. In my  last post , I stressed on how  strength training and HIIT  can help you burn fat faster. Apart from fat burning, strength training also has a ton of other benefits that I think should be known by everybody because, “No man has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable.”  W ritten by   Socrates   during 4th Century BC .  And I strongly believe in it. Socrates Now that we I have established how important  strength training  was even during the 4th century BC, let me tell you why. You'll be stronger . The only type of weight I like is  muscle weight , which makes you stronger and faster, with more endurance than a regular person. Besides, we have been given muscles for a reason, that reason is not just "moving", there's more to it. You must have seen people doing insane things with their st

Before you skip the whole content and just scroll to the best part, which is the workout you should go for is you wanna burn fat, let me make it very clear, it won't work fully, if you don't eat the right foods . 70-80% of your efforts should be your nutrition for any workout to change your body completely. But, since workouts do differ in terms of effectiveness and goals, there is a workout to burn fat faster than other workouts . Basically, I am highlighting 2 types of workouts, both of them are suitable for males and females. Let's see why these workouts stand out from the crowd in terms of effectiveness. 1. Strength Training/ Weight Training First of all, let me make three things clear before you start to wonder. No, females will not pack on muscles and get bulky by doing strength training. Most females celebrities do strength training on a regular basis and you know you want to have a body theirs. To get bulky, female bodybuilders really need to push

One of the most crucial yet ignored factors responsible for a healthy lifestyle is Sleep. The reason for your headaches, stress, dormant lifestyle and obesity is inadequate sleep. While most people are aware of the importance of sleep, they cannot manage a good night's sleep due to various reasons, be it work, exams, stress, etc. This post will highlight the importance of sleep and I will suggest you a way to get some. Sleep brings your stress levels down During 7-8 hours of good sleep, the body brings down your stress hormone (Cortisol), and produces Testosterone (male hormone) in men, and estrogen (female hormone) in women. These male and female hormones are very essential for a healthy body, and they also increase your happiness hormone (serotonin). If you've ever woken up after a good 7-8 hour sleep, you must have experienced the happiness and satisfaction. That can be not only on Sundays but every day, and your life will become happier, you

Surrounded by perspectives and opinions, no matter how false or inaccurate, people not only do nothing, but they also stop others from doing it. This reminds me of a story of a group of monkeys, I'm sure a lot of readers remember it. The story goes like this:  "A monkey was put in a cage with no roof and manageable height of the walls so it could easily climb his way out and set itself free. The moment he tried to climb the cage wall, a machine from top came and pulled him down with a hook. The monkey was now baffled and after multiple failed attempts, it finally gave up and made peace with the cage considering there was nothing it could do to change things. Soon the sun was down, and the machine was gone, the monkey had the whole night to escape the cage, but due to its past experience, it did not even try this time and stayed in the cage for the whole night. Next morning, another monkey joined it, and, like the first one, it also tried to climb the cage wall,

A few months back, BMI told me I was underweight and a victim of malnutrition . Was it true? Let's find out. What is Body Mass Index (BMI)? BMI gives you a value, which basically tells you whether you are underweight, normal weight, or obese. This value is determined by dividing your weight (in Kg) by the square of your height (in meters). Let's look at the below example to understand this in a better way: Weight:  78 kg  Height: 1.75 meters BMI ( kg/m 2 ): 78/ (1.75 x 1.75) = 25.5 This value indicates a person overweight according to his/her height. Below are the categories of weight and their respective BMI ranges that can easily be found on Google.  So what's the flaw in BMI? This whole theory is based on our weight and height. And, weight consists of 3 components: Muscle, Fat, and Water which BMI does not take into account. Let's relook at the above example: Weight:  78 kg (Of which, 8% is Fat, 70% is Water, and 22% is
