What is Skinny Fat and Why Should You Worry About It?

Skinny fat... Skinny Obese... they are the same thing and now they are finally becoming more important to talk about. So what exactly is skinny fat?

Skinny fat or skinny obese is appearing to be thin, but your body is mushy because you have more body fat then you do lean muscle. Essentially it's the same thing as being obese with the same risks and it show the importance of lean muscle mass in your body.

You might now be wondering how to people get skinny fat? It's a good question and it usually happens because people don't ever use resistance training. They just end up dieting and doing cardio forever... if that's you then you need to look at what you're doing.

When all you do is diet and do lots of cardio, your body will at first burn fat. However, fat is such an efficient and easy energy source to use and store that you body will turn to muscle for energy to burn and begin to store body fat.

The reason cardio doesn't help you is because your body get so efficient at doing it, your body just amalgamates and stores fat. You have to make it more intense and mix in the right exercises to lose weight for it to really work the way you want it to.

The answer to fight being skinny fat is resistance training. Resistance training will build your lean muscle which burns and uses body fat as an energy store. Using the right exercises to lose weight, you can continue to burn body fat get better results.

Now you'll become just toned, tight, happy, and healthy.

Skinny Toned Women Don’t Diet

In today’s world, women are told to look at Hollywood for the example of what to look like and how to train. However, that is the last place you should look. Hollywood actresses go through all extremes of weight gain to weight loss for their movies... so don’t follow them.

Real skinny and toned women don’t diet and don’t fast. They do a few things consistently and that makes all the difference.

They eat high protein diets

Toned women weight train and because of that they also eat high protein diets. These diets help their bodies burn maximum amounts of body fat and it also really helps to support their lean muscle mass.

This in turn helps to keep their metabolism revved up all day long.

They eat a lot

Toned women also understand that long periods where no food is consumed slows down you metabolism and can make it easier for your body to pack on fat.

You want to keep you metabolism revved all day long and the only way to do that is to eat 5 to 6 meals a day. Your body will consistently be breaking down food and using it as energy and that keep your metabolism high.

Junk food doesn’t exist

Toned women don’t eat junk food... and they don’t eat food with unhealthy chemicals. Even if your using the right programs and exercises to lose weight, you can be sabotaging everything by eating the wrong food.

Toned women eat clean diets and very rarely allow themselves to emotionally eat or scarf down junk. They build a new eating habit that burns fat and support lean, curvy, long muscle mass.

How Women Can Defeat Their Chances of Getting Breast Cancer

Women are having to deal with more cancer issues than many men these days. The newest cancer that has really begun to hit the TV commercials is heart disease. For the longest time, most people thought that heart disease was mainly regulated to men, but now more evidence supports women are just as if not more at risk.

This is on top of breast cancer. Breast cancer has always been a struggle with most women. While I have never had breast cancer, I have known many women who have suffered with this terrible disease. If there is one thing that you need to know in today's world... it's you must live healthy and take care of yourself. Here is an article I wrote about breast cancer and how to lower your risk.

Women have it really tough these days. Not only are the incidents of breast cancer going up, but so are women’s incidents of heart disease. Being a women is really tough in today’s world, but there is one thing that we as women need to do more than anything else... take care of ourselves.

You may have thought that breast cancer is something really really can’t do that much about or that your genetics are the only thing that will determine whether you get it or not. To a degress that’s true, but your lifestyle also will determine your chances. If you don’t exercise or eat terrible then you are at a high risk.

However, that said, if you exercise, you can drastically reduce the chances of you getting breast cancer (even heart disease). According to a study done by the University of South Carolina, women that exercise regularly and who are physically fit are less likely to die from breast cancer.

The study looked at 14,000 women between the ages of 20 to 83... all of whom had zero history of breast cancer. These women where watched over a long time and were divided into three groups according to their level of fitness. They were either low fitness, moderate fitness activity, or high fitness activity.

The results speak for themselves as the low fitness activity women were three times as likely to die from breast cancer as those women who were in the high fitness activity category.

Bottom line, fitness activity... doing the right type of fitness... can and will save your life. You have to realize that quality of life is more important than money or anything like that. If you are sick all the time, tired, and miserable... then all the money or love will do nothing for you.

With the risks of health concerns constantly going up, make sure you workout (such as weight training for women) and you can fight off cancer, disease, and look darn good in the process.
