3 Steps To Lose Back Fat Forever

To lose back fat quickly and permanently you have to get serious! It's no use jumping onto another 'quick-fix' diet regime - losing the fat and then piling it all back on (and more) as soon as you revert back to your old habits. It is time to change your lifestyle, your habits and your body shape forever. If I can, so can you and it's a lot less difficult than you think. Let me show you 3 of the most important steps to lose back fat fast.

1. Change your nutritional habits.

To lose back fat all three of these steps are vital, but if there is one which I would cite as most important it would be this first one. Eating the right foods more often than not will result in dramatic fat-loss in a relatively short period of time. Western diets tend to be full of sugar and processed foods, these need to be cut out (or at least cut back) right away. Ditch the sodas, cakes and sweets and be wary of consuming too many 'bad' carbohydrates such as white bread, breakfast cereals and French fries. Look to avoid fried foods altogether and instead use healthier methods of cooking such as baking.

Increase your fibre intake slowly but surely, this will help avoid excess gas. Fibre is the indigestible part of fruits, vegetables and whole-grain foods which acts as a sponge when it combines with water during digestion. It cleanses your intestines and helps food move through the body more quickly and with greater efficiency. Add more protein to your diet, protein helps build and maintain and repair muscle tissue which is essential for quality fat burning as it helps increase the body's metabolism by burning more calories and therefore you will lose back fat faster.

2. Start on a regular exercise routine.

Beginning a program of regular exercise will help boost metabolism and increase your energy levels. You will feel healthier and burn more fat. I definitely recommend incorporating weight lifting routines into your weekly exercise workouts. Muscle burns more calories than fat and for every 1lb of lean muscle mass your body has you burn as much as 50 calories per day just to maintain it, thus creating a fat burning metabolism which helps you lose back fat quicker and easier.

Ditch the long, slow cardio workouts and replace them with highly intense interval type training. This promotes muscle retention and helps your body burn fat even after exercise. Also, don't over-do it! The is no point in working out for hours and hours each day, your body will only get tired and use muscle to fuel your workouts. An hour 3-4 days per week is fine, this gives your body a chance to recover and grow. Rest is as important as exercise if you want to lose back fat!

3. Reduce your stress levels.

This final step is so often overlooked but is nonetheless essential. To lose back fat stress levels must be reduced. Persons with elevated stress levels often produce hormones such as cortisol which can make fat-loss very difficult. If you can combine a quality diet with regular exercise and an optimal amount of sleep then you will see a huge reduction in stress levels and a massive boost in energy. Lowering stress levels will help you achieve any weight-loss goals you may have much quicker and also reduce the risk of developing serious health problems.
