Have you Resolved To Lose Weight In The New Year Yet Again?

If you have made yet another new year resolution to lose weight, it can only mean one of two things. Either you did nothing about it before or what you did, was not effective.

What would you do, if you discovered that there is a way to lose weight that is lasting and that you would never need to make another new year resolution to lose weight? This article is about how to achieve permanent weight loss.

There are some things you need to forget and some things you need to learn, if you want to achieve weight loss that is permanent.

You will need to ignore diets about fast weight loss. You need to turn a blind eye to the latest fad diets. They do not work. If you tried them in the past, they have not been effective for you.

You need to learn to think about fat loss and not weight loss. They are not the same thing. When you lose fat, you lose weight. But when you lose weight, in most cases you dont lose fat. You lose something else.

By concentrating on fat loss, lasting weight loss occurs. Only exercise brings about fat loss.

You need to learn about exercise that brings about fat loss. Exercise for fat loss falls into 2 broad categories. One category is cardio vascular (cv) exercise, which is also called aerobic exercise. The other is strength training, which is also called anaerobic exercise. Both burn fat.

Some example of cv exercise are running, walking at a brisk pace, bicycle riding, and swimming.

Strength training is most effective in bringing about fat loss, because you burn fat all day long - even when you are at rest. You lose more fat faster, when do strength training as your exercise routine.

Your muscles will build from strength training. Your metabolism will increase, because muscle tissue needs more energy than other tissues in your body. The increased metabolic rate results in fat burning, to feed your muscles with the energy they need.

I know that strength training does not appeal to everyone. If it doesnt appeal to you, dont do it. An aerobic exercise routine will give you the fat loss that you want.

Exercise will need to become a part of your life from now on, if you want to achieve permanent weight loss. Your mindset needs to change. People who live an active lifestyle, dont tend to have weight problems.
