Lance Thomas asked:


To burn fat fast you must really make sure you pay attention to what you’re putting into your body to make it easier for your body to focus on burning the fat. If you’re consistently putting high fat foods into your body, then obviously it will be harder and take longer for you to accomplish your goal of burning the fat. There are so many ways out there offering the solution to burning the fat that it is hard to know which one is the right one for you.

I have looked around for a solution that actually works. I got fed up with looking around through so many different products and not finding one that actually kept its promise of burning fat fast. So many promised that I would be able to burn fat in this amount of time just by taking this pill or doing this movement in this amount of time, but none seemed to work. I eventually came across this EXCELLENT program that finally produced all the results I was looking for and kept the promise of it’s claims. The program is well detailed and planned out and I was able to follow it without a problem and the fat seemed to just melt off my body. I had no idea it would work so well and recommended it to a few of my friends and now they all thank me for telling them about it and that’s really all I did. If you’re interested in this program click on the link I have provided. Good luck P.S. IT WILL WORK!

The fastest way to burn fat is to eat and train to fire up your metabolism. The faster your metabolism, the easier it will be to burn fat. It’s that simple. Here are 3 tips that will boost your metabolism and blowtorch of your ugly fat in no time.

3 Tips That’ll Show You How To Burn Fat Fast

1. EAT MORE FOOD

I know this sounds counter-productive, but eating more food does speed up your rate of fat loss. Cutting calories too far, causes our metabolism to slow right down, making it much harder to lose fat.

You see, our body fat is stored on our bodies to survive when food is in limited supply. Drastically cutting calories causes our body to be reluctant to use up our fat stores. This is because it doesn’t know how long this period of food shortage will last for. So, for energy it will actually break down our muscle tissue and use that instead. This results in a loss of muscle and a slower metabolism.

If you eat more food, your body will think that hanging onto our excess fat is pointless. This is because there is more than enough energy coming in. It will then feel a lot more comfortable to use our fat stores for energy. Exactly what we want!

A good rule of thumb is to eat 12-13 calories per pound of bodyweight.

2. PERFORM STRENGTH TRAINING

Muscle burns calories. Every extra pound of muscle we add burns an extra 50-100 calories a day. Think of our metabolism as a car engine. The larger the engine the more fuel it burns, even while sitting at the lights.

There are 2 main reasons why strength training increases our metabolism. Firstly, it builds muscle. This increases our metabolism permanently. The more muscle we add, the faster our metabolism.

Secondly, the intense nature of strength training causes a temporary increase in our metabolism. What’s great is that our metabolism can remain elevated for up to 72 hours after our workout.

All that is needed is to take each muscle to failure once a week. Focus on the bigger lifts such as Dips, Chin Ups, Bench Press, Rows, Squats and Deadlifts. These exercises are much more efficient at stimulating the metabolism. There is a reason why they work so well though, they are hard work!

3. PERFORM INTENSE CARDIO

Like strength training, intense cardio also gives our metabolism a temporary boost for up to 72 hours afterwards. However we must really push the boundaries for this to happen. Walking or jogging has little to no effect on our metabolism.

The fastest way to speed up the metabolism and burn fat is to train hard, not long. An intense 10 minute run will do more than a 45 minute jog. This is because it speeds up the metabolism, stimulates muscle building hormones and burns more calories.

A great workout would be something as simple as going as hard as possible for 10 minutes in any exercise you choose. Increase the intensity by striving to outdo yourself each workout. Another great way is interval training. An example would be to go as hard as you can for a 30 seconds, followed by 30-60 seconds of active recovery. Do 6-10 total reps.

My personal favourite is sprinting. Choose a distance between 30-150m. Sprint the whole distance like your life depended on it. Recover by walking back to the starting line. 5-8 sprints will be more than enough.

Implement all 3 of these tips together and you’ll build a red-hot metabolism. Your body fat will have no chance of surviving!



Lose Weight

This is a subject not many worry about nor take the time to care about. This is very unfortunate as blood sugar plays a vital role in your weight gain or weight loss. Studies have reported that even in healthy people high blood sugar after meals can over time damage the body. Blood sugar effects everyone. It should concern you even if you are thin and healthy, and especially if you don’t get enough exercise or carry extra weight around your middle.

When you eat a big meal, especially one with a lot of starchy or sugary foods, the food makes its way through your stomach and intestines and then is converted into glucose, the main fuel for your muscles and even your brain. Boom! You now created instant energy. However, a big starchy meal can give the body more glucose than it needs. In fact, it can raise blood sugar levels twice as much as another, healthier meal would.

If you eat a big pile of french fries or something of that nature, your body has to deal with a serious flood of blood sugar. What happens now is your body reacts by pumping out too much insulin. May be even more insulin if you are overweight. The extra insulin will bring the blood sugar down way too far. It sticks around and does this for hours. Your body then can fall into a semi-starved state. This can cause your blood sugar to be even lower than it was before you ate the meal. Your body knows that your blood sugar is low so it reverses everything and spits out hormones that raise blood levels of sugars and fats. The really bad part about all of this is now your brain is sending signals that you are hungry. Whether you ate more calories than you even needed at lunch doesn’t matter. Your body is so low on sugar if thinks you need food. Now everything in front of you looks appetizing.

The best way to avoid all of this is just to start eating the right type of foods. Foods like white rice, white bread, potatoes, and sugary drinks seem to be the biggest cause of these type of reactions. You can keep your blood sugar at healthy levels by eating more wheat and oat carbohydrates. Those of you with a “spare tire” around your middle are most likely having problems controlling your blood sugar. This spare tire will fall off very fast if you learn to manage your blood sugar correctly.

There is a great deal of studies proving a direct link to many forms of cancer that our society experience and get diagnosed with everyday. That subject is going to be discussed in a “blood sugar and burning fat part 2”.
