South Beach Diet

Re: South Beach Diet

generally, aerobics are (by default) associated with women, and weights for men..

in my experience, (since every body is different from each other) i find it MORE challenging to do weights.. i dont worry about metabolism..

BUT! since u asked, what both do is take the muscle sets from inactive/low-level-movement to very active/high-level movements.. if u continue that for half hour, body receives communication from those muscle sets that we’re spending energy, so keep sending it..

so body will start generating energy.. based on what u ate, when u ate it, it attacks storage: fat. in IDEAL CONDITIONS, it should attack the STORED/already-digested fat first..

since half hour is REALLY extensive, ur metabolism shoots up, tries to produce energy to keep up..now after u finish ur half hour session, it doesnt slow down right away.. (cuz muscle sets that were being used are now worn/torn) so its still generating energy..

a half hour EXTENSIVE workout causes metabolism to shoot up for like 6 hrs.. between this time, whatever healthy stuff u eat, is going STRAIGHT to maintenance, not storage..

thats basically what aerobics/weights do to metabolism..

SIMPLE tips to keep ur metabolism elevated:

  1. instead of 3 meals a day (yeah yeah, english people were smoking rope), switch to 6 meals a day .. KEY idea is to eat EQUAL amount in total.. so u’re eating HALF as much, with half time in middle as compared to before..

  2. thats just meals.. while u’re reading this, start tapping/dancing/shaking ur feet .. u will be surprized HOW MUCH stored energy (fat) is burnt during this simple exercise.. our ancestors used to tell us that this is a sign of nervousness to continously moving ur legs or hands or tapping tables is bad manners, SO BEWARE OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS.

  3. every motion counts, if u’re sitting on table, dont ask to “pass spoon”, get up, walk towards it.. DONT plan ahead what u need to sit down, again: our ancestors butted in this one: ek baar sab kuch lay kar baith jaya karo.

  4. stairs- they are ur best friends.. i live in a 4level house.. i ABSOLUTELY, love running up/down stairs.. pretty much a set of 4-5 stairs is giving u a NICE burn.. and its at a good spot too.. lower ankles and upper thighs :k:

  5. regardless ur working schedules, DONT EAT anything less than 2hrs before sleeping .. or napping .. idea is to STAY AWAKE and burn it
