Fat Burning Food - Food that burn fat


Fat Burning Food - Food that burn fat

You may have good muscle size but your muscles won't look very impressive if they are hidden under a thick layer of fat. Developing well-defined muscles requires paying as much attention to your fat burning food and diet as to your fat burning training program. No amount of training in the gym will give you a rippling six-pack unless you combine it with the right sort of fat burning eating program. That does not mean 'dieting' though. The term 'dieting' is often laden with negative advice and creates a negative mind-set, setting you up for failure rather than success. Use the nutritional advice from our Diet and Nutrition Section on the basis of your eating plan. In addition, through this article we will help you decide on your body-fat goal and make a plan of action to achieve it. This article gives you a clear fat-burning strategy to shedding body fat without losing muscle. To help you devise your fat-burning eating plan, we also provide step­by-step guidance - based on cutting-edge science - to calculate your calorie, carbohydrate, protein and fat requirements. Finally, we will provide you three nutritionally balanced fat burning eating plans that you can use as the basis for your personal fat burning diet plan.

What is my optimal body-fat percentage

It is impossible to set an optimal body-fat percentage that applies to everyone. The body-fat level that your body comfortably reaches without strict dieting is dependent on your genetic make-up as well as your diet and activity. Your natural body type dictates to some extent how much fat you carry and how readily you store it. For example, if you are an ectomorph (narrow frame, long limbs) or mesomorph (athletic frame, well muscled), you are naturally lean and will be able to achieve a lower body-fat percentage than an endomorph (stocky frame, rounded build) who stores fat easily. But, whatever your natural body type be, you can still achieve a lower body-fat level and more defined physique through consistent hard training and healthy eating. The important point is to decide on a level that is realistic for your build and shape.

How low can I go?

Healthy ranges for the general population are 18%-25% for women and 13%-18% for men. But if you are a strength trainer or bodybuilder, you may desire lower levels. Between 10 and 20% for women and between 6 and 15% for men are common among well-trained athletes - levels that are generally associated with peak performance - but these percentages should be regarded with some caution. If you try to attain a low body-fat percentage that is unnatural for your genetic make-up, you may encounter problems.

For women, a body-fat percentage that is under their individual threshold for menstruation (14-20%) can be risky. Below this, a deficiency of oestrogen and progesterone similar to those levels experienced during and after the menopause can result in amenorrhoea (cessation of menstruation). This can lead to infertility, a loss of bone density, stress fractures and premature osteoporosis. Most experts therefore recommend a lower limit of 14% body fat for women.

If a man's body-fat percentage dips too low, there are health risks too. Studies have shown that when men reach a body-fat level of 4-6%, their bodies start to feed on muscle tissue as a
source of energy and to allow them to maintain their fat stores at a minimal level. It is definitely unwise, if not impossible, to reduce your body fat below this level. Other studies have found that testosterone levels plummet below 5% body fat, causing reduced sexual drive and fertility!

How to design your fat-burning food plan

The following steps show you how to calculate your calorie, carbohydrate, protein and fat needs to lose body fat.

Step 1: Estimate your calorie needs

1. Estimate your resting metabolic rate (RMR) using the appropriate equation in the table below. This is the number of calories you burn at rest over 24 hours maintaining essential functions such as respiration, digestion and brain function.

Example:
For a 28-year-old 70 kg man

RMR = (70 x 15.3) + 679 = 1750 kcal

Resting Metabolic rate in athletes(RMR)

Age (years)

Men

Women

10-18

(body weight in Kg x 17.5)+651

(body weight in Kg x 12.2)+746

19-30

(body weight in Kg x 15.3)+679

(body weight in Kg x 14.7)+496

31-60

(body weight in Kg x 11.6)+879

(body weight in Kg x 8.7)+829

2. Calculate your daily energy expenditure (without exercise) by multiplying your RMR by one of the numbers below

  • if you are mostly sedentary (mostly seated or standing activities during the day): RMR x 1.4
  • if you are moderately active (regular brisk walking or equivalent during the day): RMR x 1.7
  • If you are very active (generally physically active during the day): RMR x 2.0

Example:
For a 28-year-old 70 kg man who is mostly sedentary:
Daily energy needs (without exercise) = 1750 x 1.4 = 2450 kcal

3. To lose body fat, reduce your maintenance intake by 15%. Simply multiply the figure from 1. by 85%.

Example:
For a 28-year-old 80 kg man, mostly sedentary, who spends 3 hours/week weight training and 1 hour / week running:

RMR = (80 x 15.3) + 679 = 1903 kcal

Daily energy needs (without exercise) = 1903 x 1.4 = 2664 kcal

No. of calories burned during exercise per week = (3 x 492) + 840 = 2316 kcal

Daily energy needs (with exercise) for weight maintenance
= 2664 + (2316/7)
= 2995 kcal

Daily energy needs to lose fat = 2995 x 0.85 = 2546 kcal

Step 2: Calculate your carbohydrate needs

For moderate-intensity training lasting up to one hour, you should aim to consume 4-5 g carbohydrate/kg body weight/day.

Example:
For a 28-year-old 80 kg man, mostly sedentary, who spends 3 hours/week weight training and 1 hour / week running:

Carbohydrate needs = (4 x 80)-(5 x 80) = 320-400 g/day

Average = 360 g/ day

Step 3: Calculate your protein intake

The protein requirement for strength training during weight loss is 1.8-2.0 g/kg body weight/ day.

Example:
For a 28-year-old 80 kg man, mostly sedentary, who spends 3 hours/week weight training and 1 hour / week running:

Protein needs = 2.0 x 80 = 160 g/ day

Kcal per gram

  • To calculate carbohydrate calories, multiply g carbohydrate by 4:1 g carbohydrate yields 4 Kcal
  • To calculate protein calories, multiply g protein by 4:1 g protein yields 4 Kcal
  • To calculate fat g, divide fat calories by 9:1 g fat yields 9 Kcal

Step 4: Calculate your fat needs

Fat should contribute 15-20% of your calorie intake. In effect, your fat calories are the balance remaining after you have subtracted your carbohydrate and protein calories from your total calorie intake.

Example:
For a 28-year-old 80 kg man, mostly sedentary, who spends 3 hours/week weight training and 1 hour / week running:

Carbohydrate calories:
= 360 x 4
= 1440 kcal
= 160 x 4
= 640 kcal

Fat calories = (total calories) - (calories from carbohydrate and protein)
= 2546 - 1440 - 640 = 466 kcal
= 466/9
= 52 g

List of Top Fat Burning Foods

fat buring foods People who have weight problems have looked high and low for solutions that would help them loose their weight naturally. Dieting is not one of the best ways to loose weight, though out of nothing better to do, it is the most common approach used. What happens though when you diet is that you starve the body for a period of time which would result in weight loss; that "starvation" induces binge eating after the dieting period that puts their weight back to square one, or even end up gaining some weight. Generally speaking, if fattening foods associated with a high fat diet are avoided, the majority of the problem could be avoided.

List of Healthy Foods that Burn Fat

Yes, there are healthy foods that trigger fat burning hormones and that could be used instead of dieting, to help you loose weight in the most natural manner. Dieting here would be to switch to low fat food diet - a diet that would eliminate all starchy and oily foods from your diet - which even without the need to diet, are not part of a healthy eating habit. The switching should be done to fat flushing foods. Check out the following list of low fat foods to get an idea of what these foods are:

Apples

this fruit contains the highest percentage of a soluble fiber, called pectin which helps you loose weight. Some reports indicate that it could help you loose approximately 30% more weight than you would otherwise do with a normal weight loss diet.

Garlic

the legendary garlic has the famous anti-bacterial compound called allicin which not only boosts the immune system, but also helps to remove cholesterol and other unhealthy fats from the blood.

Tomatoes

this wonder vegetable is also known to be a good anti-cancer agent besides helping you in loosing weight.

Carrots

this vegetable is used to fill your stomach so you would not eat anymore rather than anything more deep - some people consume a carrot immediately after a meal so there would be no space left in the stomach for the dessert. In this way the fattening dessert is replaced with the carrot which is definitely more healthy for the body.

Mangoes

mangos are excellent tasting fruits which have the least of calories while at the same time, are packed with fiber.

Oranges

this fruit as well as the other citrus fruits have plenty of Vitamin C which is a very well known for its fat burning ability. Oranges and vitamin C make an excellent combination against fat.

Spinach

another one of the fat flushing foods, this vegetable is well known also for its capacity to combat anemia as well as an anti-cancer agent.

Vitamin C rich fat flushing foods

other than the citrus fruits, there are many more fruits that are rich with this crucial vitamin. These too, could join the low fat food list given above - cabbage, watermelon, asparagus, blueberry, beet root, and the broccoli among others. The foods that you have read about above are also called the negative calorie foods, implying that these fat burning natural foods can actually burn the calories in the body. If you combine these foods with a simple yet regular exercising regime, you would definitely be able to loose weight and maintain it at the levels you are comfortable with it. So plan a diet of fat burning foods and get rid of fat the healty way without actually dieting.
