3 LAWS OF FAT BURNING - FAST PROTEIN EXPERT ADVICE
by Fast Protein
There are three essential laws if you will—that is all you need to shed that unwanted pounds from your midsection. Most of them are nutrition-driven, but training comes into play as well. These 3 laws of fat-burning combined with living a healthy lifestyle will help get you there.
1. Reduce your calories
To between 10 calorie per pound of body weight per day on workout days, or 2000 caloriesdaily. On non-workout days, drop to about 9caloriesper pound per day (1800 caloriesfor the guy who's 200lbs). The easiest way to cutcalories? Don't snack and eliminate excess dietary fat—meaning no butter, oils, orsaladdressings (low-fator fat-free dressings are OK); remove the skin fromchicken; substituteeggwhites for most of your wholeeggs; avoid whole-milkdairyproducts, etc Keep somehealthyfats in your diets, such as salmon, , avocados, extra virgin olive oil, and nuts. And not all nuts are created equal. Some have more carbs than others. We recommend almonds, pistachios, brazil nuts and to a lesser extent walnut. Avoid cashews and peanuts.
2. Avoid Carbohydrates when possible
Thoughcaloriecontrol is a must, hormonal control is nearly as important. Coupled withcalories, hormones govern fat-burning. Suppress fat-storing hormones and you can expect a significant amount ofbodyfatto melt away. The ideal way to control these hormones is to keep your carbohydrate intake in check sincecarbskick up insulin, a hormone that inhibits the fatbreakdown and drivesfatstorage. Eat fewercarbsand insulin levels tend to moderate, leading tofatloss. Of course, not all carbohydrates are equal. In short, fast-digestingcarbstend to create a large insulin burst, leading to more potentialfatgain. Thesecarbsinclude white bread, most cold cereals, any sweets,ricecakes,white rice, and white potatoes. Conversely, slow-digestingcarbs such as oatmeal, whole grains, and legumes don't cause much of an insulin rise, so these shouldmake upthe vast majority of yourcarbconsumption. The common sense approach is to halve your carbohydrate portions to control your insulin control. The less carb, the better.
3. Avoid Sugar when possible
We don't need to talk too much about this. Everyone know sugary soda, high corn syrup drinks, and fruit juices with added sugar are to be taken in moderation if not eliminated all together. Sugar is not your friend. Treat it as such. Read the nutritional label and ingredient list for percentage of sugar content. If you’re looking for rough guidelines, here is how much sugar you could have per day according to the American Heart Association: Women: 100 calories/day (about six teaspoons, or 25 g); Men: 150 calories/day (about nine teaspoons, or 36 g)
