What's the secret to lose weight for free? Is it a mystery beyond the pyramids, UFO's, ghostly appearances, or the missing sock? When people look in the mirror to see their fat self it may seem to be. But it's pretty simple. Here are some ideas.
Come down with an extreme illness. As long as you get better, serious illness is a great way to shed pounds. Sick today, thin tomorrow as they say. It sounds silly, and it is silly. So forget it.
Calorie deprivation is a great method to lose weight. That means consuming less calories than you burn. Drink nothing but water to force your body to draw on fat reserves. If you have the constitution to keep this up for a whole year, you're set. Seriously, though, eating less than you burn is the way to go. It shouldn't be as extreme as only water for meals, but drinking water instead of juices and soda would save the average person about 90,000 calories over the course of a year, that's 25 pounds worth of calories. So cut down on portions and drink the water, not the koolaid.
Exercise every day until complete exhaustion. That means don't stop until you can't even crawl. Remember those Moses movies? Did you ever see a fat slave working on those pyramids? We don't build pyramids any more but we can exercise, in moderation. It doesn't have to be hours and hours of torture every day, but 30 minutes of aerobic exercise seven days a week is terrific. If you can't keep it up for seven days a week then six is better than five and five is better than four and even one is more than none.
Bigger muscles mean a faster metabolism and more calorie burningBodybuilders burn more calories just standing around. So hire a personal trainer, preferably one that really dislikes you, and have them push you to at least three hours a day, seven days a week of gut wrenching muscle building. Become the world's strongest man. Of course, in the real world weight training doesn't have to be to the level of a marine drill instructor. Ok, so really just weight train in moderation. 3-5 days a week of weight work to build lean muscle will help keep off the pounds. Muscle does mean a higher metabolism, and in the long term it means less work because you're burning more calories even while doing nothing.
Insanity isn't needed to shed pounds. It doesn't take a lot of cash, or any money. Lose weight for free with diet and exercise. Consume less calories than you use.
