27 Fitness and Fat Loss Tips
It's New Year's Day, and you have a clean slate.
I don't know if you are one to make New Year's Resolutions or not, but either way you're probably thinking about how you can become fitter, healthier and happier than you are right now.
These 27 Fitness and Fat Loss Tips will get you on the right track for this New Year:
- Visualize the accomplishment of your goals each and every day. Experience the taste of success and feel that sweet satisfaction.
- Push the intensity of your workouts. Don't kill time, burn calories by maintaining a challenging intensity.
- Use smaller plates at home. This effortlessly reduces calorie intake and promotes weight loss.
- Build accountability into your workouts so that you resist the temptation to take days off. The best way to ensure accountability is to work with a personal trainer either one-on-one or in a group training setting.
- Believe in yourself. Know with conviction that you CAN accomplish your goals.
- Drink water throughout your day. Do this by carrying a water bottle and opting for water rather than calorie-filled beverages. This simple action is extremely beneficial.
- Maintain your metabolism by eating a healthy snack or meal every three hours. This food should be unprocessed, low in fat and high in fiber.
- Don't be afraid to ask for help.
- Incorporate High Intensity Interval Training into your cardio workouts by performing bursts of high intensity rather than exercising at a single steady pace.
- It's not about will-power, it's about want-power. You have to want it.
Your Fast-Track to a Flat Tummy and Tight Abs
Written by Xtreme Advantage Personal Fitness
The New Year is still young, and if you've decided to make this your year for losing the weight and tightening your abs, you're in luck.
Getting a flat midsection really boils down to two things: 1) Getting rid of the fatty layer that is covering your abdominal muscles; and 2) Tightening and toning your abdominal muscles.
The following 7 Tight Abs Tips are your Fast-Track ticket to getting a flat, attractive midsection this year.
Tight Abs Tip #1: Stop eating junk. Processed foods, refined sugar and high fructose corn syrup do NOT belong in your diet if, especially if you want tight abs. Cutting these items from your diet will allow your body to maintain stable blood sugar levels, alleviating your body's need to store excess sugar away in fat cells.
The fat stores created by excess sugar intake most often accumulate around your waist, covering up your abdominal muscles. Cut these items from your diet and replace them with real whole foods such as lean meats, vegetables, whole grains, nuts and fruits.
