Secret Fat Burning Strategies Of A Napa Boot Camp

Since I'm a Napa boot camp instructor I'm constantly being asked how to lose weight fast and get in fantastic shape. But honestly, there are so many different strategies out there that practically everyone can use to reach their goals, but for those who I train, I'll keep things super simple and very basic. With all the crazy strategies and all the fitness nuts out there in can be really confusing when it comes to finding a direct and simple action plan to get the best results possible. I want to share with you some of my favorite fat burning strategies in a simple and direct way so you can achieve your goals.

Use High Intensity Interval Training - It's crazy that we've been imprinted with the notion that running at a slow pace for a long time will actually get us into the fantastic shape and will have the fat melting off of your bodies. The real secret to doing cardio is to crank up the intensity so that your heart rate is cranking and this will have a much higher metabolic cost than doing the boring steady state cardio stuff we've all been doing.

It's a funny thing too, I read that by doing this specific type of training you can actually keep burning calories up to 38 hours after you workout, but with doing the old school style cardio you wouldn't burn any after working out.

Stay Away From Sugars And White Flour - Eating a healthy meal with whole grains and whole wheat is much better for regulating your blood sugar levels than eating sugar and white flour. Having a good balance of blood sugar is vital to keeping your insulin levels in a good homeostasis. Instead of eating white pasta for dinner try substituting it for whole wheat pasta which will be much healthier. Also look to get rid of the white flour breads such as sourdough for your sandwiches and replace them with whole wheat or rye breads.

Eat Breakfast Every Morning - Ignoring breakfast is one of the biggest pet peeves I've found to be out there when it comes to nutrition. It's actually the best thing for people to crank up their metabolism and give them the energy they need to get through the day. Drinking a cup of coffee isn't going to be enough, next time try stove cooking some oatmeal and slicing some bananas into it. The fiber in the oatmeal will make you full and you'll also give yourself some vital healthy carbohydrates to fuel your mind and your body.

Just to make things clear, these tips are designed to go with a great nutrition and work out program. I know from experience as a Napa Personal Trainer that even the littlest changes can make a huge difference, but there is no substitute for having a great nutrition program and working out hard in a gym or a boot camp a few times a week.
