But it isn’t over, there are many ways in which you can reverse the vicious fat gaining cycle. And it doesn’t have to be a long drawn out process. There are steps you can take now that will have an immediate effect on your metabolism and set you on the path to melting fat off your body at an alarming rate. Here are five that you can start right away that will get your fat burning engine revving.Start drinking lots of water.
1. Drinking lots of water will prepare your body to become efficient which your metabolism likes very much. A hydrated body means hydrated muscles and hydrated muscles work at an optimal level. And when your muscles work at an optimal level, your metabolism speeds up. Since your muscles are the engine that is your metabolism, healthy muscles are essential.
2. Schedule and eat five to six small meals per day. This has you eating every three to three and a half hours. Your metabolism likes to know it isn’t going to run out of energy and it uses past experience as its indicator. So if you only eat one to two meals per day, your metabolism prepares for that by storing excess energy to use during the long periods between and does this in the form of fat. However if you get on a schedule of eating five to six small meals per day, your metabolism recognizes this and realized that it doesn’t have to store excess energy because it knows it is going to get more very soon, so it burns off the excess energy helping you get leaner.
3. Ditch the food labels. Foods without labels are just that foods. There is no need to put a label on the food because it is obvious to the consumer and will also be obvious to the body. Foods such as vegetables, fruits, most lean proteins, raw nuts must be abundant in your diet to assure your metabolism runs high and efficiently. These foods are not only healthy but also provide a spike in the metabolism simply by eating them. The body works harder to digest raw foods therefore expends more calories from that food just to digest it.
4. Take a Multivitamin. Taking a multivitamin is very important not only for fat loss but also for your health. In order to get all your vitamins and minerals in your food, did you know you have to eat 7-10 servings of fruit AND vegetables per day? That is virtually impossible and maintain a calorie deficit for losing fat. In order to make up for this discrepancy, so the logical solution is a multivitamin. Select multivitamins that are whole food based meaning they were made from sources of foods to get the vitamins and minerals that make up the product. These can be found mostly at natural food stores . Two things to look for: typically the multivitamins stink if they are natural, and they will be pricy. But don’t overlook them because they can mean the difference between 5 pounds and 25 pounds lost.
5. Perform weight training. Weight training or resistance training is the direct action you can take to boost your metabolism. In order to directly increase lean muscle you must train with resistance. Cardio and nutrition alone isn’t going to do it. This is too often the missing component in a fat loss program. Too often people are afraid they will get big and bulky. Most people who train with weights have that as their main goal and not get big and bulky. In all actuality it is harder to get big and bulky with weight training than it is to get lean.
There are the five that you can implement today. Set a plan and attack your fat using these five ways to boost your metabolism.
