What’s The Best Fat Loss Program For YOU?
One very big problem I see when it comes to people trying to lose weight is that they’re listening to the people the shouldn’t be listening to.
Trust me, there are A LOT of people, even some fitness experts, that are going to try and “prove” to you that their system is the best out there.
They try to say that their system is the ONLY system that will work and that other programs won’t do as good of a job at helping you lose weight.
I completely disagree with that.
You see, the ONLY way you’re going to lose weight is if you’re in a caloric deficit. Put simply, if you burn more calories than you eat (or drink), you’re going to lose weight.
The method for this DOES NOT matter.
I recently read a study where they put a bunch of people on a variety of diets for a year.
This included low-carb, high-carb, high-protein, low-fat, and all the other combinations you can think of.
And guess what?
The results showed that the METHOD of losing weight didn’t matter – it all came down to simply having a caloric deficit and actually being able to stick with the program.
This is a little extreme, but you could literally eat cheesecake all day and lose weight. As long as you’re burning off more calories than you’re eating in cheesecake, it’s going to come off.
So with that said, how do you pick the right fat loss program for you then?
In my opinion it all comes down to how easy it is for you to stick with. If you’re following a diet plan now that’s too restricting, makes you count calories, makes you eat 6 meals per day, and all that other non-sense (for the record, I DO believe in calorie counting and know that it works wonderfully, it’s just that most people aren’t that dedicated to losing weight and won’t actually do it), you’re probably going to fail.
Is that kind of a diet good for people who are going into competitions or are so insanely crazy about their appearance that they’d rather restrict themselves than be able to eat some of the foods they love? Sure it is.
But for the vast majority of people out there who simply want to lose weight and look good but aren’t worried about having every single muscle in their body showing, I think it’s simply too hard to stick with.
In my opinion the best fat loss program that you can be on is one that’s flexible. It allows you to cheat a little bit when you get the urge, or be completely strict if you want to lose fat faster and get as ripped and lean as possible.
You just need to go out there and follow your instincts to figure out who’s got the best fat loss program out there for YOU.
