Every woman wants to know how to lose stubborn belly fat,
lose weight and inches in the surest and fastest way. One
of secrets tools I recommend for women a body fat tester.
By using this for tool women can easily measure their
progress in a better way than the scale.
Some women ask if the scales that detect your body fat
work. The answer is "No".
These types of scales don't account for dehydration. For
example you could step on it in the morning and be 28%
body fat then later in the day you step on it again it says
33%. Your body will fluctuate constantly throughout the day
and even from day to day. Depending on how much water you
have in your body, if you are having your monthly cycle and
any other hormonal changes. It can be very discouraging
too. Another device is the electrical hand held device,
which again is often inaccurate for the same reason stated
earlier. This is not to be confused with the digital
calipers which can also measure your body fat.
If you are working with a professional that can track your
body fat, most likely they will take it with caliper, which
is a body fat tester. How does body fat tester work? It
works by a simply pinching skin in designated sites on the
body. The product comes along with a guide and sites for
you to measure.
Can I use a body fat tester on myself? Yes you can.
Keeping track of your body fat by testing it will actually
get you results quicker. Why? Think of it this way, if were
in sales and you had a monthly quota to reach you figure
out how many sales you would have to make in a day or week
in order to get to your goal. Additionally, by tracking it
you would also figure out after each sale what you did that
worked as well as the sales that you didn't get to keep you
on track of your monthly goal. This is how your brain
works..when it is given a set of instructions in this case
your body fat goal. It will find a way to keep on top on
your goal and if you need to tweak your program it will
make adjustments or in this case you would simply post your
question on the forum.
For example: "I have been tracking my body fat using the
calipers and for the past 3 weeks nothing is changing what
can I do to get my body fat moving in the right direction?"
From there you will be able to get the answers quickly with
this question along with explaining what your are doing
with your nutrition and training. When women realize the
beauty of this powerful tool they are hooked and no longer
a slave to the scale.
What about weighing myself, why do so many programs focus
on weight loss rather than fat loss?
Because weighing yourself is only a small portion of the
picture to measuring results. Remember muscle weighs more
than fat. So many women will get discouraged when weighing
themselves right after they implement a fat loss program,
as they tend to see the scale go up. What you need to
realize is that your body will fluctuate when you start
working out, especially with weights you tend to retain
what is called inter cellular fluid (water weight).
How accurate is a body fat test? The secret is really the
same method and the same tester when using a body fat test.
I like to use a 9 site reading but to get more information
about the body fat and it's sums. However, don't be
concerned about that, as I mentioned the key is the same
method and the same tester. You could even have a friend,
husband, or boyfriend perform the testing if you want as
well. Make sure they understand that it must be consistent.
