Did you know that most traditional so called “fat burning programmes” make you lose water weight and lean muscle mass. This is a way were you probably will lose some scale weight but follow this approach for some time and you will look like a sick person. I think you agree with me that the goal of a fat loss programme should be that you look and feel better. Read on and discover how to burn fat without losing muscle mass.

Tip 1 # Never starve yourself The problem with popular diets is that they are working against your body. You have to skip several meals or you are not allowed to eat all macronutrients. This is an absolute way to gain weight and to lose lean muscle mass. The first thing you need to do is eating approximately every three waking hours. We are talking about complete meals here a piece of fruit does not count as a meal. Many people have reported that eating more often but smaller portions take away their sugar and other unhealthy food cravings.

Tip 2 # Do high intensity interval training Probably you are doing already some form of cardio but by adding HIIT training to your fat loss programme you take your body to the next level. It is recommended for everyone to do high intensity interval training. It doesn’t matter if you are a men who wants to get six pack abs or a women who needs to lose pregnant fat.

HIIT training can be a challenge in the beginning but it is definitely a workout you need to do. Do your workouts early in the morning because HIIT increases your metabolism between sixteen and twenty hours after you have completed the exercise

HIIT training is better then slow steady state cardio and here is why. With HIIT training you are working out in intervals. Each interval has a different intensity. If you do traditional cardio your body enters a steady state. There is no variation in the intensity of your workout. Your body has adapted this state; in other words after a while some workouts do become to easy for your body and it stops burning fat

Tip 3 # Weight training Cardio and a good nutrition programme alone are not enough to burn fat and keep your lean muscle mass. Adding weight training workouts to your fat loss programme is the secret to get very lean and ripped. There are a lot of women who are afraid to train with weight and that is a shame. Without weight training you will never reach a truly lean body or a flat stomach.

Weight training is a great way to tone your body but you will not look like Arnold Schwarzenegger. Resistance training is also recommended because it gives you energy and strength.

Weight training is simply the best exercise to do if you want to lose fat fast but no lean muscle mass.
