Moderate-Intensity Exercise May Melt More Pounds

I’ve been preaching the benefits of moderate-intensity cardiovascular activity for burning more body fat for years. I’m not talking about yard work or cleaning your house — I’m talking about brisk walks (especially done fasting first thing in the morning) and other forms of long duration moderate exercise. The routines in Fit Over 40 that I personally give are perfect examples of blending low and high intensity exercise in a way to get the best out of both methods of training.

Ever heard of Rowdy Gains?

Rowdy was swimmer and Olympic gold-medalist in the 1984 Olympics.

But that’s not what made Rowdy special.

And certainly not what makes his story worth reading when it comes to muscle-shaping secrets.

Over the next few days I’m going to be sharing 5 Tips for putting on lean muscle. If you want to put on a 2 lbs or 20lbs of muscle, these 5 Tips will help you do it faster than ever.

Remember: Muscle burns calories at rest… the more lean muscle you have the less bodyfat you’ll have if you eat the way I suggest. It’s as simple as that.

Back to Rowdy Gains…

Fitness One-liners: The Best Diet/Workout Ever

What is your favorite one-liner?

Most people think of one-liners as either pick-up lines for the ladies or one-liner jokes.

Rodney Dangerfield was a master of one-liner jokes.

One of my favorite was:

“When it comes to women, I never cry…I beg.”

I guess that’s both a joke and a pick-up line! Ha….

Swine Flu – a good reason to stay lean !

I want to share something with you today. There’s a lot more to be said on the subject, such as the suspected and partly proven origins of the “swine” flu, but for now I just want you to be aware of a couple of little things.

It seems that the US is planning on mandatory vaccination … what, at gun-point? How else are they going to force people? Threaten to take their homes, cars, kids away?

Do you need more cardio to get rid of the belly fat?

Well, according to the trainer a colleague of mine saw last week, yes. He also told her to eat low fat cottage cheese, low-fat or fat-free cheese, 0% fat yoghurt etc with that same goal in mind. Finally she was told to cut out fried food and rice.

The thing I can agree with, is cutting the fried foods, as long as we’re talking deep fried and not sautéed in a pan with a spray of cooking oil.

Eliminating rice? No, why? Rice is fine, in moderation (i.e. portion control) and as long as you chose the whole grain rice rather than the polished, white variety with all nutrients removed. Oh, and have that rice for lunch, not for supper.
