Expert Weight Loss Tips: What's Best, Dieting or Exercise for Best Weight loss & Belly Fat Loss?

Experts have some surprising weight loss tips for long term weight loss:

• Over eight months, people lost a lot more weight on diets that encouraged eating a bigger breakfast.

People who ate a breakfast of 610 calories -- that included carbohydrates -- lost more weight than those on diets eating a breakfast of only 290 calories with LOW carbohydrates.

The low-carb people did better at first, but in the long, after eight months, they had re-gained a lot more weight, while the big breakfast people kept on losing weight.

• What about Fat burning Exercises for Waists, Thighs and Hips?

Research is showing that reducing the SIZE OF THE FAT CELLS around the waist is important because of the health consequences of this fat, which includes DIABETES.

A study published in the International Journal of Obesity looked at three groups of obese women:

One group dieted, the second dieted and exercised MODERATELY, and the third dieted and exercised INTENSIVELY.

• There was NO change in the size of the fat cells around the waists of the dieters.

• But there was a reduction in the SIZE OF FAT CELLS in both groups of dieters/exercisers.

• There was NO difference in fat cell reduction between the moderate and the intense exercisers!

Weight Loss Tips: Diet or Exercise Best?

• Weight loss tips from research is settling the question of: "Is it better to exercise more or to eat less?"

At face value, both dieting and exercise are equal – they both work. But exercise wins in the long run for best weight loss.

A new study tells us why, but it is NOT just because of the calories that you burn off while you exercise!

Weight Loss Tips: Why Not Exercise to Burn Off Calories?

We've been lead to believe that aerobic exercise is necessary for healthy weight loss to burn off calories. This effect in itself is not the main point.

• Even though you burn calories when training aerobically, you only burn a relatively small amount. For example in a 30 minute jogging session you may burn around 200-300 calories depending on your body weight (especially muscle), age and other things.

• What you've just burned is the equivalent of a large apple and banana. But that's comparing it to fruits. Considering a Big Mac is around 500 calories, you can see how that's a relatively small amount.

Weight Loss Tips: More Benefits from Exercise or from Dieting?

A U.S. study has shown that exercise gets the best weight loss because of better fitness. Why is that?

• Even though both diet and exercise are equally effective for losing pounds, there is nevertheless a significant advantage to exercise in that you get fitter in the process.

• “Weight loss through exercise provides greater benefits because it increases your capacity to perform physical activity while diet-induced weight loss does not provide such a benefit,” according to the lead researcher, Edward Weiss at Saint Louis University.

For the study, researchers recruited 34 volunteers -- 18 dieted while 16 engaged in moderate exercise such as a brisk walk for an hour, six times a week. After one year, both groups had lost about the same amount – about 10 per cent of their body weight, which is considered healthy weight loss.

But there was a marked difference in fitness levels.

• “While the EXERCISERS MAINTAINED their strength and muscle mass and INCREASED their aerobic capacity, those who DIETED, LOST all three: muscle mass, strength and aerobic capacity,” the researchers report in the Journal of Applied Physiology.

Why is JUST dieting bad news for effective weight loss the long run?

• The muscles of dieters actually became “deconditioned” because they were now carrying around a lighter load. “Once a person loses weight, his or her muscles don’t have to work as hard at every day movements, such as rising from a chair, walking up steps or getting out of a car, explains Dr. Weiss.

Dr. Weis cautions that dieting can be important for losing extra pounds in the first place, but what is most important is maintaining the new lower weight.

• “If push comes to shove and someone wanted to know if they should diet or exercise to lose weight, I would suggest exercise, provided they are willing to put in the extra time and effort and not offset the gains they make by eating more,” he said when the study was released.

Weight Loss Tips: How Much Muscle Is Needed For Best Weightloss?

Strength training is often promoted with the idea that increased muscle mass burns more calories at rest.

• This claim is overstated says the American College of Sports Medicine.

• Exercise can indeed enhance both your resting metabolic rate and the number of calories you burn post-exercise, but to what extent and how long is unclear.

While exercise boosts metabolism, dieting is known to decrease it. And the majority of studies have shown that weight training does not blunt the decline in metabolic rate that occurs with diet-induced weight loss.

• So, while there are many good reasons to exercise, especially burning calories, don’t waste your time on activities that claim to speed up your metabolism for healthy weightloss.

• Instead, choose the type of physical activity that you can sustain over the long haul – that’s the best way to get rid of pounds.

Weight Loss Tips for Keeping the Weight Off For Good!

Keeping the weight off can actually be more difficult than losing it in the first place, but when you’re committed, you will want to consider:

• Daily exercise – When you want to keep the weight off, exercise will need to become a part of your life. However, this doesn’t mean that you need to workout for hours each day. Try to fit in thirty to sixty minutes of exercise each day to keep extra weight at bay.

• Weight training – there are studies that do shown that people that have more muscle mass will burn more calories, even at rest.

So for longterm weight loss, you will want to incorporate some weight training into your weight loss maintenance plan so that as you increase your calorie intake after a diet, you will be able to burn them off without any gain.

• Getting support – You don’t have to join a club for best weight loss, but telling your friends and family about your goals can help to get everyone into supporting your efforts. When you do this, people will start to recognize that family gatherings should have healthy options as well as not always revolve around food.

• Learning “No Sweat” Exercise - Fitness experts are revising how much exercise it takes to be healthy, and for weight loss for good. They have changed their mind about aerobics workouts as such:

Weight Loss Tips: Get MORE Sleep to Lose Weight?

Researchers are finding that after only two nights of getting less than 6 hours of sleep, an "emergency" hormone kicks in to STOP burning fat.
