Fat Loss Tips.

I don’t know how tested this is, but when I began body building I studied up on alot of things and nutrition was one.
Most Professional bodybuilders consume far in excess of calories to support their body weight when they are trying to add muscle mass, but when they are in their off season, contest time coming up in so many weeks give or take they begin a reduction, too much a reduction of calories too fast can result in the body going into a starvation mode where what little is consumed, is stored as fat to protect itself from the shock of the denial, this is where people tend to see their result be little or even nothing at all, and sometimes even add pounds reguardless of diet and exercise, then they tend to make an even greater mistake when the results come to a hault and cut calories even further, which can lead to a whole lot of physical and mental problems form mal nutrition. What you first must do is calculate your caloric intake to maintain your present weight, average diet is about 2500 calories or more depending on your size, for a male, and about 1800 for a female. I wouldn’t suggest starting any lower. They key factor to avoid that starvation mode is to cheat one or two days a week which is especially easy on the weekend having a social life, but that doesn’t mean binge eat or gorge your self for one or two days, but forget the diet that day or two and eat as say you normally would, and don’t be scared over the excess, it will actually keep your body regulated to where week after week you will continue to loose weight and your body weight will regualate at a certain point to a certain ammount of pounds, once it has, then if you still need to drop some weight, continue to drop at the rate of 300 – 500 calories a week, not each week, drop it that amount once, say 2500 down to 2200 each day until you again level off, then drop another 300 calories if need be and so on and so forth, the lower end is especially safer when you get closer to your ideal weight. Remember, to weigh yourself the same day each week, probably best prior to that weekend cheating, and on a full stomach we actually carry three more pounds than an empty one, like in the morning, but it doesn’t mean you’ve gained three, it’s what your full stomach holds until it either burns the excess or stores it. But always remember to cheat….you will see once you get below the amount it takes to support your current lean mass, it will drop off, but don’t try to drop more than the suggested amount to speed it up, or it can cause the body to react as if it needs to store calories because of the shock, just like not cheating will.
