So You Constantly Fall Off Your Diet Plan?

So You Constantly Fall Off Your Diet Plan?


by Russ Howe


For the vast majority of people, figuring out how to lose weight is like rocket science. The truth is it needn't be. We live in an age where people crave instant results to the point where they actually get nowhere at all.

We all want instant results and sometimes we get lost in marketing hype or over complicated miracle procedures rather than noticing the foundations first.

The truth is we often over complicate the fat loss procedure. One of the reasons the health and fitness industry is a billion dollar business is because there are people waiting around every corner to sell you the next miracle supplement. So you're going to find people making it sound far harder than it actually is.

Before you try any products or tried jumping into the finer details of nutrition you need to lay down the basics.


Watch the simple guide on how to lose weight featuring personal trainer Russ Howe PTI.



Before you shoot for the latest celebrity diet or so-called super food, implement the basics such as working towards a calorie deficit. Eating less than you do now is the number one rule when it comes to cutting weight quickly but effectively.

You should also look to establish a good routine when it comes to your split of protein, carbohydrates and fats. The majority of us on a bad diet get way too many carbs and fats each day, yet the majority of us dieting have been brainwashed into thinking they need to cut out fats and carbs completely.

A proven split such as the 4-4-2 system, which comprises of 40% carbohydrates, 40% protein and 20% fats, is a great system to use.

It is also shown that when you snack you could do a lot worse than choosing protein as your macro nutrient of choice. The next time you feel peckish at work try to attack a food high in protein content rather than the quick carb, bad fats associated with junk food.

The most important rule, however, is perhaps one which you are least expecting. Take a day off every single week and eat what you want. By doing this you will stop yourself falling into the same old routine of crashing off your diet every month.

The next time a friend asks you for tips on how to lose weight you know what to tell them now. Implement these tips and you will see results whether it's fat loss you want or even learning how to build muscle.
