Fat Loss Supplements

Used in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise plan, these products can help in your fat loss goals. 

The Basics:

The Keys  to Losing Body Fat - The Diet

• Ensure your diet has adequate protein, at least 1.5-2.0 grams of protein per kg of bodyweight per day even whilst trying to loose fat.
• Reduce your calorie intake. A rough start point is the following multiple (22 x bodyweight in kgs) e.g 22 x 75kgs = 1650 calories per day.
• Eat 5-6 meals per day comprised of healthy sources of protein, carbohydrates and fats.
• Do not cut fats out of your diet. Try and consume at least 3 grams of Omega 3 fatty acids per day.  Such fats have wide ranging and vital health benefits. 
• Try a high quality MRP like Progen between your standard meals to help make up the 5-6 meals.
• Understand the different nature of proven fat loss supplements like CLA, L-Carnitine and Green Tea.
• Drink plenty of water throughout the day to remain hydrated.

The Keys to Losing Body Fat - The Training

• Use a combination of weight training and cardio exercise. Try cardio in the morning and a weight session in the afternoon.
• If possible do your cardio exercise in the morning before breakfast.
• Do not over exercise, this can halt fat loss
• Keep cardio limited to a maximum of 45 mintues per day
• Weight training session should focus on a repetition range of 10-15 reps with sets of 3. Again limited to a maximum of 45 minutes.
• Cardio should be done at a medium to hard intensity.
