STRONG Idea: Lose the Belly Fat; Beyond the Crunch
By Emily Stapleton on February 26, 2013 from Strong Ideas
• Make healthy food choices. Notice I didn’t say, “go on a diet”. You should be eating 6 to 8 times per day, with an emphasis on fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains.
• Get adequate sleep. Most people need between 7 and 8 hours of sleep each night. Even a moderate amount of sleep deprivation can lead to stress, stress eating, and can mess with your hormone production.
• Exercise at least 4 times per week. You don’t have to use a fancy ab machine. You just have to burn calories and build lean muscle to increase your metabolism. There is no doubt that exercise works to reduce body fat all over your body, and that includes the mid-section.
• Reduce Stress. See the top four suggestions to help with stress reduction. Current research links high levels of stress with an oversized mid-section. The jury is still out as to how the two are related.
Until next week,
Emily
High protein food and lack of exercise caused fatness and weight gain.Exercise and proper diet are very important to lose weight and improve fitness. Avoid all high protein food like meats, nuts, grains, cheese, fast foods, fried and dairy products. Eat fresh fruits, vegetables, yogurt, drink green tea, fruit juices and plenty of water.
