How To Increase Your Metabolism To Burn Arm Fat
Generally speaking, your metabolism is the amount of calories your body burns every day for basic biological functions. Increasing it is a great way to accelerate arm fat burning.
Also keep in mind that your metabolism is mostly under your control. Please do not buy into the outdated argument that you inherit and are stuck with a fast or slow metabolism. You see, nothing could be further from the truth!
Are you ready to take control of your metabolism? Here are 4 tips for taking your metabolism to new heights:
1. Workout early in the morning. Do this, and all the food you eat during the rest of the day will go to your active tissues instead of your arm fat. And your body will burn a surplus of calories throughout the rest of the day. Workout late in the day, and you'll miss out on both of these benefits.
2. Keep your workouts short and to the point. Working out for hours on end is unnecessary, painful and counterproductive. All that's needed is a hard 45 minute workout (30 minutes if you go really hard). The resulting EPOC (exercise post oxygen consumption) will have you burning additional calories 36 hours after the workout, even while you sleep.
3. Sip on water between meals. Dehydration can bring down your metabolism. And in between meals your body becomes dehydrated because it uses stored water to digest food. You can prevent this from happening by drinking small amounts of water in between meals. But don't go overboard or the water will get excreted through your kidneys.
4. Do not drop calories by more than 20%. Do this, and your thyroid will decrease output. Your thyroid controls how fast your metabolism is. You will also produce more fat-producing enzymes. So do not cut calories by too much.
Cutting too many calories does not speed up arm fat loss, it actually slows it down. So please do not go on the all-too-common 1000 calorie diet.
After all, your metabolism has ultimate control over how many calories you burn. And if you burn more calories, you will lose more arm fat. - 17268
