Interval Training
High intensity intervals otherwise known as HIIT training can significantly increase fat burning. When your body is recovering, the aerobic system uses oxygen to convert stored carbohydrate / glucose into energy. Several studies have shown that interval training groups lose more stomach fat in half the workout time when compared with regular steady state cardio workout session.

Only eat whole foods
Eating less processed foods that are high in fats, sugars and refined carbohydrates and changing to more natural foods is a great way of lowering total calorie intake. When it comes to wholegrain foods, go for produce such as for quinoa, which contains more protein than any other natural grain making it great for vegetarians as well. Quinona is an excellent source of manganese, which is a great regulator of blood glucose levels.

Set achievable goals
Finding ways to trick yourself into making positive lifestyle changes such as buying new clothes that are too small for you, is a great way of focusing your mind on the goals ahead. The direction is less ‘don’t eat this’ (negative) and more ‘I’m going to look and feel great’ (positive). The added bonus to this method is that you both get insape and you get a brand new wardrobe at the same time.
