How do you strip the fat from your body to reveal your muscles?

Next time you go out, take a look around at the body shapes of the people in your community. You'll find that there's a bit of a theme. People these days are overweight.

So how do you get over this tendency of our bodies to put on this extra weight? Well, it's because we've got it so good that we no longer need to exercise so much! That's kinda cool, but it's not helping our health or appearance. So How do we do it without supplements and surgery?

Building Muscle Tips - You'll Learn How To Strip The Fat Like The Professionals

OK, here's how it's done:

Strip That Fat Step 1. Start a weight lifting program. Don't worry, you won't turn into a bodybuilder over night. You'd have to eat like a bodybuilder if you want to gain the massive amount's of muscle those guys posess. Muscles burn twice as much energy in your body as fat cells do, so they're a great advantage to burning fat. Lift weights 2-3 times a week and you'll start noticing your metabolism speeding up. You'll start to eat more because you're hungry. This is good! You're gonna need this muscle to help your metabolism kick into overdrive!

Step 2. Don't do aerobic exercise. Yep, you heard me DON'T do it. You've got to be mad right? Everyone says do aerobic exercise so you'll burn fat, so it must be true. Nope. Well, it is, sort of. But it's not the most effective way so lets get to it.

What do you do instead? Well, you know how muscle burns more energy than fat right? Well, you can also put your body into a fat burning mode by doing Short and intense cardio exercises. This is similar to say going for a jog, or riding a bike for an hour, except you take all that effort, and put it into 15 minutes! This is commonly called interval training or High Intensity Training.

Here's how it works:

High Intensity Interval Training, or Fartlek, is a training session divided into 2 parts. One intense, and the other less intense.

Here's an example of interval training:

# Stretches

# 5 min warmup

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 5 min cooldown

# Stretches

The great thing about this kind of workout is that you'll speed up your body so much that you'll be burning excess energy for ages! And it takes only 15 minutes! It's honestly the BEST way to strip that fat from your body quickly. Bodybuilders have known this for ages.

If you're already training 3 days a week, do this cardio training on your OFF days only. The reason why is because your body simply does not know how to burn fat and build muscle at the same time. Alternate between the 2 so you can get the best of both worlds. And remember, take a day off. Nothing worse than burn out when you're doing so well.

Anything else? Sure is... just one more thing:

Building Muscle Tips - Step 3. Eat Your Vegetables!

I'm not going to get into the whole calorie argument and talk about how confusing it is to have to read all the food labels. Let's just be serious for a second. If you want to get the fat from your body it's not going to happen eating burgers and fries. You know it. So what do you eat? Well, your best option is to eat food that's got plenty of nutritional value and helps keep your body and metabolism moving. What's the best food to do that? Fruit and vegetables.

Yeah, it's a bummer eh. You've been hearing it since you were a kid. "Eat Your Vegetables!" Turns out your parents were right eh. Well, I'm not about to tell em so don't worry!

If you're feeling a little uncomfortable and you're not in a major hurry, then adjust to adding more fruits and vegetables to your diet while cutting out the heavy carbohydrates like fries and burgers and that morning muffin with your coffee etc.

As you change your diet, and work out with heavier weights, your body will change. So...

1. Start doing weights workouts

2. Do Interval Training to burn fat

3. Eat Plenty of Fresh Fruit and Vegetables

Your body will thank you for it!
