It has been argued and debated among many weight loss guru and experts about the fastest way to lose body fat and get ripped. This causes confusion among many people, especially the beginners because they totally have no idea what to do to shed their body fat and what to do in the gym.
But one thing is for sure, which is you need to get on a weight loss diet if you really want your muscles to show. There is no doubt about it. No matter how much cardiovascular training you do or how much weight training you do, you would not get into ripped condition if you did not watch what you eat. But if you combine weight training, cardio training and proper weight loss diet, you are guaranteed a rock hard ripped body!
The best weight loss results I ever had was when I tried the 5 day zero carb diet. It might sound very extreme to you but it is only for 5 days. Then on Saturday and Sunday, you can eat whatever you want. It really is easy for me to do because I know that I only have to diet for 5 days and on the weekend, I can eat my most favorite foods. It gives me a mental break.
When I say zero carb diet, I mean totally no carbohydrates. All though many experts say this is very unhealthy, we are dping only for 5 days and this is the diet that I followed during my modeling competition days. So, if you have doubt, make sure you consult your doctor first before trying this weight loss diet. So, you cannot have any sort of carbohydrates, pastries, pasta, bread, sweets,snacks and sugar drinks. Make sure you read the labels on the foods before buying them. Any stuff above 5 grams of sugar is not allowed. Milk is also not allowed because it contains lactose.
However, to your delight, you can eat loads of vegetables, meat, eggs, nuts and seafood. The best way to cook them is to grill them or to steam them. You can stir fry your vegetables or cook up omelet with vegetables. You need to be creative on your meals to avoid boredom. Alternate your protein sources so that you do not get burn out. Trust me, if you eat just tuna and egg whites for the whole week, you will go crazy and give up fast. You do not want to do that. You want to stay on this weight loss diet for at least a month or two to see really clear and amazing results. I assure you amazing results is common! Drink lots and lots of water. Double your water intake to keep your body hydrated. Also take a multivitamin and mineral supplements during this period. You need to supply your body with vital nutritions that is missed out from carbohydrates.
Then when Saturday comes, you can eat your favorite foods. Do not binge until you go sick though. Enjoy your food. Take this time as a reward and only eat foods that you really love. Do not bloat up your stomach with foods that you don’t really like and then stuff yourself up with foods that you love because it will only make you sick! Give this diet a try, you will get your dream body and get the attention that you deserve!
