Weight Loss Tips - 3 Ways to Boost Fat Loss Posted By : andyatlas

1. HIIT - The Best Cardiovascular Exercise
Get off that treadmill and try HIIT or High Intensity Interval Training for a change. Too many people would hop on a cardiovascular machine and do a constant intensity workout for 30 to 90 minutes at a time. Most experts say that fat burn begins after carbohydrate stores are depleted at around 40 minutes, so you are actually wasting a lot of time. Most people do not even have enough time to do very long cardiovascular workouts.
HIIT can be done between 15 and 20 minutes. You do the exercise by alternating low, moderate and high intensities, to maximize fat burn and boost metabolism. HIIT burns fat while you’re doing it, and continues to shed the pounds even while you are at rest, because your metabolism stays up. To begin, do some fast walking for about 1 minute, followed by light jogging for 30 seconds then finally, sprinting for 30 seconds. Go back to light jogging and fast walking in the same time intervals and continue to alternate until you finish 15 to 20 minutes.
2. Eat More Frequently
You actually burn more fat by eating more frequently throughout the day. It is recommended that you consume smaller meals every 2 to 3 hours, instead of downing 2 huge ones. Your metabolism heightens every time your digestive system works. Absorption is also better, so your body tends to store less fat. Try to aim anywhere between 4 to 8 meals each day. You may consider power shakes and snacks as a single meal.
Make sure your meals are also composed of low fat and nutritious foods. Aim for those that come from natural sources. Avoid oily, fried or fatty foods that easily convert into fat. Some types of carbohydrates can also be broken down quickly into fat, so eat these less frequently. Avoid drinking alcohol too and take a nutritional supplement.
3. Do some form of weight training
Weight training is highly effective for both men and women. Lean muscle tissues tend to burn fat continuously even while you are at rest. The great thing about weight training is that it gives you shape and an aesthetic physique. Combine this with cardio and you will surely reach your weight and fitness goals in a few weeks. Try to lift weights 2 to 3 times a week at least.
