Sharing the post, Bhavya wrote in the caption, "Here are the basics to know if you're on a fat loss journey," and further shared some valuable diet and workout tips for beginners:
1. Diet basics
Fruits and vegetables: Include colourful fruits and vegetables in every meal. They are packed with vitamins and minerals while being low in calories.
Lean proteins: Incorporate chicken, fish, lentils, or tofu into your meals. Protein provides energy, helps lose fat, and maintains muscle mass.
Whole grains: Use rice, quinoa, or oats. These complex carbohydrates provide energy and keep you feeling full for longer.
2. Workout essentials
Warm-up: Start with 5-10 minutes of light cardio, like jogging in place or dynamic stretches. This prepares your body for the workout and helps prevent injuries.
Strength training: Focus on bodyweight exercises like push-ups, squats, and lunges. You can also use dumbbells if available. Aim for 30-40 minutes of strength training, targeting different muscles every day.
Cardio: After strength training, do 30 minutes of walking or running. This helps burn calories and improves cardiovascular fitness.
Flexibility and stretching: Finish your workout with some stretching or yoga to cool down and improve flexibility.
3. Hydration
Aim to drink 2-3 litres of water daily. Staying hydrated supports metabolism and aids digestion.
4. Meal timing
Try to have smaller meals throughout the day to keep your energy levels stable. Never skip breakfast!
