Top 4 Mistakes Most Women Make When Trying Lose Weight

 

If you’re a woman on a mission to burn fat, there’s a good chance you are making one or two (or more) mistakes along the way. I see it time and time again and yet, few women ever actually crack the weight loss code.

It really doesn’t need to be as complicated as it seems. By learning what these mistakes are, you can quickly put them behind you and get on track to seeing better results.

Let’s look at four fat loss mistakes you need to know about.

Starvation Diets

If 1400 calories is good, 1000 must be better, right? Wrong. Your body needs fuel to burn fat properly. As strange as it may sound, if you cut your calories back too far, your body will just cling onto what fat it does have, making further fat loss feel impossible.

You want to use a moderate calorie deficit, like the guidelines set forth in the 3 Week Diet plan as this will ensure that your metabolism stays revved and you keep burning fat.

Gym Tips and Motivation

Before beginning any workout or physical activity, it is essential that you consult your physician.  Whether you are in a beginner, intermediate or advance level, it is equally important to set a work out program that includes the following:

  1. Cardiovascular Exercise
  2. Strength Training
  3. Flexibility
  4. Proper Nutrition

Stay focused and stay with your exercise program.  Keep this in mind.

  1. Avoid Plateaus
  2. Take Breaks
  3. Stay Motivated!!

Your motivation is crucial.  Avoid strolling around the gym and taking long breaks in between workouts.  If your goal is to get fit and workout, your key is to stay focused and committed to a program and goal.  This is where it starts for you.

First Step: Commitment.  Focus.  Make no excuses and get to that gym.  You will feel better when you do.  Set a schedule to go 2 to 3 days a week – without fail.  Change your on/off days around, break the monotonous in your schedule.  Whatever works best for you but committing to the 3 days a week.

SUN
MON
TUE WED THU FRI SAT SUN MON
OFF ON ON OFF ON OFF OFF ON ON

 Choose your best time of the day.  If you’re a morning person, you may want to work out early mornings.  If you prefer and or feel more motivated after work then set your work out schedule without fail.  Again, find your best time of the day and stay committed!!

Second Step: Always warm up – 5 to 10 minutes on the elliptical machine, bike or light jogging.

Stay Focused Working OutThird Step: Do less. Forget about 3 sets. One set of 10 to 20 with enough weight to tire the muscle – not to the point of pain or strain (you do not want to get hurt). This yields 90% of the benefit of 3 sets in 1/5 of the time!!! Less boring too!!  Staying aware of your workout progress will keep you connected to what your body is doing and feeling.

Limit yourself to 6 to 9 machines and 20 to 30 minutes. Rotate your workout among upper body, core (mid-section) and legs. Keep moving. No rests. Work major muscle groups. Curls not needed. Arms are worked indirectly by chest, back or shoulder exercises. The slower you move weight the better. Do not rush through it, slow movement will work the muscle over its full range.

Fourth Step: Hop on the elliptical machine for 10 to 20 minutes. You can optionally switch to the treadmill for another 5 to 10. Work hard enough to sweat. NO READING allowed. Once you have settled into a routine, intersperse with 1 or 2 minute intense intervals (interval training) where you push your heart rate an extra 10 or 20 BPM.

Fifth Step: Cool down for 5 minutes on treadmill. Stretch at the end of each workout. Reward yourself with a few minutes in the steam room or sauna.

Create challenges for yourself.  Continue to set different goals as you progress. Join NC Bodyduilding today to help keep you motivated by network with Fitness Consultant, online Personal Trainers, Nutriton and other people that's living a healthy Lifestyle! CLICK HERE JOIN!

The Benefits of Couples Working out Together

Couple Working OutMost people do not relate health with romance.  It's no unknown fact that when you are healthy, fit and active, your energy level is high.  The health, sexual, and psychological benefits of staying in shape are inspiring and your effort to get there is small in comparison. 

Studies have shown that when working out as couples it builds positive energy in a relationship.  The level of workout or training does not necessarily need to be the same for each individual. 

The beauty of fitness training with your couple it's that it can get intimate when there's personal contact between the two people. This makes every relationship special and can grow stronger with time. Staying focused in training while developing the skill of working out together will help your relationship grow and the two of you will share that moment for a long time. 

Ignite a new spark and have fun.  Fitness training and staying fit will make your dream and desire come alive.  Working out with your partner is fun.  Do things that you both enjoy or try new things:  strength training, spinning, boot camp, bike riding, dance to fitness, hiking, racketball and walk or job.

Become healthier and fit and have the time of your life!
