i intake arnd 1400 cals a day.i burn arnd 300cals by exercise.i need to lose 5kg wt.can u tell me if its enuf?

Answer 1

My ideas? Try to do 200 minutes of cardio a week. Remember fat does not turn into muscle, so you need to lose your fat while putting on muscle. Work hard, but don't over 60 minutes at a time. Do planks and other abs exercises on alternate days.

On training days, do 5-10 minutes of cardio to warm up, then do your weight training. Do 30 to 60 minutes more of cardio, then go home.

The best time to eat is just after your workout within an hour when your metabolism is raging. For your muscles, incorporate some isolated soy protein or whey protein. Whey is more potent but the soy tastes better!

Don't look at your scale as the be all and end all, but get a measuring tape to check your progress, and that will show more tangible results.

Read magazines like Shape, Womens Fitness, Fitness, etc to get tips and to stay motivated.

Good luck and stick at it. This plan has lost me 20 lbs in 12 weeks so far, just go for it!

Answer 2

Pretty sure that an intake of 1400 calories a day isn't healthy. Recommended for women is 2000, men 2,500 (very general recommendations). Don't starve yourself to lose weight, it's not worth it, do it gradually and healthily.

Answer 3

You need to find out what your maint. calories are first before trying to "cut" calories . From there you know how many calories you should be cutting as opposed to what youve been cutting. If you eat too little, then your body will not allow you to burn as much as you want, bc its thinking your starving yourself and will keep as much fat on you as possible. You need to make sure that you are keeping your heart rate up long enough to burn the calories and not go by what the machine that you may be working on is telling you.

Answer 4

Yes, that should be enough. Make sure you are eating high yield foods... make sure you are getting all of your vitimins!
