With it being #personaldevelopment #FridayFeeling I thought you'd enjoy this recommendation for your #fitnessmotivation & #Workout #Advice His caption: I regularly get asked about how to lose weight, which is hardly a surprise given my job. Advice should always be specific to the individual client – but to get in shape and look better, follow these basic rules: 70% nutrition: You are what you eat - so it’s important to eat good food in order to be healthy. If you eat rubbish then you will look and feel like rubbish. Food provides us with a range of nutrients: vitamins, minerals, water, fat, carbohydrates, fibre, and protein. To get all your essential nutrients, eat a variety of vegetables, fruits, lean protein (fish, lean meat, beans or low-fat dairy foods), whole grains, and healthy fats, including nuts and olive oil. A 20% calorie deficit will maximise fat loss and minimise muscle loss. Limit your intake of alcohol, biscuits, cakes and sweets, etc. Drink water instead of sugary drinks. Does your diet rely on special bars, shakes, supplements, etc? If so, bin them! 20% weight training: Resistance training is an essential component of fat loss, as it builds muscle essential to your metabolism, increases 24 hour energy expenditure, and has health benefits beyond just doing cardio or lots of HIIT. If your training doesn’t include weighted squats, then are you actually training? Think about it; if you do any form of exercise whilst watching TV or talking incessantly, then are you really doing enough? 7% HIIT Burpees burn lots of calories. And it’s all about the calories. Focus your HIIT on what burns the most calories. Cardio machines just don’t cut it. 2 x HIIT workouts, 5 to 10 minutes each, should be enough. 3% cardio: Do 10,000 steps a day. More and more doctors and fitness experts recommend walking 10,000 steps every day as a way to maintain a healthy weight and exercise your heart.
