Lose Those last few pounds with sleep
A study at eastern Virginia Medical School found learner people sleep an average of two hours more each week than overweight people. Researchers believe lack of sleep leads to hormonal changes that contribute to weight gain, specifically lower levels of Leptin, an appetitie-suppressing hormone, and higher levels of ghrelin, appetite-boosting Hormone. For a difference of only two hours extra sleep a week everyone could simply add 17 minutes a day. Either go to bed a few minutes earlier or set your alarm a bit later. Even people with jampacked schedules should be able to get a few extra winks and perhaps find themselves a little thinner in the waist.
Distance Running, biking and swimming

Your Key vitamins

Rules to burn the fat
1. Everyone who wants to be in shape needs to burn the fat . Here are some
rules to burn the fat quickly. Some people say that exercising first early in
the morning on an empty stomach gives them the quickest fat loss
results that way. The reason for this is that your body’s glycogen
reserves have been exhausted due to the overnight fast, so the body has to
rely on burning fats for fuel. However, if you do not like to weight
train at the beginning of the day, at least try a quick 20 minute brisk
walk. Or do some kind of cardio or ab exercises to burn the fat and get the
results.
2. Most of the bodybuilders start a crash diet where they only eat once or twice a day as well as increasing cardiovascular activity. Again, this is a sure fire way to lose muscle and lower your metabolism. And it’s not a right thing to do. As we already know, how anyone can achieve his goals without having a faster metabolism rate. Because it is zaroori.
In order to keep the metabolism going at full speed and the blood sugar levels under control to keep energy levels high and cravings away, 5 to 6 small balanced meals a day is the way to go. When I say balanced meals what I mean is that each meal should contain all of the macronutrients carbohydrates, protein and fats in. Eat smaller more frequent meals throughout the day will boost your metabolism.
3. The 3rd Point is you must go to your bed early because the lack of sleep increases your hormone cortisol, which is a hormone that stores fat and burns muscle (in other words, it does the exact opposite of what you are trying to accomplish), and decreases your testosterone levels (which need to be high in order to keep your fat burning and muscle gaining process going at full speed). You must have a sleep of seven to eight hours, which is generally a good rule to burn fats. As it's said early to bed early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.
