Why don't nutritionists' methods help you lose weight?
When people decide to lose weight or do body shaping, I often see them consulting with a nutritionist.
Also, when a food product is labeled "Nutritionist-Produced," it seems that many people think it must be good for losing weight and body shaping.
But can a nutritionist really help you lose weight and do body shaping just by being consulted?
When you look at the bodies of many nutritionists, you'll see they are overweight, which probably makes you question them even more, doesn't it?
Please take a look at the chart below.
First, the fundamental principle of losing weight is to increase your "basal metabolism," which means increasing muscle mass. For this, it is absolutely essential to integrate both exercise and diet.
Especially for women trying to lose weight, it seems that for the majority of women, nutritionist-guided diets or registered dietitian-guided diets often fail to help them lose weight and body shape successfully.
Why is this? Why don't they lose weight beautifully? Why can't they achieve a beautiful body shape?
The only way to increase your basal metabolism, which accounts for 70% of your body's energy consumption, is to increase your muscle mass. This is because basal metabolic rate is proportional to muscle mass. In other words, when you increase your muscle, your body will burn more calories even when you are just sitting or sleeping, becoming a body type that is naturally predisposed to burn body fat.
The integration of both exercise and diet is essential, which means knowledge of physiology and muscle physiology is required.
The nutritionist qualification in Japan was born out of the role of "making people gain weight" to combat malnutrition after the post-war food shortages. The training for this qualification is completely devoid of physiology, muscle physiology, exercise, and physical activity.
Therefore, when you consult them, all they can teach you is nutritional components like "calories, fats, and salts per 100g."
For losing weight and body shaping, physiology and muscle physiology are essential, and focusing only on "nutritional components" is not enough.
And naturally, knowledge meant for making people gain weight cannot reduce body fat or increase muscle mass.
Furthermore, nutritionists have no knowledge of exercise. Even if they give you exercise guidance, it will probably be limited to something like "please go for a walk." Can you lose weight with that? Can you do body shaping like slimming your lower body or getting beautiful legs with that?
Unfortunately, "nutrition guidance" and "losing weight/body shaping" are completely different things.
If you've made up your mind to do body shaping, it would be a shame if you end up with a roundabout way of losing weight or the wrong body shaping method, wasting your effort and time.
As a personal trainer, I, Toshiaki Ozeki, have been involved in body shaping & lose weight guidance and personal training for many years. In that time, I have truly seen countless people who put in a lot of effort but see no results and end up wasting their hard work. I have also seen many people who think that body shaping and losing weight are painful and unpleasant.
It is my heartfelt wish that my knowledge and experience in body shaping and losing weight can be of help to as many people as possible, even in a small way.

Body Shaping Methods
Many women think they should do more lower body exercises to slim their lower body! Are you also focusing blindly on lower body exercises because you want to slim your lower body? However, if the form doesn't match your skeletal structure, your hips and thighs might actually get bigger with muscle development. This is the dilemma of lower body exercises - even though you're doing body shaping...
From the extensive model guidance experience of personal trainer Toshiaki Ozeki, who has the #1 track record in model body shaping, it has been discovered that top models have developed what are called "model muscles" - muscle areas that ordinary people don't have. If you develop model muscles, you can achieve a model skeleton and automatically get a model body type. With model muscles, you can achieve the same straight, linear model body lines as top models.
Does doing lots of abdominal exercises remove fat from the waist? If you think so, that's a big problem! To conclude, body shaping is not that simple. Conversely, belly fat can be removed and the waist can be slimmed without doing abdominal exercises. To change a body that's hard to lose weight, you need authentic women's body shaping that produces results.
Slender, straight, thin stick legs - so-called model legs - have become essential not just for models but for all women in today's fashion-forward world where showing legs is mainstream. While model leg body shaping tends to focus only on making legs thinner, the key point of model leg body shaping is creating the straight, linear appearance of the legs.
In model body type body shaping, we reduce overall fat, change the shape of areas of concern, adjust posture and skeletal silhouette to straight joint angles, and organize body type lines. We polish the model body type by developing the same model muscles as top models. Finally, we add model body functions to achieve perfect finishing - this is true model body type body shaping.
To slim and beautifully shape your calves, you first need to objectively determine the cause of your thick calves. Causes of thick calves include: ① fat accumulation causing thickness, ② muscle causing thickness, ③ a combination of both. For cases ② and ③, body shaping that reduces calf muscle is essential.
While "pelvis" has become a standard term in women's body shaping and women's diet training, there are endless consultations about pelvis body shaping: "I didn't lose weight in a feminine way," "I didn't get a slender model-like body type," "I didn't lose weight at all"... Aren't you fed up with body shaping that uses the plausible-sounding word "pelvis" to obscure what's really happening?
Women with good posture are beautiful and cool. Good posture alone makes you look slimmer. Everyone surely thinks so. Even if you work hard to lose weight and diet, if you don't have beautiful posture, you won't look slender and your body shaping efforts will be wasted, won't they? In authentic body shaping, we don't leave posture to conscious effort - beautiful posture is achieved through body shaping training that changes the underlying skeletal joint angles.
Have you experienced doing upper arm exercises to slim your upper arms but finding that your upper arms don't get thinner? Or dieting but your upper arms don't look thinner? You might hear that you should do lots of upper arm exercises because your upper arms are a concern, but you've probably already realized that doing only upper arm exercises has almost no effect on reducing upper arm fat or slimming them.
Do you really understand the body mechanisms for weight loss and the systems that enable dieting? Is not eating the best way to lose weight? Is exercise unnecessary for weight loss? Can you lose weight by going to diet gyms or women's exclusive body shaping gyms? Does cardio burn fat? Foods introduced on TV one after another and exercise books lining bookstore shelves... The honest truth is you don't know which ones are really effective!!
