HOW TO ACHIEVE FITNESS
To achieve fitness, you must know whats good for your body. most people don't seem to know whats good for their body for natural fat loss and hence lead to their fitness and that which is good for your body for effective fat loss is usually decided by the body type. now lets take a look at the body types.
- fat
- skinny(thin)
- slim
- big
1. cut down intake of foods with high calorific value:cutting down intake of foods such as chocolates and its likes is a good way for fast fat loss. if you always take six pack of candies everyday, you can try and make it three.
2.increasing intake of foods highly rich in protein: by eating foods that are highly proteinous , you set your body on the right path of replacing excess fat with muscle(fat loss). how is it so?because proteins are builders unlike sugars that are fuels, all muscles in the body are made of proteins so if you really want to lose fat and grow muscles, then you should be eating more protein.
*the skinny:these are the set of people with extremely low percentage of body fat. its surprising that some thin people still go jogging regularly and drink lots of coffee and eat lots of cucumber, weight lifting e.t.c. To me, thin people are not supposed to be involved in such activities because
*activities of such make them get more skinny(weight loss) which can be dangerous to their health.
*being skinny exposes the skeleton to more damages when you fall or get bruised.
*being skinny indicates lack of glycogen which helps to keep the body organs in place.
based on these, I'd suggest that skinny people should not be too active in physical activities that lead to fat loss.
*the slim:these are the people that have both fat and muscle in the right proportions. the slim people are always seen as sexy and they need a little more exercise than the skinny. but being skinny also has its own challenges because a slim person is on the borderline of fat and thin which makes it very difficult and challenging to maintain their shape(avoid fat loss and fat gain at the same time). below are a few tips to help the slim people maintain their shape
*15hrs of exercise weekly
*a little limit on sugar consumption.
*drink lots of water.
*the big:these are the group of people that have both fat and muscle in high percentage although with fat a little bit higher than muscle. the big guys like myself are considered as having the best body shape for attracting the opposite sex. however being big to me is not attractive until you subject your body to extreme workout programs to reduce the body fat % and thereby increase the muscle. the following can be done to achieve fat loss.
*regular exercise:this can range from from push ups to jogging, sit ups, weight lifting, fat loss workouts e.t.c
*eat more protein than carbohydrate.to do this, you have to use the minus plus method below. 'before' is used to show former eating habits and 'now' for what you should do.
Before: 4packs of chocolate_3packs of sweets_6packs of cake_3plates of rice_1cup of soya milk_2packs of cheese_1cup of coffee_1plate of corn flakes
now:2packs of chocolate_1pack of sweets_3pack of cakes_1 plate of rice_3 cups of soya milk_4packs of cheese_4cups of coffee_3plates of cornflakes.
NOTE:this is just an example and not a diet plan.
*Drink lots of water and always eat a good diet.
