Workout Routines For Weight Loss

Admin — Sun, 13 Jan 2008 12:08:25 +0000

Second only to diet is your weight loss workout routine. We encourage all people who are trying to lose weight to train with weights. Training with weights increases your muscle mass which means you burn more calories every minute of every day. The more lean muscle you have on your body, the more calories you need/burn. So even a small amount of muscle gain (especially in women) can really lift your metabolic rate.

I suggest you check out some of the weight lifting workout routines over at Muscle&Strength. They have plenty of good workout routines for both men and women. You can use one of these routines in conjunction with a good diet and cardio plan and you will lose weight.

Good luck!

Tip 42: Reading Nutritional Information Tables on foods

Admin — Fri, 25 Aug 2006 01:22:47 +0000

When comparing foods you need to take into consideration sugar, salt (sodium), fat, and fibre. We need to eat more fibre and less sugar, fat, and salt. Nutritional tables always list the ingredients per 100g as well as per serve. Always compare the ‘per 100g’ figures. We have listed examples of high and low amounts.

The following are large amounts per 100 g:

30g of sugars
20g of fat
3g of fibre
600 mg of sodium

The following are small amounts per 100 g:

5g of sugars
3g of fat
0.5g of fibre
120mg sodium

Tip 41: Add some chilli to your meals

EATING chilli regularly could help in the fight against insulin resistance and obesity, according to new Australian research.

In a comparison of bland versus chilli-laden meals, researchers from the University of Tasmania’s School of Human Life Sciences found that a few spoonfuls of chilli reduced the post meal surge in insulin, particularly in overweight people.

People with resistance to the actions of insulin have an increased risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease, as well as polycystic ovary syndrome, fatty liver and certain cancers.

The study found that in overweight subjects, changes to a range of glucose metabolism measures following chilli meals were more marked than those seen in normal weight subjects.

Tip 40: Dont weigh yourself too often!

Don’t weight yourself too often. Use a tape measure and the fit of your clothes to monitor weight loss. Take regular measurements of your arms, thighs, waist, hips etc. Your bodyweight fluctuates throughout the day. You weigh more at night time than you do on the morning. If you weigh yourself too often you may get disappointed when you see slight weight gains.

Tip 39: Get Walking and get a Pedometer

Admin — Mon, 10 Jul 2006 11:55:22 +0000

Walking is one of the best ways you can burn calories. You should aim to walk as much as you can in everyday life. I recommend you get a pedometer. Using a pedometer you can easily monitor your daily activity. You can also use a pedometer to work out how many calories you are burning in everyday walking. You will be surprised at how the small distances you walk throughout the day build up!

Tip 38: Refined Pasta = Bad For Weight Loss

Admin — Thu, 06 Jul 2006 11:04:23 +0000

Refined pasta is as bad as everyone says it is. When I say refined pasta I mean white pasta. White pasta (like white bread) is usually heavily refined and will bring your weight loss plans to an abrupt hault. Now I’m not saying you should give up pasta alltogether, just choose your pasta wisely.

I suggest you switch to wheat based pasta’s like Barilla. Barilla pasta is packed with fibre and protein. The taste and texture is different to regular pasta which some people may not like. My sugguestion, give it a try!

Tip 37: Change your lifestyle NOT your diet

Admin — Tue, 04 Jul 2006 01:44:40 +0000

If you think of weight loss as a “diet” you’re probably going to put back on any weight you lose and then some. Diets are temporary. When you make the change to a healthier lifestyle you are literally changing the way you live. Successfully changing your lifestyle is the real key to long term weight management.

You need to think about the long term, not just dropping xx amuont of pounds by next month. If you make a permanent change to your lifestyle managing your weight will become a whole lot easier!
