Six Pack Abs Circuit Training
In my previous article about 3 minute abs I introduced you to the concept of training your abs as hard as possible in only 3 minutes. Just to recap, choose 3 abdominal exercises and work them for 30 seconds each with no gaps of rest between any of them. When you have done the 3 exercises repeat them all immediately until you have exercised for 3 minutes.
Today I will show you another way to blast your abs in only 3 minutes.
This is what to do:
Exercise #1 for 30 seconds
Exercise #2 for 30 seconds
Repeat three times with no rest between any of the exercises.
This time you are only doing 2 exercises for the 3-minute circuit. The same principles apply as before where you go from one exercise to the other without any rest.
The 2 exercises I have found to work very well are:
Exercise #1 The V Sit Up
Lie face up on the floor with your head touching the floor. Place your arms straight by the side of your head and straighten your legs so they are touching each other.
The aim of the exercise is to bring your legs, arms and head off the floor at the same time. Ideally you should come up so your body imitates a V shape. I have found bringing your head a few inches off the floor and arms and legs around 12 inches off the ground works just as hard for most people. Make sure you start each rep with your head; arms and legs touching the floor so you work in the full range and prevent your neck from hurting.
The tempo should be 2 seconds each way and try and focus on recruiting the abdominal muscles every time you lift off the ground. In other words don’t force your body up by throwing your arms and legs upwards.
Exercise #2 The Plank
Begin lying face down on the floor with your feet together and forearms on the ground; hands should be clenched in a fist. Draw the abs inward, squeeze your backside muscles and lift the entire body off the ground until it forms a straight line from head to toe, remember you are resting on your forearms and toes.
Forearms should be parallel and elbows directly below the shoulders. Keep the back flat throughout your set and chin tucked. Hold this position until you can maintain good form and slowly return to the ground.
Remember when you have done the 2 exercises in a row for 30 seconds each go back to the first and repeat them 3 times so you get a 3 minute workout.
What makes this circuit popular is the fact that you can do it absolutely anywhere and it only takes 3 minutes.

Ways to Burn More Calories at Work
Ways to Shred Fat at Work – Lose More Weight Doing the Same Job
Are you looking for a way to burn more calories without it interfering with your day-to-day work schedule? There are a number of ways to move around differently at work that will increase your body’s demand to use more calories. Thinking outside the box and changing some lazy habits can make all the difference between storing your last meal as fat and burning the fat from your body.
Lets take a look at some ways to increase your activity output at work.
Commuting
If you don’t live far from work how about walking to work? If this sounds too overwhelming at first thought how about walking one way and getting a lift back? You could even break this down even more by walking alternative days until you get used to the idea. Not only is it good exercise for you but you are doing your bit for the environment too.
Talking of saving the environment, if you live several miles away from work and walking to work is out of the question you could opt for cycling to work instead. The same principles apply, you could try alternative days until you get used to the idea. Once you get into moving your body more the sooner you will crave more exercise.
For those who can’t avoid using transport to get to work don’t worry because there are ways to use more calories by using your feet more.
If you travel by bus you could get off at the stop before work and walk the rest of the way. The same applies when going home as well; get off the stop before home. This simple strategy could give you up to 3 hours more exercise each week.
If you drive to work you could leave your car a mile from work and walk the rest of the way. Or at least park it a few streets away. The best thing you could do with driving to work is organising a car sharing scheme where you take it in turns to drive a colleague to work and vice versa. The crunch is when it is your colleagues turn to pick you up you arrange to be picked up a mile from home and dropped off a mile from home at the end of the day giving you a reason to walk.
5 Ways to burn more calories at work
1. Take the stairs every time.
2. Get out and walk at lunchtimes.
3. Get on your feet when talking on the phone and walk.
4. Volunteer at every opportunity you get to get out of the office and take the stairs.
5. Volunteer for strenuous jobs whenever possible, in other words don’t be afraid to break into a sweat at work. Click to Lose Weight, Fat & Inches with a simple eating plan.

3-Minute Abs Circuit For a Better Six Pack
Quick Six Pack Workout
I have found a way of training the abs as hard as possible in only 3 minutes. You could try different abdominal exercises with the following method but my favourite way to do this circuit is to do 3 lower abdominal type exercises back to back. You get an unbelievable burn in your six-pack during this circuit, it is more difficult and beneficial for working the abs then the standard approach of doing a set and resting and repeating.
Get FREE Six Pack Diet Tips
This is what to do:
Exercise #1 for 30 seconds
Exercise #2 for 30 seconds
Exercise #3 for 30 seconds
Repeat once with no rest between any of the exercises.
Move immediately from exercise 1, 2 and 3 and repeat them all making sure there are no gaps of rest. This will give you 3 minutes of hard work. A great way to get the most from exercising your abs whether you want to get ripped or shred body fat.
The 3 exercises I like to use are:
Exercise #1 Leg Lowering
Lie face up on the floor and place your hands underneath your low back. Rest on your elbows and forearms so your head is off the floor, your upper body remains in this position during the set. Now straighten you legs and begin to lift your legs off the floor. Aim to bring your legs around 2 feet high above the floor and return them towards the floor but don’t touch the floor on the descent with your legs. The idea is to lift your straight legs up and down without touching the floor for 30 seconds.

It is important to keep pressure on your hands throughout the set, make sure your low back stays in contact with your hands at all times. If you feel your back arching bring your tummy in towards your spine. If you find it difficult to keep pressure on your hands try bending your legs a little.
Exercise #2 Reverse Crunch
Lie on your back with your head on the floor and arms by your side. Bend your knees so your feet are as close to your butt as possible. Now lift your feet off the floor so your thighs are vertical. This position is your start position for every rep; don’t start each rep with your feet on the floor.
From the start position gently roll your low back off the floor and bring your knees towards your chest. When you reach the furthest position you are capable of achieving pause for a second before returning to the start position. Repeat for 30 seconds.
Exercise #3 Knee Push
For this exercise you need to be in the same position as the start position for the reverse crunch exercise. Lie on your back with your head in contact with the floor during the set. Keep the feet off the floor and thighs in a vertical position.
The aim of the exercise is to push your knees up towards the ceiling. Depending on the strength of your abs will determine whether your butt leaves the floor or not. You are striving to push your knees around one inch upwards, that is enough distance to work the exercise properly.
Keep the head and upper body as relaxed as possible during the exercise, this will make your abs work more. The tempo should be moderate and there shouldn’t be any bouncing. Repeat for 30 seconds.
Don’t forget when you have done the 3 exercises in a row go back to the first and repeat them all so you get a 3 minute workout.
You could do this workout at home, at the gym, in the office, hotel room, on the balcony, on the beach or outside in the park. There are no limitations with this workout. Get your individual Six Pack Diet blueprint today.

Lose a Pound a Day – You’ve Got To Be Joking – a Better Way to Lose Weight
A shortcut to extreme weight loss
Whenever I see an advert promising extreme weight loss in a short amount of time it makes me cringe at the thought of someone stepping on the scales each day and expecting weight to quickly drop off.
It is possible to transform your body shape without ever stepping on the scales. Regular weigh-ins doesn’t suit certain personalities. It takes a strong willed person to get weighed everyday and not let it faze them in any way shape or form. Everybody’s weight can fluctuate from day to day and from morning to night causing a negative impact on the person’s mind who regularly gets weighed.
The kind of people that have a history of daily weigh-ins and an addiction for wanting extreme weight loss and the pounds to drop off at all costs needs to stay the hell away from weighing scales. I would strongly recommend throwing them away for your own good.
Getting weighed everyday is not beneficial at all. If you do get weighed everyday, taking an average over a ten-day period is the most reliable way to do it. But this is only applicable if the variables are consistent.
So what is a better alternative to extreme weight loss? If you have the personality type that steers towards obsessive and living by numbers then you have to be completely honest with yourself, do you want numbers or do you want to look better?
The absolute best way to measure progress is to measure different parts of the body. Always take the measurements over the largest part of the body to keep the readings consistent. If you can’t be bothered to go through the motions of measuring different body parts every week or so then my next best recommendation would be to use the mirror for feedback or even taking photographs to track changes in your body shape.
Another way, which is the easiest and most unavoidable way to track whether or not you are losing weight, is to use the fitting of your clothes. Don’t forget to stay away from routine weigh-ins if you fall into the obsession category. That way you will be able to continue doing what you need to do to lose weight without any negativity getting in the way.

Lose Weight & Inches in 10 Days – the Natural Diet From Years of Research
Finding the right diet that works for you
I have tried all sorts of diets in the past but I was never impressed by any of them. After years of experimenting I discovered a very powerful way to lose weight and reduce fat. This could be the most important article you ever read about dieting so do yourself a favour and spend a minute to discover exactly what this diet is all about.
Discover how to Lose Weight, Fat & Inches in Only 10 Days!
After years of trying different types of diets on my clients and myself I came across the best and quickest way to lose inches and drop body fat that I had ever witnessed. It is worth mentioning before I go any further that I recommend avoiding fad diets of any kind especially if a celebrity endorses it. Those types of diets will cost you in future weight loss and fat loss attempts. The more you put your body through extreme dieting the more you screw up your metabolism in terms of it slowing down. Metabolism is the rate your body burns calories and it can take your metabolism a very long time to recover from a diet and get back to normal speed again. Famine type diets that restrict nutrients from the body help kick start a life long obsession to achieve your ideal body shape. All this does is encourages you to try different diets that are equally as bad as the last one you tried.
The most effective diet I have found to lose a lot of pounds and reduce fat fast involves controlling the types of carbohydrates in the diet and making sure to eat good quality proteins with every meal.
This diet will force extreme weight loss and fat loss simply because it is based on balancing blood sugar levels throughout the day. This alone is the secret to achieving your ideal body shape and keeping hunger pangs at bay.
Discover how to Lose Weight, Fat & Inches in Only 10 Days!
The action steps required to make this diet work at its optimum level is to modify the ratios between the carbohydrate foods and the protein foods until you are happy with the speed of progress. If you are ready to Lose Weight, Fat & Inches Click Here.

How to Make a Natural Energy Drink - Sugar Free
Power Tea - Here is How to Make Your Own Sports Drink
I have been scouting for alternatives to commercial sports and protein drinks for a while. The reason is because just about all energy drinks and protein drinks on the market are full of sweeteners and artificial additives. I don’t know about you but I don’t think drinking anything containing artificial ingredients at a time when your body needs the nutrients the most is going to benefit you short term and definitely not long term.

Here is how to make Power Tea
This tea can be used for anyone and not just athletes. One of the main ingredients is Gelatin, Gelatin from Beef is the preferred choice but unless you live in the U.S.A. it can be difficult to get hold of. At the time of writing this I am not aware of anyone in the E.U. selling Gelatin from Beef. If anyone reading this knows anyone who supplies Gelatin from Beef in Europe please leave a comment below.
To make Power Tea dissolve one to two level tablespoons of Great Lakes Gelatin per cup of boiling water. If you prefer you could mix it into a little water at room temperature just before adding the boiling water.
You can flavour the tea with ginger; ginger is a natural anti-inflammatory herb. Or you could use peppermint herbal tea or both. You can also add half a tablespoon of coconut oil with each tea.
On the other hand you don’t need to do either, you can just drink it straight. Power tea can be consumed 3 times daily and a way to make it convenient is to make a thermos with 3 cups in the morning and drink it throughout the day.
Power tea builds strong and powerful ligaments, tendons, cartilage and muscle. It can also help enhance mental and emotional power. The tea is complete protein and high in amino acids, your body will be able to absorb and make the most of all of it.

If you are a lean athlete in intensive training you may add 2 teaspoons of dextrose per cup of Power Tea.

Is Food 100% Responsible For the Way You Look?
Food for thought when it comes to fat loss
Your diet is probably responsible for the way you look right now. Having excess body fat and being over weight is not a symptom of not using the treadmill a few times a week. If you don’t believe me just look at all the gym members the world over that quit everyday because they never achieve any results. They hit the treadmill in their droves religiously and still never get anywhere. The next time you are down the gym take a closer look at all the dedicated gym members that continue to exercise week after week and year after year yet still don’t look any different for their efforts. The majority of these people spend their workout time doing cardiovascular exercises. The type we have been led to believe is the answer to all over weight problems.
Discover how to Lose Weight, Fat & Inches in Only 10 Days!
The mainstream media and the diet and exercise industry have programmed people to believe exercise is the answer to fat loss. How many people head straight into exercise routines without bothering to change their diet? A lot I can tell you.
From years of experience training people I have discovered the people who eat a bad diet are looking for a quick fix with exercise. They are hardly ever willing to change their diet without waiting a few months. This is to see if their exercise regime will give them the body they want. Then after all their invested time spent exercising fails to deliver the fat loss they want they more often then not throw in the towel.
Investing in eating a clean balanced diet from the beginning is the quickest way to get healthy and lose fat. You can’t out train a diet full of bad calories. If you live on processed junk foods and fail to get the right balance of nutrients everyday from natural foods then it is highly likely that you will feel lethargic and not look as good as you should. The effects of eating well show up on your body and keeps you feeling energised all day long. A far cry to what a few workouts a week on the treadmill can give you.

How to Lose Fat Fast
There is a way to eat for fat loss
If you want to achieve fat loss and get six pack abs you need to follow certain steps like anything else in life. There is a way and a system for just about everything and dieting and exercising is no exception. Below is my list of essential things to do to lose stubborn body fat fast.
Drink plenty of mineral water
Water is the best drink you can have without a doubt. Water helps to cleanse the body and supports good health.
Only eat non-processed foods
The next time you pick up a packet of food, look at the ingredients and see if you can pronounce the ingredients, chances are you can’t. This is common with processed foods today, they contain artificial ingredients and additives that can make you toxic and give your digestive system a hard time. The last thing you want if you want to be healthy and have low body fat levels. You can’t beat natural foods found in nature.
Don’t drink pasteurised milk
Commercial milk contains antibiotics and growth hormones. The pasteurisation process kills the important enzymes as well as destroying vitamins and amino acids. Lactose intolerance, which is common food intolerance, prevents the body from digesting milk sugars. There is no real value to drinking pasteurised milk and has no place in a fat loss programme.
Avoid sugar
Avoid sugar especially artificial sweeteners found in processed foods and drinks. Eating sugar creates a never-ending roller coaster ride for hormones such as insulin and cortisol, both fat storing hormones.
Cut out all wheat
Wheat and foods containing gluten can be very hard to digest and intolerance to this can cause gut inflammation as well as other allergy troubles. Try eliminating gluten for 30 days to see what difference it makes to the way you look and feel.
Don’t drink alcohol
Drinking alcohol has some of the same traits has eating sugar, it is rapidly absorbed and effects blood sugar levels. Alcohol is empty calories that have no nutritional benefit whatsoever to your body. If you drink alcohol near meal times it can serve as a blocking agent to certain vitamins and minerals.
Eliminate all caffeine
It is not only your morning coffee that contains caffeine but sports drinks too. Caffeine has an effect on blood sugar levels and can cause cravings and the release of fat storing hormones. Decaffeinated coffee isn’t any better either, decaf drinks tend to have more pesticides than regular coffee.
Eat organic whenever possible
Organic food is natural, the way it should be without any interference from mankind. When food is organic it is clean and full of nutrients without the chemicals or drugs used in conventional farming. Our bodies can digest and assimilate organic food easier and it doesn’t pollute our insides at the same time. Start today and achieve fat loss and get six pack abs fast.

Avoid sugar especially artificial sweeteners found in processed foods and drinks. Eating sugar creates a never-ending roller coaster ride for hormones such as insulin and cortisol, both fat storing hormones.
Cut out all wheat
Wheat and foods containing gluten can be very hard to digest and intolerance to this can cause gut inflammation as well as other allergy troubles. Try eliminating gluten for 30 days to see what difference it makes to the way you look and feel.
Don’t drink alcohol
Drinking alcohol has some of the same traits has eating sugar, it is rapidly absorbed and effects blood sugar levels. Alcohol is empty calories that have no nutritional benefit whatsoever to your body. If you drink alcohol near meal times it can serve as a blocking agent to certain vitamins and minerals.
Eliminate all caffeine
It is not only your morning coffee that contains caffeine but sports drinks too. Caffeine has an effect on blood sugar levels and can cause cravings and the release of fat storing hormones. Decaffeinated coffee isn’t any better either, decaf drinks tend to have more pesticides than regular coffee.
Eat organic whenever possible
Organic food is natural, the way it should be without any interference from mankind. When food is organic it is clean and full of nutrients without the chemicals or drugs used in conventional farming. Our bodies can digest and assimilate organic food easier and it doesn’t pollute our insides at the same time. Start today and achieve fat loss and get six pack abs fast.

Ways to Save Money With Dieting and Gym Memberships
Save Money With Dieting
Most people join gyms with a clear mind of what they want. As soon as they sign up they hit the treadmill followed by a few crunches and hope in a few months time they will achieve their objective. There is a never-ending flow of people that are willing to buy into the belief that investing time exercising will yield results.
The other side of getting in shape is dieting; most people follow fad diets or join diet clubs wanting to transform the way they look in a limited time.
What you have are two different actions to solve the same problem. Both seem straightforward. So why do so many people never achieve their fat loss goal and give up after falling at the first hurdle?
There are numerous reasons why people never achieve results but the common ones are because they are doing the least effective options available. The least effective exercise and dieting methods costs you big money and wastes a lot of time and effort.
Did you know that most gyms only have around 20% of their members use the gym regularly? That means some people join up and only use the gym once costing them a full years membership for one session. Or you get others that use the gym once a month or even once a week that will still cost a staggering amount per visit when you calculate it. The reasons for this are normally a lack of motivation or no direction to follow.
So how can you save money with gym memberships if you are locked into a 12-month contract? If you are new to exercise it is essential to invest in expert advice so you are spending your time doing the most effective methods available for your goals. Once you follow the right way the sooner you will see results and the less chance of you giving up. After all who would want to stop if something is working?
Personal trainer fees can seem expensive but so are gym memberships that never get used. This applies to fad dieting as well. Why waste time following a diet that never delivers? Wouldn’t it be easier following an expert’s advice and save time and money in the process? How many times do unsuccessful dieters buy into the next wonder pill? It always comes back to spending more money and wasting more time then necessary.
All this can be avoided by following the most effective methods available by asking for an expert’s opinion. Always seek a trainer with credentials and good experience. Decide by what they can do for you and not what it costs you because failing to reach your goal will cost you more in the end.

How To Achieve Fat Loss Before Your Next Birthday
Do You Want to Look Slimmer Before Your Next Birthday?
No one I know is immune to the following:
Processed food
Junk food
Consuming excessive calories
Eating the wrong kind of calories
Leading a sedentary lifestyle
Not managing stress levels
Very few of us can get away with contributing zero time to regular exercise and eat any type of calories and still look good. I would say less than 1% of the population but bear in mind that this lucky 1% won’t have the health benefits of someone who exercises and eats healthily. If you want to Lose Weight, Fat & Inches and look your best it is absolutely essential you know which foods to eat and apply it to your lifestyle in order to be able to enjoy all the benefits.
On the other side of the coin you could still be unhealthy if you follow eating guidelines that are wrong for your body type no matter who tells you otherwise. In some cases you could even be worse off for exercising by doing too much than someone who doesn’t do any at all. What I am trying to get across is that the answer is always in front of your eyes, if you are not happy with the way you look it is highly likely that your current eating plan or lifestyle is wrong for you. If it works for someone else it doesn’t mean it will work for you. Many people spend years doing the same thing over and over again without getting the results they want, in my mind this is madness. There are always reasons for not achieving results and there will always be alternatives to try.
But how many people actually try different approaches before quitting?
Exercising or eating a certain way and not changing in anyway, shape or form is a sign to wake up and time to take a reality check. See if any of the actions below are familiar to you.
Deprived sleep
Living on stimulants
Skipping breakfast
Eating processed food
Eating junk food
Smoking
Not drinking enough water
Consuming excessive calories
Consuming the wrong calories
Extreme dieting
High stress levels
Leading a sedentary lifestyle
Not doing any resistance type movements
Binge eating
Binge drinking
Prioritising the wrong kind of exercises
Doing too much exercise with not enough rest
Any of the above can lead to a poor body image and a negative state of mind. The sooner you can change your lifestyle the sooner you will achieve Fat Loss & Lose Weight, Fat & Inches.

How to Eat Healthy at Work
How To Plan A Fat Loss Diet
I’ve heard the same excuses a thousand times, you are too busy to eat healthy or something comes up at work that prevents you from eating at all. Planning is the key by learning to become organised and manage time as efficiently as possible. It is the only way to achieve your fat loss goals.
Lets take a look at some solutions for different scenarios at work.
Making the right decisions by preparing your own meals
If you are serious about fat loss then taking your own food to work will help you control what you eat. Prepare your food for work at the beginning of the day or the night before. Learn to take responsibility and control the types of food you eat. This is your chance to choose between healthy foods or foods from a vending machine or a canteen that serves processed and de-vitalised junk food.
Tip: one example of a healthy meal is to take a bowl containing a chopped up salad with cold cuts of meat or fish. The salad could contain, spinach, pepper, green beans, asparagus, sugar snap peas, tomatoes or spring onions to name just a few. Add a little dressing in the tune of seed oil or vinegar and hey presto you have a very healthy lunch you can graze on during the day.
Discover How to Eat Healthy at Work and reduce fat.
If emails and phone calls rob you from taking a break
Tip: set the alarm on your watch every 3 to 4 hours to remind you to eat. Give yourself at least 5-10 minutes where you don’t answer emails or phone calls, divert calls if necessary or let calls go straight to the answer machine.
You are worth this time; your health is more valuable than trying to beat the never-ending stream of work that will always be there no matter how long and hard you try to beat it. When you do this make sure you leave the desk so you can’t be distracted and you can enjoy your food in peace.
When impromptu meetings that take longer than expected
There are times when a liquid meal will be more convenient and a lifesaver. Keeping a meal replacement sachet in your bag for unforeseeable situations is a good precaution. Try not to rely on liquid meals and substitute them for solid foods because solid meals excite the metabolism more than liquids.
Tip: the best meal replacements are those that contain whey protein and have no aspartame and are low in sugars. Meal replacements are easy to prepare, they mix easily in a screw top shaker with a little water and a few shakes. Because of the protein content in a lot of meal replacements it is a wise choice for women to just have half a sachet. Most meal replacements are designed for male bodybuilders and women’s daily protein requirements differ from that of a male bodybuilder. I personally prefer to add a tablespoon of flaxseed oil when mixing the meal replacement drink to help slow down the insulin response. Take the first step and discover How to Eat Healthy at Work and achieve fat loss.

Different Ways to Lose Weight
How to lose stubborn weight and fat
Dieters always assume if they are not achieving fat loss the reasons must be food related. This may be the case for some people but I can assure you that there are other reasons other than food for lacking progress with shifting stubborn weight and fat.
Lets look at two of them.
Glossy magazines and the media
The kind of magazines I am talking about is the kind that heavily feature celebrities. In these magazines you can find unattainable body shapes and unhealthy diet crazes. One look at these magazines is enough to throw anyone off course and feel inferior. Just how healthy do you think these stick insect celebrities actually are?
The media is responsible for distorting and cherry picking health and fitness related information in order to gain your attention so they can stay in business by selling more copies. It is very important to be cautious when reading and using advice in these publications. The full picture is seldom discussed in the magazine or newspaper article. It is best for you and your fat loss goals if you steer away from these publications for your own good. If a diet sounds too good to be true it normally means it isn’t true and is just made up to make it sound interesting.
Social support
Are you running out of motivation and steam? Let me tell you from experience having a good set of friends and family around you is essential for successful fat loss. You need to tell those closest to you what your intentions are so you can gain their support during your journey. Sharing conversations about your goals and the difficulties you face can be the best thing you can do to motivate yourself towards the fat loss you want. More often than not a problem shared is a problem solved.
The more open you are the more support you will receive; you may even encourage and gain a diet buddy along the way. Those that try and do things on their own and shut themselves off from the outside world are more likely to fail due to the lack of support. Don’t be a statistic, be a success and share your goals.

The Best Fat Loss Plan For You
Ways To Get Rid Of Fat
What Do You Want To Look Like?
Write this down; describe everything in the finest detail to the body shape you want to the amount fat you want to carry around with you.
Compare it to where you are now.
The importance of having a vision of what you want to look like is important because it keeps you on track. Imagine going on a road trip without a destination, its pretty pointless unless its what you want but with fat loss it is a different set of rules. You can’t treat fat loss like a mystery tour and expect to end up where you want, you need to be focused in order to get where you want.
What Time Frame Do You Want This To Happen?
Be realistic but don’t be too conservative, a bit of pressure is good.
Once you have a vision of what you want to look like you then need to stick a desired time limit on your fat loss goal. This is another great motivational tool that can push you along each step until you reach your final destination.
Now I want you to look at your timescale for your Fat Loss Goal, how many review days are you going to have? Once you know the answer you have a powerful approach to make certain the fat loss actually happens before the deadline. If fat loss doesn’t happen quick enough for you then you can easily look at what you are doing wrong and prepare to move in the relevant direction before the next review.
Who Are You Doing This For and Why?
Is it for your health & happiness, family/partner or for your career?
The reasons behind your fat loss goals are probably more powerful than the tactics I’ve discussed above. Why you may ask? I have found that people’s reasons for wanting to achieve Fat Loss normally involve feelings, other people, relationships or other meaningful importance to life. This is dynamite for getting motivated, if those reasons won’t budge you to make a start nothing will.

How to Burn Fat and Train Abs in Only 15 Minutes
Fast Workouts For Fat Loss
The thought of doing any kind of exercise turns many people off because of the impression it can have. If you don’t know any different then you would assume it is a long drawn out process only suited for nut cases with nothing else better to do. What if I told you that exercise doesn’t have to be long and boring? Would you be interested if I showed you a way to make exercise challenging but over before you knew it? Better still, what if I told you the way I’m about to show you to exercise is more beneficial than probably 97% of what anybody else is doing in the gym right now. It only takes 15 minutes so even the busiest people can’t make excuses with this one.
This exercise routine is really simple, once you are fully warmed up this is what you do.
Choose two exercises
Decide which areas you want to Lose Weight, Fat & Inches from and choose the correct kind of exercises accordingly.
Tip: choose multi joint exercises when applicable. This will burn more calories and give you a better response.
E.g.
Legs = squats, lunges or leg curls using a ball.
Back = dead lifts, bent over rowing or alternating superman.
Chest = press ups, dumbbell press or presses and chest fly on a ball.
Considerations for the abs only workouts
You may decide to use this routine format for just training the abs. In which case be careful not to opt for the same movement pattern.
Tip: there are three planes of movement, make sure to include 2 different ones when training the abs so you achieve a balanced look.
E.g.
Crunch type exercises = forwards and backwards.
Side bends and other oblique exercises = moving sideways.
Wood chops = rotational movement.
Once you decide which exercises you are going to do to Lose Weight, Fat & Inches work them to their fullest potential for 15 minutes.
Do the first exercise for 30 seconds followed immediately by the second exercise for another 30 seconds then take a rest for 30 seconds. Repeat this 10 times which will give you a 15-minute workout. Beware it looks easy on paper but is very challenging.
Tip: use a digital stopwatch to time yourself. I have found it to be easier to monitor where you are and you don’t need to count how many rounds you have done because you simply stop when the clock reads 15 minutes.

A Professional Footballer Lost a Third of His Body Fat in Just Four Weeks With Fat Loss Every 10 Days
Fat Loss without Dieting
When a professional footballer approached me for help one of the first things he told me was how ultra professional he had always been throughout his career with the way he looked after himself. Alcohol was limited to a glass of wine with a meal now and again and he never spent any time in smoky clubs or bars, he also told me he always went to bed before midnight to make sure he got his eight hours sleep every night. He went on to say he had always accepted that certain people are naturally fitter than others but it had always struck him that despite his healthy lifestyle he never felt as fit as he thought he should have been.
Click ==>The Quickest Way To Lose Fat
Having felt this way for quite a long time he had finally had enough and decided to get his diet checked to find out if he was missing anything out or doing something wrong to explain the way he felt. As well as leading a healthy lifestyle he had always followed what is widely regarded as a very healthy diet. Plenty of pasta, potatoes, salad and vegetables, a little red meat, chicken and the odd helping of fish. On shopping trips to the supermarket he would always go for the low fat versions of everything he saw. He was taking the advice of the health magazines and most of the other sources of media that said fat is bad for you and should be avoided at all costs.
As soon as I started explaining about the myths surrounding nutrition he was surprised and got a lot more than he expected. I introduced him to how to identify the foods that made him feel lethargic, hungry or irritable and helped him to recognise the foods that made him feel the total opposite. If certain foods make you feel terrible and do nothing to quench your appetite then it makes perfect sense to eliminate that food from your diet especially if you want to excel at your sport.
Click ==>The Quickest Way To Lose Fat
One of the keys to success with eating for optimal sports performance is to learn which foods belong to which food group. As soon as you are able to identify different food groups you have a better chance of controlling hunger. This is because different food groups will give you different responses. Once you become familiar with the foods that leave you feeling a certain way you will be able to prepare meals that work for the body and not against it. All this requires is modification with the portion sizes. In other words you may need less carbohydrates and more protein with each meal in order to satisfy your hunger and prevent your energy levels dipping.
The good thing is that it isn’t even dieting; it is all about feeding the body the correct nutrients in the proper ratios so you don’t suffer any negative effects after a meal.
Since my first meeting with the professional footballer he has changed his diet in a big way and adopted the principles above. He has not needed to rely on pasta, bread and potatoes for his energy needs because he felt he didn’t need them. He has never felt fitter and has lost a third of his body fat levels in just four weeks without changing his exercise regime. Click ==>The Quickest Way To Lose Fat
