What You Need To Do To Burn Fat and Not Muscle

By James Steele


There are a few very fascinating ways in which the body reacts to various things when it comes to keeping muscle mass and losing fat. To give an example, there are people out there who believe that getting rid of their daily fat intake is needed, so the only foods they eat contain no fats at all. Suddenly the amount of fat they consume drops.

The problem with doing this is that your body will store fat. Your body will want to conserve every bit of fat that it has, and that is not exactly what we are looking for here. You will find that your body has a natural need for daily fat intake, but just reduce it to sensible levels without being extreme. The following tips will help you to keep muscle and burn fat.

But you do not have to get rid of them entirely from your diet. One additional reason for keeping carbohydrates is that to get all of your calories from fats and protein would be pretty difficult. You will be rather shocked at how much weight you can lose when you simply reduce your intake of carbs. When working out you want to choose something that you feel you can keep on doing. If you're doing something you find is good for you you'll enjoy it more, and that's no secret. It's pointless to do exercises that you really hate, you needn't punish yourself. Additionally, your perception is important as some are much better than others. If you like to keep tabs on things like your performance times then you can look at how well you're doing. You should avoid being too hard on yourself if you're not competing at all. At the end of the day we just feel that you should focus on how you performed and you should feel good about it.

Here's a piece of wisdom that's rather old and has been around for a very long time. But, surprisingly, not everybody knows this, and it will truly make a difference with your eating habits. Ensure you eat at a slow pace and chew all of your food thoroughly. There seems to be some sort of lag, of around 20 minutes, between when you are actually full up and when your brain knows you are.

Therefore if you eat very quickly your stomach and brain won't be in sync, so you will keep eating even if you're physically full. Indigestion can be avoided by simply chewing your food thoroughly. Plus, your saliva contains enzymes, which will have more time to start the process of digestion, before the food reaches the stomach.

Exploring the various methods and tricks when you're wanting to lose fat but not muscle is the best thing to do. Due to there being many different methods that work there's flexibility in the whole process.
