Tone Up: Muscle Definition
Want that fitness magazine cover model look? That lean, defined, muscular look that sets you apart from everyone else in the gym and turns heads on the beach? Ask any experienced gym user, and they’ll tell you that you won’t lose fat and build muscle by spending every waking hour in the gym. You’ll just burn out. Instead, you need to use your head and feed your body what it needs. All it takes is a little know-how…
- Exercise regularly
To get lean and defined, regular exercise is a must. To strip away fat and increase your muscle definition, do some type of resistance exercise (i.e. weight training) 2-3 times per week and gradually add cardiovascular training (e.g. jogging or cycling) to your routine (2-3 times per week). - Eat 5-6 meals a day
Grazing rather than gorging boosts your metabolic rate, reduces hunger by stabilising blood sugar levels, and keeps your energy levels high. The easiest way to do this is to have your breakfast, lunch and dinner as normal, then use a meal replacement bar, such as a Promax Meal bar, as a mid-morning and mid-afternoon snack. - Include protein in each meal
You’ll build muscle and lose fat faster when you eat protein every few hours. You can use Promax at any time of the day to raise the protein content of your diet, such as having it as a delicious shake at breakfast, adding it to your cereal, or mixing it with yogurt for a quick and easy protein-rich bedtime snack to help combat muscle breakdown at night. - Take Promax 5-10 minutes after exercise
Scientific studies show that taking protein after exercise could help you build muscle size and strength faster. Because it’s digested so quickly, Promax is perfect for use immediately after exercise. - Use a fat-burner to speed up weight loss
It’s frustrating go to the gym regularly, eat the right foods, and see little or nothing in the way of results. Fat-burners, such as Thermobol and Maxi- EFA will help you get better results faster from your diet and exercise routine. - Use Creatine for size and strength
Creatine is one of the most popular sports nutrition products available for anyone who wants more muscle definition. Studies show that people using creatine in combination with a weight-training programme could gain muscle size and strength faster.
