If you want to speed up your fat loss and lose belly fat faster then here are a few ideas for you. First off all, in order to lose fat you need to be at a caloric deficit. This means that you are burning more calories than you are consuming, preferably through exercise.
1 Pound of fat is pretty much 3,500 calories. That means you need to burn off 3,500 calories and the safest way to do this is to burn it off 500 calories at a time, 7 days a week for 1 week. That means creating a deficit from food, eating less (500 calories), exercise it away(500 calories) or do a combination there of where you reduce your calorie intake by 250 and exercise for 250 calories per day. During that week, scientifically you should lose approximately 1 pound.
If you want to make this process easier for yourself, then try incorporating strength training into your routine. This can burn off over 250 calories and also give you additional calories being burnt from the afterburn. I recommend lifting heavy weights and doing compound movements as much as possible.
You can burn more fat in less time with interval training. My favorite 2 exercises to do for intervall training is: Sprints and Burpees. I also will sometimes do “hill sprints”, which is simple, just run up and walk slowly down. I count that as sprinting too. This type of exercise will also give you a very nice afterburn which is essential for burning fat 24/7.
The last idea is to simply move more throuought the day. Sitting or laying still doesn’t burn calories. So moving or swinging your feet while watching TV actually helps increase your calories burned. Small things add up during the day, so if you park further away at the mall, take the stairs more often etc it will eventually mean a lot more calories used during just normal day activity. If it is at all possible to increase your heart rate during the day, do so, any small increase of breath means increased metabolism for short periods of time!
That’s all for now, but hope you enjoy these simple tips to speed up your fat loss by changing small things and creating a nice 500 calorie deficit each day until you reach your goal weight!
