Building Muscle Tips – Find Your Lean Body Today
How do you strip the fat from your body to reveal your muscles?
Next time you go to the mall or shopping, take a look at the people around you. Look at their physiques, the people at your work, the people next to you on the bus/train, the people at the drug store and the local fast food joint. What is the average body type these days? Do people look like Rambo? or do they look like the fatties on Wall-E? Well, unless you train hard like Rambo, or physical exercise is part of your communities lifestyle, the standard then you’ll see is to be overweight.
So how do you get over this tendency of our bodies to put on this extra weight? Well, it’s because we’ve got it so good that we no longer need to exercise so much! That’s kinda cool, but it’s not helping our health or appearance. So How do we do it without supplements and surgery?
Building Muscle Tips #4 How To Strip That Fat and Reveal Your Lean Toned Muscles
So You’re ready to strip that fat? OK, here’s how it’s done:
Strip That Fat Step 1. Start a weight lifting program. Don’t worry, you won’t turn into a bodybuilder over night. You’d have to eat like a bodybuilder if you want to gain the massive amount’s of muscle those guys posess. Muscles burn twice as much energy in your body as fat cells do, so they’re a great advantage to burning fat. Lift weights 2-3 times a week and you’ll start noticing your metabolism speeding up. You’ll start to eat more because you’re hungry. This is good! You’re gonna need this muscle to help your metabolism kick into overdrive!
Step 2. Don’t do aerobic exercise. Yep, you heard me DON’T do it. You’ve got to be mad right? Everyone says do aerobic exercise so you’ll burn fat, so it must be true. Nope. Well, it is, sort of. But it’s not the most effective way so lets get to it.
So How Do We Train? What we’ve got to do is speed up the body’s metabolism so it burns more fat, and faster, like stoking a furnace! We can do this by doing short (15 minute) but intense workouts. It’s just like going for a long jog, but it takes less time. That’s convenient isn’t it!
Here’s the training cycle:
It’s divided into 2 parts. One intense, and the other less intense.
Here’s an example of an interval training session:
# Stretch
# 5 min warmup
# 1 min walk/jog
# 20 second sprint
# 1 min walk/jog
# 20 second sprint
# 1 min walk/jog
# 20 second sprint
# 1 min walk/jog
# 20 second sprint
# 1 min walk/jog
# 20 second sprint
# 1 min walk/jog
# 20 second sprint
# 1 min walk/jog
# 20 second sprint
# 1 min walk/jog
# 20 second sprint
# 5 min cooldown
# Stretches
The great thing about this kind of workout is that you’ll speed up your body so much that you’ll be burning excess energy for ages! And it takes only 15 minutes! It’s honestly the BEST way to strip that fat from your body quickly. Bodybuilders have known this for ages.
If you’re already training 3 days a week, do this cardio training on your OFF days only. The reason why is because your body simply does not know how to burn fat and build muscle at the same time. Alternate between the 2 so you can get the best of both worlds. And remember, take a day off. Nothing worse than burn out when you’re doing so well.
Is that it? Nope one last thing:
Building Muscle Tips – Step 3. Eat Your Vegetables!
I’m not going to discuss all the benefits of eating fresh food, and reading food labels. But this stuff is important so let’s just be serious for a second. If you want to burn more fat it’s not going to happen eating McDonnalds and KFC. You know it’s true. So eat fresh foods. That’s right, your best option is to eat food that’s got heaps of nutritional value and helps get your metabolism going. That food is fresh Fruit and vegetables.
Yeah, I know, what a drag. Your mama always told you to eat your vegies. Turns out she was right eh. Well, I won’t tell her if you don’t!
Honestly though, eat your vegies, and eat them raw if you can. Keep your protein intake high so your body can repair itself. Snack on RAW nuts (not the salty ones!) and protein snacks / shakes. And get your energy mostly from fruits and vegetables. You’ll find that you need to work a little harder to eat them but stick with it, the results will be worth it.
As you change yourworkouts and lifestyle, and work out with heavier lifting sessions, your body will change too. So…
1. Work out with weights
2. Do Interval Training to burn fat
3. Eat Plenty of Fresh Fruit and Vegetables
Your body will thank you for it!
