Your Best Weight Loss Ally

Weight loss is about the ability to move. One should appreciate the ability to move and take advantage of it to the fullest extent. In fact, there are few body fat candidates who realize that exercise (intentionally activating your ability to move) provides the most monumental force for losing weight. For example, even children utilize your best weight loss ally - MOVEMENT.

Compared to eating healthy, low-fat or low carbohydrate foods, plus counting calories... activating your ability to move takes excess fat away from your body by enhancing your metabolism. Yet, still (in addition to improving weight loss ability), there is more reason to appreciate and utilize your number one weight loss ally.

Imagine for just a moment that you are without an arm or missing one of your legs. Now, try this small yet enlightening experiment. Choose one or the other (missing one arm, or missing one leg). Then, simply lie down flat on your carpeted floor (or, use a floor mat on hard surfaces, for added protection). Now, just try to stand up!

What does this little experiment have to do with losing body fat? It shows you how to summon your best weight loss ally. And, here is the big weight loss secret. Losing body fat is all about creating ACTION. In fact, you have to move your body around at exactly 115 heart beats per minute, just to activate the fat-burning metabolic sequence.

And, this sequence contains a complete chain of about five or six events that start with transporting your cellular chemicals, and it ends with placing your broken-down food ingredients into what you call a mitochondrial FURNACE.

This mitochondrial furnace is nothing but the inside of each of your body cells that has the power to oxidize (transform) fat into its final by-products: heat, sweat, and exhaled air.

Using movement as your weight loss ally, you complete the weight loss process. It starts with movement. Therefore, your capacity to accelerate turns out to be your finest, most effective, and most dependable weight loss ally.

Have you ever seen a child huffing and puffing, nearly grasping for every bit of fresh air that surrounds him or her? Yet, at the same time, there is this big smile, plus a wonderful look of exhilaration on that kid's face because, if you notice, the child is highly engaged in the act of MOVEMENT. This is their secret weight loss tool -- the ongoing method in which children manage to remain slim, trim, lean, energetic, and happy. They MOVE... a LOT.

Adults usually have to lovingly restrain kids from moving... providing well-meant warnings like... OKAY, SIT STILL NOW. Or, STOP JUMPING AROUND SO MUCH.

Ironically, the child is actually showing YOU how to lose weight and keep it off - while neither of you even may realize what you are doing.

Children can be your best weight loss ally, as losing weight is all about movement - and this is what they do.
