The Basics on Dropping Body Fat.

We can't be any more basic than this. Here is a list or must do tips that will help you succeed in dropping body fat.

1. Do not weigh yourself but maybe once a week and right after you wake-up on an empty stomach. At most weigh once a week best would be twice a month. Weighing yourself daily will be hard on you mentally. There will be days that you hold water or constipation can make you appear heavier than you actually are. This will cause stress and that will cause you to hold onto body fat due to adrenal stress.

2. Instead of weighing yourself look at how your cloths fit and your measurements. If you exercise properly and eat a moderately high protein diet you may add muscle weight. That's a good thing because muscle gain will help you burn more calories especially fat. Muscle is 8 times more dense than fat so it is greater in weight with much less volume. You may actually gain overall body weight and wear much smaller cloths.

3. Have your trainer measure your body composition. A good trainer will have the skills to measure your lean body mass vs. your body fat percentage. By doing this that trainer can also establish your Basil Metabolic Rate (BMR), the rate of calories you burn resting in a 24 hour period. This is important to know because this is how you base your demand for calories when designing a custom nutrition program.

4. Simple rule to follow, burn more calories than you eat. This is the only way you will lose weight.

5. Drink allot of water daily. Staying hydrated is crucial when dropping body fat. If you do not have proper levels of water your body will shut the metabolism down.  Most people should drink no less than 80 ounces of water daily while some of us will need in excess of a gallon.

6. Eat a diet that is moderately high in protein. Proteins break down into amino acids and each amino acid has a specific task to perform in the body. Without proper levels of protein the body will become catabolic and start feeding on its own muscle mass to extract the amino acids found within the muscle tissue. When this happens the metabolism starts to shut dowm and you quit burning calories and what weight you do lose is muscle weight not body fat!

7. -Eat frequently, rule of thumb is eat every three hours. This will keep you burning calories all day long and as long as your blood sugar stays within normal ranges it becomes next to impossible to burn muscle and sets up the perfect climate to burn body fat! Another rule is Eat for what you are about to do not for what you've already done. Eat your carbs and a good source of protein before you have any activities especially exercise.

8. Make sure you are getting no less than 6 hours sleep nightly but no more than 9 hours. Rest and recovery is vital for optimal health and keeping the immune system fully functional. By doing this your metabolism will work at peak levels and your fat loss will burn 24 hours a day.

9.Weight training and resistant exercise are the best for fat loss. Most people tend to think cardio exercise is the best way to drop fat, when in fact cardio exercise is the worst way to lose weight. too much cardio will slow the metabolism and help you store body fat. Interval training is optimal for fat loss.

10. Eating properly balanced nutritional meals during the day will help you burn fat. Eating properly is the key to success in any weight loss program.Don't eat enough you will burn muscle and store fat. Eat too much you will store calories, store body fat and shut down your metabolism.
