1. START WITH A SHAKE
Fueling your body first thing in the morning is important
if you want to jump-start your metabolic engine every day. Because you've
essentially been fasting overnight, a powerful morning shake will also help
replenish your energy and repair your muscles.
At those times, turns to high-protein, healthy chocolate mocha. It's a shake is more balanced than what many people traditionally eat for breakfast. Not to mention, it's loaded with slow-burning carbohydrates and caffeine to fuel your body all day long. For those on-the-go early risers, it comes with an added benefit: It only has a few ingredients, so it's easy to make.
Drinking coffee in the morning before a meal can help you burn fat during exercise for because of its caffeine content.
2. SLASH YOUR SUGAR INTAKE
One of the best ways to ramp up slow weight loss is to
slash your sugar intake. Sugar is detrimental when trying to lean down; it
spikes blood glucose levels, which then quickly spike insulin levels and
encourage fat storage.
Try having no refined sugars for 30 days. Instead, stick to natural sugar from fruits. A serving
of berries will give you plenty of antioxidants and nutrients while satisfying
that craving for something sweet.
Ditch sodas and other artificially
sweetened drinks. Switch to fruit-infused water for flavor instead of
sweet drinks.
Or grab some unsweetened green tea. Green tea has
extra fat-burning benefits that will help you see even better results.
3. SPICE IT UP
One sneaky trick by is adding a little cayenne pepper to meals. It gives an extra fat-burning kick.
Research supports this practice. Cayenne pepper contains a compound called capsaicin, which may temporarily elevate your metabolic rate for a few hours after eating it. If you've ever noticed you feel warmer after eating a spicy meal prepared with cayenne or chili pepper, then you know how powerful turning up the heat can be.
4. ELIMINATE PROBLEMATIC FOODS
For some people, gluten and dairy are problematic foods
that may hinder their weight-loss results. Temporarily eliminating or cutting
back on these foods could be just what you need to kick fat to the curb.
Cut
both gluten and dairy, but
sometimes just making a change like this can help you break through a
plateau.
For a couple of weeks, try cutting out foods you suspect
might be hampering your success. If they cause issues when you reintroduce them
down the line, it could be an indicator that they shouldn't be a part of your
regular meal plan.
5. GET JUICING
Juicing vegetables!. It helps you get more servings of nutrient-rich
vegetables in your diet every day. Also notes that juicing does
wonders for her skin and nails.
You can make juice from this recipe: blended kale, spinach, celery,
cucumber, lemon, cayenne, and ginger. For added sweetness, adds half a
green apple or some berries. Try this green shake on a day when getting enough
through whole food feels like a challenge. It will fill you up with
nutrient-rich foods and keep you on track to your fat-loss goals!
6. HIIT THE OUTDOORS
When it comes to fat-burning cardio, high-intensity
interval training (HIIT) is tough to beat. By alternating periods of
high-intensity cardio such as sprinting, with periods of lower-intensity cardio
like walking, you can burn more calories overall in less time because of a
powerful after-burn effect known as excess post-exercise oxygen consumption, or
EPOC.
Luckily, you don't have to sprint on the treadmill or only
train indoors to shed weight. Take your workout outside and get some
fresh air. An added boost of sunlight does wonders
for your mood and motivation.
When you're happy and motivated,
you'll be far more likely to stay on track with your fitness program and see
the results you're striving for. A quick HIIT workout is a great way to
switch things up from a boring winter routine at the gym. Plus, HIIT workouts are quick. You'll get just enough natural sunlight to
meet your daily dose of vitamin D.
If you want to try a beginner's HIIT workout, sprint
all-out for 10 seconds, walk for 50 seconds, and repeat for a total of 10-15
minutes. You can sprint on the street, grass, or track—or, for a real
challenge, head to the hills for uphill sprints.
To keep yourself interested when performing steady-state
cardio, I'm suggests swimming laps or going for a bike ride with a friend.
Whatever you can do to keep yourself interested in fitness will ultimately help
you succeed.
7. TURN AMINOS INTO A FROZEN TREAT
Need a cold treat on a hot day? Don't turn to calorie- and
sugar-laden ice cream.
This treat contains hardly any calories, so it's a much
smarter alternative to the high-sugar Popsicles or ice cream bars you might be
tempted to choose. Plus, the added amino acids help aid in quick post-workout
recovery.
8. TRACK YOUR REST TIME
Another way to crank up the fat-burning dial is to
minimize the amount of time you rest between sets. Use an interval timer
or your phone's timer to ensure you are only taking the minimum rest. This will ramp up your intensity and help you burn extra
calories both during and after every workout.
Aim for 30 seconds of rest between sets. This will keep
your overall training intensity high while enabling you to maintain strength
and proper form on subsequent exercises.
9. DIG INTO A GIANT SALAD
One of the best ways to fuel your body without sacrificing
a day's worth of calories is with a fully loaded salad. However, some people
don't find salads very satisfying as a main meal, so this a trick:
Make a huge salad and aim to have a serving before
each meal, finishing the whole salad by the end of the day. This helps you get in extra vegetables and fills you up with plenty of
nutrients and vitamins so you aren't as hungry while you're trying to lean
out.
Get creative and add as much variety to salads as possible. Do a Greek salad
with cucumbers, olives, and tomatoes over a spring mix, as well as a summer
salad with romaine lettuce, strawberries, blueberries, and almonds. I'll also do an Italian salad to mix it up using arugula, roasted
bell pepper, red onion, and sun-dried tomatoes.
