Fat Loss Confusion

I ran across this article by the creator of the Fat Burning Furnace (sorry I have not done a review of the program yet) Anyway Rob is talking here about something that we see a lot of in the fat loss industry and that is confusion about what to do, especially when we see people promoting concepts that seem to be in conflict with others. Take a quick read and see what you think.

People are confused more than ever about how to burn fat. They are confused about the best way to go about achieving the body they want. They are confused about what works and what doesn’t, and the reasons why. There are countless individuals slaving away in gyms and fitness centers around the country right now.

Many People Are Working Out Very Hard

They are working tirelessly, almost every day, on the treadmill, stair-climber, elliptical, etc. to burn those calories and fat.

They also might be lifting weights several times a week for hours at a time to build some strength and muscle. They might even join a few aerobics or spinning classes too.

They are probably also trying one of the latest diet strategies that promises miracle fat burning and weight loss.

They could also be spending a lot of money on the latest and greatest dietary supplements that could be that miracle pill that will aid in weight loss.

They are also carefully watching the scale as their main judge of fat loss progress.

If it goes up a pound or two, they may behave rashly and maybe even change up their entire workout or diet program! And of course there are others are doing variations on that same theme.

Working Too Hard Can Have Consequences

After all, this is the kind of stuff that many of the popular fitness and diet gurus typically recommend to burn fat. But with so many different strategies and plans being pushed as the be all and end all, what happens is we tend to overboard.

And when that happens, we lose sight of what really matters in achieving lifelong fat burning, fitness and health¦the principles than many people don’t know about, most people have forgotten, and only a select few put to use to achieve lifelong health and fitness. These are the same principles I used to drop over 40 pounds of unwanted body fat, keep it off, and revitalize my life!

With any exercise or nutrition program, you’ll probably lose some fat initially, but far too often the progress doesn’t continue or doesn’t come as fast as the person would like because they’re using a temporary mindset.

They’re only focused on the short term and one specific goal. So they end up switching to something else, and the cycle continues until they’ve become consumed by this cycle of confusion.

I believe that this is one of the biggest, if not the #1 reason for the lack of fat loss and fitness progress that is being experienced by the masses of exercisers and dieters in the world. They are jumping from one fad diet or exercise routine to another, while losing sight of what’s really important, and what really works.

Simply put, they are exercising far too much, not nearly intensely enough, and trying to adhere to unrealistic diet recommendations.

Rob’s Recommendations for Exercise for Fat Burning

If instead they focused on a long term plan, a lifestyle as it’s often called, and didn’t worry about ‘losing 10 pounds by summer’, they would find it far easier to do the right things most of the time.

And those right things include brief, progressive, and intense resistance training, eating a diet full of nutrient rich foods, drinking tons of water, and getting plenty of quality sleep and rest. The students of my Fat Burning Furnace method understand this and are reaping the life long health and fitness rewards because of it. Are you?

Rob created the world’s most efficient method for fast and permanent fat loss with his “Fat Burning Furnace” system to help those looking to put an end to restrictive fad diets, long boring cardio workouts, and the need for super-human willpower for good.

Living Healthier on the Road

No Comments on Living Healthier on the Road

Over the last week I have been living in an airport in Toronto and a hotel that is connected to an airport and working really long days. This situation is a very dangerous one for your health as it seems to take a lot of control out of your hands as far as healthy lifestyle choices are concerned.

Because of the hours and the proximity to the hotel I have no car or even a need for a car and have been handcuffed as far as food choices go so I wanted to give a few tips for travel and eating and exercise for those that have not a lot of these choices.

Some Travel Tips – Remember to Think Ahead

1. Finding fresh fruit and vegetables– First thing that I did when I got booked into the hotel was ask where the nearest market was to get some fruit and veggies.

This is an automatic for me whenever I travel but I got a very vague “Its a long car ride away” and “The restaurant can make you some vegetables” so I knew there would be no help there.

Instead I prowled the airport and found a coffee bar that sells apples and oranges. I get an apple, bran muffin and coffee for breakfast every morning.

2. As far as meals go I have had to be careful – I usually eat what I want out of leftovers but of course the food in an airport can be terrible and so I have taken it as that and made sure to avoid hamburgers and opted instead for Swiss Chalet chicken which, although not the best, was the best I could find.

3. Water consumption – Being is an airport or hotel for 8 days in a row means that you need to stay very hydrated to avoid getting sick as well as staying healthy.

I have been grabbing bottles of water and drinking from the water fountains more that I would even do at home.

Air conditioning really lowers the moisture in the air and I would dry out even worse if I did not stay very conscious of my water intake. I am drinking about 3 liters of water every day.

4. Exercise – My first few days were far too busy to get any exercise so I have been getting more and more motivated over the last few days to do a lot of stretching and even sneaking into the gym at the hotel for short quick workouts just to get all of my muscles moving.

Of course if you are sleep deprived the last thing you want is to compound the problem by tearing down your muscles but I feel like just getting the muscles moving under some is the best thing for me instead of just sleeping.

5. Sleeping – I am very fortunate that the hotel that I am staying at is close to the terminal I am working in as well as having very comfortable beds. I have been trying to fall asleep as early as possible and waking as late as possible but still only getting about 6 hours sleep.

The common wisdom is that you can not catch up sleep later but I think that this short term sleep deficit will disappear after a few days back at home just exercising better and eating as close to perfect as possible.

The problem with trying to catch up sleep is that you do not get much more out of 10 hours sleep as 8 so you just have to be consistent with the 8 hours or whatever you need to sleep (everyone is different).

I think on this trip as much as it has been really unhealthy for me that it is important for anyone to not just fall into the simple road trip failures of lack of sleep and exercise and increasing bad eating, drinking, and alcohol but instead you have to to protect yourself.

Be vigilant in protecting your well being through your sleep, diet and exercise. I know that on this trip I may have drank too much coffee but only as much as I needed and I have been as careful with eating and drinking as possible with nearly no pop and only one beer a few days ago.

Most importantly plan and decide ahead and you will be less prone to making bad mistakes on the road.

Cheat Your Way Thin

Why Workout Hard When You Can Cheat Your Way Thin?

One of the major reasons why many people fail on conventional diets and fad diets is that the prescribed regimens are too strict.

For instance, they might require you to eliminate carbs altogether from your diet for a full week (including things as insignificant as an apple). Initially, these restrictions bring rapid loss, but ultimately, they prove unsustainable.

They’re unsustainable because they don’t accept the reality that human beings are implementing the diets.

In fact, if the diet’s instructions were simply being fed into a robot that then acted out the instructions carefully, there would be no problem at all. But that’s not the case.

If you’re like most people who struggle to lose weight, you struggle to do so because you simply cannot give up your favorite foods. You cannot adopt an austere diet that forces you to starve yourself and to give up an important pleasure in your life: the taste of great food.

This is where Cheat Your Way Thin will come in handy.

Fortunately for you, there’s a diet that claims to allow you to do just that: to consume the foods that you love on a regular basis as part of your diet. And not only does it allow you to do it, it’s an actual requirement of the diet.

Enter a New Fitness Program – Cheat your way thin

So what is this diet, you ask? It’s called “Cheat Your Way Thin“. And, not surprisingly, it is called that because it allows you to consume delicious food that would be considered “cheating” in the context of most other diets, but it will still permit you to lose -and lots of it-at the same time.

To make things better, this diet isn’t your typical, fly-by-night program with no known creator. Joel Marion, the founder of the “Cheat Your Way to Thin” method, is a Certified Sports Nutritionist with the International Society of Sports Nutrition. Additionally, his work has been featured in Oxygen, in Lifescript, in Women’s Day, in Men’s Fitness, in Musclemag, on NBC, and on Fox News to name just a few places.

Marion is both well-known and well-trusted. And, as he claims, his product not only resulted from the knowledge that he accumulated over many years he spent in the fitness industry, but also from the serious mistakes he made throughout his career.

Cheat Your Way Thin is of course not one of them.

With all of this said, what can you expect from the Cheat your way thin product?

There are two parts.

The first part contains audio that explains how the diet was created, as well as the science that backs up how it works.

And the second part is a 53-page ebook that contains an exhaustive run-down of the program.

How Does Cheat Your Way Thin Work?

Marion’s approach consists of two parts: diet and exercise. For the dietary portion, he has readers to rotate between high GI days, low GI days, and low carb days.

And for the exercise portion, he has readers perform 3 different exercise sessions per week.

Overall, the Cheat Your Way Thin ebook contains an excellent and highly-specific overview of how you can improve your diet and adopt an effective workout regimen. And best of all, it comes from a real person with real credentials.

As far as buyers may be are concerned, this product appears to deliver on its promises. However, some argue that it focuses too much on requiring you to buy expensive auxiliary products, such as protein shakes.

But on the upside, it allows you to have “cheating days,” which will make your diet much easier to maintain in the long run. It also offers simplicity by focusing on portion control, rather than on calorie counting, which is often infeasible.

Overall Cheat Your Way Thin is a fantastic way to gain muscle and lose fat and Joels experience as a winner of the Body for Life contest proves he really knows what he is talking about.
