Karma Power: 8 | Sommigen zullen dit al zelf hebben ondervonden maar misschien toch waardevol voor sommigen anderen: Burning Subcutaneous Bodyfat: Tips for Women and Men! If there were a single goal or aim that could be attributed to 99% of the exercising population, it would be to get rid of subcutaneous fat. Sure, there are those who claim to workout because it’s healthy, but when it comes down to it, “healthy” simply doesn’t motivate people to exercise. “Looks”, on the other hand, is a powerful motivator and literally drives the health and fitness industry despite any claim to health and/or fitness. In the end, it all boils down to looking good. Subcutaneous fat is just a scientific term for the fat that sits in between your muscle and your skin. It’s the fat that gives you dimples in your skin known as cellulite. You know what I’m talking about, that cottage cheese look. It’s also the fat that gives you “love handles”. Add to that, any other roles and folds and jiggly skin all are caused by subcutaneous fat. For the sake of not having to write it over and over again, we’ll refer to it as “SC” fat from here on out. Before we begin a discussion of the research, let me point out that there is a reason why we refer to SC fat in the first place, instead of just referring to it as plain old fat. In general terms, the body has three types of fat stores; SC fat, visceral fat, and intramuscular fat. As we’ve already discussed SC fat is the fat underneath your skin. It’s the fat that everybody sees. Visceral fat, sometimes called omental fat, is that fat that is stored inside your belly. It is inside where your guts are. It leads to the “pot belly” that men so often get and is highly correlated to heart disease. Finally there is intramuscular fat. Just as the name implies, this is fat that is stored in between muscle fascicles. It is the fat that is referred to as “marbling” when talking about cuts of beef. It is the first fat stores that are drawn upon when active muscles need fat for fuel. OK, with all the big fat introductions out of the way, let’s get down to business. SC fat, being the most noticeable fat, is something we all wish we had less of. So how do we get rid of it? We burn it. A study undertaken at the University of Tokyo compared the effects of exercise frequency on SC fat and visceral fat.(1) They examined the interaction of two different frequencies of aerobic exercise training (30 min at 50-60% of maximal heart rate per session) and a self-administered caloric restriction program on the changes in subcutaneous and visceral fat mass over a period of 13 wk. Twenty-six sedentary young women (27.9% body fat) were randomized into three groups: a non-exercising control group; a group who undertook 1-2 sessions/wk plus a 240 kcal caloric restriction (1-2SW); and a group who undertook 3-4 sessions/wk without caloric restriction (3-4SW). There was an equivalent decrease in the percentage of body fat and total fat mass in both exercise groups compared with the control group. This can be attributed to an equivalent caloric deficit being achieved in both the 1-2SW group and the 3-4SW group. Reduction in SC fat was significant in 3-4SW, but not in 1-2SW or the Control group. A negative correlation was observed between training frequency and changes in SC fat mass. In other words, the more frequently they exercised, the greater the impact on SC fat. In contrast, visceral fat decreased significantly and equivalently in both groups except the control group. There was no correlation between training frequency and changes in visceral fat. These results clearly suggest that the decrease in SC fat, but not visceral fat, is proportional to the amount of aerobic exercise training. A change in VFM appears to be related solely to a deficit in caloric balance either by caloric restriction or by increased caloric expenditure through exercise. The above results can be explained by differences in the sensitivity of each type of fat cell to stimuli such as fasting (i.e. dieting) and catecholamines. The difference in sensitivity to caloric restriction is due to the different induction thresholds for metabolism-related gene _expression. (2) The _expression of beta3-adrenergic receptor, hormone sensitive lipase, and uncoupling protein-2 genes increases in visceral fat at the onset of dieting whereas SC fat generally is less responsive or will not respond at all to the stimulus of caloric restriction. Again, catecholamines such as adrenaline and noradrenaline are powerful lipolytic messengers in fat tissue. The act via beta2-adrenergic receptors. Alpha2-adrenergic receptors counteract the effects of adrenalin and noradrenalin on fat cells. SC fat cells have more alpha2 and fewer beta2 receptors than visceral fat cells. (4) This combined with reduced dieting induced gene _expression largely explain why love handles hold on and saddle bags stay in the saddle while the belt continues to get looser. (3) What our current study demonstrates is that in order to get SC fat burning you have to hit it with a higher level of lipolytic stimuli, namely more adrenalin and noradrenaline and that more frequently. We do this with moderately intense and sufficiently frequent cardio. Dieting alone, and particularly low-fat high-carb/insulin diets, will yield disappointing results particularly for women.

Ja dat staat vast, maar toch leuk stuk voor newbies. Kijk de tekst even na, staan wat rare tekens in

Ik ben me lovehandles ook kwijtgeraakt tijdens de cut. Zonder een seconde cardio te hebben gedaan

NEEEEEEEEE Ik haat cardio. Zit nu al 3 weken op een calorie-restrictief dieet: 4 bammekes per dag + 1 warme maaltijd. That's it. Drink alleen water. De resultaten zijn nogal dissapointing to say the least. De handles zijn groot, figuur is o.k. Verdomdes goed dat ik dit lees. Ik hang wel een aantal maal per week in de ijzers, maar doe verder weinig. O, well. A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do. Dan maar elke dag een half uurtje joggen (Zucht) |

kan beter maar 300 400 kcal onder je behoefte gaan zitten gaat wel iets langzamer maar je spierverlies wordt veel meer beperkt

Bedankt voor je reactie Bur. Wanneer een vriend van mij zou willen afvallen en me zou vertellen dat hij maar zo weinig at zou ik hem hetzelfde advies geven. Het bizarre is echter dat ik een hele grote range heb waarbinnen ik op gewicht blijf: Ik kan behoorlijk veel eten, eigenlijk alles wat ik wil. Maar ik kan ook tijden behoorlijk weinig eten. In beide gevallen blijf ik gewoon op gewicht. Mijn stofwisseling is een beetje kinky. Ik moet echt behoorlijk bulken om aan te komen, maar ook behoorlijk weinig eten om ook maar iets af te vallen. Wat betreft spierverlies: Het lijkt of mijn spieren iets kleiner zijn geworden, maar de kracht is ongeveer hetzelfde gebleven. Ik train nu gewoon om op pijl te blijven. Met iets minder gewicht en maak dan 10-16 herhalingen per set. Dit gaat eigenlijk veel beter dan ik had verwacht. Blijkbaar gaat je lichaam toch meer andere enzymen aanmaken om efficienter met de vetstofwisseling om te gaan. |

ik haat die dieten, ik doe wel cardio. Voel je je zeker weten lekkerder bij. Zolang je geen wedstrijden doet moet dat ook genoeg zijn. Als op je voeding let en gewoon cardio doet, kan je echt wel tussen de 8 - 10 % bf komen. Dit is on stage natuurlijk niet genoeg
