Your internal clock controls many processes in your body, including fat loss. An unstable clock will make it very hard for you to get in shape.
The bad news is that most people are destroying their clocks because of modern day living.
So, without further ado, here are some ways to get your clock on track:
1. Have a stable sleep schedule: An irregular sleep/wake cycle is absolutely horrible for your clock. Not only will it alter your hunger levels, but it will also disrupt your insulin sensitivity. And this will make your body store a higher proportion of nutrients as fat.
2. Try to eat at the same times: Eating your meals at the same times day in and day out is a great way to enhance fat loss. By doing this you will increase insulin sensitivity which in turn will prevent nutrients going to your fat cells.
3. Workout a couple hours after breakfast: Doing this will prevent exercise from interrupting your sleeping patterns. Moreover, if you have breakfast first and wait for it to digest, by the time you begin exercising your body will be out of the starved state.
4. Don’t have too much caffeine: Once you have more than two hundred and fifty milligrams of caffeine, not only will you dehydrate, but you will also interrupt your deep sleep. You may find yourself waking up at night and feeling dead tired the next day.
5. Use high intensity light: If you can, try to get some high intensity light early in the day. If this is not an option for you, you can always use a light box. A gadget that will emit high intensity light towards your eyes which in turn will stabilize your biological clock.
6. Get cold before bed: Not having a cold enough ambient temperature before going to bed can disrupt your ability to go to sleep. You see, your body cools down a couple degrees when you go to sleep. So help your body make this transition.
Stabilizing your biological clock is one of the best things you can do to accelerate fat loss and increase your health. So take action here sooner rather than later!
