Weight loss is one of the hottest topics of all time. Everyone seems to be trying to lose weight nowadays. Most diet programs focus on weight loss and body weight is often used as an indicator of progress. But it's a bad approach.
Your ultimate goal should always be to lose fat and pay attention to reducing excess body fat. Weight loss and fat loss are not the same thing! Many people confuse the two terms, often believing that they mean the same thing when in fact, weight loss and fat loss are very different from each other. This article will help you understand how weight loss is different from fat loss and how fat loss is far superior to weight loss in almost every way.
What is weight loss?
(Weight loss = muscle loss, fat loss, water loss)
Weight loss is about reducing your total weight. It simply refers to a lower number on a scale.
Your body weight is composed of all parts of your body such as muscles, fat, bones, water, organs, tissues, blood, water, etc. When you lose weight, you lose a little ... fat, muscle and water.
You lose fat but very little and with fat, you lose muscle and water. The more you reduce your caloric intake, the faster you lose weight and the more muscle you lose.
Do you know that your muscle is important? Muscle loss affects your health and your overall appearance.
When you lose weight too quickly, your body can no longer maintain its muscles. As the muscle needs more calories to support itself, your body starts metabolizing it so that it can reserve the next calories for its survival. It protects it from fat stores as a defense mechanism to ensure your survival in case of future hunger. Instead, it uses lean tissue or muscle to provide the calories it needs to maintain vital organs such as the functioning of your brain, heart, kidneys and liver. If you reach a point where you have very little fat or muscle, your body will metabolize your organs to keep your brain functioning, leading to heart attack, stroke, liver and kidney failure.
As the body loses more muscle mass, its overall metabolic rate decreases. Metabolic rate is the rate at which the body burns calories and is partly determined by the amount of muscle you have.
So the more muscle you have, the higher your metabolic rate; the less muscle you have, the lower your metabolic rate and the less calories you burn. This explains why it is important to protect your metabolic rate and not lose muscle.
The loss of muscle also causes a loss of tone under the skin, leaving you soft and merciless, without shape or contour. If you lose weight too quickly, your skin will not have time to adjust either. In addition, muscle is what gives you strength and its loss means a weak body.
With weight loss, you reduce and become a smaller version of yourself with a delicate frame with sagging skin.
Weight loss works in the short term, but almost everyone bounces and regains weight. This forces you to find another diet. And then another, and another - because they will eventually fail.
What is fat loss?
(Fat loss = registered body fat loss)
Fat loss is about reducing your total body fat - p. Ex. The percentage of your total weight, which is fat.
The proper approach for fat loss is to exercise smart and eat smart in a way that restrains muscle and focuses exclusively on fat loss.
The muscle you have is not there forever. If you do not feed it and do not use it, you lose it. An appropriate plan with the right combination of endurance and cardiovascular training with proper progression and an appropriate nutrition plan to support it can help you achieve this goal. Exercise only speeds up the burning process, but not only melt the fat - unless it creates a deficit and overfeeds the body - it will not affect stored fuel stores. If you cut calories and do not feed your muscles properly, or if you do not exercise and do not use your muscles, you will lose them. Fat loss is about finding the right balance.
With fat loss, you maintain muscle and maintain high metabolic rate. You also develop stronger connective tissue, firmer skin, stronger bones and joints. With fat loss, you transform your body.
Fat loss is a lifestyle approach that involves giving your body what it needs without depriving it or shocking it of a threat of hunger. You can see slow, steady and steady progress.
This may seem strange, but it is possible to lose weight without seeing a change in weight. This happens when you lose body fat during bodybuilding. Your weight stays the same, even if you lose inches.
Let's see how that goes.
The thick fabric is very loose and not dense. It takes a lot of space in your body. While the muscle is denser and takes up less space. When you lose fat, this space becomes loose and you may notice a loss of one centimeter. If you follow a regular muscle training program, gaining lean muscle tissue will offset that fat loss and the weight will stay the same. As the muscle takes up less space than the fat, you lose inches and start looking more toned, leaner and more serene.
consistent weight training program then gaining lean muscle tissue will balance that fat loss and the weight remains the same. As the muscle takes up less space than the fat, you lose inches and start looking more toned, leaner and more serene.
