"Reducing Hip fat isn't an exact science. Spot reducing body fat from target areas on our bodies just isn't possible but that's not to say we cant lose that stubborn hip fat in one way or another. The main thing to focus on is reducing body fat as a whole. You can do all the hip thrusts, squats, lunges and sumo deadlifts possible to target fat loss on your hips and although you will almost certainly increase strength in your posterior chain and achieve a more sculpted appearance, you still wont be eliciting fat loss from the hips!"
Energy Deficits and Diet Types
The most important factor in weight loss is an Energy Deficit. There is no single best strategy for weight management so strategies for weight loss and its maintenance should be tailored to each person. Some macronutrient focused diets can benefit specialist populations, such as Ketogenic and High Protein but they're not always suitable, sustainable or appropriate. As a general rule, the best diet for weightloss should be safe, healthy and nutritionally balanced.
The Benefits Of Losing Weight and Diet Adherence
Losing weight improves almost all obesity-related co-morbidities and metabolic markers, no matter what the macronutrient profile of the diet may be, but people nearly always vary in preference and their ability to adhere to different diets which means optimizing adherence is the most important factor for weight loss success.
THE BOTTOM LINE
Losing, maintaining and gaining weight is a constant battle and/or balancing act. Calories will always be a huge part of any diet. Losing fat comes down to burning more calories than you consume and gaining weight is the polar opposite so managing your calorie consumption and exercise prescription are the pillar stones to achieving any body transformation goal. No magic fad diet will ever be more beneficial than a healthy, balanced and calorie controlled diet plan and you simply can not spot reduce fat from problem areas without some kind of medical intervention
