Hey All,
I get asked this question a lot, " Max, what is the fastest way to burn fat". My answer- you have to put in the work. I do wish a had a magic weight loss pill.
The journey to fat loss should be looked upon as, excited, fun, rewarding, you are about to embark on a new you. Yes there will be some challenges, yes you may feel a bit uncomfortable at the start, but the gains are so rewarding-self accomplishment.
What I mean when I say " you have to put in the work", I don't mean, its a merciless agony of pain, 5am training sessions, and eating raw vegetables, which I have nothing against living, training and eating that way haha, but there are way easier ways to burn the fat.
Truth is, weight loss should not be looked upon as a quick fix, to define my statement more.I see many that " want 10kg gone in there first week", and when the individual experiences, that it is unrealistic to achieve that goal, and also maintain, the unhealthy rapid weight loss that was achieved, in such a short amount of time. People tend to give up, get more upset and confused about the whole process of losing weight and being fit.
I have seen some fat loss fads out there promises unrealistic goals. Weight loss should be set as a long term goal, yes you still need to set small goals along the way, and accomplish them. Small goals are important as well, but as a whole, its a long term goal.
You want to be able to maintain your fat loss for life. And if you do fall off the wagon, and may have a miss hap. Due to your fat loss being set as a long and short term goal, you would have developed such a strong daily habit of knowing what to eat, exercising, connecting with your body more, that your body will be on auto pilot. Say you had a blow out, and ate some bad foods or missed a training session, your body will be like" What is going on here, I don't feel right' your body is now so use to training and eating right, that you will have no choice to follow suit with what your body is telling you, and that is to continue living the healthy lifestyle.
This is the key to living a healthy lifestyle, make the training, nutrition, rest, make these principles such a HABIT in your life, that it becomes a part of living. And don't forgot to have some fun with your training as well.
