Bonus Tip: Supercharge Your Calorie-Burning Workouts
There are little
tricks you can use to make your cardio workouts a little more
heart-pounding. For example, if you like to run or jog, try doing so
on a surface other than concrete. Loosely packed dirt, sand, or water
will provide lots of resistance, making your body work harder than
ever. Jogging through water can burn up to 17 calories a minute!
You can also add
resistance by wearing wrist and ankle weights. They make it just a
bit harder to lift your arms and legs, which means more calories
burned during your workout.
Calorie-Burning Recap
Let’s review
some of the many ways you can burn more calories:
- Eat the right foods, several times throughout the day.
- Use ginger and green tea to heat up your metabolism.
- Rev up your workouts with added resistance.
- Do something fun for your cardio exercise.
- Use heart-healthy fats in your meals.
- Don’t cut out any food groups.
- Stay hydrated.
- Learn to stretch and relax.
- Get plenty of Vitamin C, B complex, and calcium.
- Get adequate rest at night and between workouts.
- Know how many calories you need and how many you burn.
- Learn to work around holidays, children, and other distractions.
- Do the most effective exercises for your abs, arms, and legs.
- If you’re stuck at your desk, stretch or fidget to burn calories.
- Keep burning calories by exercising while you run errands.
- Nourish your muscles with lean protein.
- Take up gardening – your lawn and your waistline will thank you!
Once you’ve calculated your BMR,
you’ll have a good idea of how many calories your body requires
each day. Take into account the calories you expend during exercise.
Then start keeping track of the food you eat each day.
Between diet and exercise, you’ll
need to create a calorie deficit of 3,500 calories per week to lose a
pound of fat. That’s a healthy rate of weight loss. Any faster, and
you risk gaining the weight back very quickly.
Fortunately, for those of us who aren’t
exactly fans of exercise, you can burn hundreds of calories each hour
just by doing fun things. Get inspired to dance, play childhood
games, join a sports league, or dive into a pool. You’ll have a
great time while the calories burn away.
Good luck!

Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle
By Tom Venuto
Tom is one of the most respected names
in the bodybuilding game because of the amazing physique he has built
without the use of steroids or other drugs.
Here is a guy who has competed in
bodybuilding 28 times at between 3.7% and 4.5% body fat, which is a
phenomenal achievement when you realize that it's been done
naturally.
Therefore when Tom decides to write
down his fat loss secrets then you just have to take a look.
Tom's program is based on using the
right type, frequency and intensity of exercise (BURN), which allows
you to actually eat more (FEED) and still easily shed your unwanted
body fat. There is NO starvation dieting involved.
This program also allows you to keep
your muscle, which is important because most conventional diets cause
you to lose at least a pound of lean tissue for every pound of fat
you lose. Retaining muscle is the key to optimal fat burning
metabolism.
