5 Surprising Things That Make You Leaner

Do you want to lose stomach fat and be lean?

If so here are 5 tips that will help you reach your goals.

1. Ditch The Starch: Starches, such as rice, potatoes, some veggies, oats, etc. are often considered "health foods." While they can be healthy, they can also pack on stomach bodyfat like crazy if you overdo them.

1. No More Pop: A recent study revealed that people who drank diet-sodas actually increased bodyfat when compared to those who drank sugar-sodas. DRINK WATER!
2. Stay Hungry: It takes a special person to be hungry... and an even greater one to stay that way. I want you to stay hungry in two ways: In how you workout and literally... stay a bit hungry before you go to bed. Not "starving"... just a bit hungry. For your workouts, here is a great solution. forced progression -- is the best way to stay hungry. 7 Minute Body forces you to progress without thinking about it. Progression is built into the System. As far as staying hungry at night? Check with your doctor and if he/she okays it take 500mg of potassium and 1000mg of magnesium/calcium a few hours prior to bed. This helps with the hunger pangs. Also, keep hard-boiled eggs in the fridge. If you get really hungry, eat one with half the yolk (toss the other half.) It keeps you full for an hour at least.
3. 
   Cardio: Hours and hours of cardio a day is not the answer. However, you can do "light" cardio, brisk walking, or riding the bike at 60% of your max just to burn off calories. That's okay... and personally I don't find it that boring if I'm watching a TV show. It does not interfere with my main fatloss exercise and it burns off about 400 calories an hour. What does work is early morning fasting cardio... but you only need 9-15 minutes.
4. 
   Get Raw At Night: Raw veggies with your last meal and as a snack will really help your fatburning along. Try starting with red peppers because they're sweet. You you'll eat virtually every veggie raw at night without thinking about it. Give this a shot. The fatloss is well worth it.

P.S. Jon is still giving away "Radical Fatloss Blueprint" along
with Every Other Day Diet for a few more days. And I'm giving a lucky few the
chance to pick up the Supplement-Kit that comes with Radical
Fatloss for almost 100 bucks off... the video and details are here:

Burn Fat Fast with Cheap Old School Supplement

If you are into old school bodybuilding, their training, and diet methods you may know about this supplement they used to help shred while maintaining great muscle mass. This supplement has helped many lose weight but not muscle.

You may wonder why it is old school if it works so well, why has it not made the jump to mainstream?

Well quite frankly, over the years, individual supplements just haven't been as "sexy" as the high priced "breakthrough formulas" being marketed. Even more important is that some weight loss and bodybuilding supplements have not been as profitable for the supplement companies!

Enough all ready you want to know what is this amazing supplement that can dramatically increase fat-burning while helping keep the muscle mass you've worked so hard for?

Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCT's)

MCT's are one of those supplements that has been PROVEN to work! Most often they come in oil form, either alone or mixed with coconut oil.

Medium Chain Triglycerides are fats but they do help burn body fat. They can do so because they are digested differently than other fats.

One key factor is that no matter how much you consume MCT's cannot trigger fat storage no matter how much you take! Kind of weird but TRUE!

A second key to their weight loss success is that they produce a LOT of energy and are burned very quickly. This saves your muscles from being broken down for fuel during cycles of intense training.

You can take it alone but I suggest trying the formula in "Homemade Supplements" first because you will see how to use it in combination with a few other cheap supplements to create an excellent personal supplement you can make yourself!

You can learn how to make your own supplements at www.supplementsforpennies.com

If you choose to take it alone you can take a tablespoon by itself during dieting cycles when you need extra energy but don't want to increase your calories.

The two best times to take it are:

1. immediately upon waking

2. or about 20-30 minutes before your weight training workout.

I suggest you take a look into this supplement a try if you are looking to burn body fat while you're still training with weights.

Guess how many pounds of food you eat in a day

Everyday we consume between 3-5 pounds of food.

If you find this hard to believe weight it out sometime. You'll be surprised.

4 pounds seems to be a magic number for the human stomach. Any less and you tend to feel hungry, you're not satisfied. If you eat more than this you're going to feel stuffed.

As you can imagine this has some important implication for health, body composition, and performance.

Supplement Review Guide

Do fat burning supplements work. Can they help with my weight loss? How will a supplement help me burn fat?

Fat burning and energy supplements may be the most over marketed and least understood supplements on the market. With all the marketing an talk about these supplements you may be wondering what is the best fat burning supplement. Better yet you are asking if they can help me lose weight and burn off the stubborn belly fat.

To understand weight loss supplements you have to understand how they work. Fat burning relies on the mitochondria in your cells, so fat burning is happening on the cellular level. The cells mitochondria are sometimes described as "cellular power plants" because they generate most of the cell's supply of adenosine triphosphate, ATP. This ATP is the energy used to make our muscles work. When things are working correctly these little furnaces or cellular power plants also metabolize our bodies fat reserves for energy.

As you may all ready know as you age your metabolism starts to slow. Between the ages of twenty and sixty you will see that your ability to properly process energy is reduced by about fifty percent. Even though you continue to exercise as you get older this is why you may see weight gain.

Supplement Review Guide

In the energy production produces free radicals are created, these substances cause cellular and mitochondrial damage. This damage to your cellular power plants further reduces your metabolism causing your body to store the excess energy as fat.

I am sure you are wondering what this has to do with supplements and your stubborn belly fat. You do not care why it is there you just want it to disappear. Well there has been research done that shows a combination of supplemental caffeine and green tea extract may be able to support the mitochondria in their fat burning work. Supplementing with green tea extract will provide your body with some powerful antioxidants to combat and neutralize free radicals protecting your cells. The second half of the equation is caffeine. Caffeine is an adrenal stimulant that has the ability to help you metabolize fat.

It is important to note that caffeine alone does not do all that much to help burn fat. You will see it in many supplement products because it is a stimulant and you can often feel it in your system. It will increases blood pressure, raise your heart rate, and help you feel like you have more energy thinking you are burning more fat. But do not be fooled. Without the combination of the green tea extract and the caffeine, the caffeine alone is not doing all that much. Once the two are together there is a synergistic effect that occurs and the fat burning starts to happen.

Now what you really need to know, dosage.

Approximately three hundred milligrams of EGCG green tea extract with about two hundred milligrams of caffeine together once a day.

Note:

Two hundred mg of caffeine is a lot, that is in the range of three cups of coffee. Because caffeine is a stimulant you will need to make sure you do not take too much. Many other products, like pop or soda contain caffeine you will have to watch what you ingest, for health issues you will not want to exceed five hundred milligrams of caffeine per day.

Atlanta Eating for your Body Type May be the Way to Go

Atlanta, are you eating for your body type?

Owning a private personal training studio I tend to cater to the people in my neighbourhood, but this information is not limited to those in Atlanta. People everywhere can learn something from this nutritional article.

Body type describes more than the way someone looks, it can provide clues as to how your body will respond to food intake and your hormonal and sympathetic nervous system (SNS) characteristics.

Once know and understand your body type, they can then adjust food to maximize body composition and health related goals.

There are three general categories of body types, but very few if any fall perfectly into one of the three categories. With that said most will have general tendencies of one of the 3 groups.

Eating and exercising according to which group you fall into can make obtaning your fitness related goals that much easier.

Prove Me Wrong

Why BMI Could Actually Discourage Training!

By Charles Staley, B.Sc, MSS
Director, Staley Training Systems

Author’s note: I wrote this when the BMI index began making the news. It struck me that the BMI actually discourages training— see if you agree.

Warning! Exercise Increases Your Risk of Weight-Related Health Problems

The BMI is designed to replace the old height/weight charts created by health insurance companies. But the question remains, what is the accuracy, not to mention, the utility, of the BMI?

What is BMI

You can calculate your BMI by dividing your weight in kilograms by your height in meters squared. (If you'd prefer to spare yourself the mathematical trauma, just head over to The Department of Health and Human Services at http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/ (they have a BMI calculator which you can use to instantly calculate your supposed level of risk of overweight.)

An Interesting Test Case: Me

I recently did just that, and at 205 pounds and a height of 6'1", I landed a whopping BMI of 28— nearly obese by BMI standards.

According to the NIH, you'll need a BMI of 24 or less in order to qualify as having a "normal" weight. So I kept plugging in lower and lower bodyweights, finally going all the way down to 180 pounds to obtain a BMI of 24.

I wonder, what would the consequences of losing 25 pounds be for me? Of course, a fairly large portion of this weight would be muscle— If I make the assumption that I'm currently 15% bodyfat, that means I only have 30.75 pound of fat on my entire body. So, to lose 25 pounds without losing any muscle, I'd end up with less than 2% bodyfat, which is probably not enough to sustain life.

So, that means that the 25 pounds would be mostly muscle. Since a pound of muscle burns approximately 18 calories a day, my metabolic rate would be lowered by 450 calories a day.

Also, this dramatic loss of muscle would certainly profoundly reduce my strength levels. While I have more than enough strength to get through my daily activities, muscle mass and strength both gradually decline as we age.

So I always look at muscle like "money in the bank:" the more I have now,
the more I'll still have when I'm 60, 70, or 80 years of age. So the bottom line seems to be, if I choose to adhere to NIH's guidelines, my health and functional status will surely decline!

Conversely...

Another very important point to consider are the legions of people who will score very acceptable numbers using the BMI, but who in fact are overfat. Despite what many people think, it’s common to find people who appear to be of normal or even low bodyweight, who in fact are overfat, because they have such low levels of muscle mass.

Consider the research conducted by Dr. William Evans at Tufts University: Evans discovered that the as women age, in many cases their leg girth tended to remain constant, however, upon CAT scan analysis, it was found that the fat mass was increased, while the lean mass had decreased. In other words, their external appearance had not significantly changed, yet their bodyfat percentage had increased.

And Even Further...

Because muscle weighs more than fat, embarking on a rapid, unhealthy weight-loss scheme will reduce your BMI much more effectively than losing weight in a healthy and rational manner (the faster you lose weight, the more muscle you lose). So I would like to venture the proposition that the new BMI will encourage fad weight loss programs and starvation diets.

Is There a Better Alternative?

Yes. Have a reputable fitness professional measure your bodyfat percentage (call the International Sports Sciences Association at (800) 892-ISSA to find such a professional in your area). Over the past several years, there have been important new developments in bodyfat measurement techniques, and today, there are several options available. Various methods have varying degrees of accuracy, but if you always use the same method, you’ll have an accurate standard of reference.

In other words, you may not know your exact percentage of bodyfat, but you’ll know if your percentage is increasing or decreasing.

I don’t know why this is such a hard pill to swallow— it’s bodyfat, NOT bodyweight that determines your health and functional capacity. There will never be a height/weight chart, regardless of what anyone chooses to call it, which can predict optimal bodyweight, because such charts never take a person’s muscle mass into account.

The 6 Steps to Fat Loss Success for Beginners

Lose weight with these 6 steps to fat loss

For beginners, getting into fitness can be intimidating and confusing. But it doesn’t have to be that way. In fact, getting fit is one of the most straightforward tasks you’ll attempt in the New Year. Fortunately, reaching your fitness goals requires only two things; discipline, that’s up to you, and a set of simple guidelines, which I’m happy to provide.

First, you should arrange for a full physical examination from your physician. This is mandatory for people that have high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes, or are obese. Once you have your doctor’s approval to begin a fitness program, you should schedule a fitness assessment with a health professional at your gym.

While both of these are incredibly annoying, they are essential to your success and well-being. The benefits of a doctor’s visit are obvious, particularly if you have one or more of the previously mentioned conditions but it also allows you and your doctor to discuss your lifestyle. Preventative medicine is far better than reactive medicine. Make your doctor part of your fat loss and health-building team along with the health professionals at your gym.

The real benefits of the fitness assessment aren’t finding out how much body fat you have or how many minutes you can last on the treadmill, but rather getting a better understanding of your strengths and weaknesses. If you want to avoid injury and actually achieve your goals this year, get to know your strengths and weaknesses.

The next secret is to walk, don’t run, to fitness success. If you want to pick up your University running workouts where you left them 10 years ago, that’s fine. But I guarantee you won’t last 10 days. And then it’ll be a dreary 355 days until you’re ready to try exercise again.

The hidden benefit of a good fitness assessment is that it will actually serve as a nice introductory workout to your return to fitness. It will buffer your delusions of fitness grandeur from the reality of what your body actually can do. After the fitness assessment teaches your body a lesson and awakens your muscles from their winter slumber, only then will you realize your limits that you must respect in subsequent workouts.

Goal-setting is the fourth secret to success (and not just in fitness, but in any area of life). It is much more effective to commit to a set of specific short-term and long-term goals than it is to routinely hope for weight loss each year.

Set realistic goals and remember to train within your limits. If you are currently sedentary and haven’t exercised in months (or years), don’t begin an advanced training program. Start with a conservative beginner program. Your belly wasn’t built in a day, and neither will be lost overnight.

Limit your initial workouts to 1 set per muscle group. In week 2, you should be ready to add another set. And if you want to build up to 3 sets, then do so in week 3. Slowly increase the weight and stay within your desired repetition range. At no time should you be too sore to function. And runners should also heed this advice. Too much running will guarantee shin splints in the early going. Avoid running on back to back days for the first two weeks and keep the distance short. Sore muscles are guaranteed when you lift. So keep the volume low.

And now for 2 super secrets that will help keep you committed and consistent with your workouts and will finally help you lose fat for good.

First, build your social support team.
Social support is the #1 factor for success for women in fitness programs, and is important for men as well. Support can come from your spouse, brother or sister, child, mom or dad, friend, neighbor, co-worker, personal trainer, or lifestyle coach. Don’t try to go it alone. People respond better when they report to a person instead of a machine.

You also need to know that nutrition is the second most important factor for success in fat loss programs. That’s why you don’t need to train like a world-class athlete when you are starting to lose fat. Most of the fat you’ll lose in the early going is because you have chosen to make better nutritional choices. And if you don’t make better nutritional choices, even the best exercise program in the world isn’t going to help you achieve your fat loss goals.

Nutrition is a lot simpler than you think. Don't over think things. See a nutritionist or listen to what your mother told you as a kid. Food choices should contain a large nutrient-to-calorie ratio. Dr. Phil (yes that Dr. Phil) calls this “High-Response Cost, High-Yield Nutrition”. And follow this rule: Don't eat foods with added sugar or high-fructose corn syrup, but make sure to log your nutritional intake. This is a free website that allows you to track your calories, protein, carbohydrates, and fat.

The consistent use of these 6 secrets will help you achieve your fat loss goals this year. Make this year’s fitness plan a strategic investment in your future health. The most efficient and effective way to lose fat is with my Turbulence Training workouts - the choice of fitness professionals.

How to Lose Weight

by Mike Roussell PhD

There are many different ways to lose weight – some ways are very good and some days are very bad. In this article we will look at four wrong ways to go about losing weight and then six effective fat loss strategies that you can use to increase not only your fat loss but the rate in which you lose weight.

First, let’s look at the wrong ways to go about losing weight:

* Focus on Creating an Energy Deficit by Reducing Calories - You need to create an energy deficit but reducing calories leads to the slowing of metabolism. It is important to focus on increasing energy expenditure AND reducing calories (slightly).
* Removal of Dietary Fat - Despite all the advances in science many people still believe that absolute reduction of dietary fat is the key to losing body fat. This is not the case.
* Relying on Weight Loss “Gimmicks” - Eating Cabbage or Grapefruit at every meal to lose body fat isn’t smart. These “diets” rely on absolute caloric restriction to elicit temporary fat loss not some special characteristic of the “gimmick food”.
* Believing Some Chinese Tea Will Make You Thin - These webpages are ALL OVER THE PLACE. People don’t make 1,000s of webpages selling a product unless people are buying the product. There is no magic tea from China that will help you lose weight. Green Tea can help (but you need to drink A LOT). Ignore the celebrity “endorsements” skip the magic tea.

Now that we got that out of the way, let’s look at six strategies that you can use to start losing weight right now. No fluff. This is what you need to do.

* Limit your intake of rice, sugary drinks, potatoes, bread, etc to directly after your workout. This takes advantage of a biochemical window in which your body is put in a state to better process these types of foods instead of having them lay the foundation for another layer of body fat.
* Increase your intake of green leafy vegetables (preferably to every meal). Green leafy vegetables have a ‘volume advantage’ meaning that you get to eat lots of them without eating a lot of calories. This is a huge benefit when dieting as it will help curb your hunger.
* Eat 5-6 times each and every day. Eating more often is a required habit if you want to lose a lot of weight. It will allow for better control over blood sugar levels, a constant flow of nutrients to your body throughout the day, and it will help curb hunger cravings because you will constantly be eating.
* Eat more protein (every meal). Protein is your ace in the hole. It takes more energy to digest than other nutrients, supports the maintenance and protection of your lean body mass, and is a good replacement for carbohydrates as it is not a large stimulator of insulin which you need to control when dieting.
* Participate in metabolically demanding strength training and interval training 3-5 times a week. Metabolic resistance training, categorized by short rest periods and sets of 8-12 reps will help you melt off the fat. Don’t be afraid to lift heavy weights just because you are dieting.
