Gaining
weight can often be quite a slow process. For the majority of
folks, it is just a matter of adding one pound here, another
pound there and before you realize what has happened you are
walking around wearing 10 extra, unwanted pounds. Considering
this fact, almost everyone at one time or another desires to
shed that dreaded 10 pounds.
Losing
10 pounds is a realistic goal for just about anyone and can
be achieved by a few simple little changes in diet along with
increasing physical activity. Most people get very little or
no exercise due to their busy schedules, so even a small amount
of exercise done regularly should enable you to achieve visible
results. For those of us that do not have time to exercise a
lot, we can maximize the effectiveness of the exercise that
we actually do get by conducting it first thing in the morning.
You can lose 10 pounds
more easily by exercising during the morning for two major reasons.
The first reason is that it is much easier to fit morning exercise
into your regular daily routine. A key to losing weight is consistency,
which is hard for many people because they have trouble making
regular time to exercise. Because there are few distractions
in the morning, it is an ideal time to exercise. By starting
your day a bit earlier you are really making time to fit in
an exercise routine.
Secondly, morning
exercise is more effective because you are burning calories
from fat that is already in your system, based on the fact that
you do not eat anything prior to exercising. This is where losing
those 10 pounds begins. When you exercise your body, it normally
burns both carbohydrates and fats and now this is where it gets
somewhat more complicated. Your body's main, preferred energy
source is carbohydrates so that when you exercise you will burn
carbohydrates first and then your body dips into its reserves
of fat.
Your meals provide
carbohydrates so if you exercise at a normal time of day your
body will have a great deal of carbohydrates to burn off. When
attempting to lose 10 pounds, however, you really want to burn
fat. By exercising in the morning on an empty stomach, you burn
energy at a time when the carbohydrate levels in your body are
at their lowest, thus you will burn more fat with the identical
amount of exercise. Studies have been performed that suggest
that in excess of 250% more fat is burned when you exercise
your body in this state.
There is no immediate,
instant gratification method designed for you to lose 10 pounds.
In the long run, losing weight necessitates intelligent dietary
decisions coupled with an effective exercise routine. But if
you exercise in the morning, you will give yourself a definite
advantage in the battle to shed 10 pounds. You will be privy
to the physiological as well as practical advantage of performing
your exercise without distractions when your day first begins.
