5 Proven Step to Weight Loss
Many people forget that exercise and weight loss is a science. When certain steps are implemented a result is achieved. So here are 5 proven weight loss methods that you can apply to your daily life to achieve the fat loss that you desire.
1. Walk
Walking for 30 minutes on a daily basis will help boost your metabolism which will help you body burn more calories throughout the day.
2. Drink Enough Water
In order for the body to burn fat it needs to be properly hydrated. If you are chronically dehydrated it physically impacts your body's ability to metabolize fat. Drink your water!
3. 8 hours of Sleep
It's recommended that you get between 7-9 hours of sleep every night. When you get enough quality sleep at night your body can regulate hormones with more precision. Hormone imbalance can cause the body to go into a stressed state and will cause you to gain or maintain the fat you have.
4. Eat Enough Protein
Eating enough protein daily will help maintain or build your muscle mass (if paired with resistance training) while you lose fat. This doesn't mean you will “get bulky”, this means you will have a nice toned body when the fat comes off. Also a body that has more muscle mass also has a high metabolism. Meaning you will become more efficient at burning fat.
5. Portion Control
Portion control or counting macros will keep you eating enough calories that will sustain you while also improving fat loss. There is a fine line with the number of macros and calories you need to eat in order to achieve your weight loss goals. If counting calories isn't your cup of tea then focusing on proper portion sizes will be the best approach for you.
