On carrying out Body Shape Analysis, the Pear Body shape depicts a female Body shape that generally holds excess body fat around the lower region of their body such as around the hips, waist and buttocks.



The Pear shaped individual will usually have a smaller circumference to their upper body than to her lower body, thus giving her a pear shaped appearance.

Whether a Pear or an Apple, Identifying your Body Shape before you plan on undertaking a your Diet and Exercise to Burn Fat can be beneficial in many ways.

This awareness of Body Shape can bring to your attention aspects of Dieting, Exercise and Lifestyle which can all work together to make your Fat Loss goals more effective.


A Few Points to Note for Pears:


Metabolism

Pears usually have a lower metabolism than their Apple counterparts. This implies take they burn calories at a slower rate than that of an Apple Body Shape. Calories, therefore, should be reduced slightly as to avoid surplus calorie intake which can result in an un-healthy body fat percentage.

This doesn’t mean a dramatic reduction in calories, only a slight reduction.
 

Health

Fortunately, Pear Shaped individuals do not encounter the quantity of severe health risks that Apple Shaped people do.

They are mainly related to osteoporosis, cellulite, varicose veins, and eating disorders which usually is as a result of one being unhappy with their body.

Pear shaped women are adivised to take calcium regularly due the higher risk of osteoporosis.


Dieting

The ideal Pear Shape diet proportion would be:


--2/5 carbs--  --2/5 proteins--  --1/5 healthy fats--
 

Carbs
-- As with all Fat Loss Diets the Carbohydrates intake should be based on Low-Moderate G.I foods. i.e. Carbs that release energy slowly as oppose to rapidly which can result in Fat Gain due to surplus energy from these foods.

Low-Moderate G.I Carbs: whole grains, brown rice, Vegetables, and fruit)


Protein
-- All Proteins consumed should be lean and very low in fat. For example, skinless chicken\turkey breasts, eggs, tuna in brine, lean steak.


Fats
-- Extra Virgin Olive Oil should make most of the Healthy Fat in the Diet.

Fat can help maintain healthy hair and skin, protects vital organs, keeps your body insulated, and provides a sense of fullness after meals. This of course can help make meal number restrictions when dieting more tolerable.


Exercise

30 mins to an hour of low to moderate intensity exercise to lose belly fat 3-5 times per week.

Pear Shaped women are known to be susceptable to osteoporosis so a low impact exercise like Cross Training and Swimming should be chosen as opposed to high impact Cardio such as Running and Skipping.
