Should I join?
I want to join the water polo team, and I have to make my mind by Friday. I have aroudn 5 months before the practices and game start. Thing is I’m fat. No one likes to see a fat kid in a speedo. If I say yes on Friday, I have to burn 2 lbs every week hoping to see myself getting thinner and thinner. If I say no, I can do it on my own pace. But If I say yes, it’ll give me a reason to exercise on my own time. And if I say No, I procrastinate ALOT. So, please help me. And Also, If you say yes, can you provide a list of exercises, food, and other tips for me? And the only equipment I have available is a Treadmill, 2 3lbs dumbells, 2 5 lb dumbells, and a Chin up bar. Thank you~
Join the water polo team, it’s an awesome sport. It will help you get into shape really easily. It may feel hard at first, but keep working at it!
Heres a weight loss guide:
There are three possible ways to gain body-fat: (1) Eat late at night (2) Exceed your normal caloric intake (3) Lack of exercise or physical activity.
When calories exceed normal levels, the "unused" surplus becomes body-fat. Lack of exercise limits metabolism speed. The metabolism must reach a certain speed in order to burn fat.
The best way to speed up your metabolism is through cardiovascular exercise. is best to do cardio on an empty stomach. Overnight during sleep, calories are burned slowly. By morning, blood sugar and carb levels low. This empty stomach training forces the body to look for an alternate energy source, which is fat.
The second best way to speed up the metabolism is by increasing meal frequency. Try eating 4 - 5 small meals per day, or 3 meals and 2 healthy snack meals.
One of the best ways and easiest ways to lose fat is to reduce your calorie intake. Very simple substitutions can make a lot of difference. Here are some simple examples:
English Muffin instead of a Bagel. Calorie Intake Reduced: 40
6” sub instead of 2 slices of Pizza. Calorie Intake Reduced: 160
Water for soda. Calorie Intake Reduced: 150
Baked over Fried Chicken: 80
If this was your daily meal, you just saved 330 calories. There are 3500 calories in 1 pound of fat.
Some good weight loss tips:
Tip 1: Limit High Carbohydrate Foods- To maximize the fat-burning process, it’s best to gradually eliminate carbohydrates toward the end of the day. This minimizes your chances of storing fat late at night.
Tip 2: Motivate Yourself- Try to find an incentive for getting in shape and burning fat.
Tip 3: Low-Calorie Food Alternatives- Try to save as many calories as you can. Substitute water for soda, baked chicken for fried chicken, sub sandwiches for pizza, etc.
Tip 4: Don’t starve Yourself- Starving only promotes a bigger "rebound" effect because your body likes to hold on from what it is deprived of. Instead, fuel the body every 2 to 3 hours with small meals.
Tip 5: Drink 1 or More Glasses of Water Before Meals- This is to help fill the stomach and give you a full feeling.
Tip 6: Don’t Give up- Nothing will work if you don’t give it a try
