In your journey to get rid of fat arms you’ve probably come across a couple different types of diets. Perhaps figuring out which diet to follow created a little confusion.
Unfortunately, how do you make a choice with all the different fads out there? The good news is that many other women, including myself, have already gone through this process.
And unfortunately, all the varied marketing jargon can further confuse you when it comes to settling with a diet plan. You see, it’s the marketer’s job to make every single diet he promotes seem like the next best thing.
The good news, however, is that I am providing you with a critique of low-fat dieting for toned arms.
The benefits:
1. Easy to do: Cutting out fat isn’t rocket science.
The bad:
1. Less calories burned around the clock: Without a hefty amount of dietary fat, your metabolism will plummet. Your cellular machinery requires fat to function properly.
2. Less focus and IQ: Certain types of fats form the grey mass that is your brain. Moreover, the neurons in your brain need fat to communicate properly.
3. Higher frequency of sick days: No fat means no immune system. Seriously. Those germ-eating cells of yours need fat to work hard.
4. Insulin resistance: This translates into more nutrients going to your arm jiggle. Without fat, insulin resistance goes up. Not good for toned arms.
5. Hunger pangs: Fat slows digestion. So once you eliminate it, your food will digest so quickly that you’ll end up with massive hunger waves. Not good!
The bottom line is that you need to eat fat in order to lose arm fat. A low fat diet will not help you get rid of those flabby arms. So please do not try this type of diet if you really want to reach sexy arm stardom!
