2 Ways to Start Burning fat Quickly
By Adrian
Bryant 1. Start Exercising first thing in the morning.
As soon as you wake up in the morning workout for at least 30min to an
hour. Studies show that working out in the morning has been shown to
burn up to 3x as more fat as opposed to working out at any other time
during the day. Here’s Why:
During the day your body’s main source of energy is the carbohydrates
that you get from eating your meals. As you sleep at night for 6+ hours
your body uses up all those carbohydrates as energy for various bodily
functions that go on even while you sleep. When you wake up in the
morning your body doesn’t have any carbohydrates as energy to use and it
will look to burn body fat instead for energy.
For you to take advantage of this morning fat burning opportunity you
have to exercise first thing in the morning. Don’t eat breakfast because
if you do you’ll just give your body some carbohydrates as a source of
energy instead of the body fat that you want to burn for energy.
Another great thing about working out first thing in the morning is that
your metabolism gets revved up after your morning workout. Morning
workouts keep your metabolism elevated throughout the day. An elevated
metabolism throughout the day only means that you’ll burn more calories
and lose more weight. If you workout at night you may still burn fat
while you workout but as soon as you go to sleep your metabolism will
slow down and you’ll miss out on all the extra fat that you can burn
during the day if you had exercised in the morning. When you sleep your
metabolic rate is always at its slowest.
Other reasons why its good to exercise first thing in the morning is
that you get the workout out of the way, and working out in the morning
will also reduce your level of stress throughout the day.
Advanced Tip: Want to burn even more
fat? Add another workout to your daily routine 4-6 hours after your
morning workout. Keep your already high metabolism higher by adding a
2nd workout during the day. If you're seriously thinking about adding a
2nd workout to your daily routine then try to do your cardio workouts in
the morning. Mostly fat calories are burned doing cardio at a moderate
intensities. Make your 2nd workout of the day a workout with weights.
Mostly carbohydrate is burned doing weight-training workouts. The muscle
that you build from weight training will also help you burn fat. 1lb of
Muscle burns 50 calories a day or 1lb of fat every 70 days. Not only
will you be burning more calories, you’ll look better – whatever your
weight is.
2. Eat Breakfast
Another way to keep your metabolism revved up all day long is to eat
breakfast. After you workout in the morning as discussed earlier, just
have breakfast and you’ll give your body the perfect 1-2 combination to
jump start your metabolism.
Eating breakfast in the morning is what gets your metabolism started.
Don’t skip breakfast and wait until mid-morning or afternoon to eat,
your metabolism will run slower causing you not burn any extra fat.
Think about this way-Your metabolism is a fireplace that’ll burn fat all
day long for you if you operate it correctly. When you eat breakfast you
are basically throwing a log onto that fireplace to get it started
burning fat.
Eating breakfast will help stop those cravings you may have later on in
the day and along with working out in the morning, eating breakfast will
also keep you energized throughout the day and lower stress levels.
Advanced Tip: Instead of eating only
2 more meals during the day like lunch & dinner, try to eat 4-5 more
small mini-meals spaced 2-3 hours apart during the day. Remember the
fireplace? By eating these mini-meals you'll be throwing just the right
amount of "wood" on the fireplace to keep your metabolism burning
calories throughout the day. Don't shut down your metabolism by eating
big lunches or dinners, keep that metabolism of yours burning fat all
day long.
