Whether you are heavier and want to lose weight or you want to trim that last little bit of belly fat, these 5 methods will help you. Picture a rainy day.Some people dread the rain, others love it. What's the difference between them? Perspective. - Some people dread cardio, others love it. - Some people can't stand to exercise, others love it. - Some people don't want to drink water or control themselves, others love the benefits of self-discipline. If you fall into the category of disliking exercise, ask yourself why. Here are a few answers I've heard over the years:
Are you starting to see how these perspectives start to add up against you? "If you fail, it's not you, it's the system you're using."

Exercise hurts because most people go from 0 to 100 right away. They believe they need to workout their absolute hardest right away. This is a fallacy that traps many beginners. Sitting on the couch is easy! Cake is delicious! Is that what your purpose in life is? Not a chance. You're so much more than that. My Jiu-Jitsu coach told me "you have time, just stop doing something else." How much time do you spend on social media? 1 hour a day? 3 hours? What if you only needed 30 minutes of exercise a day to reach your goals? This is for you. The 5 Simple Ways to Lose Weight1. Get more sleepInsane right? The 1st and most important item on this list is sleep. Go figure. Studies show, the difference between 5 hours of sleep per night vs 8 hours is a 60% difference in hormone function. Your hormones determine your weight. Especially the ones that come from your thyroid. 2. Get more stepsGet a step tracker. If you're serious about losing weight, buy one or download a step tracking app on your phone. Going from 3,000 steps per day to 6,000 steps is, get this, double the amount of calories burned. Or is it? EPOC or Exercise Post Oxygen Consumption increases the more your activity increases. Look at it like compound interest. The more money in your bank, the more money that accumulates. Looking at the long term, if you get 6-15k steps in per day, you are increasing the amount of energy (calories) your body burns exponentially. What's better is that you are teaching your body to use fat for energy instead of carbs. Get more steps. 3. Lower your stressEasier said than done, I know. If you can make time for self-care, de-stressing activities, reduce chronic stressful areas in your life, and make your body more tolerant to stress you will absolutely lose weight. 4. Breathe BetterCheck out my article on Breath here. If you breathe better, you live better. How you breathe affects your stress levels and how much energy your body produces. Your breath is also a factor in whether your body uses fat for energy or not. 5. Eat LessHaha, that one is the hardest. Food is amazing. However, you don't need as much food as you think you do. Grains are the most abundant in meals, yet are the least important to your nutrient profile. Vegetables are the least abundant, but are the most important. Meat is amazing. The saying "live below your means" stands out here. "Eat below your expenditure."
