Ever wonder how fitness models look so great in magazines? Well its not all smoke, mirrors and Adobe Photoshop editing.
Believe it or not, some photographers will flat out turn a fitness model away if she shows up to a photo shoot out of shape. It’s just too hard to sell images of flabby fitness models.
So how do models firm up before a shoot? There’s tons of ways to do this but the easiest way is to give yourself two weeks to shed five pounds.
That may not seem like a lot of weight to lose, but looking good is not so much about weight loss as it is about weight re-distribution.
In reality, shedding five pounds of flab could mean the difference between a 32-inch waist and a 28-inch waist. Using these five steps, you’ll drop that body jiggle in no time.
Step 1: Double up on your aerobics
Instead of exercising for 30 minutes on the treadmill, step it up to 60 minutes. You don’t need to walk, step or jog faster, only longer. Extending your workouts past 30 minutes gives your body more time to burn fat, as opposed to only burning carbohydrates for energy.
Added tip, don’t eat more because you exercise more. Lean bodies are nutritionally efficient bodies.
Step 2: Go to bed the same time every night before 11pm
When bodybuilders train for a show, you can bet on one thing for certain, they’re snoozing by 11pm every night. Going to bed consistently by 11am gives fat the one-two knockout.
Early sleep lowers the amount of cortisol levels in your blood. Higher than normal cortisol levels encourages fat storage. As an added boost, when you regulate your sleep, you levels of melatonin kick in like clockwork each night to not only enhance your sleep, but to actually burn fat better.
Step 3: Wake up 30 minutes earlier
OK, you have to get your double exercise time from somewhere, so it comes from your sleep time. Getting up earlier also helps you sleep better. With the added fatigue from exercising and going to sleep at a regular time, your dozing hours will be more restful and you probably won’t even notice those 30 minutes that you skimped on.
Step 4: Eat you last meal by 6:30pm
If you meet a successful fitness model, one thing you’re sure to encounter is that she has her eating habits down to a science. Closing down you kitchen a 6:30 has several weight loss benefits.
First, by not eating for a full twelve hours each day, you give your stomach time to empty itself and allow you body to use excess fat for energy. Second, if your last meal is at 6:30pm and you crawl into bed by 11pm, your body won’t be so busy digesting food all night long- making your rest all the more peaceful.
Step 5: Eat more frequently, 6-8 times a day
Metabolism manipulation is the cornerstone of weight loss. Manipulate your meals and you manipulate your metabolism.
If you normally eat 3-5 meals a day, break those feasts in the 6-8 mini meals. Remember, do not add more food just split the meals in two. Regularly feeding your body keeps the body’s energy level at its optimum.
Moreover, you’ll have the energy you need to make it through an extended cardio session.
There you have it, fives steps to the slimmer you. And yes, it works like clockwork. Give yourself two weeks and watch the last bit of flab slip away. I dare you.
