An excess of body fat is not ideal for anyone’s health. If you are overweight, then it is sensible to look at simple ways of burning body fat that you can stick with until you reach a healthy weight.

If fat loss is not sustainable, you will end up giving up and putting on any of the weight you did manage to lose in the first place, and you will be back to square one.

With that in mind, let’s look at some of the most sustainable ways to burn body fat that you should be able to stick to until you are looking, and more importantly, feeling, your best.

Strength training

Many women are hesitant to start strength training because they think it will give them a bulky bodybuilder physique, but this is not the case. What it will do, however, is help you to lose fat fast, and build lean muscle effectively, and since the more muscle you have, the more calories you burn, this is a really smart move.

Freeze it

If you’re looking for a really simple option, then take a look at https://elementbodylab.com/. They offer a non-surgical procedure known as coolsculpting which allows you to freeze your fat away over a handful of sessions so you can burn your body fat in just about the most effortless way possible.

Eat a high-protein diet

A high protein diet will not only be lower in calories than a high carb diet but it will help you to feel fuller for longer, help you to build more muscle mass, and ultimately help you to burn fat faster if you exercise and watch how many calories you are eating. When it comes to fat loss, healthy protein from fish, eggs, and chicken really is a superfood.

Eat more fat

This might seem counterintuitive if you are looking to burn more fat, but numerous studies have shown that people who eat lots of healthy fats from nuts, olives, and avocados, for example, are able to lose more body fat, especially around the middle, than those who eat little to no fat. Just bear in mind it does need to be healthy fat for it to have the desired effect, and you should still watch your portions carefully.

Drink black coffee

Coffee is often thought of as being bad for us, but in moderation, and when not adulterated with huge amounts of cream and sugar, it can be a very healthy choice of beverage indeed. For example, people who drink coffee are likely to have a higher metabolism than those who do not, which means they can burn more calories, and thus more fat, more effectively. Enjoy a cup of Joe a couple of times a day and see how much difference it makes to your body fat levels in conjunction with some of the other ideas here.

Your body doesn’t burn excess fat overnight, but since these techniques are so sustainable, you will be able to keep going until you drop the pounds and increase your health. Good luck.
