How to Lose Fat Fast

Posted by Todd Scott under Fat Loss, Nutrition

If you’re trying to lose fat fast, there are a few ’secrets’ that are really simple once you get a handle on them.

And I’m going to give you a peak inside my ‘emergency’ system today, so hold on tight, and make sure you read this entire thing.

Three of the most important aspects of losing fat are, in order of importance:

1. nutrition
2. weight training (keeping your muscles from deteriorating)
3. cardio training for fa-t loss

Your nutrition is by far and away the most important part of your fat loss program. You can train with weights and do cardio until you turn 15 different shades of purple and you’ll still end up frustrated and confused if the nutrition part isn’t in order.

If you want to lose 8 lbz of fa-t in 4 weeks, here’s how to handle the nutrition portion…

For men, multiply your body weight (or your desired bodyweight) by 10

For women, multiply your body weight (or your desired body weight) by 8.

This number is the number of calories you should consume per day.

I’ve found it best to split it into 4-6 meals per day consisting of a ratio of 40-40-20 of protein-carbs-fa-t per meal.

I recommend you follow this protocol no longer than 4 weeks at a time. These calculations will put you in a severe calorie deficit.

This is what I call the “I wanna lose fa-t now! Nutrition Program”

It’s really easy, and REALLY effective.

However, if you follow it for more than 4 weeks, you’ll hit a sticking point and will need to make changes to your program to keep your metabolism revved at maximum capacity…

this sticking point is what I’ve named “the hamster wheel effect”

yes, it’s a technical term :)

And it occurs frequently during any program, whether you’re trying to lose fat or gain muscle.

The thing is you’ll fall in 1 of 5 different categories, and based on your progress at particular benchmarks, you’ll need to adjust your program specifically depending on the category you fall into. If you’d like to minimize the amount of time you spend on the hamster wheel or avoid it all together, you can find detailed instructions at the

Cardio is optional… I would keep it at a minimum, though, 20 minutes 3-4 days per week.

But it’s extremely important that you train with weights to make sure you reduce the amount of muscle loss, and to keep your metabolism burning at full throttle.
