How much calorie restriction do you need to lose weight?
You already know that you need some amount of calorie restriction to lose fat but how much of a caloric deficit do you really need to get results from your fatloss workout plan.Most people go overboard when cutting calories to lose fat and this creates two problems; a slow metabolism and uncontrollable hunger. This makes it much tougher to burn fat and reshape your body plus it defeats the purpose of cutting calories. Instead of slashing calories to the bar minimum try improving the quality of the food you eat. Mike Geary author of Truth About Abs explains that people get much better results by focusing on his list of 55 lean body foods. No need for complicated calorie counting and banning of entire foods groups. The key to fatloss and body transformation is better choices. Just watch the video below for some great ideas about how to implement calorie restriction without making yourself crazy.
Another Great Calorie Reduction Strategy
The best way to reduce calories is with a fatloss diet depletion plan. Identify the foods that are not going to help you reach your goal and then commit to not eating them for a 4 week period. Get them out of your fridge, pantry, house, and office. In the video here CB of Turbulence Training takes you through his fatloss diet depletion plan and shows you how even fit people experience what he calls the "diet creep" and what you need to do in order to start getting visible results from your fatloss plan.
