Keep Carbs in Your Diet
JORGE’S DAILY FIT TIP
By Jorge Cruise, Chief Diet and Fitness Expert
That dirty “c-word”: carbohydrates. Carbs aren’t the villains they’re made out to be. Carbohydrates provide your body with the lighter fluid needed to help burn your stored body fat. And carbs can play a critical role in achieving fat loss. But not just any carbohydrate will help you burn fat. Carbohydrates fall into two categories: whole and refined. You want to consume whole carbohydrates when possible. Whole foods have not been overly processed, refined, or bleached. Whole-grain and whole-wheat bread, oats and brown rice fall into the whole foods category. If you skimp on carbs, your muscles will shrivel up, and you’ll work out with less intensity. Consuming these good carbs will give you the energy you need to tough out your resistance training. Also, eating carbs will help nourish your new beautiful lean muscle tissue.
