Did you ever think that your weight loss goals could actually be setting you up for failure? When you are losing weight, realize it could be either water weight or fat loss. Here\u2019s how to lose weight and burn fat combing these 2 popular diet concepts.<\/h2>\n

Today I\u2019m going to explain several concepts of why you should not necessarily set a weight loss goal that will ultimately help you to lose weight and burn fat faster.<\/p>\n

By:\u00a0<\/strong> Tim Ernst \u2013 Founder of Body Blitz Max<\/a>, 180 Muscle<\/a> and Barbell\/Dumbbell Ripped Muscle Complexes<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

The first concept I want to talk about is the difference between muscle and fat.<\/p>\n

Muscle vs. Fat<\/h3>\n

\"weight<\/a><\/p>\n

If we take one pound of muscle and we compare it to one pound of fat, fat had more volume than muscle.<\/p>\n

Fat takes up more space in your body while muscle takes up a much smaller space.<\/p>\n

The second concept is that overweight people tend to have less muscle than fat.<\/p>\n

Now when you start a keto and a intermittent fasting plan what’s going happen is you’re going get into fat burning mode.<\/p>\n

You’re gonna lose fat but you’re also going to increase muscle. Why?<\/p>\n

Because you’re going to trigger certain hormones that will build the muscle.<\/p>\n

You got two things going on, you have a loss of fat, increased muscle and a loss of water weight.<\/p>\n

The reason for this is because you\u2019re switching our body to fat-burning and you\u2019re no longer running your body on stored glucose called glycogen.<\/p>\n

Glycogen is like a sponge, it’s like a water-filled sponge so you\u2019re not doing that anymore and therefore you\u2019ll lose a lot of water weight.<\/p>\n

In fact, when most people start any program they\u2019ll lose water weight for one to two weeks and when you see these claims that people will tell you like, \u201cyou can lose five pounds in the first week or ten pounds in the first week,\u201d that’s only for the 2 weeks.<\/p>\n

After 1-2 weeks, you’re not going to continue to do that.<\/p>\n

If anyone tells you that you can continue to do that is lying to you because the most actual fat you can lose per week is two pounds and that’s a real healthy body.<\/p>\n

So that’s another concept that you need to understand.<\/p>\n\r\n

\r\n
<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Almost every diet out there relies on ketosis for fat loss! So...<\/p>\n

How exactly do you get into ketosis? Simple!<\/p>\n

All you have to do is eat the keto recipes in this brand new FREE cookbook called:<\/p>\n

The Wicked Good Ketogenic Diet Cookbook<\/a> <=<\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n

The next concept is when you start this program and you’re losing fat and you’re gaining muscle, you may or may not lose actual overall weight.<\/p>\n

Why not? Because you’re gaining muscle. Muscle has some weight.<\/p>\n

You might plateau for a week or so, but that doesn’t mean it’s not working.<\/p>\n

If your only focus is to lose fat and not gain any muscle, then you would end up thinner but flabby with a loss of muscle tone and weakness.<\/p>\n

Is that what you really want? I think NOT! You want a strong body.<\/p>\n

When you start to do this program you’re going gain muscle.<\/p>\n

You may or may not lose actual pounds and you also may or may not lose inches.<\/p>\n

Most of the time you will, but there’s a point where you’re going to plateau because you’re gaining muscle.<\/p>\n

If your muscles are getting bigger you’re not going to continue to lose inches, you’re just going to lose the fat.<\/p>\n

Make sense?<\/p>\n\r\n

That\u2019s the advice of a top scientist at Stanford University, who discovered that combining these 4 ingredients<\/a> \u2013 which are packed full of delicious and satisfying \u201cfats\u201d \u2013 can actually \u2018flip\u2019 your metabolic switch and turn your body into a fat burner, instead of a fat storer.<\/p>\n

According to this article<\/a>, 54,893 have already used this fat burning trick to burn stubborn belly fat, shed life-changing amounts of weight, and slash their risk of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer\u2019s and cancer.<\/p>\n

What I’m basically saying is when you lose weight it’s not going to be consistent, it’s not going to be one or two pounds a week, then one or two pounds more a week and one or two pounds a week after that.<\/p>\n

This is simply because we’re not just talking about fat, we’re talking about muscle as well and that\u2019s what you want.<\/p>\n

You want to actually develop your muscles, you want it to be strong, you don’t want loss of muscle tone that’s called atrophy.<\/p>\n

Many people have muscle atrophy especially women who are going through menopause.<\/p>\n

More Muscle = More Fat Loss<\/h3>\n

\"weight<\/a><\/p>\n

The next concept is, the more muscle that you do develop the better your metabolism will be.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s true that the more muscle you have the more calories you\u2019ll burn because muscle is more metabolic.<\/p>\n

The confusion that people have is that if the muscle is burning more calories what type of calories is it burning?<\/p>\n

Is it burning actual fat calories or is it burning actual sugar calories.<\/p>\n

This is where people that are doing a higher carbohydrate diet are really frustrated because they’re just burning up their sugar calories.<\/p>\n

They’re exercising at the gym developing more muscles and then burning more calories but, they’re burning off their sugar calories and not actual fat.<\/p>\n\r\n

What you want to do is you want to switch your body to a better metabolic machine to develop and build more muscle so that you\u2019ll burn off fat calories.<\/p>\n

What determines what you burn is the amount of carbohydrates in the diet.<\/p>\n

If you cut your carbs down then your body will be forced to burn fat and it won’t burn sugar anymore.<\/p>\n

The cool thing is that when you build more muscles you have a better metabolism.<\/p>\n

Testosterone and Estrogen<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The last concept is your hormones.<\/p>\n

The difference between men and women are really two different hormones.<\/p>\n

Women have way more estrogen than men and men have way more testosterone than women.<\/p>\n

Estrogen gives the fat layer around a female body.<\/p>\n

That’s why women have a different composition than men.<\/p>\n

This is why your husband or your boyfriend tends to lose weight faster because they’re not dealing with this estrogen problem.<\/p>\n

I know it’s frustrating but my only point is that the better you understand what you’re up against the less frustrated you will be but basically it’s really the estrogen that’s slowing things down.<\/p>\n

Here’s what I would recommend.<\/p>\n

Weight loss goals you can have, but don’t make that as your main goal. Have several goals.<\/p>\n

For example you can have an inches lost goal, a weight loss goal, a health goal or a muscle goal to make you stronger.<\/p>\n

Over time you should be able to do more and more with your body and having stronger muscles.<\/p>\n

Thee are the three goals that I would recommend in addition to just having more energy, better sleep, etc because my philosophy is not to lose weight to get healthy but to get healthy so that you\u2019ll be able to lose the weight.<\/p>\n

Conclusion:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The ketogenic diet is the hottest diet of 2018 because it helps you quickly lose stubborn fat\u2026 it reduces fat storing inflammation\u2026 it helps you live longer and avoid today\u2019s most deadly diseases.<\/p>\n

But there are\u00a0several<\/em>\u00a0problems that accompany a “traditional”\u00a0high fat keto diet:<\/p>\n
