6 tips on the way to your ideal weight

6 tips to achieve your ideal weight

1. Set a realistic goal

Don't strive for model parameters. Your ideal weight is the one at which you feel good and your tests are normal.

2. Change your weight gradually

Safe rate of weight change:

3. Eat enough protein

Protein preserves muscle when losing weight and helps build it when gaining. Norm: 1.2-2.0 g per kg of body weight.

4. Don't eliminate entire food groups

Low-carbohydrate and low-fat diets give temporary results. A balanced diet is the key to long-term success.

5. Do strength training

Muscle increases basal metabolism. Each kilogram of muscle tissue burns 13 kcal per day more than a kilogram of fat.

6. Control your stress

Cortisol, a stress hormone, promotes the accumulation of fat in the abdominal area. Practice meditation, walking, breathing exercises.
