10 FITNESS & NUTRITION TIPS PARA SA MGA BEGINNERS!

Kaibigan, ngayon mo pa lang ba napagdesisyunang simulan ang pag-achieve sa iyong fitness and weight loss goals?

At bilang beginner, nahihirapan ka kung saan at paano magsisimula?

‘Wag ka nang mag-alala! We got your back!

Narito ang ilang fitness and nutrition tips para sa mga beginners na tulad mo! Halika at alamin na natin! ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ˜‰

1. Nobody in the gym is judging how much weight you can lift. Everyone is too focused on themselves.

2. If you don’t understand something, ask somebody who does.

3. Results don’t happen overnight. Take things very slowly and stop looking for shortcuts.

4. Don’t be embarrassed to log your progress and take photos of yourself. It will help so much.

5. What you see in the mirror is not what everyone else sees. You are by far your own worst critic.

6. You can still make progress without the scale moving. Don’t get too hung up on your weight.

7. Focus on using correct form. Trying to use heavier weights with terrible form is only going to set you back.

8. Tracking macros is a great tool to help you get started, but it’s not necessary.

9. What works for someone else might not work for you. Pave your own path.

10. Always remember that there is more to life than working out & dieting. Don’t let them take away from what is truly important to you.

Step #4

Quarter

Revisit the 14-Day B Lean Challenge every quarter to reach the next level in your body composition and performance and repeat steps 1-4.

ALIGN YOUR CARB INTAKE WITH YOUR WEIGHT GOALS

CARB INTAKE IS THE DECISIVE FACTOR IN WEIGHT LOSS AND DISEASE PREVENTION!

300+ grams of Carbs per day

Danger Zone of average American Diet.

All but the most extreme exercisers will tend to produce excessive insulin and store excessive fat over the years at this intake level. Increases risk for obesity, Metabolic Syndrome and type 2 diabetes.

150-300 grams of Carbs per day

Insidious Weight Gain Zone.

Most health conscious eaters and unsuccessful dieters end up here, due to frequent intake of sugar and grain products (breads, pastas, cereals – even whole grains). Despite trying to “do the right thing” (minimize fat, cut calories), people can still gain an average of 1.5 pounds of fat every year for decades.

100-150 grams of Carbs per day

This is the Maintenance zone. Effortless Weight Maintenance.

Once you’ve arrived at your goal or ideal body composition, you can maintain it quite easily here while enjoying abundant vegetables, healthy fats and moderate quality proteins with 1-2 servings of fruits/starches per day and occasional BP treats.

50-100 grams of Carbs per day

Sweet Spot for Weight Loss after the 14-day B Lean Challenge.

Steadily drop excess body fat by minimizing insulin production. Enables 1-2 pounds per week of fat loss with satisfying, minimally restrictive BP meals and sensible treats.

0-50 grams of Carbs per day

Excellent catalyst for rapid fat loss through Bulletproof Intermittent Fasting and Ketosis.

This is the zone for the 14-day B Lean Challenge where you can safely lose up to 1 pound of fat per day.

5 PARAAN PARA SA LIGTAS NA PAGBABAWAS NG TIMBANG, ALAMIN!

Sa pagbabawas ng weight, dapat hindi lang ang bisa at husay ang tinitignan at isinasaalang-alang kundi ang kaligtasan din ng bawat isa. Sa blog post na ito, aming ibibigay ang mga paraan upang matiyak ang kaligtasan ng bawat isa habang nasa proseso ng pagpapapayat at pagbabawas ng timbang. ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ‘‡

1. SPEAK TO YOUR DOCTOR OR A DIETITIAN

These professionals can assess your weight and health risks and help you to set realistic and safe goals, and create a specialized plan that will meet your needs, tastes and lifestyle.

2. STAY AWAY FROM SUPPLEMENTS

Many dietary supplements sold for fast and easy weight loss are mostly unproven and make claims that they cannot back up. And just because it’s a natural health supplement, doesn’t mean it’s safe, as most are not regulated or tested by the FDA.

3. SLOW AND STEADY WINS THE RACE

Experts advise that safe weight loss is between one to two pounds a week. Such slow progress might appear discouraging to some, but it is safe and most important sustainable. Rapid weight loss has side effects, which are exacerbated the longer you stay on the diet. These range from gallstones and malnutrition to fatigue and hair loss, and the slower you lose weight, the less likely you are to put it back on.

4. AVOID YO-YO DIETING OR WEIGHT CYCLING

You lose weight rapidly, only to put it back on again, so you go back on another diet, and the cycle repeats, for many people this happens numerous times throughout their lives. Research links yo-yo dieting to a reduction in HDL “good” cholesterol and other health problems.

5. BALANCE IS THE KEY

Many dietitians advise that cutting out an entire food group, like carbs, can be harmful to your health, and you will miss out on many vitamins, minerals and fiber and your body will start looking for energy elsewhere.
