How do I lose weight?
Losing weight is not a mysterious process. It is burning more calories than you eat. However, if it were really that simple, none of us would have a weight problem. The real secret to weight loss is this: make small changes every day and you will slowly lose those unwanted pounds. Forget about quick results.
Diets that severely cut calories might work in the short term. Once you meet your weight loss goal, the pounds quickly come back. Eat sensibly and combine this with 45-60 minutes of an exercise program 3-4 days per week.
Is diet less important than exercise?
Diet is more important than exercise. Diet contributes about 75% towards your weight loss or fitness goal. Not enough fuel and nutrition will result in little or no progress. On the other hand, too much food or an unbalance diet will neutralize any results from your exercise program.
How do I reduce the size of my gut?
Diet along with your genetics play important parts in determining where the body stores fat. Spot reduction never works despite what infomercials show you. Unfortunately, we cannot pick and choose which parts go first. Follow my recommendation above for losing weight.
Should I exercise every day?
No. I rarely endorse training more than five days a week. Rest and recuperation is just as important and should be part of a well-planned exercise program.
When is the best time of the day to exercise?
There are pros and cons to working out during different times of the day. Your best bet is to exercise when it is most convenient for you, consistently. You are better off exercising after work if you keep skipping out on your workouts because you could not get up in the morning. - 31828
