I had not been down to the beach jogging since last year and it was one of the main reasons we moved to this part of the country. But when my friend said he was getting good results with a normal jog and eating foods real high in the omega fats, I knew I had to investigate. What did he know that I didn't about this fat burning exercise?
Oils are vital to our health and I'm not here to preach oils in your diet, but I found something out about them that absolutely was an ah-ha moment for me. We need a certain amount of good fats in our diet because they are essential to cell growth and heath. Then with carbs, these are used main for fuel for our muscles. But how does that help me burn fat?
I had no clue in the area of muscle food. Didn't we learn in school that the food for muscles was always the sugars in our system? Isn't that why kids that eat a lot of sugar are bouncing off the walls? But what I didn't know was that sugars are like gasoline on a fire. They burn quickly and create a ton of energy and then are gone. So how does the good oil fit into the equation?
It turns out that the body can also use oil, the good oils, to burn as fuel. Oils are converted into food the muscle can use and it actually burns more efficiently and much longer than sugars. In addition, oils actually allow for the continual burning of fat cells, so when the muscle is working with oil as fuel, it also turns to the fat cells and uses them. And it happens like this.
People who ride bikes have been studied. It's been shown that they have excellent legs, but their abdominals are weak. This is because of the sport they are in targets that one muscle group. And what they eat is a big player, too. If they eat foods rich in carbs, they burn quickly and don't normally burn much body fat. If they eat foods rich in the omega oils, they burn slowly and the body fat is involved as well.
Swimming is a good overall exercise, but doesn't target the abdomen either. Other similar exercises that can be performed at length will burn fat in the muscle groups they are targeting and if proteins rich in the omegas are used, the fat percentage of the body actually drops. Targeting muscle groups like sit-ups, lifting free weights, all help along with the special diet. And then there are exercises that don't help much at all.
Short sprints, golf, basketball, tennis, really anything where you are using short spurts of energy, your muscles will look first for sugars to supply high energy in bursts. As you work longer aerobic exercises, the body starts burning fat. And when you get to that level, the body will continue to look for fat as fuel. But which exercises are the best for fat burning?
Turns out anything that takes a long time to accomplish and keeps using a steady rate of energy is the best for fat burning - especially if you do not load up on carbs before you perform it. When muscles use sugar, they look for more sugar before they turn to fats. The best advice is to not eat at all after you exercise for up to one hour so your body continues to burn those fats. And where might you find a program that involves the great oils and fat burning?
