You Don't Have Time To Lose Weight?

By Howe Russ


In a recent survey, 87% of people in the UK reported that they feel like they don't have time to lose weight and can't fit regular exercise into their busy lifestyles. Today we are going to be looking at this and revealing the simple rules which will teach you how to lose weight without dedicating your entire life to the gym.

One of the biggest misconceptions with fitness is that it's supposed to take over your life. It is most certainly not.

Believe it or not, your diet plays just as important a role as working out and you will be amazed at how much progress a few small changes to you diet will make. This works particularly well for those who have not led a very healthy lifestyle in the past or those who have never really known what to eat before. The list below details the most important factors.

* Ignore hyped up diets, often endorsed by celebrities, offering instant and effortless results. They're nothing but marketing gimmicks designed to take your money. Notice the same celebrities in six months time back out of shape, before releasing yet another workout dvd the following festive period. It's a career for them, and it promotes unhealthy yo-yo dieting.

* Remember you don't just want to lose weight, you want to lose fat. Cutting down on carbohydrates is fine but you'll need to increase your protein intake otherwise you'll start simply burning off muscle and retaining unwanted body fat. Not a good place to be.

* Understand how to make the most of a calorie deficit.

* Be sure to make the most of 'cheat' days.

* Learn how to use protein as an effective snack.

The rules above will teach you how to get started literally right now at home. By the time you even consider your first workout you should already be feeling better and noticing an extra spring in your step. Speaking of that first workout, we'd like to dismiss the notion that your gym time needs to take over your life. The truth is this is a nonsense idea put forward by people who are simply addicted to training. You don't need to spend ages in the gym to see good results from it.

How long do you have during the day for a potential workout? Even if it's as little as fifteen minutes the fact is you can do something. Don't make excuses or you won't make progress.

Don't be fooled into assuming that you need high tech equipment to get a great exercise session. You do not. In a minimum amount of time you can create a fantastic workout session which hits all of the major muscles in your body and burns a lot of unwanted body fat. Better still, you can do it without the need of any equipment at all!

Body weight exercises like squats, push-ups and pull-ups may be basic but they provide an absolutely fantastic place to get started with your journey. In fifteen minutes or less you can transform your body with no equipment, no personal trainers and no financial outlay.

If you've been trying to figure out how to lose weight and getting nowhere, or telling yourself I don't have time to lose weight because of my lifestyle you now know the truth. There is nothing stopping you from accomplishing your goals. The ball sits in your court now, use it.
