George Washington Weight Loss Expert Challenges Weight Loss Myths
The myth that Weight loss is the game of numbers has been taken on by an expert in the field of weight loss. This expert from the George Washington University tells us that for years we have been made to believe that weight loss means loss of body fat. It is a popular myth that loosing weight will automatically make you look good in a bikini. For instance, a beach ball is much lighter than a base ball, but which one would you want your body to be like, soft and pliable like a beach ball or harder and firmer like a baseball?
Honestly speaking a healthy body and good looks is all about the weight composition rather than the weight itself. One can weigh 150 pounds, however if the body fat contributes to 50% of the total body weight then you will most likely, not have a great physique. People will go to an unimaginable extent just to weigh less on the scales but it's a good thing we have a weight loss expert from the George Washington University area who has unveiled the truth about effective weight loss.
It is completely true that the muscle mass determines the metabolic rate of ones body and in turn decides how you look in your swimsuit. Most of the weight loss plans make you weigh less on the scales, however one might not be sure whether it is muscles loss or fat loss. This is a very fundamental mistake which needs to be corrected. One should not loose muscle mass as it helps in burning more calories and makes you look much more fitter in shorts than the fat would. If you loose fat, for example five pounds and in turn gain equal pounds of muscle mass then it would appear as if you have lost 10 pounds, but the weighing scale would not show weight loss.
If you are ready to lose weight in an effective manner do what the experts at many George Washington weight loss centers are now instructing their clients to do, measure your bodily composition. This is easily done in the privacy of your own home with a tape measure. Simply measure yourself consistently and watch for a drop in inches rather than pounds on a scale.
An inch loss in men means the loss of 4-5 pounds of fat whereas in women it means 3-4 pounds. You should aim at maintaining your weight with a uniform inch loss from all parts of the body. To begin with, just measure all the areas and then start building more muscles in your body. Men can just measure their waist since men put on weight mostly on their waist. Women should measure their waist, hips and thighs. The measurement for women should be taken in the following manner:
*Hips- Measurement of hips can be taken while standing with a little distance between your feet which should be same as the hip width. You should take the measurement with the measuring tape placed around the maximum circumference area of your back.
*Thighs- For measurement of thighs, first measure six inches just above the knee and at that point, measure with a tape around the thigh.
*Waist- It can be measured at the same level as the naval.
Ensure that the measurements are taken on a particular day of every week. Also, to ensure accurate results, you should visit the restroom before measurements are taken. This type of measurement will indicate actual fat loss and this practice is followed by almost all of the weight loss centers in the George Washington area. - 17268
