Many women find after they turn 30 that their metabolism is
not as fast as it used to be.
One of the problems I find in working with women over 30 is
that they don't exercise as much as they used to, eat
fat-burning foods, and use proper supplements.
There are many ways that you can turbo-charge your
metabolism to start burning more fat.
Here are the 4 Secrets to rebuild your sluggish metabolism:
Secret #1 Making sure that you eat more frequently
throughout your day at least every 3 hours. I find so many
women eating only 2 meals a day which will slow down the
metabolism and decrease energy levels. By eating
throughout the day, your body will start to burn more fat
instantly and help boost your energy levels. The best fat
burning meals are ones that contain a lean protein, small
amount of fats, and carbohydrates.
Secret #2 Eating meals that are fat-burning. When I consult
with women I give them the list of foods that will increase
their metabolism. An example of some of these foods are
chicken, oatmeal, and green beans. Foods that are
unprocessed have a different affect on your body and will
help you to burn more fat 3-4 times faster.
Secret #3 Supplementing with EFA's (essential fatty
acids). Taking 1 tablespoon a day of flax seed oil, fish
oil, linseed oil, safflower oil, or evening primrose oil
are some of the best sources. EFA's are essential to your
body and keeping it functioning properly.
Secret #4 Exercise. Combing both cardiovascular and weight
training will increase your metabolism. Most women I find
just do cardiovascular which is good, but if you really
want to turbo-charge your metabolism you need to do weight
training too.
I recommend at least 3 times a week. Weight training helps
tone and sculpt your whole body and creates more lean
muscle. The more lean muscle you have the faster your
metabolism will be. Workouts for women are crucial in
speeding up your metabolism and also being able to eat more
calories. You can also incorporate your favorite foods
like pizza and ice cream once a week if you have your fat
loss program set up correctly.
You will find after you start to implement these 4 secrets
that your body will become leaner and you will have more
energy. Don't think just because you are over 30 that you
can't have the body you desire.
