” Start today and add a healthy habit to your life every day – an extra glass of water, an apple a day, extra serving of vegetables, replace processed snacks with an ounce of raw nuts, drink Green Tea instead of soda, get up on time instead of hitting snooze, plan ahead instead of winging it, & set goals instead of daydreaming.”

Welcome to Fat Burning Diets And Workouts

Imagine taking a look in your mirror in 4 weeks from now and seeing 6-8 pounds of fat gone. Here at Fat Burning Diets and Fat Burning Workouts that is what we are going to show you, and how YOU can do it too. If you are committed and persistant you can realistically and in a healthy way burn fat at a rate of  1-2 pounds a week.

Remember we are going for fat loss not weight loss (there is a difference). What I won’t weigh less? Actually you may weigh more. Why? because to burn the most amount of bodyfat in the shortest amount of time you need to raise your metabolism. How do you do that? Gain lean muscle.

Muscle burns more calories than fat — even while at rest — the more muscle you have, the higher your resting metabolic rate, which means the more calories your body will be burning just to sustain you.

Forget about your scale the true measure is what your mirror tells you.

Our aim is to get you eating healthy ( don’t panic ) it’s a matter of commitment and desire. Doing short fat burning workouts (forget the marathon cardio/aerobic workouts).

I  read a very interesting article recently and wanted to pass it on to you.  In this study, a group of hospital employees were asked to make one small change in their daily
routine.

At the end of 12 weeks, here were the results:

1. body fat decreased 2%
2. waistline measurement decreased 2%
3. lung capacity increased 9%
4. diastolic blood pressure decreased 2%
5. LDL cholesterol decreased 4%

Pretty impressive considering these were only the “average” of all the results.  So what was the magic protocol here?  The ONLY thing these individuals did differently was to take the stairs instead of the elevator each day. 

Just goes to show you the power of that one simple choice can make.

What we want to bring you is a one stop resource for all your healthy eating fat burning diets, fat burning exercises, fat burning workouts,  muscle building and health related information.

Fat Burning Diets

First off I hate the word diet. Why? Because when people here the word diet they panic. Starvation, sacrifice and never eating any of your favorite foods again is the first thing most people think about. That doesn’t need to be the case. But you do need to remember something.

” You Can’t Out Train A Lousy Diet “

If you think you can continue to eat the way you have been and expect to do any amount of fat burning by doing extra workouts I’m  afraid you are sadly mistaken. So let’s just start thinking healthy eating.
 
I’ll let you in on a secret I love peanut M&M’s do I ever eat them? Yes, I do believe in rewarding myself once in a while. But you must first have that basic foundation of healthy eating.

Never discount not only for fat loss but the overall health benefits of eating healthy. You have heard it all about having excess bodyfat and it’s affects on your heart, blood pressure etc.

A quick story for you a close friend of mine recently went through a very painfull bout with ovarian cysts. After doing some research for her what I found out is one of the best ways to prevent and cure her condition? Is there a natural remedy for ovarian cysts? Yeah you guessed it eat more fiber, increase your water intake and vitamins.

The fact of it all is when it comes to losing fat it all starts with eating healthy.

Fat Burning Workouts

Okay so how many hours a week do you spend on a treadmill, in a aerobics class or paying a personal trainer? I am just going to guess and say too many. No I am not a personal trainer I could be so can you. Enough said. ( Not that they are all bad because they’re not).

For our fat burning workouts (or for that matter building muscle) purpose longer is not better. Shorter workouts, using maximum intensity and total body fat burning exercises is proven to be the fast track to fat loss.

What Kind Of Workouts Do We Use? I believe in using variety. You can see from the list below I don’t keep to only one system. As a matter of fact I often use 2 or 3 in one workout.

***Interval Training

*** Circuit Training

*** Weight Training

*** Kettlebells

*** Bodyweight Exercises

The Kettlebell Training Page

Who would have thought that a piece of iron that looks like a bowling ball with handle could become such a fat burning boon? Before I started using kettlebells about 2 plus years ago I would have thought it was just another gimmick.

But you can’t argue with the results that accompany regular kettlebell workouts. In fact the kettlebell swing and snatch may just be 2 of the very best fat burning exercises there are. And the cardio conditioning from using bells is hard to beat.

” Kettlebells are the newest, edgiest, most effective fat loss workout you can find. The American Council on Exercise just conducted a study proving that kettlebell workouts burn 20.2 calories per minute – double what spinning or bodyweight boot camps burn. If you want to lose weight and burn stubborn fat, there’s nothing more effective than kettlebell workouts. ”

So if we get rid of the excess fat by only dieting that doesn’t really give a very appealing physique does it? Picture a distance runner.

So What to do? Add some lean muscle. Weight training compound exercises short intense workouts. Oh ladies this is for you to.

Visualization, Motivation And Goal Setting

 ” Instead of giving myself reasons why I can’t, I give myself reasons why I can “

Setting one or more goals seems to be a straightforward process. You establish a specific goal, one that’s measurable and has a defined timeframe for completion. You implement your plan, measure your progress towards reaching your goal and then evaluate the outcome objectively to refine your process.

On the surface of things, it reads well and sounds easy enough to do. Unfortunately, it rarely works out that way for numerous reasons; primarily because we often fail to establish realistic goals. Additionally, we often casually set goals with only a hazy view towards how they’ll actually be accomplished. And while we’re typically motivated at the beginning of the process, it’s not at all unusual to lose our motivation somewhere along the way.
