Stay Hungry

When you are in the process of shedding body fat, let yourself stay hungry a bit longer than normal. Not a “lot” longer – or you might go hypoglycemic and terrorize your family!

Just a bit longer. Say… 30 minutes.

When you are slightly hungry, you are burning fat. When you are “starving,” you are beyond that point and burning muscle. It’s a fine line you can walk that really accelerates the fat-burning process… big time.

When I’m working on shedding fat, I practice staying hungry. I fast for several hours before I exercise. It works as long as I take a bit of cream in my coffee and plenty of amino acids.

The sensation of hunger tricks the body into using more of its fat for fuel if you time it just right.

Give it a shot.

  • “If you’re like me, you get very, very bored doing cardio on the treadmill, stationary bike, or whatever your favorite piece of exercise equipment is. Five minutes can feel like hours. The gym has plenty of TVs to try to entertain you while you work out. However, the news is too depressing, watching the food channel only makes me want to eat (definitely defeats the purpose of being at the gym), and the other mindless programs bore me.
