Before we get into the training plan, let’s discuss diet quickly.
Diet For Weight Loss
It’s a no-brainer, to lose weight, you need to eat less. Okay, that was obvious. ‘But how do you do it?’ is the main question.
The easiest way, is simply by eating the right foods. If you eat the right foods, the weight will naturally fall off your body.
So, ‘what foods do you need to eat?’ Good question. You need to eat whole foods. Again, I can hear you cry, “but what are whole foods?”
Whole foods are foods that have one single ingredient. They haven’t gone through and manufacturing process to increase their shelf life, they don’t have added salts, sugars, or fats, and they come from animals, or the land.
Whole Foods Sources:
- Wild rice
- Potatoes
- Fruits
- Meats
- Nuts and seeds
knowing which foods to eat i.e. whole foods – it also makes sense to know which foods to avoid.
You’ll want to avoid foods that have been through numerous processes, with other ingredients added to them during a manufacturing process.
These foods are often filled with unhealthy fats, sugars, and preservative which the body finds difficult to digest.
Non Whole Food Sources:
- White pasta
- Cakes
- Cereals
- Processed meats
- Cheese and other dairy sources
If possible, avoid these foods at all costs. They will only make it more difficult for you to lose weight around your thighs.
Hydration
The next step in this diet, and training plan to lose weight around your thighs, is hydration.
Many people overlook hydration, and what an important effect, both positive and negative it can have on the body.
Ideally, you’ll want to drink small glasses of water throughout the day. This will help to prevent you from drinking too much water in one go (if you’re not used to drinking water frequently). It will also keep you hydrated through the entire day.
Often, too many people end up drinking too much water when they start training, due to a fear of becoming dehydrated. There’s a fine balance between drinking too much, and too little for optimal health. It’s up to you to find that balance.Just don’t over do it by drinking gallons per day.
Hydration Tips:
- Keep water with you at all times.
- Drink in small amounts.
- Green tea, and black coffee and healthy choices.
- Avoid beverages filled with numerous ingredients.
Just like with food, the same rule applies here. Avoid any beverages that contain more than one ingredient.
For example: soda, and coffee with cream and sugar all have numerous ingredients that will only add to the total amount of calories that you’re consuming each day.
There’s also been a large misconception regarding sports drinks in recent year, and if they are suitable for most people in the public.
Unless you’re an elite athlete, and it’s your job to train for several hours a day. Then it’s been recommended that you should avoid these sports drinks, as they’re filled with large amounts of sugar. Something an average gym going won’t fully utilize.
Supplements
If you really want to kick it up a notch, then, you might consider using a quality fat burner.
Fat burners work to speed up the metabolism, suppress the appetite, and create a thermogenic effect in the body – another important factor that helps you to lose weight.
Benefits of fat burners:
- Boost fat loss
- Lose weight around thighs
- Suppress appetite
- Have more energy
