The Fastest Way To Lose Weight Is A Zen Approach
Do you want to know what the fastest way to lose weight is? I’m sure 99% of you are answering not just yes, but “HECK YES!”
In this article, I will reveal the absolute fastest way a person can lose weight and still be healthy and retain a semblance of sanity. But first, here’s a little background information on weight loss.
Weight loss is extremely complex. It’s not just a matter of eating less, and exercising more. Many of you can attest to that.
There are other mechanisms at work within the body that slow your weight loss down, and some even stop it altogether.
Your body doesn’t want to lose weight. I doesn’t like it. On the contrary, your body wants to survive, and it equates any efforts to starve it, or to exercise it excessively as undue stress.
The body releases a hormone called cortisol when it becomes stressed. This hormone causes the body to store fat, and catabolize muscle. Essentially, by doing the things you’ve been told will help you lose weight, you’re actually causing yourself to retain, or even gain fat. This is especially true if you follow the more gimmicky or faddish ways promising to be fast ways to lose weight.
In reality, the fastest way to lose weight is not through starvation diets, or by performing marathon cardio sessions.
The true fastest way to lose weight is by adopting scientifically proven fat loss workout routines, and combine that with equally proven extreme fat loss diets.
The workout routines I’m referring to elicit a metabolic and hormonal response within the body that cause you to continue burning fat for up to 38 hours after your workout is over. The types of fat loss workout routines I’m talking about are based on the Tabata method, and HITT (High Intensity Interval Training).
Both of these training methods have been proven to melt the fat like nothing else. When you unite that with an extreme fat loss diet like Fat Fast, or the more modern Velocity Diet, then you have an extremely powerful fat loss combination that can’t be beat. It truly is the fastest way to lose weight.
If they’re so powerful, then why don’t more people know about Tabata, HIIT, the Fat Fast Diet, or the Velocity Diet? It’s simple. It’s because they’re not overnight guarantees, they’re not “lose weight while sitting on your couch,” and they’re definitely not a pill you can take. It’s actually hard work, and no one is writing articles, or filming infomercials about something that requires real work, and can’t be bottled.
Tabatas and HIIT are the most intense workouts on the planet. Fat Fast and the Volicity Diet are extreme, low calorie, high protein, high fat, low carb diets that no one can realistically hope to stay on for any length of time.
In short, the fastest way to lose weight is also one of the toughest, meant only for the strong willed. What’s the average person, with average will supposed to do?
You have to rethink what “fastest way to lose weight” really means to you. You have to ask yourself a different question, “what is the fastest way I can lose weight?”
Once you ask the question, you have to give yourself an honest response.
Imagine you’re on the Velocity Diet but you find it too difficult to stick to and you give up after a week. You’re now thinking that you’re a failure. What about the super intense Tabata or HIIT workouts? After the first few, most people give up because they’re so painful to do. Once again you’ll start thinking of yourself as a failure.
When you have this negative mind-set, you’ll be less likely to stick to anything, or even try anything else. You’ve given up. How do you keep from letting negativity poison and thwart your fat loss efforts?
The answer is the Zen approach. Buddhists believe in something called the “middle way,” which is the practice of non-extremism. By using the middle way, you’ll make more progress than you would if you tried an extreme approach and failed.
To incorporate the Zen approach to fat loss, you perform some form of Tabata, or HIIT workouts a couple times per week. Choose two non-consecutive days such as Tuesday and Thursday, or Monday and Wednesday. You also throw in a Fat Fast, or Velocity style diet every other day. The way that works is you diet one day, then you eat normally (but still healthy) the next. Knowing that a regular meal is coming the next day will keep you on track during your diet days.
That’s the middle way to rapid fat loss.
Obviously, the person who can do Tabatas and/or HIIT 4 times per week and does a strict Fat Fast, or Velocity Diet every day of the week is going to lose weight super fast. But for the rest of us mere mortals, the “middle way” is a more reasonable approach, and the fastest way to lose weight for us.
