5 Effective Ways To Improve Weight Loss

According to experts a lot of people experience boredom in training (or training plateau) either during their early weight loss efforts or when they are given a fitness program that requires long workouts. If you are in a situation like this, you need to do something quick to recovery fading interest.

First, if you have long workout routines and you are starting to get bored, consider shifting to shorter workouts that can deliver the same or greater results. Fitness programs have already reached a new level and workouts are now shorter and more effective.

To speed up weight loss but keep your interest intact, try these five ways to improve weight loss:

(1) Spend time under the sun. When you have time, work out in the outdoors and spend time under direct sunlight because it will not only give you the great health benefits of free vitamin D from the sun (which has no overdose) it also reduces your stress and tension. And aside from the fact that sunlight is a good stress-reliever, it also improves your muscle strength; relieves body aches; reduces respiratory infection; and regulates blood pressure while you enjoy fresh air and nature.

(2) Use your ancient genes. Human genes haven’t changed much since the ancient times, but the way we eat today has changed a lot. There were records showing that our ancestors ate in small portions coming from natural and seasonal foods that grew on the earth. And they ate variety of foods which could have led to a balanced nutrition and longer life span. But what’s important about eating in small portions is that while you savor the food you eat, you are also helping your brain and stomach communicate with each other properly. It usually takes around 20 minutes before your stomach can signal your brain that you have eaten enough.

(3) Avoid frustrations in workout. Determine the best time of the day for your workout where your body and mind is most active. It is especially motivating if you can exercise together with a group for added thrill and support. And also don’t forget your pre-workout nutrition to have enough energy to carry out your exercises, because without energy, your workout experience will be hard. And when you can, take time with your friends and loved ones – laugh and have fun. Share also your progress in training and I’m sure you’ll feel more motivated after receiving compliments from them.

(4) Exert more effort. Something good and new is always interesting to the human mind. Pushing yourself a little more whether if it's walking in a faster pace, adding another kilometer to your jogging, adding one more workout set, or reducing rest period will keep your body and mind stimulated at the same time you are building stronger muscles that will help increase metabolism for a faster weight loss. But do this gradually, like making changes after 2-4 weeks of doing the same exercises or when you feel stronger.

(5) Gradually change your eating habits. For best results, you should follow the meal plans listed in your fitness program (if you have one) but if you have difficulty in changing your eating habits, make changes gradually. The adjustment to everything, from exercise to healthy diet, could be too much. So, changing one food at a time is a good approach. And when you start to like healthy foods, you will also start to dislike junk food.
