From all the questions I have ever received, many people are
confused how and when to take fat burners and which one to chose.
To begin with
there are mainly two types of fat burners,
1) Stimulant Based – With Caffeine
2) Non Stimulant Based – Without caffeine
First step in understanding how to use your fat burner is
understanding what type of fat burner you have, and what results you may expect
from it. To begin with stimulant based fat burners
What are stimulant based fat burners?
In simplest words, any fat burner having caffeine in it as an
ingredient is a stimulant based fat burner. Many fat burners have caffeine as
single ingredient or with a combination or as a blend
So what is caffeine?
Yes I know you people are aware of caffeine, but many people think
it as a drug, caffeine is also used as a dietary supplement. Many pre-workout
supplements and fat burner has it as an active ingredient. Using caffeine wisely
can give great results in achieving weight loss goals.
Being done with basic of caffeine
How to use A Stimulant Based Fat Burners?
As caffeine is known to increase focus, concentration and stamina to
a certain limit, and is also proven to be addictive. Any fat burner which has
caffeine in it can be addictive if taken for long periods (3 weeks or more)
For this reason Stimulant fat burners prescribe the dosage to
follow, protocol to use it. It is based on simple rule, i.e. to study tolerance
of individuals. Every person reacts differently to caffeine.
It is advice to go with 1 Pill on first two days, when tolerance
is achieved, the dose can be increased to 2 pills per day after a week or 4
days, the dose can be increased to 3 pills which must be taken with first meal
and second meal, the final phase is to take 4 pills i.e. 2 pills morning and 2
pills evening.
Dosage
1 pill day 1 - 2
2 pills Days 3 - 4
3 Pills (2 Pills with 1st Meal and 1 Pill with 2nd
Meal) day 5 - 6
4 Pills (2 Pills Morning and 2 Pills Evening) after 7 days
Caffeine increases alertness, concentration, and keeps you awake
till it is in your system. If you are a person who workout at afternoon or
evening
Just understand how it works.
For afternoon you can take it just before your workout (45 mins)
For morning workout take it before your pre-workout meal
For evening workouts take it 1-2 hours after lunch, you can take
it 45 mins before your workout but you may have problem sleeping. My advice is
to take 4 hours before your evening workout.
What are non Stimulant Fat burners ?
As simple as that, fat burners which do not have mainly caffeine
as its active ingredient is non stimulant. To be clear, these type of fat
burners won’t give you any alertness focus and increase in concentration.
Such fat burners are not addictive, they can be started or stopped
any time.
These are mainly carbs blocker, they help you control your appetite.
Many people have carving for carbs, they get hungry very soon, or don’t feel a
satisfaction of eating. For such people these fat burners can be helpful.
Mainly these fat burners have all natural ingredients and extracts
of super foods, such as Garcinia etc. Which is appetite suppressant.
Another thing which I would like to say and end this article is, drinking
of water. If you chose to go with stimulant or non- stimulant fat burner, water
is must. On average you must drink 3-4 liters of water. Fat burners dehydrate
your body, if you don’t drink enough water when on fat burners you may stress
your kidney which may result in kidney failure. If you are on Stimulant based
fat burner you must drink more as the level of dehydration will be more.
So take care. Don’t compromise with drinking water
