The Number 1 Way For Obese People To Lose The Fat
The number one way for obese people to lose fat is the exact same for those that
are only 20 pounds overweight. Strength training is the best way to cut through
fat and burn through calories. There's no difference between strength training
for the obese and strength training for everyone else.
When we strength train, we add lean muscle mass to our body. This lean muscle
mass burns through 35-50 calories per pound of muscle every single day. Let's
take a look at that number from a different point of view. If we have 5 pounds
of lean muscle, that muscle will burn about 250 calories a day. Here comes the
fun part. If we have 10 pounds of lean muscle mass, then our muscles burn about
500 calories a day. Hopefully you can see why adding lean muscle is the best way
to lose fat.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention state that we are obese if we
have a BMI (body mass index) of 30.0 or greater. Being obese is not healthy. It
leads to a host of diseases and illnesses. I'm almost positive you already knew
that.
Obese and over weight people can use functional exercises to begin changing
their health. Exercises like squats and bicep curls will help strengthen the
muscles we use in everyday movements. Often these movements are difficult for
obese people. Keep up your workout routine and you'll notice that getting in and
out of the car, walking to the mailbox, going upstairs and simply lifting heavy
boxes will all become less of a hassle.
Strength training for the obese is the same as strength training for slender
people. The difference comes in the starting point. It's so important to talk
with your doctor, get the go ahead to workout, and then create a routine that
you feel suits you best. Take one step at a time and before you know it, you
will have taken 5,000 steps.
