Atkins Diet High Blood Pressure
Body Fat Reduction! How do I do it?
I’m trying to reduce my body fat percentage to about 10%. It’s currently approximately 20%.
I do both cardio and weight exercises but I’ve come to the point where I’m not changing much any more and I really need to lower my body fat percentage to see the difference. Exercise alone will not achieve this but diet will.
Apparently reducing calories is not the answer but reducing the carbs and wheat is, but I really really don’t want to do the Atkins diet because My cholesterol iis borderline high and my blood pressure is a tad high too!
Anybody got any suggestions?
Carbs? Fat?
What a pile of bullsh!t. You have probably just got into a plateau from doing the same exercises week in, week out so your muscles – which have memory – have got bored, are no longer stimulated and thus the muscle has stopped growing and the fat has stopped melting.
Start mixing up your work out routine and, needless to say, make sure you eat healthy foods and cut all of the crap out. Keep your calorie intake at no LESS than around 1500-1800 calories and no more than 2100 per day (assuming you are an “average” sized adult male). Eat small amounts of food around 6 times a day.
Start doing shorter, but really intense CV sessions. Start doing new weights exercises.
Also, you cannot burn fat without eating healthy. Go do a gym workout then go home and eat sh!t = very poor, if no weight loss at all.
Likewise, eat healthy a don’t exercise = very poor weight loss as well.
Finally, let’s talk about carbs. Carbs are not bad. That is marketing, Atkins diet, weapons-grade horsesh!t.
You lose fat by a very simple equation – less calories in, MORE calories out. Carbs are energy (and like most things considered “food”, contain calories). You need them if you exercise. They are also almost as essential as PROTEIN if you want to build muscle. They get glycogen back into the muscles and help synthesise protein.
Just stay away from processed (white) carbs – like white bread, white pasta, white rice, etc. And instead, hit the wholegrain carbs – wholegrain bread, wholegrain pasta, wholegrain rice, oats, etc. These are good carbs, and are excellent for energy, stabalising blood sugar levels and thus can help REDUCE body fat.
Also, not eating carbs after X hour of the day is also complete bull. I eat carbs after my workouts at about 8.30-9pm, yet I have still managed to burn off around 2 stone of body fat in 10 months… So what does that say???
Exercise correctly/regularly and eat a healthy, balanced diet (wholegrain (carbs), lean meats, fruit, veg, nuts, seeds) and the weight will fall off and, assuming you are doing weights and doing it properly, the muscle will grow.
Hope this helps you misinformed cretin.
