So, do you also eat healthy and do tons of cardio and see no results? You are at the right place. These 5 tips are all you need to shed those extra kilos.

  1. Be in a Caloric Deficit

Each of us have different metabolisms and accordingly different calorie requirements. So, firstly you need to calculate your maintenance calories i.e. calories you require to maintain your current weight.

After you are done, you just need to consume calories below your maintenance calories. But make sure you are not going overboard with the difference, gradually increase the deficit. You can track your calories using apps such as Healthifyme or Myfitnesspal. You need to avoid those high calorie processed foods and try and eat as healthy as possible. But remember its a game of Calories in and Calories out, as simple as that.

  2. Drink loads of water

Drink at least 8-9 glasses of water daily. Water not only cleanses your body from inside but also promotes fat loss by boosting metabolism. Other benefits include glowing skin, good digestive health.

 3. Exercise regularly 

Exercise can be in any form, be it Resistance training, Bodyweight training or any form of physical activity due to which calories are burnt. One must exercise at least 3-4 times a week. Cardiovascular exercise is basically a tool to create a caloric deficit. So, you need to decide whether to go for it, but excess cardio can lead to muscle fatigue. 15 mins of HIIT or LIIT is more than enough 2-3 times a week.

4. Lookout for a balanced diet

Balanced diet is a diet containing all the macros viz. Carbs, Fats, Proteins, Vitamins, Minerals and Fibre

You need to strike a balance between all the macros. Proteins need to be bit on a higher side as they promote muscle growth but remember other macros are important as well.

5. Rest is important too

For your muscles to get recovered, sleep is essential. It is said that during fat loss, if the person is performing resistance training, most of the fat is lost while the person is asleep. So, make sure that you are getting 7-8 hours of sleep daily for optimum results

Pro tip: Try using Intermittent Fasting as a tool to create a caloric deficit. To know more:https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/intermittent-fasting-guide
