Burn Extra Fat

During your fat burning odyssey, you'll going to reach the point where your exercise routines and diet don't seem to be burning any more fat.  What do you do when this happens? Here are 5 tips that can help jump-start you back on your way to burning that extra fat. 

Rotate Calories Rotate the amount of calories you eat each day to get your body to burn those last layers of fat.  Over a period of time your body becomes accustomed to your eating habits.  To shock it out of complacency, increase your normal calorie intake by 300 calories for two days, then decrease decrease it by 200-300 for four days.  Make sure that you don't go to low and put your body into "starvation" mode which will trigger it to start storing fat. 

This is a trick many body builder use when workout and exercise routine has stalled.  This sudden change that the body experience forces it to adapt. 

Adjust your Calories As you lose weight, the amount of your recommended calories intake has changed.  You need to recalculate it and in most case lower it.  This simple adjustment may be all you need to lose those last few pounds of fat.  This doesn't mean skip meals though. 

I remember reading where a boxer was training and his trainer wanted him to get down to a certain weight.  For the first couple of weeks everything was going along find.  However, all of a sudden he stop losing weight.  When the trainer questioned him about what he was doing, he said that wasn't eating lunch.  Unknown to him this put his body into starvation mode which as you may know signals the body to start storing fat. 

As soon as he got back on his regular meal pattern, he was able to get down to his required weight.  So adjust your calories as necessary but keep eating.  This is the only way that you'll lose those last few pounds of fat. 

Increase your Cardio This may seem like a no-brainer but, you would be surprise at the number of people I've spoken to who do the same routine month after month expecting to see continued improvement.
