Break Your Weight Loss Plateau
How to Break Your Plateau Today is a typical morning like any other for you. You get up, go for your workout at the gym or go for a nice run, before you start your day. Or maybe you go from work to the gym to jump on the treadmill for 40 minutes then home. No matter when you fit your workout in, you are to be commended you've stuck to it. SO why isn't the weight coming off like it did when you first started your new workout routine. Everything is the same. Cardio 3 to 5 days a week. Weight training 2 to 3 days a week. Your diet is still in tack (despite the PMS breakdown in the chocolate abyss). If you are still doing everything the same and you can't seem to drop those last 10 lbs then you can't drop those last 10 lbs because you are still doing everything the same. (I know I just reverse the sentence but read it again and you'll catch on if you didn't the first time.) Your body is a wonderfully efficient machine. Everything from your head to your toes adapt to your environment, your activities and your lifestyle. Your exercise regimen is no different. Here is the scenario. Your Story... You began the new year with a new found dedication to running. After all, you need to drop those extra pounds. So you go for a 45 minute run 5 days a week and weight train in the gym 2 times a week. In January and February the pounds fell off. You consistently left 2 even 4 lbs some weeks, chocking on your dust as you laughed your way all the way to the clothing store. But here we are in April and the scale hasn't moved since the beginning of March. What happened' Your Body's Story' When you began your program, your body worked hard to keep up with the new intensity and duration of your exercise regimen. As a result it burned energy (calories/fat) to keep up. Then one day as it accompanied you out the door and began picking up speed, then it said to it's self. Oh I've done this plenty of times before. In fact I am good. I am so good at this now that instead of burning 200 calories on this run, I can do the same run and only burn 150 calories. So it runs with you and indeed it proved that it could do the same activity and burn less calories doing it. Your body has succeeded in doing what it does best...become efficient. Ah ha! Eureka! Now you know. So what to do about it. Throw your body a surprise party and call it Cross training. Cross training is a great way to condition different muscle groups, develop a new set of skills, and reduce boredom that creeps in after months of the same exercise routines. The term cross training refers to a training routine that involves several different forms of exercise, and/or exercise intensity levels. Get up tomorrow and instead of running for 45 minutes, jump on the bike and take a spin. Instead of doing 45 minutes of a moderate intensity run. Kick it up a notch and do 20 minutes of intense interval training (fartlek run will do as well) Providing different challenges in a workout forces the body to move out of its comfort zone and the body must work harder to complete the activity? Resulting in more calorie burn. More eating the dust off from the bottom of your shoes as you leave those pound behind. But that's not the only benefit of cross training. If sports are your passion cross training can actually help you prevent injury and overuse syndrome. For most sports enthusiasts, cross-training is a beneficial training method for maintaining a high level of overall fitness and that's not all Cross Training Reduces exercise boredom Allows you to be flexible about you training needs and plans (if the pool is closed, you can go for a run instead). Produces a higher level of all around conditioning Conditions the entire body, not just specific muscle groups Reduces the risk of injury Work some muscles while others rest and recover Can continue to train while injured Improves your skill, agility and balance Mubarakah Ibrahim is an AFAA certified personal trainer and owner of BALANCE fitness, a personal training service for women in CT that offers in-home personal training, on-line personal training, outdoor boot camps, and hiking clubs for women.

I have been on diet forums for years, have consulted thousands of people on low carb diets, and I am seeing it again and again. People don't know how to implement a low carb diet. Very often people fail to lose weight or to adapt to the low carb life style. Many people give it up after a couple of days because they don't know how to do it right. The Atkins Diet is the most famous low carb diet, but it is full of pitfalls just waiting for you to walk into. Take Anything... Just Leave My Coffee Alone!

How to Gain More Pleasure While Losing Weight It's easy to lose sight of our goals, "Do I eat one of these delicious looking, fruit engorged, glossy, sugar coated lovelies or ... that other thing.

From diet books, free low carb diet plans, online dieting sites, and thousands of low carb recipes, low carb diets have produced favorable results for millions of overweight people. Along with the Atkins Diet and the South Beach diet, there are many other low carb diet plans. The Suzanne Sommers Diet and The Zone Diet are popular choices as well, each promising to be more effective than the other. Each of these diet plans includes recipes, menus, and helpful diet tips designed to help you lose weight quickly and maintain your weight loss. If you are considering beginning a low carb diet, keep in mind that each low carb diet plan allows for differing amounts of carbohydrates that you may consume. Some allow little to no carbohydrates and others allow for only certain types of carbohydrates. You will find hundreds to thousands of low carb recipes and meal plans. Switching to a low carb lifestyle is not the answer if bread, potatoes, and pasta are staples in your diet. If you can live without these types of foods, low carb may be the perfect diet plan for you. Low carb recipes limit the amount of carbohydrates you consume while allowing you to enjoy a variety of foods. There are delicious recipes available that are sure to please your entire family and limit the number of carbohydrate grams you are eating at the same time. The South Beach program allows for a gradual increase in carbohydrates as your body adjusts to your new eating habits. The South Beach Diet is somewhat less restrictive than The Atkins Diet. The Zone Diet and The Suzanne Sommers Diet stress not only a low carb lifestyle, but also combining certain foods to increase your body's fat burning ability. Other less well-known low carb diet plans may be just as effective for you as the more famous diet plans. Beginning a low carb diet and lifestyle will require discipline and determination, but can be very helpful in your quest to lose weight.
