Dieters Slim May Be A Little Misleading

Though it is what they want to do Slimming should not be so hard yet there are literally thousands if not millions that could do with shedding a few pounds of unwanted fat. This is personal to me as I have gained and lost many pounds over the years with the help of diets, tonics, programs and even the dreaded exercises.

What does a dieter need to slim?

The most important thing I found I needed to lose weight was a mental picture of what I wanted to look like. This I constantly kept in my mind all the time. It was never exact just really a thought I would think like; " I am trim or I am light or even I look great and thin". Then I had to choose a diet. The truth is there are many many diets that would help anyone slim out there. We all know just by being slimmer it has a great anti aging effect on us. You just need to investigate them to see if they fit into your life and plans and will actually work for you specifically.

What types of diets have worked for you. Please share diets that managed to get you slim so others might find them and benefit.

Flat Stomach Exercises Are High Intensity Exercises

By Jose Loni

Flat stomach exercises can be defined as anaerobic high intensity exercises. Spot reducing does not work when it comes to getting a flat stomach. Anaerobic training is the fastest way to achieving ripped abs. Increasing your metabolism by incorporating interval sets into our exercise program and training with greater frequency will give you a flat stomach.

Spot reduction does not work. Training the abs will not give you ripped abs. To get a flat stomach, you must train the whole body and burn fat. When you burn the fat throughout the body and the belly, the abdominal muscles under the fat will be more visible.

Anaerobic exercises cause an oxygen debt, which is a lack of oxygen in the muscles of the body. The increased exercise activity increases the amount of carbon dioxide and lactic acid in the muscles. When the body is resting, the body is quickly trying to get oxygen into the muscles to nourish, repair and clear the waste products in the muscles. As a result, the muscle metabolic activity is increased and needs to expend more energy to function.

When the intensity of the activity is decreased or removed, the body is better able to replenish oxygen into the muscles to repair and nourish. The increased metabolic activity requires more energy to function and helps remove waste products from the muscles.

Interval set training also creates an oxygen debt situation in the muscles. This causes the body to really increase its metabolic activity to keep providing energy to the increased physical activity, thereby increasing overall fat burning.

The muscles increase in size and become more active requiring more energy to function. This increased function will burn more energy, thereby increasing the body's fat burning capacity and helps get rid of the excess body fat.

With increased training frequency, the body will be better able to provide energy to its muscles as well as become efficient at burning fat. The increased lean body mass that occurs also helps to keep a regular schedule of metabolic activity to keep the body burning fat.
