Three Steps To Weight Loss Success

By Howe Russ


More and more people are getting lost with how to lose weight so in today's article we will cover three basic, simple rules to success with your diet plan. Despite the advances we have made in science, this remains one of the main areas which people experience difficulty with.

The industry itself is largely to blame for the amount of confusion in this area. Due to the fact that there is a lot of money to be made, you'll often see every supplement company or trainer promising easier results if you buy their product or join their client list. As a result, people are always trying to find a quick fix rather than just achieving their goals.

Many of the so-called 'miracle diet plans' revolve around very old principles, so before you spend your hard earned money on one of these it would pay dividends to learn the rules for yourself.
Today's clip on how to lose weight details five extensively researched fat loss tips for you.


We don't have any products to ask you to buy, so what you are going to see in today's post are proven, easy to follow rules which have been validated by years of scientific studies.

If you can make the most of the following few steps you will notice greatly enhanced results.

* You must know where to get your calories from.

* Exercise is your diet's best friend.

* Once you have mastered the art of resisting temptation you will be able to reach your goals far easier.

Most people have no idea how much to eat. In order to consume the right amount of calories per day simply take your goal body weight in pounds and multiply by twelve.

Most people who struggle to get rid of their belly are shocked to discover that they are actually under-eating. Like we said, it's not about how much you eat it's about where you get it from.

The most important step in your diet is splitting your calories between protein, fat and carbohydrates. Despite popular belief, you should never cut one of these nutrients out of your diet and if you do it'll only cause a negative outcome. A great split for your calories is 40% from carbohydrate sources, 20% from fats and 40% from protein rich foods.

Once that is in place it is time to hit the gym or get another form of exercise. The best form of exercise when it comes to cutting size is anything which elevates your heart rate. You don't need to subscribe to the old formula of endless hours on a treadmill, exercise like high intensity interval training is proven to yield better results and do it in a shorted time.

Furthermore, do not be afraid to use weights. This one applies mainly to women, many of whom still subscribe to the old myth that weights will only make you muscular. Think about that for a moment. If it were really true, then every man you saw at the gym would look like Sylvester Stallone! Weights will help you to burn even more calories as well as tone your muscles.

A recent survey showed that people came off the rails of their diet plan the most when they were at their job midway through a tough shift. The combination of the easy access to junk food and the fact that they hadn't prepared any meals usually led them to undo all the good results they had worked hard to achieve thus far. Bear this in mind, protein has far less impact on fat storage than any other nutrient.

Feel free to make up a few protein rich snacks for your day of work. This will help you to stay away from the vending machine and continue getting results even when you're not in the gym.

As you can see, the confusion surrounding how to lose weight easily clears when you look at the proven principles. Most of the fitness industry suffers from this issue, ask anybody how to build muscle at your local gym and you'll get similarly mixed answers. Now that you know these three principles you are well on your way to success.
