Easy tips how to slim down hips and waist
Most people decide to lose the extra calories with diets and there is nothing wrong with that. But the problem is that most diets make you cut calories very low and that causes a lot of problems. It is much better to reduce calories slowly by only 15-20% below your maintenance level. so if your maintenance level is 2500 calories then 500-600 calorie deficit is more than enough.
People often want to lose weight really fast but every time you want to lose weight really fast you also lose muscle. In fact with very low calorie diets some 40% or more of the weight you lose is muscle not fat. So cutting calories gradually is important.
Aerobic and weight training and physical activity in general are the other ways to get rid of extra calories. For example if you start aerobic workout program and exercise 3 times a week, burning around 250 calories during your workouts, then you would burn 750 calories a week. If you only used diets, and wanted to lose the same amount of weight, then you would have had to eat 750 calories less.
So with aerobic training you do not have to cut calories very low making the whole process a lot easier. most of the time people give up because staying on low calories all the time is impossible. The more you exercise the less calories you have to cut with exercise. You can easily eat some 2000 calories a day and still lose weight, if you burn calories with exercise.
