Your Body Weight - A Readily-Available Fat Burning Tool

In this post I will describe to you that your body weight is the greatest workout tool you need to lose those last inches of belly fat in as little as 90 days.

If you start to train using body weight exercises, not only will your workouts be faster and more simple to achieve, but you will also be able to vary the level of difficulty and duration of the exercises with no cost consequence to you. If, on the other hand you do not start using body weight exercises to help you lose stomach fat, you will probably not see any progress in your fat loss hopes and will continue to waste money on ineffective gym sessions.

Why is your body weight so good as a fat shedding tool?

The primary reason is that you can readily adapt your body position to make any ordinary exercise that little bit harder, much more challenging and at the same time focused on your main core muscle groups. You can do this in such as way as to imitate some of the more specific gym equipment.

You can also do it no matter how much you weigh. Obviously if you consider yourself to have fat you can reduce the intensity of a few exercises, but you will also know what is the correct level for you to push to. If you don't, get some advice before you begin.

The second reason is psychological. When you start to train using your body weight, and when you start out to see the results due to the intensity in some positions, both due to enhanced stability or increased repetitions, you get a burst of excitement and creativity. You can start to adapt and try different variations when it applies to training.

This improvisation is vital to how you lose belly fat, as it is a key part in making you stimulated to physically exercise. Ponder how you do the same gym workouts a lot of the time and see how effective they are at motivating you or losing belly fat?  Now think how it would really feel to be able to to exercise anywhere devoid of restriction and perceive that it is burning your physique fat.

You can do body weight workouts in a resort space, in the park, in the front space or on a boat. You can also adapt your environment to help.

The variety of body weight exercises to do begin from the simple every day workout routines that we all had to do in PE class at school. These can be:

  • Push-ups
  • Sit-ups
  • Running On The Spot
  • Lunges

Consider push-ups for example. You can make these tougher by elevating your lower limbs or by raising a leg up behind you as you do a push-up. You can also do side push-ups or if you are specifically adventurous, one-arm push-ups.

You can, and could, vary the intensity of your body weight exercises, either carrying out high intensity interval training, or gradual body tension workouts, in which you maintain for a few seconds for each and every repetition. This aids strength endurance.

You do not have to use any weights, although if you need to be resourceful you can. Having said that, by incorporating body weight exercises into your workout program, instead of doing specialised gym lessons with fancy shiny new equipment, you should get all the benefits, in actuality, much more added benefits with out the hassle of both the price or making the time for the type.

If you keep using these workouts you could see that your stomach fat, and all body fat, starts to lessen, provided of course  you are consuming food correctly. You need to mix the two for effective fat loss.

Changing How You Eat To Lose Weight And The Doubt That Comes With It

You know that feeling you get when you hear about how you need to 5-6 times a day to lose weight?

Or maybe you read some of my stuff where it says that a great way to lose weight is to eat 4 times a day...as it's actually easier to learn and do...but you get that that "ehhh I don't know" in your mind?

Well, I can recall from my own experience of being on the other end wanting to lose my last inch of belly fat, that the concept of eating more meals a day just seemed to be hassle. Unnecessary even.

I mean, you may be thinking..."I'm eating enough at the moment" or maybe you think that you are eating way too much, and you already know that this is the reason you are putting on weight?
How can eating more possibly help?

The real truth is going to be a bit of a mix of what you knew and something else. The secret to losing fat is to eat more. You eat to burn calories.

And think about this: if you don't change how you eat then you won't change your current weight...and it doesn't matter how much you try and work out.

So learning to, at least, see how you eat and how much food you eat gives you an edge over every one else who's struggling...because they don't really see exactly what and how they eat. They just have an image, a story of what they think they are eating.

The first stage before you even make a plan to change how you eat...is to get some evidence of what you are eating and the way you eat.

And the easiest way is to make a journal each day.

Now you'll probably get a rush of "ah no that's just hassle...I don't need to do that"...and it's natural for this reaction. But here's the thing:

What's the real harm in seeing in black and white how you eat, what you eat and when you eat?

What harm are you going to do yourself by getting this knowledge?

The answer is of course: none!

It will do you no harm at all...but it will do you a world of good!..because you will get to see the pattern of how you eat...and remember what you want to do is eat to burn calories

And here's just a rough guess:

  • You will probably see you aren't eating a proper breakfast
  • You will probably be having a bit more fatty foods, chocolate bars or muffins during the day.
  • You will probably be eating a BIG dinner packed with refined carbs like white bread, pizza base, chips (of the fries variety) or white rice

Now how do I know this?

Well...this is what I used to eat. I didn't eat a whole lot of processed foods, but I ate enough and in a pattern like this that it meant that my blood sugar level didn't stay steady during the day...so I didn't lose weight.

Because it leads to spikes in your insulin levels

Which then makes you start to turn your food into fat. The quicker the spikes, the quicker the onset of turning the food you eat into fat.

So before you learn to keep that blood sugar more level to help you store less fat...hence the idea of eating to burn calories....go find out exactly what and how you eat.

It might just be the biggest revelation you get all year!
