Swedish Weight Loss Secret + Download Turbulence Training Bodyweight Workout
For years I’ve been yelling and screaming about the importance of online
social support (i.e. having Internet weight loss buddies).
And finally, after all these years, the Swedes have proven this weight loss
secret (and no, it’s not just “eat fewer Swedish meatballs”).
Researchers at the world famous Karolinska Institute wanted to find out why
some men and women succeed at weight loss while others don’t.
Here’s how to combat Diet Disasters
People often think that in order to reach their Fat Loss goals they have to be perfect all the time. Not true.
Do you think I never “fall off the wagon”?
…Like the brownies at the last party I went to holding me hostage in one corner of the room, rendering me completely helpless with no emergency organic carrots in sight.
How To Determine If You Are a Hardgainer + Free e-book Shape up Now
The popular definition of a hardgainer is a person that works out hard with weights but has a hard time putting on muscle. Six weeks of working out can go by and no significant changes in muscle size are noted other than perhaps a bit of an increase in muscle tone.
According to this popular definition of a hardgainer, all of us are “hardgainers” because for the most part, putting on muscle is not an easy endeavor. The easiest period to gain muscle is during puberty. After that, gaining muscle becomes progressively harder as we age due to the fact that hormonal production starts declining between the ages of 25 and 30.
4 Foods for More Fat Loss
What foods should I eat for maximum fat loss? This is a common question that I get from clients and friends. There is so much new information out there everyday “X food is now good for you but Y food is now bad.” How can you possibly sort through all the junk science and sensational reporting to truly find out which foods will help you lose weight and which foods won’t?
Let me help. Here’s a look at foods that you should eat to maximize fat loss. These foods are listed in no particular order because they are all important.
When to do conditioning
With summer rapidly approaching I’ve been getting lots of questions about which conditioning methods will help you get ripped and in playing shape without compromising your size or strength, and exactly when should you do them.
First of all, I recommend a strength training schedule of Monday, Wednesday and Friday. This leaves Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday or Sunday for conditioning and/or playing. To start you should be training on a four way upper/lower split. This means that you have two upper body days and two lower body days. You train three days per week rotating through the four workouts; so some weeks you will do upper body twice and other weeks you do lower body twice.
The Stomach Vacuum The Forgotten Exercise
The vast majority of people who engage in countless sets and repetitions of abdominal exercises such as crunches, leg lifts, and twists fail to see dramatic improvement, as if something is lacking. Are you among those who religiously train your abdominals, yet still fight the distending gut syndrome?
I can teach you a simple technique to reduce your midsection in as little as three weeks! By incorporating this technique, with your regular abdominal training and proper diet, it will reduce the size of your waist, and help to give you a carved midsection!
Are Abs Machines Necessary?
I’ll be honest… the average person doesn’t possess the patience required to develop a great set of abs or the work ethic to maintain it.
They lack the discipline and determination needed to achieve their goal. Many people go on “quick fix” fad diets to reduce their midsection. Others buy every
ab training gizmo and gadget advertised on TV only to end up folding them up and sliding them under the bed or using them as “expensive clothes hangers.”
Based on the amount of email I get on the subject, I know how fixated most men and women are about finding the “Holy Grail” of abdominal development in some type of machine advertised on TV.

Doberman Dan Barks Bench Press Pyramiding Bites!
“How You Can Add Up TO 50 Pounds To Your Bench Press IMMEDIATELY By NOT Pyramiding!”
From my very introduction to the Iron Game over 20 years ago, (geez, that makes me sound old!) all of the literature, books, and courses I’ve read or followed advocated “pyramiding” your weights on the basic exercises.
If you don’t know what “pyramiding” is, here’s an example using the bench press:
Set 1: 12 reps with 135 lbs.
When is it OK to eat Sugar?
One of two things happens when you even mention the word Sugar…people either jump up for joy, salivating for their next sugar fix or they go running in the opposite direction and avoid it like the plague (Hmm Lewis, which one are you?)
The sugar lovers, well, they just love their sugar and would probably sprinkle it on broccoli if that was socially acceptable. While others are so afraid of it they are even scared to eat foods like bananas, carrots and onions because of their high sugar content..huh?
A Double Dose of Metabolism Protection: Strategic Carbohydrate Cycling
In last weeks update I talked to you about the most important hormone you probably never heard of – leptin. If you missed that update, do NOT pass go, do NOT collect $200 until you have read that article. It really is that important and I guarantee you’ll walk away from that article having learned a lot. Click-here if you missed it.
Without a doubt the most important thing you can do while attempting to drop body fat is to maintain high levels of leptin day in and day out.
With Cheat Your Way Thin, we accomplish this via two different means:
The MOST important hormone you never heard of!
LEPTI-WHA??
It’s name is Leptin (derived from the Greek word leptos, meaning “thin”), and it’s without a doubt the most important hormone you probably never heard of.
You see, leptin was only first discovered just over 10 years ago, and as far as weight loss is concerned, that’s extremely recent.
Leptin’s function? To communicate your nutritional status to your body and brain.
Leptin levels are mediated by two things. One is your level of body fat. All else being equal, people with higher levels of body fat will have higher leptin levels than those with lower levels of body fat and vice versa.
Plateaus of Weight Loss- Adaptive Thermogenesis + FREE Download.
Weight loss plateaus can be frustrating and detrimental to your fat loss if not dealt with swiftly and properly. Another way to look at weight loss plateaus is that they are actually your body settling in at a new body weight set point.
The set point theory is basically the idea that your body likes to be at a certain body weight and it will work to keep you there. Chances are you have experienced this in your own life. I’m talking about situations where you will gain or lose weight but inevitably after a couple weeks or months of trying to change you end up around the same body weight (I know for me 175lbs was a set point, in my own system for quite some time).

Is 6 meals a day still the way to go?
The topic of the “6 meals a day for fat loss” has been touted by bodybuilding circles and personal trainers for years now as the best way to eat for fat loss compared to the traditional “3 square meals a day”.
But is this 6-meal per day frequency the ONLY way to do it? And is it really the most effective?
Well, the answer can go both ways. Let me give you my opinion on this…
First, let’s look at what the recommended 6 meals/day instead of 3 really breaks down to calorically… On 3 meals/day, let’s take the example of a normal person that might be eating 3,000 calories per day, but eating those calories in three 1,000-calorie meals (or more likely, two 1500-calorie meals for someone that skips breakfast).
Are the rich more healthy?
While the rich and the affluent still face many of the problems that come with the “king’s lifestyle”, a new pattern is emerging in the United States and, predictions state, Europe.
A new study shows that the trend of ill-health and obesity is shifting rapidly to the poor and less educated portions of the country.
The reason this is important to us all, other than a concern for our nation’s health as a whole, is the economic strain this will place on our already burdened health care system.
