Psst, Want to Burn Fat Fast?
ByHey you. Yea you. Do you want to burn fat fast? I bet you’ve like to do it without having to exercise or having to change your diet. Well let me let you in on a well kept secret. Are you ready?
It ain’t gonna happen. You can hope all you want, but unless you change what you’re doing that got you over weight to begin with, you’ll be “wishing on a star”.
Why am I being so harsh? Actually, I prefer to call it tough love. Whatever you decide to call it, you need to realize that to lose those pounds, it’s all up to you to make the necessary changes in your life.
But you say it’s so hard!
I’m not going to tell you that it’s easy to break old habits and start new ones. If it were easy, there wouldn’t be a billion dollar industry built around just weight loss. That figure alone should suggest to you that something is afoot. (What can I say? I like Sherlock Holmes.)
What I am going to suggest to you is that you stop taking losing weight so seriously. I’m sure that it’s a safe bet that if you look back at most of the changes you made in your life, you’ll see that you didn’t make a big deal out of them.
The change could have been something as simple as choosing another route to go to work or maybe changing your brand of toothpaste. Nothing life changing about those decisions. And even though the benefits from losing that extra weight may be life changing, the decision to make the change doesn’t have to be.
Truth be told, everything in life is simple. It’s when we try to live life that we make it hard.
So what should you do about trying to lose weight? The answer to that is simple. Simply keep it simple. The harder you try, the harder it becomes. When you stop stressing over every little aspect of losing weight you are going to find that something marvelous starts to happen.
Bit by bit, you’ll actually find yourself doing the things necessary for you to lose weight. You may start out by just drinking more water. You may decide to go for a long walk. You may decide to go with a salad instead of a burger for lunch. You may even find yourself following that diet and exercise plan you laid out your hard earned cash for.
Whenever it happens, it is going to be because the fate of the world no longer rest on you following every minute aspect of your weight loss plan. Just like a seed sprouting from the soil, you’ll gradually grow into doing all the things that stressed you out before. And when that happens, you’ll wonder what the whole fuss was about anyway.

The quickest way to burn fat is with weight training. I would buy some weights. 3-5lbs. You don't want to much weight beause you will bulk and gain muscle mass, which will result in weight gain. Also for your abs do crunches everyday. You can even be watching tv or reading a book while tightening your abs hold for 5 seconds and release. You'll be amazed at what the results from doing that are.

You answer is both yes & no.
Yes you will start to build muscle under the fat but at the same time you are also burning off the fat that you do have so it will constantly be less. You also have to remember that muscle takes up a lot less space than fat does so as you are building muscle and losing fat you will get thinner, so don't worry about it.
Keep on working out and watch what you eat and you will be happy with your results.

sorry, but it's not as easy as "any exercise burns fat", if that were true, then why do most people lose muscle when they diet and exercise?
you have to MAKE your body lose fat. your body loves fat, it's the prefered fuel source… so it keeps it for last… it will burn anything other than fat to keep it as a last resort, unless you force it to burn fat.
this is done by:
1- going on a high caloric diet (12-14 cals per lb of bodyweight)
2- weight training with heavy weights (relatively heavy to make you fail in between 8-12 reps)
3- knowing your ratios in your diet… do you need more proteins, do you need less carbs? less fat? MORE fat?? (yes, some people lose more fat by eating more fat)
4- cardio when needed… i would rather increase my clients cardio sessions than decrease their caloric intake
5- proper supplementation
that's how you do it… most people will dismiss this notion because it's "too hard", but this is the only and most efficient way to lose fat (notice i said fat, and not weight)
hope that helps

According to sportsmedicine.com, your resting metabolism rate will be higher for up to a few hours after lifting weights if you train hard.
"A number of recent studies suggest that vigorous weight lifting exercise may elevate calorie burning above usual resting values for several hours after exercise. However, the average person at the gym who rests for several minutes between sets of exercise will likely not experience a prolonged elevation of postexercise energy expenditure."

Your body has to get more calories than it uses to store the energy, that is how we gain or lose weight. Regardless of whether what you eat is fat calories or complex carbohydrates it is the same thing. If you exercise and burn more than you ate then you do not gain weight. Your idea of burning the calories before you digest them is not the way it works. You can not burn off calories before they leave your digestive track. You do not burn off the new calories while they are in your stomach or intestines. So if you are counting calories and exercising eat healthy and you can control your weight.

12 Tips for Atkins Diet
1. If what you are eating has less than 1 carb, count it as 1 carb just to be sure.
2. Totally avoid caffine at least for the first two weeks on the program.
3. Drink a MINIMUM of 8 glasses of plain water or seltzer daily.
4. Don't weigh yourself more than once a week
5. Take starting measurements as well as weight – sometimes you'll lose inches before pounds
6. Avoid any type of "low carb" sweetener for the first two weeks
7. Don't compare your loss to someone else's – this is a YMMV thing (your milage may vary)
8. Stalls are common around the third week so don't panic
9. If you follow your plan to the T and don't lose, consider Candida as a possibility and avoid vinegar, cheese, mushrooms and any other fermented food
10. Have bloodwork done before starting so you have a comparison
11. Cholesterol can be elevated in the first few weeks til your body adjusts – make sure your doctor knows that you're doing low carb and when you started
12. Don't blame the diet if you don't read your plan book — blame the diet if you don't read the labels — Don't blame the diet if you don't follow the diet

Several possibilities here. First, you max heart rate might be higher than the formulas you're using are indicating. Those formulas can be way off for some people. For me, the formulas would indicate a max heart rate that's 30 beats slower than my actual max. The second possibility is that you're out of shape so your heart is racing even though you aren't running very fast. If that's the case, run at a pace that you can carry on a conversation. If you get completely out of breath, walk for one minute and then resume running. This will allow your heart rate to drop quite a bit. You'll burn more fat by running a longer time at first so your goal should be to work up to an hour on your long days and at least 30 minutes on the easy days. Once you do that for a few weeks, you should add a few strides. Strides are where you run a little faster for about 20-30 seconds, recover by walking, and the do another stride. You should build up to where you can do eight. The last few should be almost as fast as you can run. This helps speed up the metabolism so you burn more calories after you stop running for the rest of the day. Good luck and keep it up.

This guy has some good info, but he is annoying as fuck. Calm down dude, your just giving real ppl real info. You sound like a freaking infomercial.
You have a good upper body but your chest/shoulders are too big for your arms.
Work out the triceps more to be proportional.

I highly recommend losing the weight slowly and correctly. I guarantee the faster you lose it, the faster it will come right back. The last thing you want to do is crash diet and really mess up your metabolism. Remember, it didn't take you 3 months to put on all the extra weight, so it definitely will not take only three months to lose it. The safest total weight loss per week is 1 pound. There is 3,500 calories in a pound of body fat, so in order to lose 1 pound, you simply need to create a 500 calorie deficit per day. Over the course of a week, this equals out to 3,500 calories or 1 pound.
The best way to hit this 500 number every day is to create a 250 calorie deficit through your diet and another 250 calorie deficit through cardio exercise. Remember, you want to fuel your body with high nutrient foods and keep your metabolism "stoked" throughout the day. The worst thing you can do is limit your food intake to severely which will cause your body to go into starvation mode and hold onto your body fat reserves. Your body is thinking its getting ready for a period of famine and will hold onto all the energy it can to survive this period. I recommend eating at least 1,500 calories per day and make sure you're eating "clean" and nutritious food. You want to make sure to eliminate all the excess and empty calories from your daily intake. The best way to do this is to write down everything you eat.
I recommend a general "clean" diet to adhere to. I would focus on lean protein sources (chicken breast, turkey breast, egg whites) and non-white starchy carbs such as brown rice, whole wheat pasta and boiled red potatoes.
I recommend starting on a light exercise program after your medical physical has been completed. You will experience the best results from a solid cardio program along with a nutritious diet when compared to only focusing on your diet.
Cardio training is any exercise that elevates your heart rate to a range between 60 to 85 percent of your maximum rate (fastest your heart could possibly beat). When you're in this heart rate range, you're training in an "cardiovascular" or "aerobic" state. Cardio training has numerous health benefits. In addition to burning calories and losing body fat, it strengthens your heart and lungs. Since heart disease is the leading cause of premature death for both men and women, cardiovascular fitness is a extremely important!
Most experts agree that cardiovascular training should last for 20 to 60 minutes, with the normal range being 30 to 40 minutes per session. Cardio should be performed a minimum of three days per week, with four to five days being optimal. Good examples of cardiovascular exercises :
Aerobics
Elliptical Trainers
Running
Sprinting
Stationary Bike
Tae Bo
Walking
Rope Jumping
Swimming
Sports
The list could go on forever.
The amount of calories you burn during your cardio session depends on your current body weight and the type of cardio exercise your doing.
Foods that are rich in Vitamin C have the properties of acting as fat burners. Limes, lemons, oranges, grapefruit and vegetables like, broccoli, cabbage, celery, carrot, watermelon and apple fall into this category. Broccoli and cabbage contain high quantities of calcium and vitamin C, and is also fibrous. What vitamin C does it dilutes the fat and thus renders it less effective. It also becomes easier for such fat to be flushed out of the system. Pectin is found in apples and mot fresh fruits. This substance is said to be able to limit the fat that is absorbed by the cells. In addition to this , pectin helps in the absorption of watery substances. The reaction of the watery substances on the cells makes it release fat deposits.
Breakfast foods like Oatmeal, skimmed milk and whole grain cereal and even spicy foods containing peppers are considered as foods that burn fat. Oats are a good source of vitamins, minerals and fiber. The capsaicin present in peppers induces the body to produce more stress hormones which in turn revs the metabolic rate burning more calories in the process. Soy is the wonder product, which has chemicals, which help fat from being deposited and also helps to act on the fat deposits in the body by breaking them down. Soybeans enhance the body’s ability to do away with fat.
The juice of garlic or the oil of garlic has the same protective property towards body cells and catalyses the action of getting rid of body fat. Many Indians aware of this fact are mixing their atta with soy flour.
Black Tea, coffee, and green tea also perform the same function. Consuming these foods and doing exercise would increase the metabolic rate of the body. Since the metabolism is boosted and the foods themselves are deficit in calories, the energy and fat that is stored in the body help in the digestion process. In short such foods take longer to digest and require more energy to break them down. These foods are often termed as negative calorie foods. Such foods often contain a lot of water, high percentage of fiber and are low in fat.
Water has always been in the news. Not only is it a natural product, which suppresses appetite, flushes toxins and excess sodium, but is also known to have contributed to an increase in the metabolic rate. The liquids and solids present in soup is also said to have the same properties. Low fat yogurt has been touted to be a rich source of calcium, which helps in weight loss. The bottom line here is that your body has to be taught to burn fat efficiently.
Good Luck!!

Yes, there are foods that help burn fat. There are also tricks to eating in a way that makes you lose fat.
1. Eat 5-6 small meals a day instead of 2-3 big ones. Each meal should be a portion (size of your palm or fist) of protein and a portion of carbs, plus 2-3 vegetables a day. This trick stabilizes your blood sugar and keeps your metabolism up.
2. Eat more in the morning than in the evening. Ideally, your biggest meal is breakfast, and each meal gets smaller throughout the day from there.
3. Drink more water. Your urine should be clear all day, except first thing in the morning. If your urine is clear, your kidneys are properly hydrated, so they can filter your blood fulltime. This frees up your liver to do its other job: metabolizing fat!
4. Eat more fiber. Fiber makes you feel full longer, stabilizes blood sugar, and therefore keeps your metabolism high. Look for the word "whole" in your bread, tortillas, cereal, and pasta (whole grains have all three parts of the grain: the bran, the germ, and the endosperm. These work together for maximum fat-burning). Also, eat fruits, vegetables, brown rice, oatmeal, beans, and nuts.
5. Drink green tea.
6. Don't eat 3 hours before bedtime.
7. Don't eat 3 hours before or an hour after you work out. Low blood sugar maximizes fat burning.
8. When you're hungry, drink a glass of water or eat a handful of nuts. Both function as great appetite suppressants.
9. Don't overdo a diet. You shouldn't ever try to lose more than 2 pounds a week. Any more than that, and your body will fight back and resist fatloss — or worse, will burn muscle instead of fat, and then you'll just look flabby. Here's a calorie calculator: http://www.freedieting.com/tools/calorie_calculator.htm
As for your ab fat, sorry. There's no such thing as spot reduction. Your fat comes off one whole body layer at a time. What you can do to make your stomach look better is perform ab exercises, so at least your muscle wall is straight. Here's a whole blog about lower abs:
