To get best results for weight to follow these simple tips. Weight loss is the result of these three: cardio, strength training and counting calories and macronutrients (protein, carbs, and fat). However, these three are not equal when it comes to the number of efforts you need to put it and here’s all you need to know to achieve your goal faster.


Counting calories and macros
As per fitness experts logging your food is important because it gives you a clear picture of how many calories you’re eating and helps you figure out what’s the ideal calorie deficit for you. When you start counting your calories, you become more mindful of how much you’re eating. And logging macros help you understand how much nutrition your body is getting each meal. For your weight loss plan to work you need to log calories and macros diligently.


The next step is building strength
Apparently, strength training is the best form of exercise you can do to lose weight. It helps gain denser bones, stronger ligaments, and tendons, better posture and builds muscles that help burn more calories. Building strength also helps you lead your life better.


Cardio
Apart from strength training cardio exercise is also important. Cardio is often given the most priority when it comes to weight loss. However, just doing cardio alone will not get you results. But that doesn’t mean that cardio is not important. It is good to include at least two days of cardio activity or at least 10-20 minutes of cardio workout at the end of your strength training. Another option is to do low-intensity, steady state cardio. Walking or using a stationary cycle is the perfect way to start your cardio routine.
