How to Lose Body Fat Quickly and Efficiently

The first thing people think of when you say "I want to lose body fat" is you need to diet. Weight loss tips like this are only 1/2 the equation. You see the best way to quickly and efficiently lose body fat is by incorporating a workout, specifically muscle building into your weight loss plan. Here are the reasons why.

Working out with weights has many benefits both during the workout and after. Consider these ways a workout can help you lose body fat.

You burn calories and lose body fat during the workout itself
An intense workout elevates your metabolism for up to 35 Hours after the workout, higher metabolism = more calories burned while doing nothing, a great way to lose body fat.

One study has shown that an intense workout 3 times a week can burn an extra 2 pounds of fat just from the elevated metabolism alone. So you see, working out is a great way to lose body fat.

Another great benefit of working out to lose body fat is adding lean muscle mass to your body. Lean muscle mass burns calories even when you aren't doing anything. Again, a great way to lose body fat! Studies have shown that adding just one pound of muscle mass adds 35 to 60 calories per day to your resting metabolism. Adding lean muscle is another great way to lose body fat.

If you still aren't convinced weight training is a great way to lose body fat consider this. If you don't workout while dieting 1/2 of your weight loss is muscle mass. If you have less muscle mass then your metabolic rate goes down leading to an eventual end to weight loss since you would have to eat less and less to lose weight.

One of the most important weight loss tips I give to people is to start working out to lose body fat. Added muscle, less fat, you'll look great in no time!! And, since you have all that muscle once you reach your weight loss target, you can eat more since your resting metabolic rate is much higher than when you started to lose body fat.
