Losing weight is tackled in a variety of ways by a variety of people, some approaches reap success, whilst others fail. Here are 5 different weight loss methods that, if done well, are proven to help you burn that body fat.

1. A Restrictive Diet

With limited food sources, fixed eating times and food quantities, this old school method of eating six small meals a day consisting of ridiculously small quantities of unseasoned chicken breast and boiled broccoli, can work. Will it necessarily work? If the calories are off, no. Is it the only way to get lean, hell no! It does not only bother us at Camp Fitness that you do not get enough micronutrients and variety of food using this approach, but if portion sizes are not adequate, a one-size-fits-all diet can kill the initial motivation to get fit, as it will still yield no results. Not to speak of developing eating disorders. This one is in our opinion, a clear fitness faux pas.

2. Eating Clean

No one true definition of what eating clean is, truly exists, unless your food was sponsored by Rexoguard, that is. Lame jokes aside, this usually refers to eating wholesome micronutrient dense food, ideally as unproccessed as possible. We are obviously pro-healthy eating, but eating healthy is NOT the equivalent of eating at a caloric deficit. Many people can simply cut out junk food and lose some inches off their waist, that is a step in the right direction, but it is not enough. It is also necessary to weigh the food you eat, as in our experience most people will find themselves overeating “healthy fats” and “natural sugars” in no time. (Think nuts and honey; delish! That’s why we eat too much).

3. A Flexible Meal Plan

This is what we do when we want to shed bodyfat effectively. We design a meal plan for ourselves and for our all our clients, according to a goal caloric intake, but including a blend of foods, both “clean” foods and the occasional tasty treat or meal. Rather than needing cheat meals, why should YOU not CHOOSE what to eat on a meal plan, and make alterations to the portion sizes or make substitutions where possible? This way the potential for setbacks is drastically cut as one can eat tasty food, like pasta, chocolate, ice cream and all the rest, everyday, so long as in moderation.

4. Counting Calories

This is also one we recommend for all people trying to stay fit, though we do not recommend that beginners jump straight into counting calories. It is a scientific fact that eating 1200 calories consisting only of ice cream versus consuming 1200 calories comprising a blend of whole foods rich in micronutrients and high in fiber will produce similar fat loss. Yet, the former will have a negative impact on health. Also diet adherence when just tracking calories and treating all foods equally can be difficult as some are not yet mentally ready for making the big jump and controlling all their food portions with no exception. Generally, a person will be ready to count calories after a year or two of adherence to a proper fitness meal plan and lifestyle. This is what we do to maintain a fit physique year round at camp fitness. You can clearly just eat healthy and get fat, but get your calories right and all your bases will be covered.

5. Tracking Macros

This one is a definitive must for physique related competitors and those who work in the fitness industry. However, for the general public it generally adds a further layer of complexity to one’s diet, making its learning curve steeper. Adherence will also be more challenging when counting macros. This is mainly because rather than one number for calories one would have to track three separate digits for protein, carbohydrates and fat, then try to fit their daily food within those numbers. It offers a small edge to physique competitors trying to diet down to single digits of bodyfat without leaving room for error, or perhaps suits the hardcore gymrat who does not mind all the counting, or even finds it entertaining. Other than that, counting macros should be off the menu for those looking to get lean for the beach, as it is an unneccessary complexity which may lead to obsessive tendencies, unless one takes the day with a grain of salt. Generally those who have been counting calories for some years, find it easier to track macros without going insane, but still these find it hard to track macros to the gram all year round.

FINAL VERDICT

We recommend sticking to a flexible meal plan designed by someone with real world flexible dieting experience (stay on the lookout for restrictive diets, frequently sold by health and fitness “professionals” and “experts”) reaching your goals, then slowly moving on to count calories, eventually doing it instinctively and staying fit for life!

BONUS TIP: Questions to ask oneself when sticking to a meal plan;

  • Do I like the food in it, and do I already eat it regularly?
  • Who did I get the meal plan from, does he or she have experience eating a variety of foods and staying lean? does he or she use performance enhancing drugs to look fit, if so, am I ready to take that step?
  • Does it look like something I can manage for life, also can I tweak it when I reach my goals or will I have to go “OFF” the diet?
  • Is the amount of food enough to keep me full, does it agree with my body and does it effect any illness I suffer from?
  • Are there enough choices for every meal?
  • Am I just trusting someone because he is “qualified”?
  • AM I WILLING TO MAKE A CHANGE ?

Hey y’all it’s Adam & Rebecca with another macro-friendly recipe. This recipe offers an easy alternative to unhealthy commercial cakes. We substituted the refined sugars and fats for a protein punch and a healthy dose of satiating fiber. It makes for a satisfying craving killer at all times of the year, and may be served as a whole mud cake or cut up into individual brownies to share!! But in our opinion, they are way too decadent, fudgy and moist to do so.

Macros for 1 serving are: 601kcal 59P 70C 9F and 19g of Fiber

Preparation time: 10 mins.

Cooking time: 15 mins.

Serves: 2

The recipe makes one Large Mud Cake or about 4-6 Brownies

INGREDIENTS

  1. 10g Flour (use your preferred flour, white, whole-wheat, oat or almond etc.)
  2. 45g Vanilla or Chocolate Whey Protein
  3. One can or 255g (drained weight) Red Kidney Beans
  4. 10g Cocoa Powder (pro tip: the darker the cocoa, the better the taste.)
  5. ½ teaspoon of Baking Powder
  6. ½  tube of Sugar Coated Chocolate Buttons (nuts, dried fruit, chocolate chips or chunks, toasted coconut shavings or seeds also make excellent toppings, but try to stay under 88kcal of toppings to stay within the calories provided above for this recipe)
  7. 50ml of Water (any milk may also be substituted according to your caloric budget)
  8. Low Calorie (1 kcal) Non-stick Cooking Spray
  9. Your Powdered Sweetener of Choice (All artificial or natural zero calorie sweeteners may be used here)
  10. Optional: Vanilla or Chocolate Essence

METHOD

  1. This one is really simple, just put all the ingredients apart from the toppings (we used Sugar Coated Chocolate Buttons) in a food processor and blend until a brownie batter consistency is formed.
  2. Spray a baking tray with non-stick cooking spray and gently transfer the batter and add your toppings.
  3. Bake in a pre-heated oven for around 15 minutes at 250 Degrees Celsius. Cool for approx. 1 hour before serving.

Repeat layers, and top off with grated mozzarella. Evenly distribute the beaten egg whites over the mozzarella and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Bake in a pre-heated oven for around 30 minutes. Cool for approximately 10 minutes before serving.
