How to lose body fat seems to be a question that many people make in their lifetime. The older you get, the easier it is to gain fat. It seems no one can avoid gaining weight when they get older. The metabolism changes and/or they become less active. They stop growing taller and start growing wider. Although, an answer exists.

While exercising our muscles burn both fat and glucose (carbohydrates in the blood) in different proportions. Depending on how an individual exercises muscle can burn fat in a larger proportion to glucose. When activity is light and easy we tend to burn a much higher percentage of fat.

Fat burning tips

• Burning fat requires continuous smooth movements so learn to develop a rhythmic style when exercising

• Breath slightly deeper and use a little more lung capacity for effective fat burning

• Do not hold breath during exercise!
