lose Without Losing Muscle
It takes a very careful balancing act with your diet to achieve fat lose without losing muscle. I’ve put together six top strategies that give you these kind of results.
Keep On Eating
Believe it or not, it’s all about increasing the amount of food you’re eating, not decreasing it. It’s not about taking in more calories, but rather providing your body with the protein it needs at the proper times.
When you go for a long period of time, your body kind of freaks out. The next time you eat, your body will think that meals are going to come few and far between, so it will store whatever it can from that meal as fat.
It’s extremely important to keep your blood sugar levels .. well, level. When they fluctuate up and down, it’s nearly impossible to lose fat. When you go for an extended amount of time without food, your blood sugar level drops dramatically.
Eating a giant meal (even a healthy one) will put a huge strain on your body and cause it to rush through the digestion process. When your body isn’t running as efficiently, it isn’t going to get everything it should out of each meal. This will cause your body to crave more food sooner than you should. I suggest you eat every 2 to 4 hours.
Clean and Lean Food
When you eat processed simple carbohydrates you cause a huge jump in your bodies insulin levels. Try to avoid foods made with white flour and sugar. Instead eat proteins that are very lean and complex carbohydrates from fresh fruits and vegetables.
Break Off the Love Affair with Sugar.
If you’re not care, you’ll consume more sugar than you thought you were. Why? It’s hidden with all these fancy names. The next time you’re doing an ingredient check, look for things like glucose, sorbitol and even lactose. They’re all types of sugar.
The Perfect Drink: Water
If you’re not drinking about 8 glasses of water each day, you’re depriving your body of a very important need. Water will help your body to digest your food more easily and efficiently, making sure it absorbs all the nutrients you’re offering it. What will also help your tone your muscles and lose weight.
Be Pro Protein
When you don’t give your body enough protein it will turn to it’s own lean muscle to gain energy. This obviously isn’t a good thing. So, keep putting lean and clean proteins in and you’ll be fine. Sometimes this is difficult to do. Try eating fish and chicken as much as you can. You can even throw in some lean beef every once in a while.
Rotate Carb Amounts
Rotating carbohydrates allows you to control and manipulate your blood sugars and insulin response so you are allowing your body to burn more calories for energy instead of storing excess carbs as fat. Carbohydrate cycling is the act of lowering your carb intake for 1-2 days and bringing it back up. This keeps your metabolism from slowing down and makes dieting easier knowing that you can have higher carbs and calories in a few days.
If you have been struggling with weight loss and desire to lose fat fast then look at your carb intake and consider using “carb rotation”. Soon, you’ll see the results you’ve been seeking.
