THE SECRET TO IDEAL WEIGHT MANAGEMENT
Did you know that only less than 5% of calorie deficit based dietsactually have long term results? Typically they fail due to improper balance of macronutrients as well as a lack of exercise and energy expenditure which in turn will decrease lean muscle and lower the metabolism. Initial success with a diet usually is due to water loss because of the lack of carbohydrates and minimal calorie intake which is not healthy in the long run.
The absolute best way to maintain an ideal body weight and be totally satiated, is to eat 5-6 small balanced meals with a nutritional plan ratio of 40% carbohydrates, 30% proteins and 30% fats in order to balance out insulin and glucagon hormones which maintains ideal blood sugar levels and therefore stores little or no body fat. To maximise your weight loss success it is important that you aim to be active at least 3-6 hours a week with both resistance and cardiovascular exercise. This is not only essential for fat loss and lean muscle growth; it revs up the metabolism so calories will be burned even in your sleep! This will also lead to more strength, lean muscle growth and a significant increase in energy levels!
We recommend three to four cardio-basedtraining sessions (e.g. RPM, BODYATTACK, BODYCOMBAT, BODYSTEP or BODYJAM) per week, which will help you burn fat, expend serious amounts of energy and improve your fitness level,as well astwo to three resistance training sessions (e.g. BODYPUMP) per week, which will help you to gain or maintain muscle, improve your strength, endurance and the shape of your body, and increase your metabolic rate so that you keep the weightoff long-term.
Remember, the best results come from strategic planning, goal setting and working hard along the way.
