Easy Mistakes That Cause Failure When Your Goal Is Losing Weight
By: Randall Gartman

I have really researched why people generally fail at getting healthy and fit and you might be surprised to find out it isn't your lack of willpower or some genetic defect in your body. The medical industry has almost convinced a huge population of overweight people that they are fat because of their genetics and it is appalling.

I won't get into that right now but I will tell you that if you believe your are helpless to some genetic defect, it will limit your success before even start. I mean, how much effort do you think you will actually put into something if you think you will only get minimal results?

Here are a few easy mistakes you can make.

Easy Mistake# 1: Trying to lose weight. If you are trying to lose weight, you are already defeated before you start. Stepping on a scale is not a true test of your body composition. If you are participating in an exercise program and you gain some muscle, the scale is basically lying to you and telling you that you put on weight. If you are trying to monitor your results, you need to check your Body Fat percentages.

If you step on a scale to find out if you are losing weight and your exercise program put some muscle on you, then you subconsciously tell yourself that your plan isn't working, even if it is. Since you don't want to keep doing a program that isn't working, you decide to find something else that will.

Which leads me to easy mistake #2.

Easy Mistake #2: Being Impatient. Most people don't continue longer than 30 days on any diet and exercise program. This can be for a variety of reasons but primarily it is because their results aren't working fast enough. However, some other reasons people are impatient is because they have stepped on a scale (see above), their exercise routine is debilitating and they have been convinced their food needs to taste bad to be healthy.

Since nobody wants to eat nasty tasting food or exercise in a gym until they drop, they quickly lose interest in any long term weight loss goals.

Choosing a moderate exercise program, staying off the scale and really learning how to truly balance your meals with tasty recipes will help tremendously but there is one more important thing you must know.

Most plans don't even really kick into high gear until 30 days have passed, especially if you have been shutting down your metabolism with YO-YO dieting.

Easy Mistake #3: Poor exercise choices in the gym! People want to lose fat around the belly, hips and thighs so they concentrate on those areas most. That sounds reasonable but it doesn't help you very much when you are trying to lose fat.

You can't spot reduce your fat in certain areas and many of the exercises for Abdominal's, Hips and Thighs are very small exercise movements and burn the fewest calories. You could actually be spending hours in the gym killing yourself on these small exercise movements and getting very little results. Even though some very small muscles seem to be working (you gauge your results by the pain you feel) , your body fat won't disappear until you choose better exercise movements.

Here is a big industry whopper for you!

--If you want to lose fat, you need to do cardio.

The fitness industry will have you believe that if you want to lose weight you need to do more cardio, however, that is not entirely true. I see people all the time in the gym doing hours of cardio but they still look the same after months or even years.

First, you must know your effective cardio training ranges if you want to burn the most fat.

Also, if your aerobic exercise program is not combined with resistance training (lifting weights) to at least maintain your current muscle mass, you cannot effectively accelerate the fat loss process.

Each pound of lean muscle tissue burns 35-50 calories a day while your body is at rest. Whereas body fat is not metabolically active, so little to no fat is burned for each pound of body fat.

Losing weight requires a proper mixture of aerobic exercise and resistance training and this exercise combination is the only thing that will enable you
to rapidly burn that stubborn fat. You don't need a two hour workout in a commercial gym. With the proper fitness and nutrition system in place, you can quickly burn fat, lose weight and feel great in as little as 30 minutes per session - exercising in the privacy of your home only 3 times per week. And in 12 weeks you can dramatically transform your body.
