Diets To Burn Fat Faster!
When it comes to structuring your bodybuilding diets for maximum fat loss, nothing can take the place of a solid nutritional strategy. Without a doubt, it’s absolutely critical to your success that you learn and implement the basic fat loss principles into your weight loss program before you ever consider trying out advanced fat burning techniques.
In order to burn fat and gain muscle, you will be walking a fine line between consuming too few (no muscle mass increase) and too many calories (more body fat).
In order to get moving in the right direction apply the following tips to your bodybuilding diets today…
1.) An easy way to target fat loss while still focusing on adding lean muscle mass, is to simply multiply your current body weight by 10.
2.) A more complex (but far more accurate) method for determining how many calories to eat for maximum fat loss results, is to calculate your Resting Metabolic Rate and convert it into a predicted Total Daily Energy Expenditure. Once you know the numbers, you simply target between 250 and 500 calories fewer per day.
3.) Drink a minimum of 1 gallon of water each day.
4.) Eat 6 smaller meals spaced out every 2.5 to 3 hours through out the day. Each meal should consist of carbohydrates, lean protein and some dietary fat. To figure out how many total calories each meal should consist of simply divide your target caloric intake by 6.
5.) Eat a minimum of 1 gram of high quality muscle building protein per pound of body weight per day. This is a sensible goal for building and maintaining lean muscle mass. While it is not necessary to go overboard with protein consumption, it is absolutely essential for muscle growth.
6.) After you calculate your target protein intake for each day, divide it by 6. This is the amount of protein you should be eating each meal in order to build lean muscle mass and burn fat.
7.) Consume no more than 40 grams of high quality fat each day. While some animal based fats are found in lean protein sources, try to limit your intake of artery clogging animal fats.
8.) After you have calculated you protein and fat intake for each day, fill in the rest of the calories from a mixture of high quality low glycemic carbohydrates.
