Every day, more people come to the realization that the best way to lose fat is by heavy resistance training, which forces your body to build muscle. Building muscle takes time during resting, and burns massive amounts of energy, which will be called from stored fat - effectively meaning you will be burning fat all day long. This is a fact.
This article will deal with a wonderful way of tripling the results of the resistance training you have to be doing. As you may or may not know, in resistance training the sessions should be very short and infrequent - around 20 minutes per session and 2 to 3 sessions per week.
When you are resistance training in order to lose fat, you have to work smarter - you can't afford to be the simple Gym Guy or Girl. Here is where the trick comes in.
In most resistance training exercises, there are 3 stages of what you are doing. Let's say you are doing bicep curls with dumbbells or barbells. The 3 stages are:
Positive stage: While you are still lifting the weight.
Neutral stage: While you have lifted the weight maximally and are about to start lowering the weight.
Negative stage: The lowering of the weight.
Now, everyone focuses just on the lift and forgo the neutral and negative stages. In reality, those stages are VERY important - if you focus equally on those stages too, it will mean that every possible muscle fiber is being stressed; and new pathways to your muscles are being opened.
Simply focusing on these different stages will massively increase the benefit you will be getting from the same amount of exercising time.
More benefit = More muscle to be built at the same time = More fat to be burned at the same time... and this equals to, more fat burned while you are resting. Give this a try - you won't be disappointed...
