Increasing the metabolism in your body will strip away fat faster than you can ever imaging. So I've come up with the Five best ways to speed up your metabolism as fast as possible.
1. Eat breakfast! You must eat breakfast within 30 minutes after you get up in the morning. Eat a bout 2 cups of a complex carbohydrate for energy such as aotmeal and a about 1 cup of a protein to fuel your muscles such as scrambled eggs made with egg beaters, or even a protein shake. (go to www.AdvoCareConcepts.com for a very healthy protein shake)
2. Eat every 3 hours during the day starting after your breakfast. This should make you eat 5-6 small meals each day. When I say small I mean about 300 calories each meal.
3. Combine a complex carbohydrate (foods higher in fiber) and a protein every single time you eat instead of breaking them up throughout the day. This alone will greatly improve your metabolism. Example: piece of whole wheat toast with low fat peanut butter on it.
4. Get as much cardiovascular exercise in as you possibly can. 30-45 minutes three times per week minimum! Just go out for a power walk! You don't need fancy treadmills or ellipticals to do cardio.
5. Combine total body resistance training with short bursts of higher intensity cardio at least 2-3 times per week. Example: 20 squats, 20 push-ups and 30 seconds of step-ups.
Alright here's a bonus for you:
6. Drink at least 8 16oz glasses of water every day. This does not mean guzzle down water all day long. Take 2 swallows of water every 10 minutes throught the entire day, every day. This should get you the correct amount of water.
