The 7 Rules to Fat Loss

I would like to share with you the seven rules of fat loss, but before I do I wanted to let you know that we will be starting our Beach Body Promotion in a couple of weeks for only $79.  Are you ready for the summer? More importantly, are you going to be ready to get into a swimming suit or bikini?  If not, be sure to read the newsletter, and I’ll keep you posted on our May Day Challenge coming soon!
If you’re ready to reduce your body fat, you can’t go about it haphazardly. You’ll have to drop the anything-goes attitude and adhere to seven rules that will make your fat-burning attempts a wild success.

What are those rules? You’re about to find out.

Rule #1: Drink Water

Ready to melt away the fat that’s been clinging to your front, back, and sides since you can remember? Then you’ll need to drink water. A lot of it. Every time you feel the urge to drink something, make it water. Not juice. Not milk. And definitely not beer. They add sugars and calories to your daily intake, which will do nothing but make it harder to get rid of your fat stores. Drinking water also helps you avoid eating when you’re not hungry, feel better, and doesn’t slow you down when it’s time to exercise. 

Rule #2: Protein First

Burning fat requires you to eat differently. That means no more eating whatever you want whenever you want. One of the best things you can eat to get rid of fat is protein. Whether chicken, turkey, eggs, low-fat cottage cheese, beef, or whey protein powder, protein at every meal gives you energy you can use for whatever tasks come your way. Remember, where is my protein first… then fat, then carbohydrates.

Rule #3: Change Your Workouts 

There are lots of exercises that help you burn fat. Actually, just about any routine you do will help. And that’s why you should do them all. Prefer metabolic resistance training (MRT)? Fantastic! Just be sure to switch is up with resistance training, strength training, and stretching here and there. That’s why we focus on a different training modality every month.  This will help your body work differently and therefore find new ways to get rid of unwanted fat.

Rule #4: Build Muscle

One of the most successful long-term plans to get rid of fat is to add muscle to your body. The best way to do this is by utilizing big, compound movements with free weights. That means plenty of bench press, squats, deadlifts, and shoulder press. Of course, you may not be a weight-lifting expert like us. No problem. Call or email us to get started on an exercise program that’s just right for you.

Rule #5: Eat Less

On the path to less fat, one rule you can’t ignore is to simply eat less food. That’s right—calories matter. Think you can get away with eating all the healthy food you can find and still burn fat? Think again. Your body only needs a certain amount of calories to function. The rest sit around and have the potential to stick around for the long haul—even if they come from fresh fruits and vegetables.

Rule #6: Go to Bed

It seems no matter how many studies come out showing the direct connection between sleep and fat loss, people still ignore their body’s signals to get more sleep. Don’t be one of them. Get to sleep at a decent hour that allows you to get about eight hours every night. You’ll feel better in the morning, avoid midnight snack temptations, and burn more fat during your waking hours.

Rule #7: 90/10 Rule

It’s a good idea to give yourself a break now and then. Otherwise, you may find yourself unable to maintain your fat-burning ways for the long-term. Allow yourself to have a couple of off-plan meals each week. It could be a hamburger with all the fixings, a piece of chocolate cake (my favorite), or just a salad with your favorite fattening dressing. Just remember to keep it to a normal portion size, only do it for 1-3 meals each week, and return back to your healthy eating immediately.

If you are serious about attaining a life-altering body transformation then feel free to reach out to us for assistance. We will be starting our Beach Body Promotion pretty soon, so we’ll keep you posted. We are here to provide you with everything you need to burn the fat and transform your body once and for all!
