This is a writing sample from Scripted writer Heather Emerson
Unfortunately, there are no magic pills for fat loss. But it's possible to lose unhealthy body fat while gaining healthy lean muscle with several scientifically proven strategies.
1. Drink Matcha Green Tea
You may have heard that drinking green tea can offer a host of benefits, but have you heard about the additional perks of drinking matcha green tea?
Matcha green tea is a powdered form of green tea that contains an abundant source of antioxidants and minerals. This type of green tea is able to increase the body's metabolism and incinerate calories, even while a person is at rest. Not only is Matcha green tea able to boost thermogenesis within the body for optimal fat loss, it can also improve immune system functioning and remove harmful toxins from the body due to its high chlorophyll and fiber content.
2. Use High Intensity Interval Training
High Intensity Interval Training, also known as HIIT, is a form of exercise that increases the heart rate and burns stubborn body fat in less time than traditional cardio and strength training exercises. HIIT can be performed both indoors and outdoors.
To reap the fat burning and muscle building benefits of HIIT, HIIT should be performed at a maximum of 20 minutes per session.
3. Try Rope Training
According to William Imbo of Boxlife Magazine, rope training is a low-impact way to lose body fat fast while gaining muscle, since it places less stress on joints and ligaments. Rope training, also known as "battling ropes", is a type of exercise that enhances endurance levels and stimulates the body's ability to shed fat. There are a few effective rope training techniques that have been proven to stimulate fat loss: double waves, shoulder circles, and alternating wave jump squats.
4. Ingest Adaptogens
Adaptogens are nature's stress-reducers and well-being enhancers. They are also natural fat metabolizers that brings the body back to homeostasis and lowers cortisol levels. A few adaptogens to consider adding to your diet are astragalus, licorice root, and Siberian ginseng.
5. Supplement Your Diet
Conjugated Linoleic Acid, also known as CLA, is a good fat that is found naturally in diary and meats. Not only is CLA able to decrease body fat, it can also improve cardiovascular health, reduce instances of high blood pressure, and diminish bodily inflammation.
