article: . Going on walks is the easiest and cheapest way to get more exercise and start losing weight. You don't need any gear, you don't need much time, and you'll get out of it exactly what you put into it.  Start with brisk walks around the neighborhood and slowly expand your walking range. Try for a mile at first, or time it out to walk at a quick clip for 15 to 20 minutes, twice a day. If you're not a big fan of exercise routines, don't treat it like exercise. Just treat it like you're going for a walk. Cue up an audiobook or some new tunes in your headphones. . If you want to add some more intensity to your workouts, start doing some gentle cardio to prepare your body. Get your heartbeat up and keep it up. Whether you want to sign up for a class or find a series of workouts online, consider any of the following cardio and fitness routines:   Yoga.  Pilates. Spin class. Dance aerobics. Water aerobics. Not everyone will be up to doing heavy cardio, like the kind you might encounter in a spin class or other aerobics routines. Talk to your doctor to develop a weight loss plan for you. . Plateaus happen regularly. If you start losing weight at an even clip, then suddenly stop, it's time to change up your workouts. This happens to almost everyone.  Try switching to a circuit-training regimen. Pick 5 to 10 quick exercises you enjoy and do high-intensity sets for 40 to 60 seconds, during which you do as many reps as you can. Rest for 20 to 30 seconds, then move on to the next exercise. Do three full sets of your 5 to 10 exercises, with a short five minute rest in between. If you do this routine three times a week while you eat healthy, you'll be dropping pounds fast. . Stress produces cortisol, which is connected to a variety of ailments, including increased body fat. High periods of stress can make it much more difficult for your body to shed pounds, which means you need to learn to relax if you want to drop some pounds.  Make your mental health as much of a priority as your physical health. Take 15 to 30 minutes every day to just sit quietly and Zen-out. Don't feel guilty for needing a little you-time. Take hot baths, read good books, or listen to quiet music. Whatever chills you out, do it. . Nobody likes to hear this, but it's the scientific truth: It's impossible to pick a spot on your body and reduce the fat there without reducing the fat everywhere else. You can work out specific areas to build muscle there, and hand exercises will help you strengthen your wrists, hands, and fingers, but there's little muscle in your hands in the first place. The only way to lose the fat in between your fingers is to change your diet, exercise, and burn more calories than you consume, to lose weight from the rest of your body.

article: Before you make any drastic changes to your diet, it is important to consult with a dietitian who has experience working with bodybuilders. They will be able to develop an eating plan for you that will help you to reach your goals. Highly processed, high-sodium foods will not give your body the energy required to maintain heavy weightlifting and exercising. If you want to steadily build muscle and eliminate body fat, you must say a firm “goodbye” to processed foods. If you avoid processed food, but still consume sugar or artificial sweeteners, you are also doing yourself a disservice. If you must sweeten your items, use natural sugars such as fruit, honey, and maple syrup. Make sure to use sugar sparingly. Whenever possible, opt for fresh over pre-made. Use meal prep such as chopping your food beforehand, or creating weekly lunches to encourage healthy eating habits. Protein is required to build and maintain muscle. Eating a low-protein diet will not allow you to build muscle mass and may actually lead to the loss of muscle mass and fatigue. While you do not need to eat a steak at every meal, you should incorporate meat, beans, dairy, eggs, and nuts into your diet.  Eat protein wisely. A pound of bacon is not going to provide your body with the same nutrient content as a pound of lean, grass-fed beef. Make sure you consume plant-based protein as well, through nuts, nut butters, soy, legumes (such as kidney beans, chickpeas, and lentils) and other plant proteins for a well-rounded diet. Although a high-protein diet is a must for bodybuilding, you should not eschew carbs altogether, as your body needs carbohydrates to build and process energy. Instead, make sure you are eating carbs wisely; a doughnut and a bowl of quinoa are not equals. When implementing carbs, aim for whole-grain, high-quality carbohydrates, including grains such as quinoa, brown rice, oats, and barley. While protein and carbohydrates often get most of the focus where bodybuilding and weight training are concerned, you absolutely need the vitamins and minerals found in vegetables. Make sure you are including a generous helping of  vegetables in your diet, including at least one vegetable in each meal.  The best rule to follow when eating vegetables is to eat the rainbow—that is, to eat a wide variety of vegetables in different colors. Fruits contain vitamins and minerals as well, but they are much higher in carbohydrates and sugar than vegetables. If you do include fruits in your diet, eat them in moderation, such as no more than one serving per day, or as an occasional treat. Throwing back a protein shake every morning is not a guarantee that your body will build muscle mass. Although protein shakes are not inherently bad, they are also not a magical means of building muscle. If you decide to implement a protein supplement in your diet, make sure the ingredients are high-quality (i.e. not riddled with sugar and empty carbs). While protein supplements can do a lot for a bodybuilder, they are not strictly necessary; while it may be difficult, it is possible to get all of the protein you need through a healthy diet and wise food choices.

article:
Pork skin is easy to find at smaller butcher shops, charcuteries, or international meat markets. Alternatively, buy a large cut of pork belly with the skin on it. Make sure there is at least a quarter inch (0.6 centimeter) of skin on the meat.  Buy at least a pound (420 grams) of pork skin, not including the meat. Use the skin within 3 days of purchase. The high moisture content of pork skin causes it to spoil quickly. Cut away any meat by slicing through the fatty layer. Next, use the back of a knife or a large spoon to scrape the fat away from each strip of skin. The more fat you remove, the puffier the skins will become. Make sure you always practice good knife safety when handling tough cuts of meat.  Pork skin is tough and rubbery. The fat will be soft and easily scraped away. The leftover fat can be rendered into lard or discarded. The meat can be saved for a pork dish. Once most of the fat is removed from the skin, cut the pork skin into small, bite-sized squares. Aim for pieces that are 2 x 2 inches (about 5 x 5 centimeters).  The pork skins will double in size when fried. Therefore, avoid making excessively large pieces. Wash your hands, knife, and cutting surface after handling raw meat. Consuming raw meat can cause severe illness.
