Cutting Fat As a Female Bodybuilder
Article by Elle Nash
I wanted to talk to you about cutting fat as a female bodybuilder. A lot of people have no clue on how to cut fat off their body. They just start to starve themselves and expect it to happen. When it comes to cutting the fat off your body, you have to follow an exact science. The key as a bodybuilder isn’t to just drop weight on a scale, but you want to be able to allow the fat to melt off of you and leave just the lean muscle underneath. That is where the skill needs to come from and that is what requires the work. I wanted to share with you information on cutting fat as a female bodybuilder.
Step one is obviously eating every 2-3 hours. If you haven’t been doing this, you have to start now!! You need to be eating this often to boost your metabolism. This allows your body to work more efficiently and burn more fat. That’s the key, when your body has nutrients constantly coming in, it’s more likely to metabolize fat on the body, than storing it.
Step two is to cut your daily calorie consumption about by about 400 calories per day. That isn’t much, but that means your body will be forced to metabolize 400 calories from the fat on your body per day. It has to be a slight because if you cut your calories too much, your body will go into starvation mode and your body will store fat.
Step three for cutting fat as a female bodybuilder is to completely eliminate all carbs after 5pm. This is an odd rule, but carbs can be a real problem if you eat them in the evening. It’s very easy to eat too much and too many will be stored as fat. Since it’s hard to find the right amount, it is best just to not eat them at all and stick to protein.
