If you are trying to discover how to lose weight more effectively, you may be surprised to find out that most of the steps towards building a better physique are simple changes you can make at home. Today we'll be looking at how to schedule your meals for better results.
Most of us get lost in the world of supplements and products claiming to do all of the hard work for us, but the truth is the science behind fat loss hasn't changed very much over the last few years.
How big is the role played by meal frequency? Does it make any difference at all? This is a statement which has caught the attention of many dieters in the last couple of years and it is a conversation which takes place daily in most gyms.
Is there any productive research behind this approach of breaking down your meals into smaller portions?
Surprisingly, yes there is. The science on this subject reveals that our bodies don't operate as efficiently when provided with a massive intake of nutrients all in one go. We're unable to make efficient use of the big intake of fuel, so we tend to store more fat.
More body fat is stored as a result of our muscles simply not needing all of this fuel. Also, it tends to lead us to feel quite bloated and, in some cases, ready for a nap.
If you have ever consumed a large meal which was dense in carbohydrates you will have experienced these feelings before. Once our natural storage space is used, we begin putting the rest of the nutrients to use as body fat.
By breaking down your meals and switching from three bigger, square meals each day to a new lighter approach you will increase fat loss results considerably. This even works if you are still eating the same foods and total calories overall.
Science has shown us over the last couple of decades that when we eat five or six smaller, well rounded meals per day we lose all of the negative side effects we have listed above, such as bloating and sluggishness. As well as this, our body is also able to break down each smaller meal much more efficiently and use it for fuel rather than storing it as unwanted body fat.
When people are looking for information on how to lose weight, or perhaps even how to build muscle, they often get lost in a sea of information and 'next big thing' products. Today's post gives you one of the most basic, proven methods to get more from your diet and it is something which you can begin applying right now.
