Carb Syncing™ and Optimized Nutrient Combining™ are the two daily tools you'll need to keep your body in a fat burning state 24 hours a day, but there's also a very important long term strategy that is an absolute must if you want to keep your metabolism happy week after week: 3) Strategic Overfeeding™ Any time you decrease your calorie intake in an effort to shed those stubborn pounds, your body responds by derailing your metabolism and decreasing levels of fat burning hormones as an anti-starvation mechanism .
Spend 45 minutes on the treadmill and maybe burn 1/10 th of one pound of fat.
Up next, the only research proven way to increase metabolism around the clock: 4) Metabolic Resistance Training™ As mentioned previously, most exercise doesn't do anything for your metabolism over the long term.
Why, because Storage + Fat = Fat Storage , and you don't want that. When you eat fat, fatty acids are released in to the blood. When you eat carbs, insulin is released in to the blood to shuttle blood sugar to its storage sites. Putting two and two together, you can likely see that the two nutrients you'll want to avoid eating together are carbs and fat.
Sure, you'll burn a few calories during the session, but even 45 minutes on a treadmill only cashes in at 500 calories, or a whopping 1/7 th pound of fat (and that's assuming that all 500 calories being burned are coming directly from stored fat, which they aren't).
What you may not know, however, is that how you combine these nutrients can and will have a profound effect on your body's hormonal response to each meal, and therefore your fat loss.
Do you know how much MORE fat you'll burn from one of those workouts? Yes, WAY more than "cardio" or traditional high rep circuit training, that's for sure.
By frequently resetting your metabolism with strategically placed high-calorie Cheat Days, you can essentially have your cake and eat it too while watching your waistline continually shrink week after week.
Not. Worth. It. And above all that, traditional exercise provides virtually NO prolonged elevation in metabolism. In fact, with slow-go cardio, metabolism returns to baseline almost IMMEDIATELY following the exercise session.
4 Strategies You MUST Employ To Ensure You Never Go A Minute Without Burning Fat There's no way around it, if you want to burn fat all the time, your body must be in a fat burning state all the time .
There are 3 ways, and we'll be outright GIVING them to you in just a minute. Reason #2 – You're not performing exercise that TRULY boosts your metabolism. Did you know that certain types of exercise have been shown to dramatically increase metabolism? And by dramatically I mean for up to 48 hours straight.
Fortunately, we do both with the use of four very strategic methods employed in the 24/7 Fat Loss system: 1) Optimized Nutrient Combining™ You likely already know that you should be eating a mix of high quality proteins, healthy fats, and fibrous carbohydrates daily.
Again, carbs cause the storage hormone insulin to be released. Fat ingestion leads to large amounts of fatty acids in the blood. Insulin + fat = fat storage. To avoid this "deadly combination", follow this simple rule: Consume protein with every meal. Add either carbs or fat (but not both). So now that you know which nutrients to eat together (and those to avoid), when should you eat a Protein + Carb meal and when should you eat meals that contain Protein + Fat? The answer: 2) Carb Syncing™ Contrary to popular belief, the key to fat loss is not avoiding carbs, it's learning to eat them only when your body is most primed to "handle" them best.
You see, if you truly want the time you spend exercising to have a lasting effect on your metabolism (and your waistline), there's only one particular style of exercise that has been scientifically proven to do it – and that's the exact style of exercise we'll be filling you in on in the next section.
incomplete recovery). The exercises are "non-competing" because they transition from upper body to lower body, allowing the muscles [...].
If you're in to snacking like we are, mid-morning is another great time for carbs. The second "best" time to eat carbs is after intense exercise since your body is ultra primed to suck them up for recovery and energy replenishment, and NOT fat storage.
