How To Get A Lean Body: Proven Methods That Work

By Yuri Elkaim, BPHE, CK, RHN

The grocer isles are lined with magazine covers boasting the best bodies in the fitness industry. You probably think they either carry exceptional genes, or spend countless hours slaving away on gym equipment each week. Think again.  Learn how to get a lean body through these proven methods.

How you train
Sure, you need to spend a considerable amount of time training to see results. However, increasing the demand on your body for shorter durations is far more effective than spending long hours in the gym.

Full body interval workouts offer you the best of both worlds. You build lean quality muscle while torching stubborn fat. This works by strength training with heavy weights with little rest between sets. Most full body workouts require super sets, metabolic circuit training, and some form of high intensity interval exercise.

How often you train
Building a lean body requires that you spend as little as 3 days per week training. In a few 30 to 60 minute sessions, you gain strength, functionality, and increase your vitality. The more stress you put on your muscle during a given workout, the less time you need to spend training. Increasing your load and limiting your rest periods keeps your heart rate up throughout the duration of your training session.

When you see changes
Intense full body workouts increase the demand on your muscles causing muscle fibers to tear.  Your body responds during rest by generating new muscle cells that grow quality muscle mass. The more lean muscle your body carries, the more calories you burn throughout the day.

Thus, your rest periods are as essential as your training periods. By allowing your body to adequately recover, you regain energy and increase your strength with each training session.

Why nutrition is important
Intense interval and circuit training fully depletes your body’s glycogen and robs your muscles of protein stores. Total depletion allows you greater nutrient uptake immediately after you train. The better your nutrient uptake, the quicker you recover from your training.

Nutrient dense whole foods are the key to your success. It is imperative that you eat before and after each training session to properly fuel your body and help regenerate new tissue. A diet rich in lean protein sources, healthy fibrous vegetables, complex carbohydrates, and heart-healthy fats will improve the overall quality of your health.
