This is post is the first in a series of 7 posts aimed at detailing the official burn-body-fat.blogspot.com nutritional plan. More info about the series here.In previous posts I gave an overview of some pretty complicated science – hot the body reacts to different meal compositions, why most of the time more protein is better, why some fats are essential while others should be removed from our diet and so on. Some people find scientific facts to be interesting but, by this point, many readers still don’t have a clue about how to set up a diet. For those of you that have problems understanding the complex underlying mechanisms I have very good news: While the theory is complicated it’s put into practice doesn’t have to be! As a matter o...

| Carbohydrate selection and the insulin to glucagon ratio. |
| 2008-02-15 11:51:00 |
This post builds on the ground work set up in the How meal composition affects fat loss post. If you haven't read it, I strongly suggest reading it before you go one with this one.Ok, let's do this. This time I want to talk about how and when you should eat your carbohydrates to stimulate the use of stored body fat for fuel.The total amount of insulin secreted and the period of time insulin levels stay elevated after a meal is ingested depend on the amount and types of carbohydrates eaten.Carbohydrate classification and the glycemic index.Carbohydrates were conventionally classified structurally as simple or complex.Simple carbohydrates are sugars known as monosaccharides. The term is usually used to describe refined sugars and white flour products. The natural simple carbohydrates are fr...

| How meal composition affects fat loss |
| 2008-02-09 07:17:00 |
Insulin and glucagon – the unsuspected keys to successful fat loss Insulin and glucagon play important metabolic roles.Insulin is a storage hormone, promoting the storage of glucose as muscle and liver glycogen and the storage of dietary fat as triglycerides in the adipose tissue.Glucagon is a release hormone. It triggers the release of stored fat and the breakdown of glycogen into glucose.Insulin and glucagon are inversely pared hormones – when one is high the other is low. For this reason storage and release do not occur at the same time. Which process occurs at any given time depends on the insulin to glucagon ratio:insulin levels are higher then glucagon levels => glucose and fatty acid storage occursglucagon levels are higher the insu...

| Increased protein intake, faster fat loss? |
| 2008-01-25 14:06:00 |
Before laying out the guidelines for optimum protein consumption, let’s take a moment to examine what happens when not enough protein is consumed and to address the question of “How much protein does an active person need?”How much protein does an active person need?Protein has a mainly structural purpose in the body; the amino acids that result from the digestion of protein are used for the synthesis of non essential amino acids and other various compounds (different hormones, cell components etc.).Besides the small amount of amino acids floating around in the blood stream and in the muscles, the body has no “real” storage mechanism for amino acids.Because of this, it is critical to supply through your diet the amino acids the body needs for sy...

| Warning: Light weights and high reps won't tone your muscle |

LuckeyStoke has nice muscle tone!After years of being told that high reps increase muscle tone, I'm here to tell you to take the opposite approach. Read on to find out why it is actually heavy weight/low rep training that tones your muscles.The question most asked by novice trainees is: “How do I get the firm and toned body I always wanted?” The answer they will likely receive to this question is: “If you want to tone do light weights and high reps.” But guess what… your personal trainer or good intentioned friend is wrong! Read on to find out why light weights and high reps don’t tone your muscle and what should you do for excellent muscle tone. What is muscle tone anyway?

| Why training with weights is a must. |
| 2007-11-06 11:22:00 |
In the fitness world, there are very few things all people agree upon; the fact that, no matter what your goals are, strength training should be a part of your workout is one of them. And for a good reason too.Some of the benefits of weight training are:1. Burn more body fat.The short term benefit of weight training is that it burns calories while you do it, at a rate of about 150 calories per 30 min.If you compare this with cardio, which can burn up to 500 calories per 30 min, you may be tempted to skip weight training and do the cardio.Why not do this? Because of the long term effects of weight training; research has shown that post workout increases you Basal Metabolic Rate by as much as 20% for up to 48 hours after the workout.So a person that has a ...

| Who else wants to discover how to build a diet that forces your body to burn more fat? |
| 2007-10-23 10:23:00 |
If your main goal is losing fat what you should know is that if your diet is no incheck then no amount of exercise or supplements will help you reach your goals. A balanced diet is the base on any fat loss program – have a weak base and everything will crumble.Also, you should know that a lot of people misuse the word “diet” – a diet is not a 12 week quick fix, it is “food or feed habitually eaten”. What this translates in is that if you want lasting results you should change your core eating habits. Most diet books fail to get this point across and the ones that do fail to offer a way to re-engineer your diet simple enough so that every one could use it.Building a diet that forces your bo...

| The importance of goal setting |
| 2007-10-20 14:15:00 |
What is the number one reason for failing to lose body fat? I’ll give you a hit: It’s not a lack of knowledge regarding dieting and exercising.If you answered “failing to set clearly defined goals”, then you got the answer right!You see, the great challenge for people isn’t to find the knowledge but to take action on it. Goals fill this gap.It’s not enough to wish to change. You must define state and set a deadline for the wish in order to transform your dream into a goal. A goal with a purpose is the fuel that propels you forward."The strangest secret in the world is that you become what you think about.”- Earl Nightingale.Earl Nightingale is right that you become what you think about so instead of telling yourself every day that you can’t do it why don’t you imagine how...

| The basics of fat loss |
| 2007-10-20 14:08:00 |
The only way to lose fat is stated in the law of weight/fat loss also known as the law of energy balance:“In order to lose weight you must use more calories than you eat every day.”A calorie is a measurement for a form of energy – heat.The food you are eating releases, when digested, an amount of energy (heat). So each type of food has a caloric value.The total amount of calories that you consume in a day is the sum of the caloric values of the foods eaten on that particular day.Calories are also used as a measurement for the amount of energy stored in the body as adipose tissues (fat) or glycogen (stored carbohydrates).The amount of calories that you use in a day is also known as your total daily energy expenditure (TDEE) and consists of:• The c...

| Weight Loss VS Fat loss |
| 2007-10-20 13:10:00 |
The mistake that most people do, when they want to start a exercise program and diet, is to think that the bad shape their body is in is caused by a excess of weight.With this idea in mind they go on crash diets that produce a lot of weight loss at the begging. The problem with this crash diets is (and if you were on one previously you would know I'm right) that after a period they stop working and that the weight lost is gained back. Some people even end up weighing more at the end of a crash diet that they weighed when they started.These people failed because they failed to determine that -excess body fat - is the true cause of their problem and not their weight.Your total weight is the sum of:- your muscle mass- body fat amount- water weight and th...
