Fat Burning in Fitness Clubs

Burning fat is the first step towards losing weight. Lowintensity endurance training (aerobic training) stimulates the metabolism to burn fat. This method trains the body to use up more of its fat stores. It also exercises the heart and circulatory system – a great way to enhance endurance, health, fitness and your figure.

Epuipment: exercise bike, elliptical trainer, stepper, etc.
Classes: aerobics, dance, step, etc.

The right nutrition is a key factor in achieving training objectives.
You can only keep your fitness up to the very end of the session if you eat correctly.

Before Training:
Come to the studio on an empty stomach? The best solution to help keep your fitness up during training is a small energy boost in the form of a fitness bar. It is a good idea to nourish your body with L-Carnitine in order to support the fat-burning process. Then all you need to do is drink plenty of fluids, and off you go!

During Training:
The body loses a great deal of fluid during aerobic exercise. One bottle of Fit'nLite Fitness Drink makes up for this loss and provides the body with L-Carnitine to support fat burning.

After Training:
The first thing to do is drink. It is very difficult to drink enough during a training session to compensate for fluid loss. If you are trying to loose weight, you should avoid a heavy meal after training, and opt for a shake instead.

As with all sporting activity adequate hydration is essential. If the training objective is loosing weight, the consumed beverage should be lower in calories. Low in calorie sports drinks like the PowerBar Fit’n Lite Fitness Drink lend themselves to this purpose very well.

Even if Fat Burning is the major training objective, it is important to have a sufficient supply of carbohydrates before training in order to keep up the capability to do sports and not to drop too soon. The Fit’n Lite Bar with its L-Carnitine content supplies quickly available carbohydrates. This keeps you fit and conserves musculature.

Because of low calorie nutrition, you should eat food with a lower fat content, which should contain valuable plant fats. Avoid fatty products, choosing alternative low fat products instead (see index). Fibre can also contribute to low calorie nutrition.

To be sure of a good supply of vitamins and minerals you should eat fruits and vegetables. They include lots of the best nutrients, and are often lower in calories.

L-CARNITIN - WHAT IS IT?
L-Carnitine is a substance produced naturally in the body. It is necessary for the transportation of fatty acids into the mitochondria (the power station of the body ’s cells), where they can be oxidized.
L-Carnitine is synthesized in the body, but also ingested in food. Plant products hardly contain any L-Carnitine, therefore vegetarians often have lower levels.

Consumption is best before sport:
For example a Fit’n Lite Bar with 200 mg L-Carnitine or a Fit’n Lite Drink with 500 mg L-Carnitine.
