Exchange is a process that is passed on to a person by inheritance. If nature has endowed you with slow metabolism that does not allow you to even “sniff” starchy and fatty foods, remember the secrets with which you can accelerate it.
1. H2O
Water is a strong natural oxidizer. The human body is composed of 70% water, and it is naturally essential for normal living activities. One of the most actively discussed issues today is the norm of drinking balance. Physicians recommend that it is calculated by a formula: 35 ml of clean drinking water per 1 kg of body weight.
However, you must take individual actions for intense sweating during training. You should drink water: after waking up, 10-20 minutes before the main meals, after emptying your bladder, just during the day, during the workout and after the end of the workout.
Also help to accelerate metabolism and water procedures – contrast shower, alternating hot baths with cool showers. If possible, be sure to include swimming in both the pool and open water on the menu of cardio training.
You want to lose weight and get rid of cellulite on your hips and buttocks? Begin with a protein diet, reduce salt intake, drink a lot of slightly mineralized alkaline water.
2. Diet
Those who need to accelerate their metabolism are advised to follow a diet of protein-carbohydrate rotation. Its 7-day scheme is as follows:
- a day without carbs;
- maximum protein, minimum carbohydrate;
- high carbohydrate day;
- to exclude any carbohydrates;
- protein-low carbohydrate menu;
- high carbohydrate day with minimum fat + vitamin D + alcoholic beverage (in the evening, after workout);
- a low-carbohydrate day.
3. Magic food
It’s been proven that breakfast doesn’t accelerate metabolism. It’s about how much and what you eat in the morning. That’s a good point:
- on protein days – cutoff bread, eggs, beef, wholemeal porridge (buckwheat, oatmeal);
- on carbohydrate days, fruits and berries, sweet vegetables, beetroots, pumpkins, carrots, tomatoes;
- on low carbohydrate days, dairy and fermented milk products.
By the way, skipping a morning meal (with 5-6 meals a day) can be effective in reducing the daily calorie intake, but it will have a negative impact on evening work capacity, even if you have a big lunch.
It has also been proven that fractional nutrition does not increase the rate of metabolic processes. If you are not haunted by hunger attacks while you are awake, you can safely eat only 2 times a day. There is no need to be afraid of weight gain, you can count on a decrease in liver fat levels and increase the sensitivity of tissues to the insulin hormone. Have breakfast from 6:00 to 10:00, and lunch from 12:00 to 4:00.
To speed up your metabolism, stick to the above proposed diet system, and on ‘allowed’ days do not forget to enrich your diet as much as possible:
- citrus, especially grapefruit (preferably red);
- with a cherry fresco, fresh or frozen cherries;
- hot sauces, mustard, garlic, red pepper, ginger;
- cinnamon, turmeric, spicy herbs;
- with apple, rice and balsamic vinegar;
- pickled olives, capers;
- grenades, purple berries, pineapples;
- flaxseed and salmon fish (Omega-3 sources);
- white, yellow or green tea, natural coffee, energy tonics with guarana, sour frescos or smoothies.
4. Physical load
In order to get better, lovers of sweets with slow metabolism, you need to burn calories through exercise. There’s no other way. Here is the plan of how to distribute the type of load, depending on the day proposed above protein-carbohydrate rotation scheme:
- the day off;
- working with biceps, back muscles and the press;
- in the morning, cardio practice, in the evening, focus on chest muscles and triceps;
- the day off;
- running practice with maximum distance;
- attention to buttocks, quadriceps, hip biceps and calf muscle;
- cardiac training in the morning, work with deltoid, trapezoidal and shoulder muscles in the evening.
5. Sports, pharmaceutical and herbal products
