Secret Tips To Reduce Body Fat

Having too much body fat can be dangerous to your health, it makes you more prone to serious health problems such as heart attack or stroke.

Here are four secrets tips that can help you not only to lose body fat but also create an attractive physique.

Secret Tip 1: Perform High-Intensity Interval Training

The great thing about high-intensity interval training is "efficiency". Because you are working harder, the signal to your body to change is more rigorous. Your body not only burns fat faster when you increase intensity but you can also cut time. So if you do cardio, speed up the pace for about 20% compared to the normal cardio levels. For example, if you walk then pick up the pace and walk faster. The key is to shift to a slightly higher gear. Your workout will go faster and you will get more results.

Secret Tip 2: Perform Resistance Training

Your body will burn off more fat if you perform some light resistance training before you do any cardio. This occurs because your body does not actually burn fat for the first portion of your exercise, so it is better to allow your body to warm up to lose body fat. Elevate your heart rate by doing some light training, then go forward with the whole routine.

Secret Tip 3: Eat low carbs diet and plenty of vegetables and fruits during the day

Eating low carbs meals during the day (before you do your workout routine) will help your body to burn fat more effectively. Remember that if your body has too much carbs, it will burn the carbs instead of fat during your workout. In addition, make sure you eat lots of fruits and vegetables, they simply the better fat burners.

Secret Tip 4: Drink plenty of Water

Drink plenty of water each day (at least 8-10 glasses a day). This is common sense but you will be surprised that there are many people who are not doing this. So it's worth repeating. Consuming a lot of water actually makes it harder for the fat to stick to your body, allowing you to shed off some extra pounds. Water also helps to flush out harmful toxins from your body, creating a better body system with which to fight off body fat. Water also raises your energy level, if you drink enough of it, and can improve your concentration.

These four tips are just some of the ways you can lose body fat and create a more healthier body. As you continue to exercise, drink plenty of water and watch your diet, you will start to feel healthier and will have no difficulty in keeping the fat off your body.
