Ok guys! General diet and fitness thread here. I keep getting asked how to target specific areas for weight loss or fat loss. You can’t! It’s that simple, fat loss comes off every part of your body. You just see it quicker on some areas than others. 1)
There is no quick fix either. See all thes fad diets you see? You know 2:1, Cambridge, weight watchers etc etc. They’re all pish. They’re businesses, there to take in cash from the gullible. Some are also wickedly bad for your body. If you want bowel problems then fire away.2)
It’s easy, it’s not rocket science. Calorie deficit is all that’s required. Be accountable for everything you eat and drink and be aware that many of you are taking in empty calories by the bucket load daily. Everything you drink has calories in it. Except water 3)
If you want to get lean then you’ve got to get your head in the right place. Track your food and drink and be consistent and accountable. Oh and being good all week and binging on shite at the weekend doesn’t work either. Just fucking stop it! 4)
Exercise! It may surprise you but exercise isn’t a huge factor in weight loss. It helps obviously but diet is the most important thing. Get your diet spot on then your at the races. You don’t need to be an Olympic athlete to build up fitness and build muscle either 5)
We’re all at different fitness levels. But one of the best things we can do is walk. Make sure you get those 10k plus steps a day. That’s key! Worry about adding in other things once you can do that daily. I don’t recommend jogging as it’s hellish on the joints. 6)
Cardio can be done in so many ways and you don’t need to be at it hours. Quickest and most effective cardio workout you’ll get is through HIIT. Short fast blasts of training and it also builds muscle. I also highly recommend adding in weight training 7)
Especially for women who are at higher risk of osteoporosis. It’s also fabulous for the pelvic floor ladies. There is nothing better for a bloke than a woman who lifts. Tight ladies tight 😂😂😂. So start smashing the weights then smashing your men in bed. 8)
So we’ve learned that diet is key. Scrap the stupid diets and track calories. Calorie deficit is the way to go. Add in exercise gradually and start lifting. Oh consistency is key, it’s not happening over night. Be patient and enjoy the process.
