The FASTEST way to lose 30 pounds!

What is going on Ivorians? So today we got a video where someone is saying that this, these three things, these three tips are the fastest way to lose specifically 30 pounds. Now there isn't a time limit, this is just saying fast, take that whichever way you like, but let's go ahead and look at the video. I've already watched the video guys. I'm pre-watching these videos to make sure I'm not wasting your time. Let's go ahead and watch the video, see what she says, and then we can discuss as we do right here on Pledge Fitness. Here we go. The fastest way to losing 30 pounds. Here are my top three tips. Number one, I want you to drink 64 ounces of water every day. Now drinking water is actually a legitimate tool to losing weight. And the reason is that water, there's water inside of your subcutaneous fat, there's water inside your visceral fat, it carries water in it. So water helps actually break down fat when you're trying to lose weight. Fat cells that are predominantly more stubborn than others like beta fat cells versus alpha fat cells, they'll have more of a kick to them to break down, to release the triglycerides if you're drinking water. Not to mention if you're just looking at pounds for pounds sake, water also helps you release water. The more water you drink, the less water your body holds onto. Therefore you're releasing more water and water actually weighs a lot on the scale. That's one of the biggest fluctuations that you tend to see on the scale where you can weigh five pounds less the next day simply because of a water release or five pounds more because of water retention. The more water you drink, the better off you are in both weight overall and just metabolizing body fat because water assists you in that process. So I 100% agree with her with her first tip. You can find this bottle on my Amazon storefront. Honestly, I love it. You get up every day, you fill it up with your water, you put some electrolytes in it, you can also put cucumbers, whatever, make it fun, but make sure you're drinking this during the day. Numero dos, I want you to have a salad a day. That's a non-negotiable. This simply, I wouldn't say that it doesn't make sense, right? I'm not going to go as far as saying it doesn't make sense, but it's removed of context. You don't necessarily have to have a salad a day just to lose 30 pounds fast or whatever. What's going to cause you to lose 30 pounds fast, there's a lot of different factors and we'll talk about it, but a salad a day is removed from all context. A salad a day in respect to how many calories you're eating, a salad a day, but even though you're eating a salad a day, are you still eating the other things that you're eating? A salad a day, it's like, why eat a salad a day? Are you eating a salad a day to make you feel more full so that you don't overeat? What's the context of a salad a day? Let's see if she elaborates on it. I don't remember. I don't think she did. It doesn't matter what time during the day, but I preferably would like you to do it for lunchtime. That means that for lunchtime, no matter what, you're going to have a salad with your protein. Try to avoid heavy dressings. It's a salad with protein. It's not a salad a day. It's protein with salad a day. Still removed of context, but definitely try to get protein in. I agree with that point. If you've got to have some ranch, whatever. Just don't make it a soup of ranch, but I want you to just build a habit of one salad a day. You can literally lose so much weight with that habit. Yes, she didn't break down the context or the reason as to why. She just said, do this because it will work. I don't agree. I don't agree with doing stuff like that, where you just tell somebody to do something, but you don't explain the reasons why they should do it. Even when she explained the water, it was like, yeah, that's correct, but she just said, this will definitely help you. She didn't break down why it will help you. Sometimes a lot of people need that. They need to know why something will work. They don't want to just be told to do something because then they're like, well, what's the thing that's happening? Is this making my body fat move faster? Is this helping me build a habit? Is this helping my muscles? Is this for working out? There's so many different reasons why you'll do something that doesn't explicitly just break down body fat and burn body fat. People want to know, what tool are they using and what does that tool do? I think she would have been better off explaining all of the reasons why you're drinking water, why you're eating a salad, but let's download my fitness program. Why? Because I want you to be on a schedule. Being on a schedule is going to help you be consistent. You know why? Because when you go to the gym, if you're going to the gym or if you're going to your home workouts, you're going to be prepared. You don't have to worry about what the heck am I going to do today? I already did that for you. All you have to do is show up, girlfriend, and I want you to show up at least three times a week. You don't have to do all the five days. If you can, you're a rock star, but we want to build the habit. So three times, two times even, it's okay. Just start on a schedule. It's the same routine that I do. It's six weeks long. Every two weeks, the workouts change. We're focusing on strength training because that's what's going to help you shred the fat. Keep it off. You can find the download on my profile. Get started. You can start any day. Let's make 2023 your- Okay. Yeah. 100% agree with focusing on strength training because that's going to help you burn more fat and keep it off. That's 100% true. As we know, lean mass is the primary driver for your metabolic rate. When you're losing weight, no matter what, no matter what you do, contrary to what anybody will tell you, don't do this diet, don't do that, don't do this, because it's going to slow down your metabolism. The truth is your metabolism is inevitably going to slow down simply because you have lost weight. You weigh less, so that's less energy to carry around. Your body's going to try to hold on to as much body fat as possible. When you've lost body fat as a defense mechanism, it's going to do things like make you a little bit more tired, reduce your non-exercise activity thermogenesis. See what I'm doing with my hands? It's going to make me do less things with my hands. I'm going to be doing less things subconsciously without even knowing simply because my body is trying to reduce the amount of energy output. There's the body set point theory where your body's trying to constantly put yourself at a specific weight. We don't know that for sure, but it does go in line with the fact that your body does multiple things to reduce your energy output as you're continuously losing weight, plus on top of that, you just weigh less. But if you had more lean mass, your lean mass requires a lot of calories, thus partitioning or moving a lot of the calories that go into your body and putting them straight into your muscle, helping you keep calories or energy away from body fat as much as possible. Thus, because of this, your body needs more energy. Therefore, your metabolism now counteracts the drop and tries to drive it, tries to move your metabolism upwards to burn more energy, to burn more calories for muscle retention or muscle growth. You definitely want muscle because that's one of the tools that's going to help you partition calorie and keep it away from storing more body fat or simply just keep it away from when you're partitioning calories and using energy because of your muscle tissue. So that's 100%. I 100% agree with that. Once again, she said it, but she didn't really explain it. I prefer when people are doing these kind of videos that they are explaining these things. I would actually say that her tip one and tip three, granted, I know tip three, she's asking to use her workout, which I don't have anything against if it's a good workout, if it works. I know she said something about she switches it up. I get the whole switching up thing in terms of boredom, but you definitely don't have to really switch up your exercise. All you got to do is pick compound exercises and do them over and over and over again. It sounds boring, but it's actually more comforting. You become better technically with your technique when you do the same workouts over and over again. It's unnecessary to change it and learn something new and do something new because you don't have to. Compound exercises, bench press, squats, deadlifts, those are the things you have to do. Pull-ups, push-ups, dips, exercises that tackle the most amount of muscle groups at that singular time. Deadlifts is the most compound exercise that exists. That's super helpful because of the way our bodies are and the way our muscles are. It's all proportionate. It's rare that you'll see somebody have a right arm that's way more visually bigger than their left arm because our body is proportionate. So when you do things that trigger multiple muscle groups, the more muscle groups, the better. Your body will react to that better and then you'll actually be building more muscle much quicker. Especially if you haven't worked out, you'll build muscle quick because that's just how it works. The beginning parts of your workout or when you start resistance training for the first time that first year, you're going to build the most muscle, the fastest muscle building year of your entire life. So yeah, it's pretty good and it'll help you with weight loss. So I'll say points one and points three technically were good points to lose 30 pounds fast. Point two, just not enough context in there in my opinion. All right, let me know what you guys think of the video.
