Diet and Exercises You Need to Get Toned Fast

Fast Fat Burning Diet Tips

The most important thing you need to understand is that severely cutting your calories is a bad idea if you want to get your body look toned. To achieve this, you’ll need to work out a lot, and this will require energy. To make sure that you get sufficient nutrition, consider using a well-balanced 14-day diet plan for weight loss.

You can enhance the effects of this diet by including foods that naturally boost fat burning. This includes:

  • Eggs
  • Nuts (and natural nut butter)
  • Poultry
  • Greek yogurt
  • Cottage cheese
  • Berries
  • Grapefruits
  • Avocados
  • Fatty fish (tuna, salmon, mackerel)
  • Chili peppers
  • Dark leafy greens

Drink lots of green tea as it also helps weight loss and is a potent antioxidant, which benefits your general wellbeing.

If you want to cut your calories wisely, consider intermittent fasting. Health magazine explains how different studies prove its efficiency for fast but long-term weight loss. You can use one of the safest types of fasting, meaning an early dinner and no eating policy after a certain time, to burn off some fat fast and enhance the efficiency of your exercise. Just be sure to plan your workouts during daytime when you can replenish your energy with a meal.

Best Exercises to Get Toned Fast

Be prepared to work out hard if you want to get your muscles toned. The most effective exercises for this are cardio, aerobics, and weight lifting. In case your current fitness levels are low or you suffer from any chronic health condition, consult your doctor and seek professional help in designing a safe workout routine.

If you are in good health, these are the exercises that will help you get toned fast:

  • Squats of any type are great for toning your legs. To get your arms toned at the same time use dumbbells and press your arms up over your shoulders ten times while squatting.
  • Great for toning your butt, thighs, and abs, all types of lunges should be practiced every day. Make your movements sharp and precise to achieve maximum efficiency. Do about 10-15 reps of forward and side lunges (each) but also try crossover lunges. During this exercise, twist your torso when lowering your body. This should look like a cross between a lunge and curtsey.
  • Plank is the best exercise if you want to get toned fast or at all. High, low, and side planks must be included into your daily routine. You don’t even need to do anything in this position, just hold your plank from 30 seconds to 3 minutes. When your stamina improves, you can add more moves, like touching your elbows with the knee while in a high plank or moving from low to high position to tone your arms and core.

When working out to get toned fast, listen to your body and increase the number of reps as you get used to the current workload.

    I’m still fighting with the 10 lbs. I gained over the holidays….I use weights three times a week and exercise five times a week. I average about 5000 steps a day which is fair considering I use a walking stick. We eat clean except on Saturday’s when we indulge in pasta or bread or some other carb no, no ( wink) Hubby has lost 16 lbs. My 10 are just hanging on, right around my middle…xo

    Hi Katherine, dieting and weight loss is always a challenge, I decided in November I was going to go gluten free, sugar free and dairy free and did not know first what I was doing and had a learning curve but after searching recipes either on Instagram or Pinterest I found some great recipes to replace white flour with things like almond flour, coconut flour and a gluten free flour mix from Bobs Red Mill and have satisfied my taste for pastries, cookies and breads. In changing my eating habits with fruits, vegetables and protein, gluten free pastas, coconut oils, and ghee oils to cook with(oh and the baked goods) I have lost 26 pounds and I was not even trying to or set out to lose weight. I also have incorporated lots of seeds in in my diet as well I make into crackers, so good with smashed avocados. I dont get nearly enough exercise with my back and knee. You are doing great. Thank you for stopping by!
    Hugs
