All over the internet if you look up how to burn fat fast, you will find countless options that work very well like high intensity training and a keto diet while some are total baloney. Each valid way to lose fat fits a particular type of person and lifestyle. When you eventually find one that fits, the most important thing to remember is to stop making fitness excuses like “I don’t have enough time” or “I have kids to look after” or many, many more you can cook up. You just need to commit, and replace an unproductive activity with exercise.

 

Can I get that toned bod and a six pack easily?

No, you won’t. Unless you roid up and work out like an animal like Hollywood stars do. But those abs will be short lived and the side effects quite nasty. It’s not as simple as it sounds so here are some tips on how to burn fat fast and actually follow through with it.

 

Set your long term goals

Don’t be like some boxers and MMA fighters who crash diet to make weight. You can do that but you will suffer more when you get older. Instead, work on a long term fitness routine and understand that it will take time. Plan for a marathon or triathlon as those sports are the best cornerstones for general fitness that you can build around.

 

Get beefy

Once you got your cardio squared away and you’re in good shape, this will be a great time to start weight training. Pack on proteins by drinking work out supplements and don’t shy away from red meats since they give you that testosterone boost, and helps muscles rebuild. If you’re lean, wear a weighted vest and watch those pounds fly and your gains go up.

 

Think positive

I know this sounds cliché but this is something you need to do if you want to do this in the long run. Laugh up your problems and the hormone Cortisol helps dissolve fat too. Check your weight regularly to motivate yourself and be proactive in following your routine. Don’t be afraid to game on your pc rig or binge on Netflix after a workout. Just lay off the snacks.

 

Use your rest days

Eat whatever you want on your rest day. Indulge yourself so you don’t feel like you are depriving yourself. But make sure to stick to your diet on other days.

 

The right food and drink

To burn fat fast you need the right stuff in your body. Green and high fiber veggies are a must-have to supplement all the meaty proteins you’re getting. Green Tea is excellent in metabolizing fat, White tea is even better if you can find some.  

If you have an urge to eat carbs, save that thought for later. You might think that dough is bad but when cooked after being cooled, it’s a good pre-workout boost.

 

Time to sweat it off mate!

Doing workouts pre-breakfast could effectively burn fat. It encourages your body to burn your stored fat rather than the food you just ate during the day.
