It's a problem which has been baffling men and women for decades, how to lose weight and keep it off long term. Today we're going to teach you the rules which so many dieters and gym users miss and you'll be achieving your fat loss goals in no time.
We've all heard the stories before. We've all had a friend or family member trying to tell you that they simply cannot lose any size no matter what they eat or how hard they train. Well, they may not like to hear this, but the fact is unless you have a medical issue it's simply not true. Most of us are overlooking the basic proven facts of a solid diet. These tips will not cost you a thing.
By the time you have read the contents of today's article you will feel a lot better about yourself and your position (because you are certainly no alone in it) but more importantly you will be able to achieve your goals.
The immediate task at hand is to figure out how many calories you need to eat each day. We cannot get results until we do this and you cannot achieve success without taking the time to do it. A pre-made plan from a magazine isn't going to cut it and we'll show you why.
All you need to do is figure out your goal weight in pounds and multiply it by twelve. That's it, you're done. This ball park figure is there to give you an idea how many calories per day to eat.
The real trick comes in getting your macronutrients (protein, carbs and fats) sorted out. This is where most people don't pay enough attention to their diet but, trust me, it's where the results are there for the taking. For instance, a guy eating a healthy 2000 calorie per day meal plan would get far superior results to a guy eating a unhealthy 2000 calorie per day meal plan, right? Of course he would.
One of the best ways to achieve this is to use the 4-4-2 system. That means 40% of your calories come from protein, 40% come from carbohydrates and 20% come from fats. So this is how to work that out:
For protein simply use your calculator to work out 40% of your daily calorie target and then divide the answer by four. That's how many grams of protein you need to eat per day.
With your carb intake simply do the protein sum again, because they have the exact same values.
With your fat intake just figure out 20% of your total calorie target and divide the answer by nine. Now you know how many grams of fat are necessary each day as well.
If you can hit that daily target of macronutrients you will notice that you don't even need to count your calories. The only reason we must set the calorie target is so we can then work out our macronutrient split, that's all.
Now that you have a solid diet plan in place you can begin implementing our other diet tips from today's video. We'd recommend adding one step at a time until you have all five tips working for you simultaneously, this allows you to take it step-by-step and keeps you from changing too much in one go.
Sadly, the majority of gym members never take the time to do what you have done today. They spend years trying to work out how to lose weight without actually taking the small amount of time necessary to put an end to all of their problems. The good news for you is that you've just taken the first step and now have the foundations of a really good eating plan established!
