How To Increase Your Metabolism To Burn Arm Fat

By Katherine Crawford M.S.

Increasing your metabolism is a great way to melt the arm fat off. And I am going to show you 4 tips that will do just that. In case you didn't know, your metabolism is the amount of calories your body burns from day to day.

Also keep in mind that your metabolism is mostly under your control. Please do not buy into the outdated argument that you inherit and are stuck with a fast or slow metabolism. You see, nothing could be further from the truth!

Hopefully, with this article, you will be able to regain that control just like I did not too long ago. Here are 4 ways to regain control of your metabolism today:

1. Early exercise. Exercising early in the day is one of the best things you can do for your metabolism. Not only will you burn a surplus of calories throughout the entire day, but the majority of the food you eat will be partitioned towards all your active tissues.

2. Exercise hard and fast. You can exercise hard and fast by sweating and panting and keeping your workout under 45 minutes. You can get by with a 30 minute workout if you go hard enough. By doing this and your body will go into EPOC (exercise post oxygen consumption). This is a state in which you burn calories up to 36 hours after exercising.

3. Sip on water between meals. Dehydration can bring down your metabolism. And in between meals your body becomes dehydrated because it uses stored water to digest food. You can prevent this from happening by drinking small amounts of water in between meals. But don't go overboard or the water will get excreted through your kidneys.

4. Cut calories by very small amounts. Once your caloric intake is below 80% of your needs, your metabolism will come to a screeching halt. Your body will produce fat friendly enzymes and your thyroid will decrease its output.

Thus, dropping calories by leaps and bounds slows down arm-fat-burning. This is the main reason many women who are following 1000 calorie diets can no longer lose weight.

You see, your metabolism has the final say as to how much arm fat you are going to lose. So make sure you follow the tips in this article to keep the metabolic fires burning. - 17273
