My friend, in this video I will tell you how you can lose weight after the age of 30.
Hello warriors, today we're going to talk about a very curious subject. And you may not be 30 yet, but one day you probably will be, so maybe this information should come in handy. And on top of that - the concepts I'm going to talk about today apply to any other age as well.
Nowadays there is already every possible, imaginable and unimaginable information on how to lose weight. And that information is no secret, but still, we see more and more overweight people. We also see more and more young people becoming overweight, but after 30 it is quite prevalent.
I remember when I was 23 and my friend was 27 we were playing football and he was getting quite tired. When I asked him what was wrong, he told me - you're young and you don't understand, - when you reach 30 your body changes a lot, things become much more difficult.
And I tell you, bro, that sentence marked me a lot, because I decided to remember it and to see if really at the age of 30 those changes will start to take place.
When I was just 30 and I started the channel I was in the best shape I'd ever been in. And that's when I said - no, what he said was not true at all.
But then about three more years went by and I started to look pretty awful. And I said - my mother, yes, maybe my friend was absolutely right.
It seemed that at this age if you get a little bit of stubborn fat - you can't get rid of it for anything in the world and with time it just accumulates more and more.
But then you look at people like Ronaldo who is almost 40 years old and you realise that maybe age has nothing to do with it.
In fact, it used to be thought that with age the metabolism slows down. I mean, people used to think that ageing is the main cause of slower metabolism.
But it's the same as seeing overweight people in the gym and saying that the gym causes overweight. Same here - if you see more overweight adults, it doesn't mean that simply age causes you to gain it. And there is already research confirming that ageing itself does not slow down metabolism.
And this is important to take away any excuse of age, whether you're 30 or 35 or 40 or 25 - you can still do it.
So now the next thing you're going to say is - young people stay lean a lot easier or if they want to lose weight they seem to do it a lot easier. And you're kind of right, maybe to get to where you are it took you several years of little activity or bad decisions, so you're going to have to make up your mind that you're going to have to put in a lot of work as well.
A young person who practically all his life was slim and then only for a couple of months put on some extra weight, obviously it is easier for him to return to the state he was in all his life. The body always tends to gravitate towards the state it is used to being in.
So let's say, you're 38 years old and for the last five or seven or 10 years you've got that little belly that seems to be getting bigger and bigger and you want to get rid of it.
And I'm going to disappoint you that just going to the gym or hitting the bars or just cutting something like carbs out of your diet isn't going to do much for you.
Because there is no such thing as a magic bullet or a magic bullet that you just do one little thing and that's it. The approach really has to be much more powerful. And you can't forget that as it took you years to get that way now you have to put in years of work to get the new result not only achieved but also sealed.
So the first thing would be to have a good reference. If you only use the weight scale to see your weight, this is not a very reliable reference. There we don't know what we gained or lost - it could be water or it could be that you didn't go to the toilet for about three days. The optimum would be at least once a month to measure body composition, but I can also understand that not everyone has access to this.
What I would recommend is to do the following - many smart scales nowadays already measure fat percentage. Now, what they measure is wrong, but it's still a reference number.
For example when I measured it on the professional machine I had 9% fat and this scale showed me 17. So I can know that when this scale shows me 16 there I actually have about eight.
What you are interested in is the number going down, not the number itself.
That way you can know if what you're doing is working or not, because let's say if in a week or two you're not down a couple of tenths of a percent - that means you're going to have to make adjustments to your strategy.
