There are so many fat loss myths that exist in "the exercise of the earth" who was hired by men fitness magazine and write a myth each month.
After all, now you have probably heard that if you do 60 minutes of cardio in your fat burning zone on an empty stomach while Venus is in line with Jupiter, you 'll never burn fat.
The problem with myths is that they are not only wrong and give false hope to millions of people trying to lose weight, but also waste your time and mental effort.
I have also seen these myths used as justification for cheating on a diet , watching countless men and women justify their "treats" because they believe they are in a kind of magical year
program or nutrition plan .
I could go on for days about fitness myths , but I cut my list of 30 Page 5 fat loss myths drive today. I'll put the other 25 for future newsletters .
Myth # 1: You need to do cardio first thing in the morning on an empty stomach.
Relax. You do not have to get on the treadmill at 4:30 am every morning. Let common sense dictates when and how to exercise .
If you want to work first thing in the morning, and I know this is the best time for many readers , of course, go ahead and do it . There is nothing magical about this time - even if it is often the only time many days many people themselves.
We need to think " out of time" to exercise and realize that calorie burning and fat burning continued for 24 hours. Forget theories and look at the big picture.
No matter when you exercise - as long as you exercise intensely and consistently . Focus on relatively high intensity to increase your metabolism for hours after exercise as possible workouts . It is best done with interval training and resistance training.
Myth # 2: You need to do your cardio in your " fat burning zone " .
Again , silly .
While you can burn a greater proportion of total calories as fat when you exercise in your fat burning zone , you burn fewer calories overall by low intensity exercise such.
By increasing the intensity of your workout and get out of your so-called " fat burning zone " , you burn more total calories and therefore more fat .
In addition, the formation of " fat burning zone " does not " turbulence " in the muscles ... so it does not burn a lot of calories in the post-exercise period . But with interval training to burn a large amount of heat for hours after training , which results in a greater loss of fat .
I worked with hundreds of people who have avoided the fat burning zone while still managing to lose dozens of pounds of fat . The " fat burning zone " is one of the biggest myths of the ability of all time.
Myth # 3: You need to do cardio for 20 minutes before burning fat .
When I hear this, I imagine a transition from burning fat in my body that runs only after I did " cardio " for 20 minutes. But if I do I exercise for 19 minutes and 59 seconds? are
told me that I will not burn fat ? This is ridiculous .
What if I did it on an empty stomach in the morning and in my target heart rate zone ? ( Read that one sarcastic !)
I'll say it again. We should be more concerned about our metabolism 24 hours, not the amount of fat or how many calories are burned during the workout.
Myth # 4 : Drinking ice water will help you burn calories and lose fat .
Line at the grocery store is a great place to pick up the latest fat loss myths . You can also find everything on the Internet .
This myth often comes with some calculations showing that drinking 8 glasses of ice water can burn 70 calories per day . I do not think this is actually the case in real life . Regardless, drinking cold water will not burn more fat from your body than water at room temperature for drinking.
Do not get me wrong , I firmly believe that you should drink 12 glasses of water per day , but the temperature of the water will have no effect on your overall fat loss success .
Myth # 5: Add a pound of muscle burns 50 extra calories each day.
Uh- oh , now I'm cutting a myth that supports my use of strength training on a fat loss program . But I have an obligation to set the record straight this very common myth (even though I just saw a great fitness expert name to perpetuate this myth in a recent article!) .
This myth sounds so good . Add egg muscle book , boost your metabolism by 50 calories. This does not seem out of place at all .
But do the math for a man who puts on 30 pounds of muscle. Does your metabolism really increase by 1500 calories ? Of course not . For an average man should be your resting metabolism will increase from 2,500 calories to 4,000 calories per day. How would I be able to keep all of this muscle with a metabolism like that? Would have to eat like a pig forever.
So when you look at the big picture, you can see this little myth began to crumble.
This does not mean that you should stop your strength training , but just do not use this myth as an excuse to cheat on your diet.
Bonus Myth : Negative calorie foods cause weight loss
According to the "experts" negative calorie food requires more energy to digest that provides when you eat. And included in the list of negative calorie foods are apples and bananas.
So in this sense , does not bother me I would starve if he had nothing to eat but apples ( because they would have a net loss of energy to eat a meal called "negative calories ") .
There is no such thing as a negative calorie food .
It is a shame that people are out there promoting these things, and it's a shame that so many people fall in love with it .
Remember the old adage, " if it sounds too good to be true , it probably is not true. "
Instead , the principles of fat loss apply common sense. This will be an ongoing effort , working hard in your workouts and your diet to get the results you want.
