Simple Steps to Lose Weight

Today there are many Web sites for workout tips and losing weight such as TheDailyPlate.com and Traineo. There are many diet books, gyms, personal trainers. Usually all of this is a crutch. Yes, it's good that you have someone push you, but ultimately the decision to lose weight and stay healthy must come from within. There are simple calculations and exercises you can do in order to shed some pounds, put on muscle, and stay healthy.

First off, anyone who wants to get ripped simply needs to eat 2 grams of protein, .5 grams of carbs, and .25 grams of fat per pound of lean body mass per day.

For protein eat chick breast, turkey breast, tuna, egg whites, lean fish. For carbs eat plain oatmeal potatoes, rice. Do at least one hour of cardio a day, build up to two hours. Don't change your workout plan. Don't cheat and stick to the thing for 12 weeks. There isn't a singe human on earth who will not be ripped following this, provided they're under 15% body fat to begin with. It does not take motivation, it takes dedication! The motivation will leave in the first week, it's not one bit of fun, except when you are walking on the beach at 4% body fat.

It's not the drugs or supplements. They help but they don't allow you to eat chicken wings and get ripped. Stop worrying about what drugs the professionals use, just realize they do up to 3 hours of cardio a day! Motivation is worthless - there is no way you'll still be motivated after your 200th chicken breast washed doesn't with plain broccoli and water. You must be dedicated - that is what remains when all motivation has left and you can't stand to do cardio. Your typical routine of thinking of sex every five seconds will be replaced by food every 2 seconds. Dedication is what gets you up at 4:30am everyday for three months straight.
