Make You Body Hotter For 2008! A Step By Step Plan to Developing a Hotter and Healthier Body By K. McCarthy 1: Change your Overall Lifestyle Don’t necessarily go on a “program” or “diet”. When you start a program, it implies that it has to end at some point. If you want to lose body-fat and be healthy for the rest of your life, make changes that you can could stick to indefinitely. 2: Reduce Starchy Carbs Consuming too many starchy foods like potatoes, pasta, and rice, especially in large portions, provides your body with more energy than it immediately needs. This energy supply creates a surplus with the leftovers being stored as body-fat. Limit servings to 1 cup, and no more than 2 – 3 times per day. 3: Always Eat Breakfast When you wake up, your body is starving for fuel, especially complex carbs and protein. This meal will impact your performance, your energy, and your appetite throughout the day. Eating about 30 grams of protein and 40 – 75 grams of carbs in the morning will get your day off to a good start. Protein sources can be hard to muster up for breakfast unless you have time for eggs or bacon. Try a Whey Protein if you’re stuck without a whole food protein source. New juice flavoured Whey Proteins are great for breakfast. 4: Limit Sugar Intake Taking in simple carbs after an intense weight workout helps to replenish your muscle and liver glycogen stores. However, excess sugar throughout the day will be readily stored as body-fat (and cause tooth decay). Replace sugary drinks with the most important nutrient, water. It will help to transport body-fat to be burned off as energy, and it makes you feel more full resulting in less junk-food cravings. 5: Eat 5 – 6 Meals a Day Most overweight people tend to eat 1 – 2 large meals per day. This is a huge mistake. By increasing the frequency of meals and decreasing their size, you will create an internal furnace in your body called thermogenisis, which will help you burn more calories just by the sheer act of eating. 6: Take CLA and Chromium CLA has been shown in many studies to burn body-fat and help build muscle. The results may be modest, but for those looking for a nonstimulant based fat burner, this is the supplement of choice. Chromium should also be taken daily. It works with insulin to support healthy blood glucose levels and plays an important role in the proper utilization of proteins, fats and carbohydrates. Chromium helps insulin metabolize fat, turn protein into muscle and convert sugar into energy resulting in less fat storage. 7: Increase Vegetable Consumption Vegetables are packed with nutrients, and help provide a huge health value with few calories. Their fiber content also helps to make you full, with less room to fill up on unhealthier foods. If veggies are an inconvenience, a Greens supplement can give you a days serving of these invaluable nutrients. 8: Don’t Over-Use Fat Burners Fat burners can be highly effective, give you some energy, and create small increase in fat burn, however they will not counteract poor eating habits. If you continue to under exercise and inconsistently eat well, these supplements will not be the answer you’re looking for. 9: Eat Healthy Fats Regularly Essential Fatty Acids (EFA) like those found in Flax Seed Oil and Fish Oil help control blood sugar levels, leaving you more satisfied from your meals. They also maintain your joints and ligaments, and keeps your skin healthy and looking younger. 10: Follow This Strict Plan...80% of the time A great body is the result of consistently exercising and eating strictly most of the time, not all the time. You can stay lean, feel great, and even improve your appearance by looking at the big picture, enjoying life, and staying motivated. < Back to Info Centre .
