How to Burn Fat and Gain Muscle At the Same Time?

By Donnie Sherman

Hundreds of products come out every single day claiming to help you burn fat and build muscle in minutes, days or weeks. These products never work! And you know it. You either end up using that product and screwing yourself up, or you listen to others who bought the product and screwed themselves up.

Of course there are some that DO work, but they are short cuts that don't give permanent results. Most of the products come up with a single routine to follow forever. Your body adapts to any routine within 4 weeks. Don't you wonder why you suddenly get stuck when trying to burn fat and build muscle?

Did you know that muscle burns a lot of fat just to survive in your body? Therefore, the easiest way to burn fat and build muscle is by actually focus on building muscle, and the fat will just go away helping your muscle to grow in the process!

1. Got for total body exercises that target major muscle groups like Chinups, Squats and Deadlifts. These exercises work the major muscle groups to their greatest potential, and also utilize the smaller muscle fibers in the process. This is a great way to burn fat while building muscle.

2. If you want real muscle growth, you need to work hard in every workout. Go to your max. Compete against yourself in your previous workout. If you did 8 reps Bench Press with 150 lbs last week, go for 9 or 10 reps with the same weight in your next workout. Or increase your weight and train to failure. Keep progressing in every workout.

3. If you want to BURN FAT and build muscle, then you can't just keep everything at sight. Building muscle doesn't give you permission to go dirty on food. You need to eat clean. Stick to organic food, whole grain carbs and lean protein and you are good to go.

4. Don't overtrain yourself. Get atleast 8 hours of sleep everyday. The growth hormone levels are high when you are asleep helping your body to recover faster and build more muscle. The more tired and stressed out you remain, the less growth your body will face.

5. Focus on free weights and body weight exercises. Never use a machine unless it is for something like a kneeling cable crunch which is a great exercise for the abs.

The 5 simple tweaks or one would say changes to your current efforts can bring great results to your progress in the future. You will lose a lot of fat and get more ripped and defined if you follow the steps accordingly to achieve your dream body in no time! - 17273
