3 tricks to use if you have stubbornly fat bodyparts by: Ryan Faehnle 1. Put a strangle hold on your insulin levels to burst your spare tire Did you know that most of the foods that are being promoted as “healthy” alternatives these days will actually add thick globs of dense fat on the sides of your waist. Bagels for breakfast, sandwiches on whole-grain bread for lunch, pasta to “fuel” your workouts, and don’t forget your daily glass of orange juice! All these mainstream health foods affect a major hormone in your body called insulin. Insulin is a “building” hormone, which means it builds muscle cells and fat cells. The problem is that unless you just finished a hard weight training session, you want to keep insulin levels LOW. Just think about it. If your day looks like what I’ve mentioned above, your body is flooded with the building-hormone insulin ALL DAY. This means you’re making new fat cells 24/7. Not good! Insulin-generated fat stores tend to make their way to the love handle area, giving you the muffin-top or humpty-dumpty look. Getting rid of these fat stores is actually quite simple. Eliminate carbohydrates other than veggies from your diet except for a one-hour window after intense weight training workouts. And indulge in a single Cheat Meal once every 5-7 days. The rest of the time, half of your plate should be protein, the other half leafy-green vegetables, and you should have a side of healthy fats such as olive oil or organic butter to go along with it. That’s it, the optimal meal for insulin management!
