The Association Between The Mind And Body

Since time immemorable, the proper technique for fast weight loss has always been an important issue with people who have to lose some unwanted fats. There are a number of ways this can be done, but basically there’s two approaches to this. First is the “crash-burn” method and next is the ‘speedy burn’ technique.

The first method would seem to many as a logical technique to achieve fat loss immediately. You exercise heavily to burn off the fats then you greatly lessen your food intake so even less fats would get into the body. Sounds reasonable enough. However, you also need to consider what they call as the mind-body connection in psychology.

Experts in this field say that the body has sensors and indicators that can detect and recognize when the body is under attack or in distress. When these sensors go off, the body will protect itself, and a survival mode is initiated. To explain this more clearly, we will discuss this mechanism in relation to burning fat fast.

This may be true to some extent, and this is what’s termed as ‘crash burn,’ where excess fat is immediately burned. However, going back to the mind-body psychology, this method may not be the ideal way to become more fit and thin. This is because when the body is not used too little food and too much exercise, the alarms in the body would go off and tag this event as something distressful or traumatic.

By the time you stop your diet or exercise, the body goes into heightened alert. It tries to protect itself by holding on to as much fat as it could to store inside the body. The metabolism of the body slows down since it wants to be prepared for this kind of situation in the future. That is why the tendency is for the body to gain all those pounds back and sometimes even more.

When you look at it initially, you would think that this method may not be effective since you would not be burning as much fat as you want at first. It would take a longer time before you lose any weight.

Keeping all these in mind, it would seem that the best way to burn fat fast is to do it slowly. That may seem contradictory, but it’s the truth. If you do crash diets and exercises, the moment you stop there’s a possibility that you will gain all that weight back, and you’re back at square one.

Whatever weight loss tips you implement to become thinner, more fit, and healthier, always consult your doctor before dieting and starting your workout exercise programs to lose weight. This is very important. As a rule, you should not start any fat loss program without seeing a doctor.
