subject: How To Incinerate Extra Body Fat When You Are Resting [print this page] One of the secrets for successful fat loss is learning how to burn extra calories when you are not exercising. It's like having a passive source of income that just keeps on making your bank account bigger and bigger, even while you sleep.
But there is a catch here: most people do not know how to do this.
So, without further ado, here is how to lose extra fat outside of the gym when you are doing nothing:
1. Go big and heavy: Use your biggest muscles with the heaviest weights during the beginning of your workout. This will help create a situation where you secrete extra fat burning hormones post workout and where your body goes into oxygen debt.
2. Increase the intensity: This is the single best thing you can do to burn extra calories outside of your workouts. You see, when you crank up the intensity, you create an oxygen debt which is paid off when you rest. Again, this costs calories.
3. Don't forget about the little guys: While hitting the big muscles should be a top priority, you also want to hit the smaller muscles for the best results. This will allow you to burn some extra calories while preserving the integrity of your joints and connective tissue.
4. Reduce rest between sets: Of all the intensity boosters, this one is king. The less you rest the more calories you will burn days after exercising. But there is a catch, reducing rest periods is very challenging because you don't allow your body to fuller recover.
5. Eat before exercising: Not only is exercising on an empty stomach painful, but it actually decreases fat loss through a wide variety of mechanisms. Even worse, you can't crank up the intensity if you are running on empty.
Going really hard while you are exercising in the gym is the best way to burn extra fat while you are doing other things with your life. Just remember one thing: taking action is still the number one thing you have to do for success.
