Knowing the difference between long-term and short-term weight loss
Short-term weight loss lasts no longer than a few days and is often due to the elimination of excess water rather than fat. This rapid weight loss can be achieved through low calorie diets. However, you will expose yourself to the risk of rapid weight gain.
However, losing weight over the long term involves a combination of a low calorie diet and exercise.
Learn to understand how your metabolism works
If you know how your metabolism works, you will know how to burn calories efficiently. Metabolism is the process by which your body converts food into energy.
Exercise to lose weight: combining aerobic exercise, discontinuous strength training and weight training
Aerobics can speed up your heartbeat and burn calories. Variants: running, walking, swimming or cycling.
Discontinuous strength training or the art of alternating intense exercise with gentle exercise will allow you to stimulate your metabolism as they require you to consume more oxygen. This type of exercise helps you burn calories even after exercise.
Finally, thanks to weight training, you stimulate your metabolism: by contracting your muscles, you burn many more calories than when they are at rest. In addition, developing your muscle mass has a positive effect on the efficiency of your metabolism.
Vary the nature and amount of exercise to lose weight
Vary the nature and amount of exercise to lose weight
Your body is intelligent: it adapts as soon as a routine sets in. If you always run at the same speed or lift the same weight every day, your weight loss exercises will be less effective. New sets of exercises strain new muscles and break routine.
Make changes in your diet that will boost your metabolism
Fruits and vegetables are rich in fibre and water and prolong the feeling of satiety. Another slimming asset to introduce into your diet: green tea. It is a natural boost for the metabolism. You can drink it and add green tea leaves to your salads, sandwiches or marinades.
Finally, protein helps you consume fewer calories during the day. Eat skim milk, lean cheese, eggs, chicken breast and turkey.
Water helps you lose weight
Drinking 2 litres of water a day fills your stomach and gives you the energy you need for your daily exercise. Cold water helps you burn calories faster.
Go to a sauna!
Losing weight does not necessarily mean suffering. Sweating allows you to eliminate toxins and burn calories effortlessly.
