Working Methods To Burn Fat But Not Muscle

By Aubrey Stoffels


If your life was quite laid back and sedentary and now you've decided to do something about it by gaining muscle and losing fat then we have some words of caution. If you are beginning from scratch you will be better off simply easing into things than rushing into them. Changing your life really quickly by incorporating a full blown diet and workout regime will usually end in failure. Sure, some people have the disposition that allows them to do that. But the majority of people have a very difficult time sustaining those kinds of changes all at once. So we would recommend that you ease in your dietary changes and your new exercise regime slowly by forming new habits.

An eclectic approach, where you pick a number of methods, is probably one of the better ways to burn fat and not muscle. Some methods will work better together than others, which is something to keep in mind. However, no matter what, to have the best success you will need to make positive changes with your eating habits. There's so much information out there regarding this subject, so doing this with your diet won't be difficult at all. Then you will need to analyze the kinds of exercise and routines that you do. Of course, this is assuming you're doing some regular exercise, however if you're not then that's ok.

The next suggestions are about how you can burn fat without harming your muscle mass too much. But first, it is important you understand that roughly the first twenty or so minutes of exercise produces glycogen burn instead of fat burn. So, keeping that in mind, you should start off by doing a bit of resistance work during those first 20 or so minutes. Firstly, warming up and stretching exercises should be done and then the resistance training.

After that, then you can do cardio training, and then you will be burning fat rather then glycogen. So give that a try for some good period of time and see how you like the results.

Simple carbohydrates, or simple sugars in this context, should be avoided when possible. Both complex carbs and this type of sugar will be turned into fat rather quickly. Three simple sugars, as an example, are fructose, sucrose and glucose. However we really must mention something regarding fructose in fruits. Whilst they do contain a simple sugar, they carry some wonderful benefits so they're recommended to be eaten. You'll get healthy vitamins, minerals, fiber and antioxidants as well. When trying to just burn fat and not muscle mass there are many approaches that are flexible. That is actually a good thing because it means we have variety and choices for accomplishing this goal.
