TRAINING FOR FAT LOSS:
Discover the best way to burn off unwanted body fat, through exercise
Let’s face it – your body wants you to be fat! But, while a healthy body needs some fat which contains essential nutrients, you don’t need copious amounts of it.
Your body uses dietary fat to make tissue and manufacture bio-chemicals, such as hormones. Fats in your diet are sources of energy that add flavour to food or sauce for your pie for example, but fat surrounding your organs (visceral fat) can be hazardous to your health. There’s a big difference between necessary, nutrient containing fat; having a bit extra around the belly and being morbidly obese. The fact is – excessive fat is a very real health hazard!

Give your body quick hits:
We’re led to believe that regular long, slow sessions of exercise – whether bike riding, swimming, running, rowing or sport training – is the way to get thin, but in fact to burn fat efficiently, you need to work in short, sharp bursts whether by doing cardio, weights or sport practice. This causes your body to burn more calories = fat. Think of your body like a car – it burns fuel effectively when travelling at a steady speed, but it burns more fuel when forced to continually slow down, stop and speed up again.
