FOR THE CRAZY BODYBUILDING/MMA ENTHUSIAST
The reason why most people choose to go on a diet or exercise is not because they are concerned about the amount of unsightly muscle on their body. It is a sad fact that this is the idea that most people bring to losing weight.
As a result, they drop pounds but those pounds come from losing muscle mass, which weighs more than fat. The good news is there are ways to maintain your current muscle mass while still losing weight.
The main mistake that most people make during an attempt at weight loss is to cut back on caloric intake too substantially. This is logical because you gain a pound in weight for every 3,000 calories you consume and don’t burn. Unfortunately, this is the worst tactic you could try if you don’t want to lose muscle.
In primary case there is storage of fat in your body, which is for the need as an energy supply depot in case you suffer from starvation due to short supply of food. That is what it is called when you are not eating enough to sustain your life.
When you stop taking in calories your body would automatically start using up these stockpiles but that’s the case,you might think that. Those are the emergency, last resort rations.
First, your body is going to convert your muscle mass into energy and that’s going to slow your metabolism so you don’t need as many calories in the first place which makes it harder for you to lose weight.
A better plan is to gradually reduce your calorie intake and let your body adjust to the changes. For example, you might reduce your calories by 10% the first week, another 10% the second week, and so on. This prevents your body from going into starvation mode.
You must perform the proper exercises in order to burn fat and not muscle. To focus on cardiovascular workouts, is what most fitness instructors and health advocates are going to tell you. It will help your heart and lungs get stronger so you can do more exercise without getting worn out, so it’s a good way to start.
However, you need to add some weight training to that recipe at least 2 to 3 times a week. That way you’ll be replenishing lost muscle and adding new muscle mass. This is good because muscle requires more calories than fat. If you have a lot of lean muscle mass in your body, your metabolism is going to increase which means you’ll burn off more calories and lose weight.
When adding a little weight training into the routine, improved muscle tone is an added benefit you will notice. When people lose weight and don’t exercise properly, they end up flabby.
While plastic surgery can help with that problem a lot, those procedures are expensive and come with a lot of risk. Exercising while you lose weight is the best way to increase your muscle tone and to prevent loose skin.
Anytime I see Terry Crews in a movie, he’s hilarious. I think I first saw him in a movie dancing and waving these glow-sticks around – I forgot what movie that was, though! Anyone remember? The brother is YOKED. He was a linebacker in the NFL. Anyways, there was talk of an A-Team remake in the works, and that Terry Crews might play BA Baracus! He’d be awesome for it, of course. So I did some reminiscing about Terry Crews, and found this nugget of goodness. Gotta try this workout…
