Assessing Your Fat Loss Progress

Saturday, October 17th, 2009

Copyright (c) 2009 Athleticbodysystem

In order to make progress you have to start somewhere. There is no point starting if you haven’t got a record of where you started.

Any body transformation DOES NOT just happen before your eyes and as a result many trainees become disheartened because they cannot ‘SEE’ any changes. Okay maybe there are no apparent changes other that a pound or two less on the scales. But wait. . if you had a picture or a measurement of the old you it would enable you to REALLY see the changes no matter how small.

In Order for ‘Before and After’ photos to be successful and accurate tools they must be repeatable! By that I mean don’t compare yourself when you were wearing a coat and you were up a tree or something. Take some DELIBERATE photos. Initial/Progress pictures must be taken in the same place, same room, same day, same time and of course wearing the same clothes. You must ensure you ate and drank similar amounts too! EVERYTHING must be the same! I know it may seem like a chore but mark my words these photos will be an invaluable resource later on for measuring your progress and they are also a great motivational tool!

Take the following pictures:

1) From the front, arms by your side not some stupid most muscular pose!

2) From the side, arms scissored i.e. one in front one behind.

3) From the back, again no double bicep back pose, nobody cares.

Wear something revealing! (yes it must show off all the unsightly bits BE RUTHLESS)

Make sure:

1) The lighting is the same and repeatable.

2) The same camera is used.

3) The clothes are sitting in the same place! (waist of shorts/bikini same distance from bellybutton on both occasions)

Another practical and motivating tool is girth measurements. i.e. measuring the circumference of a limb/waist/hips/chest. They are great because they give the user number that they can use and work on! Weight is your entire body; girth measurements get a little more personal and will inspire people to strive for more desirable measurements.

‘But won’t I get larger measurements if I’m lifting weights and I put on muscle?’

No, contrary to popular belief muscle does not just appear in a matter of days or even weeks! And trust me if you are training hard you will lose fat A LOT faster than you will gain muscle.

Girth measurements will measure the entire limb and associated increases or decreases in mass can be easily seen! For people above around 15% they are probably a lot better but they are useful for everybody.

Skin Folds can also be a very good tool and are my preferred measurement tool with any of my clients that are of suitably low bodyfat percentages. Skinfolds are reasonably accurate for calculating your percentage bodyfat but the folds themselves are actually the most valuable readings. The tell you a lot about the specific area without calculating the actual percentage. Skinfolds measure the skin plus the underlying fat tissue of 7 sites and then through calculations that consider age and sex, reveal your bodyfat %. This reading is not entirely accurate but it is repeatable! The main hang up i have about skinfolds is that you can’t take your own measurments, you need a calipers and the same person has to take the readings each time to ensure repeatability. Skinfold measurement is a skill and requires 1000’s of practice runs to become fluent with the callipers. If you have access to an experienced trainer that will do a skinfold on you. GO FOR IT! If not, use the above tools and you’ll do fine.

Tried Every Technique to Lose Your Stubborn Belly Fat?

Friday, October 16th, 2009

No matter what you do the belly fat still hangs over your pants. We see all these wonderful commercials on T.V & on the radio about “How To Lose Your Belly Fat” in one day using their fantastic diet pill. Change the channel on the T.V. to see muscular men & women claiming that when they used the new improved “ab-belt”, “belly fat remover”, “ab-rocker thingy” they all lost that unsightly stomach fat in a matter of days, not weeks.

Believe me ladies & gentlemen these types of products do not work overnight as they are advertised. The only way to your going to lose that ugly belly fat is to follow a regime of healthy food & exercise.

To be able to reduce the fat from your stomach, you need to stop doing so many different types of abdominal exercises.

The truth is, losing belly fat does NOT occur by doing exercises that target the stomach area only. A certain amount of abdominals exercises are great and they help you strengthen your core and help you in maintaining a healthy back. The fact is that direct abs exercises should only be a small portion of your workout routines.

To get rid of that belly fat, you need to concentrate on exercising your big multi-joint areas & work on the largest muscles, such as the legs, back & chest. Targeting these big muscle areas will greatly increase your metabolic rate, which in turn helps to stimulate an increase of fat burning hormones within the body.

It is also very important to eat a well balanced diet with lots of healthy carbohydrates, proteins and fats.

One fitness program I have been using is by a well renowned Certified Nutrition Specialist and Certified Personal Trainer by the name of Mike Geary.

Mike has developed a training program to help reduce that ugly belly fat & keep it off for good.

Discover how to lose that stubborn stomach fat & release those six pack abs.

How to Burn Fat or Lose Weight Effectively

Thursday, October 15th, 2009

The first step to burning fat is eating the right foods. There are known foods that will aid in boosting one’s metabolism. A few examples of fat melting foods are beans, low-fat dairy products, oatmeal, and many more! These are only a couple of the many nutritious food choices out there.You need to find what functions the best for you, whatever that may be.

Next you need to go on a strict diet. Eliminate white carbohydrates and go for whole wheat and whole grain products. These are richer in fiber and will also help to clean your colon. Another thing you will want to do if you want to lose 20 pounds in 30 days is to reduce your sugar intake. Yes you may need a little for your source of energy but not too much. Too much sugar will increase the blood sugar level and slow down your fat burning process.

You need to do things differently if you want to lose weight and rid your body of dangerous chemicals. A fat burning body wrap will help you remove toxins from your body while burning inches from your waist. This action will help your body metabolize fat thus allowing you to lose weight faster.

I remember years ago reading about the dangers of hydrogenated fats in our foods. If you looked into any book store, under the health section, dozens of nutrition books screamed out those warnings, while the general public blindly ate themselves to death. It took years before the dangers of those trans-fats entered the main media stream and thus into general public awareness.

Drink a lot of water and eat natural foods. Try to eat as many foods that’s not been processed as you can, and eat more fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Add some more water to that and you will already have improved your diet a lot. If you want to improve even more, there are many good books on diet and nutrition you can read that will help you find what’s good for you

The answer is simple! There is no quick or fast solution, only steady fat loss. Since you will need to lose body fat all over the body, and that in turn will also burn fat around the stomach, your best exercise plan is to work the biggest muscles in your body, that will need the most energy (calories) to work. So the best muscles to work out in order to lose stomach fat is actually your legs, arms, and chest, as well as your back… because these are the biggest muscles and increase your metabolism when stimulated.

That’s why tracking your workouts and nutrition is so important, especially for beginners and for folks who want advanced results (such as Body Transformation Contest winners). Once you know what works for you, it becomes almost impossible for you to gain the weight back. So get testing and tracking.

When you are trying to find a solution to the question “how to lose inner thigh fat”, it will be better for you to consider fat loss of your whole body. You can take a calorie shifting diet to help you to do so. A lot of people lose 9 pounds successfully in 11 days with such kind of dieting plan. This kind of dieting plan can help to increase your metabolism. This means that you can burn the fats on your body faster. And this will of course help you to get rid of your inner thigh fats.

how do you get rid of the chest fat fast?

Thursday, October 15th, 2009

my body is fine, the only thing is there is chest on my fat, sort of look like man’s boo*b, yeh, how do you lose them?

Same way you lose any fat anywhere on your body, diet and exercise. You CANNOT spot remove fat. The one only way to lose fat is to create a deficit in your calorie usage vs. intake. Run, jog, swim, bike, etc., do whatever you want, but cardio is your answer.

do i hav to be consistent with pushups for burning chest fat?

Monday, October 12th, 2009

For example, can i do 10 pushups every 5 min.?

or do i hav to do them continuosly for burning chest fat?

it doesn’t really matter whether you do as many pushups as you can in one shot or do them in different sets. The important thing to remember with pushups and burning chest fat is that you must steadily increase the amount of pushups you can do. Chart your progress from day to day on paper so you can see how much progress you make overtime and how much more progress is left. Also, don’t stick to doing the same kind of push up exercise every time. Your body will respond to the consistency and not get stronger. To avoid this, you have to keep your body guessing by always switching up the kind of push up exercise you do. For example, on Monday you could do 3 sets of 10 pushups each while on Wednesday you could do 2 sets and on friday you do as many pushups as you possibly can in one set. Last thing is make sure to give yourself a day’s rest between the pushups. You need to give your body enough time to rest so that it can get stronger the next time you do pushups.

How can i lose fat in my chest and chin?

Sunday, October 11th, 2009

Im 17 years old ive been lifting weights for 5 years but i cant lose fat (i dont care about weight) i really would like to lose all of my chin and chest fat. i have been running and ive cut my diet in half but i need some help is there anything i can do to lose fat faster.

You have to change your diet, and eat less fat. I recommend the Abs Diet. Go to your local library and get it. You cant cut fat if you eat alot of fat.

If you want supplements, you might need something like Hydroxycut. Its a fat burner. Make sure its EPHEDRA free, because Ephedra can cause heart attacks.
