I am a fully qualified personal and group trainer with more than 10 years of experience in the fitness industry<\/a>, and I’m going to share with you my top 5 fat loss tips for women<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There’s so much info out there about fat loss, good and bad. But you don’t need to get lost in all of that. You just need to get these 5 foundations right and fat loss will not be a problem for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

MY TOP 5 FAT LOSS TIPS FOR WOMEN<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. CARDIO FOR FAT LOSS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Cardio exercises, such as running, power walking, cycling, swimming, or aerobics, increase your heart rate, improve your endurance, and spend a lot of your body’s energy (burn a lot of calories). This can create a calorie deficit and cause your body to burn more calories than you’re consuming. And in order to lose weight and fat, your body needs to be in a calorie deficit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But that’s not the whole story when it comes to cardio. There are 2 types of cardio I recommend, low-intensity cardio and high-intensity cardio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LOW-INTENSITY CARDIO FOR FAT LOSS<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Low-intensity cardio actually BURNS FAT<\/a>. This type of training is also known as aerobics training. When our body creates energy aerobically (when you do long duration low to moderate intensity cardio), it uses stored fat<\/a><\/strong>, stored glycogen (carbohydrates), and on occasion, protein.<\/strong> When you do high-intensity workouts, your body burns less fat and more glycogen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only catch, when it comes to low-intensity cardio, is that you need to do it for a long time for it to be effective. We’re talking a minimum of 45 min per day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Power walking is an excellent example of low-intensity cardio that burns fat. I have a very detailed blog post on how you can use power walking for fat loss<\/a> so be sure to give it a read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
