What ingredient contributes more to body fat?

Eating more of which of these will give you more body fat: Fat, Saturated Fat (assuming that both are organic and not trans fats) or carbs?

Because I eat ALOT of fat in my diet, too much probably although its organic (mostly from nuts, sunbutter, and milk, I eat little meat) and I don’t seem to be affected by this. Whenever I eat something low in fat but high in carbs on occassion, I feel a little soggier than I did before.

Why Fat Loss is More Important Than Weight Loss?

Think obese people are unhealthier than slim people? You may be surprise that this may not always be the case, as one of the key factors depends on the fats levels of the person and the location of the fats. A slim person can be equally unhealthy if his/her fats level is high and the majority of the fats are located at the belly, which is considered to be in the “dangerous zone” as belly fat known as visceral fat can raise a person’s risk of diabetes and heart diseases.

Fats loss is therefore more important than weight loss and people should focus on losing fats rather than weights. But how to tell the difference between surplus weight and surplus fats before you can embark on a fats-loss program?

When people become overweight or obese, their fat percentage increase but changes in muscles and bone mass are minimal. Change in bone mass is also unlikely to lead to a drastic increase in weight as a 10% increase in bone mass only lead to an extra 1 to 1.5kg of body weight. Muscles, on the other hand, weighs more than bone mass and fats but unless you exercise and have high muscle mass, for most people, their surplus weight is mainly due to surplus fat.

To find out how much fats you have, a waist test (waistline that goes beyond 40 inch for man and 35 inch for woman is considered unhealthy) or fats test (using calipers or electronic body fat monitors) is a reliable measure of body fat. And if the body fat turns out to be low, then there is no need to loss weight. Otherwise, its time to look at the amount of fats (especially the belly fats) you have and start to do something about it!

Back to the topic of muscles, with good exercises and nutrition, muscle weight can increase drastically. For instance, someone with high muscle mass (eg bodybuilder or sports person) can weight much more than average (ie have a high BMI) but still considered healthy as their fats level is way below what the average person has. So there is no cause of alarm if your weight shots up due to muscle increases, which you can examine easily through looking at the mirror and see if the muscles are tone or flab.

All in all, if your surplus weight is due to muscles, no cause of alarm but if it is due to fats (which is the case for most people), then it is advisable for you to start your fats-loss program for a better health in the long run.

Skip Energy Drinks to Burn More Body Fat From Your Workout

Avoid Sports Drinks Like Gatorade and Energy Drinks Like Red Bull

Do you drink an energy drink before or during your workout? This is a big mistake. I used to think Gatorade was a great idea to give myself energy to workout hard. The problem is that you are getting your energy from an outside source. You are burning sugars in the drink, but what you want to do is burn body fat.

Think of Your Body Fat as “Energy Reserves”

Your body stores fat as a source of emergency fuel. Its primary fuel of choice is from the food you eat. Energy drinks in particular are an effective form of energy, because they contain simple sugars which are quickly used by the body. You body will search for any carbohydrates in your system when you exercise. The only time it will access stored fat is when your primary fuel (your food energy) in completely used up.

Ridding Your Body of Your Primary Source of Energy to Access Body Fat

If you drink a calorie containing sport drink or energy drink, you will need to burn off all of those calories before your body will access your body fat. In my opinion it is best to not drink those calories in the first place! Wouldn’t it be great to burn body fat every minute that you are on the treadmill or exercise bike? Well, if your system is empty of food calories, then that is exactly what will happen!

I Wouldn’t Eat a Single Calorie 4 Hours Before Your Workout

You want to burn off that body fat quickly right? Well, don’t go near any source of calories at all 4 hours leading up to your workout. You will feel a huge difference when you workout. Seriously…you will get a certain feeling in your body when you know you are in the fat burning zone. There is almost a certain look to the muscles when your body is in a low-carb state. I can tell by looking at people if they will be able to burn body fat in their workout. Hint: most people haven’t prepped their bodies properly.

Green Tea is a Great Alternative

If you want a surge of energy without the calories then Green Tea is a great answer. The great thing about green tea is that it is extremely healthy as well. It is a tremendous source of antioxidants which fights the increase in free radicals that is caused by exercise. I like to drink green tea when it is hot, because it seems to warm up my body and work better (this isn’t scientifically proven, it is just my experience). By all means drink green tea, but avoid calorie containing drinks before your workouts. You will love the fat burning results!

Why Measuring Body Fat Is More Important Than Weighing Yourself On The Scale

When people start down the road to a healthier lifestyle, their first concern is most often their weight. After all, popular health news is full of warnings for the additional risks overweight people face, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, heart failure, along with numerous other diseases.

While walking the path to greater health, the dieter will begin making smarter decisions for their overall health and fitness, but their primary concern always circles back to, “How much weight have I lost?” Weight loss is a vital part of ensuring a healthier life style, but it is not the only objective: maintaining a healthy ratio of body fat is just as important.

We’ve been taught since we were children that people come in all shapes and sizes. A very true statement, and one that is most often forgotten when evaluating our own bodies. When people strive to lose weight, they are actually seeking to lose the extra fat their body is carrying so they can present a more attractive figure. The problem arises when people believe that they can lose that fat simply by limiting the quantity of food eaten on a daily basis. Your body needs that food so that when you work on the other half of your diet regular exercise there are calories available to burn.

A person can be at a “normal” weight and still have excessive fat, or vice versa, they can be overweight without having an excessively high ratio of body fat. When you weigh yourself, you do not take into account what your bone structure may be like or what your muscle composition is compared to your body fat. You may think that you are overweight, but you may just need to work on reducing your body fat and replacing it with healthy muscle mass.

Dieting alone will likely just remove weight through the purging of water from your muscles. Adding in regular exercise will target the fat that you really want to lose. If you lose water weight but not fat, you will not be able to maintain your smaller structure for a long period of time. Lose fat instead, and the pounds will stay off.

Body fat is measured as a percentage of your total weight. For men, 18% and under is considered to be healthy. While for women, who biologically have a far different body structure, your body fat should be maintained at a level of 25% or less. For either gender, a body fat composition over 35% is considered obese.

Athletes commonly have the lowest percentage of body fat, but low body fat can be just as dangerous as high body fat, besides needing some cushion to protect our fragile bones from injury, a body fat percentage of less than 5% for men and 12% for women can be indicative of an eating disorder and can lead to increased instances of illness.

The smart dieter will either buy their own body fat analysis equipment or have a test performed by their trainer at the gym or by their family physician. There are Body Mass Index (BMI) calculators available on the internet that will estimate your body fat percentage based upon weight versus height, but because of differences in bone structure, this is not a reliable test.

More reliable tests of body fat include comparing measurements of different parts of your body with your overall weight, health and age; using calipers to measure skinfold thickness; or using under water weighing techniques. You may use the Bio-electrical impedance test, which calculates body fat by measuring the length of time it takes a signal to pass between your hands or feet, though it tends to be fairly inaccurate.

By combining a healthier diet with regular exercise you can reduce your body fat percentage to a healthier level while presenting a newer, slimmer you. Forget about your scale, it lies. Instead, maintain a chart of your body fat percentage taken at intervals during your diet, and you will find that as you make progress, you will feel better, look better and will enjoy a healthier future!
