Fat Burning Tips

If you’ve been struggling with your weight for a while, you probably feel like you’re missing something, right?

The basics of fat burning are simple: Fat loss occurs when there is a caloric deficit in relation to calories compared to calories out. Your basal metabolic rate takes in consideration your body functions and how much that burns alone, which on average is 1200 but this figure depends on several factors. The activity you add to this versus the food intake will overall balance to a surplus or deficit.

Here are some fat burning tips to get you started:

Increase consumption of foods rich in fiber in your daily diet. Fiber helps to burn fat faster and promotes overall health. The best fat burning fruits include apple, blackberry, blueberry, banana, cantaloupe, orange, peach, grapefruit, lemon, strawberry, papaya, pineapple, and watermelon. The highest fat burning vegetables are asparagus, bean, broccoli, celery, cucumber, mushroom, spinach, pepper, spinach, salad green, tomato, onion, and zucchini.

Have small and frequent meals. Cut down your 3 large meals to 5-6 meals of smaller proportions Do not overeat and have food only when hungry. Avoid junk foods, sodas and fried foods.

Drink lots of water especially ice water. Water hydrates you, has zero calories and when it is cold you burn calories warming and absorbing it.

Be moderate in your food intake as this helps the metabolism process and helps burn fat faster. Also never starve yourself or overeat.

Include resistance training in your daily exercise regime. This helps to add muscle which in turn will boost your metabolism and burn fat fast.

Reduce your salt intake. Salt contains sodium, and too much sodium combined with fat might causes your body to hold water, thereby causing a large gain in water weight along with body fat. Use less salt while you are cooking.
