HOW TO CREATE A CALORIC DEFICIT

Most people wonder so much how to cut some weight and look their best, and the secrets is one (caloric deficiency state). It doesn’t matter whether you are doing keto, intermittent fasting, cycling or whatever, you must be in a caloric deficit to lose weight, let me explain why.

Whenever we eat food, we supply the body with nutrients mainly carbohydrates, proteins and fats and all these contain a certain amount of energy that when metabolised (broken down) they give off. Then the body utilizes that energy for your daily physical activities, metabolism and other processes, so in case you eat a lot (a surplus) your body will use what it needs and the excess will be stored as fat and when you eat less food, that means fewer calories and so instead of the excess energy being stored as fat, your body will go to the fat stores, burn down that fat and utilize that energy.

So how do we make sure we eat calories below what is required by our body so that we can tap into those fat cells?

We can do two things:

1. Eat about the exact calories our bodies require and create the deficit by exercising and to me steady state cardiovascular exercises like jogging, walking, skipping, boxing etc are what I find best to burn the most calories.

2.We can straight away eat less calories and exercise just comes to supplement the weight loss to make sure we hit that deficit.

NOTE: You cannot out train a bad diet (diet very high in calories) because it is very hard and takes hours to burn say 1000+ calories but it is quite easy to just avoid eating 1000 calories. That is why diet is very important when it comes to losing weight.

You realize that all the two ways require you to know your required daily caloric intake, so to find that out just get an online calorie calculator and fill in your details, this will give you an estimate and you can start from that then adjust accordingly if you find that its too high or too low and that will show on the scale weeks when you try to monitor your weight.

And that sums it up, that is how you create a caloric deficit. GOOD LUCK
