Brown Fat Helps Weigth Loss

September 5th, 2010

Brown fat is a metabolically active form of fat involved with heat production. It’s involved in triglyceride metabolism, and it is activated by thyroid hormone and appears to respond to vitamin C, zinc, and copper.

While the role of brown fat is not entirely understood, it seems to produce a hormone that promotes rapid burning of the fuels in foods - thermogenesis.

The more brown fat a person has, the better his or her body is able to produce heat and, in turn, burn calories. Brown fat thus becomes useful in weight control and weight loss.

It’d been observed that those people with little brown fat have a “freezer” type metabolism. They don’t burn foods well, and a lot of what they eat turns to ordinary fat. If they don’t do anything to increase their thermogenesis, even a small number of calories - as few as 600 per day - may be too many.

People with a lot of brown fat have a “furnace” type metabolism. They burn body fuels rapidly, and the more they consume, the more they burn, all the while maintaining a stable weight. These people seem able to eat all kinds of foods and remain slim. The more fuel they throw into the system, the more they burn, just like coals on a fire.

You may have noted in the past, that if you go out for a big meal at night and sit down afterward in a coat or sweater, you feel warmer than you normally would. That’s because your body is burning the foods you have eaten and is producing heat.

Those with a freezer type metabolism won’t notice this phenomenon because their bodies not burning the fuels as they should. This can be the reason why some can lose weight on the stereotypical the high protein and low carb diets, while others can’t.

Genetics seems to play a role in how the body handles brown fat.

At autopsy every individual is found to have minute deposits of brown fat around the kidneys and the main artery out of the heart. But there are ways to change the percentage of brown fat in the body. Although I certainly do not advocate caffeine intake, some research suggests that caffeine stimulates brown fat by increasing the metabolic rate.

Caffeine should not be used for weight loss however. It does other things that are not as positive. It can cause heart palpitations (especially in high amounts), and it robs the body of certain vitamins and other nutrients, such as C and B.

Another way to increase brown fat metabolism is to exercise - specifically, to engage in aerobic exercise that uses oxygen. To be effective this exercise must raise the pulse rate in a certain way - see the workout in Maximize Your Metabolism.

Such exercise as brisk walking increases the thermogenic effect of brown fat by about 4 percent, and that’s an encouraging amount. a half-hour of vigorous walking four times a week can be very rewarding from a metabolic standpoint.

Other effective forms of aerobic exercise are running, bicycling, swimming, jumping rope, and rowing.

Non-caffeine supplements such as fatty acids also improve brown fat metabolism.

On the other hand, too much sodium in the diet can deactivate the brown fat and promote water retention with consequent weight gain.

Unstoppable Motivation - Part 2

August 2nd, 2010

Motivation is a very fragile thing. If all it took was a great pep talk and a well-thought out list of hopes and aspirations, the majority of people would already have everything they want. But they don’t!

Why then do you think so many people who set lofty goals eventually fail to reach their objective — even after they write their goals down, detail them out, maybe even hang their list on their wall so they can read it every day? Why do you think that even after doing everything most motivational speakers swear by, so many people still fail?

For the most part, people fail to reach their goals because the human mind doesn’t think in words. And because of that, you can not be motivated by words!

That’s not to say that there aren’t people out there who are so highly charismatic that when they speak, you get temporarily motivated. But the reality is, as great as these people sound, you’re not getting motivated by the words they’re saying — you’re getting motivated by the “pictures” their words create in your mind.

So, if you can’t motivate yourself yet — and I’m talking about unstoppable, electric motivation; the kind that literally sends tingles up and down your spine or creates goose bumps on your arms — then it’s because you haven’t yet tapped into the massive power of your mind.

This is where External motivation comes in. In order to create a powerful mental picture, one that will keep you going in even the hardest times, you need to create an outside stimulus that will consistently trigger your mind to picture your desired goal. And the best way I’ve found to do this is by creating a Goal Body Chart.

This technique is so powerful that if you use it properly, it will change your life immediately.

A Goal Body Chart is an extremely simple concept — yet as you probably already know, it’s the simple things that tend to make the most profound differences in people. If you’ve ever been in a model’s house or a celebrity’s home, or you’ve just seen inside their homes on television — what’s the very first thing you notice?

They all have pictures of themselves — everywhere. Some are even blown up larger than life, some are colorful and some are more dramatic black and whites shots — but the one thing they all have in common is that each of these people displays highly visible pictures of themselves. They do this for one simple reason… because their paycheck requires them to be in top shape all the times. Bottom line… they don’t get paid unless they look great!

Now, I understand the majority of you aren’t models, but if one of your main goals is to live life in the body of your dreams, then you’re going to need to develop unstoppable motivation and will power to get there. This means you’ll need to learn how to finally put an end to procrastination in your life and a good Goal Body Chart will make this an effortless process.

To make your own chart, start by getting a large piece of poster board and hang it in an area of the house where no one else will see it — an area just for you. For example, my Goal Body Chart is hanging in my home office. Some of my clients hang theirs in their closet, some hang it in their basement where the exercise. I don’t care where you put it as long as you can see it at least once, if not 3 times every day, and it’s in a place where others can’t easily access it.

Surf the Internet or flip through magazines to find pictures of body parts you find motivating — pictures of legs, abs, hair styles, arms, chests and butts, find pictures of full bodies and pictures of half bodies. Cut out every picture of every body part you want your body to look like, then paste them on your poster board. You don’t have to do this in any particular order, just paste the pictures on the board. As your Goal Body Chart gets cluttered, or when you find better pictures, simply paste the new ones over the old ones.

You should strive to add at least 3 new pictures to your board every week and then study these pictures at least 3 times each day for several minutes. Really drink in every photo and visualize each picture as if were already part of your body, really begin to see yourself in top shape. Now, begin seeing yourself enjoying life in this new, lean body. By adding this “action” to the equation you have just dramatically increased the power of this amazing tool.

Once you can consistently see, feel and believe yourself to be in top shape, your motivation will literally be unstoppable and you’ll be truly determined to do whatever it takes to reach your goal and maintain your new lean body. You have now taped into the power of external motivation.

Building a Healthy Foundation Before Dieting

July 28th, 2010

Have you ever been on that roller coaster ride we call dieting? You manage to lose a few pounds on the latest diet only to see it come back in no time at all. And no matter how hard you try, no matter how much effort and motivation you put into it, you simply can’t keep the weight off. Well, I’m going to let you in on a little secret — one that will change your life forever.

No diet is ever going to work unless you do one thing first — Clean out all of the old, build up sludge within your body. Sludge that’s been accumulating over the years, sludge that’s slowing down every system in your body, sludge that’s making it almost impossible for your body to release it’s stored bodyfat, sludge that’s causing your to age faster and feel older and less energized than you should.

If you’ve been to any of my live seminars, you know that I’m a fanatic about cleaning out your system first because unless you start your diet with a good cleanse, the whole dieting process will take longer and you’ll hit more plateaus along the way.

A good cleanse can last from a day to two weeks or more and consists of consuming only 2 things during that time: Fresh vegetable juices —juices you make yourself and drink as soon as you make them AND distilled water. All day. These are the only two things you eat or drink. If you absolutely need some substance, you can eat some raw or slightly steamed vegetables.

This kind of a healthy cleanse will clear out all the toxic sludge in your system and flood your body with energy by fortifying every cell in your body with the ‘life force’ or energy from the vegetables you eat.

There are two kinds of foods in this world — live food and dead food. Live foods (like raw vegetables) actually transfer energy into your body, providing you with the nutrition your metabolism needs to keep you looking lean and healthy. Dead foods (like pasta, cakes, canned vegetables or breads) pull energy from your body.
Before you start any cleanse however, you need to make sure you’re going to the bathroom regularly. This is vital. You absolutely must be defecating at least 2 to 3 times each and every day (that’s assuming you’re eating 2 to 3 meals a day).

More than 70% of Americans and Canadians are clinically constipated. That means their colons are storing fecal matter that could be years old. In fact, the normal adult stores more than 5 pounds of fecal matter in their colon at any given time. If you eat 3 meals a day and you only poop once a day (or less), where do you think the rest of this matter goes? The truth is, it compresses down, excreting any liquid and then packs onto the walls of your colon, eventually forming polyps or herniating through your colon wall creating pockets.

You’ll never lose weight efficiently, you’ll never have loads of energy and your metabolism will never become powerful enough to burn off that stubborn fat until you get rid of this built-up fecal matter.

The easiest way to do this is either through a series of colonics, which is never a pleasant experience but quite effective, or by consuming things like warm water with a little concentrated lemon juice and cayenne pepper.

If you do this a few times each day, it’s going to increase the strength of your colon walls, and increase the rate at which you defecate, cleaning your entire digestive system, adding energy to your day and health to your metabolism.

You can also try supplements for regularity if necessary. Do some research, find out which way works best for you, but no matter what, you must increase the regularity of your system. You should be going to the bathroom at least 2 to 3 times daily.

“You cannot expect to improve your metabolism, lose weight permanently or drastically increase your energy level without first cleaning your system.”

Lemon/Cayenne Drink

• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 8 ounces warm water
• A pinch or up to a 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper to stimulate your colon. (As long as you’re not allergic and if you can handle more than just a pinch, do so)

Rapid Results = Exercise…

July 8th, 2010

Women who exercise regularly have a 20% less chance of developing breast cancer, a 30% less chance of suffering from heart disease, and a whopping 50% less chance of developing diabetes. And that in men… 50 percent of all deaths due to chronic disease are caused by a lack of physical exercise? Now, these are some compelling reasons to exercise more regularly.

Truth be told, you must be “active” every day, in some way. But that doesn’t mean that you must “exercise hard” every day - see www.2DayWorkout.com

You must increase the amount of activity you do regularly…you must exercise hard enough to breath heavy and work up a good sweat, but not so much that you feel pain, out of breath or faint. And the best way to do this is through some form of aerobic exercise.

It doesn’t matter what exercise you decide to do as long as you successfully get your heart rate into what I call the proper zone. This means reaching an optimal level of physical exertion that will stimulate your body to burn excess body fat and increase it’s metabolic rate. In order to do this, it’s best to exercise for a minimum of 30 minutes, 3–5 times per week, with your heart rate around 70–80% of your max.

Exercising with your heart rate under your 70% low range is still healthy, but it’s not enough to make a noticeable change in your body fat level. On the other hand, exercising with your heart rate above your 80% high range is potentially unhealthy and burns muscle rather than body fat. So stay above or at 70% and never go above your 80% target heart rate.

There’s a number of ways to monitor your heart rate, but a simple formula to use as a guideline is:

220 – your age x .70 (gives you your low range)
220 – your age x .80 (gives you your high range)

You can also use a heart rate monitor (about $70–150 in a sports store).

And for those of you who are thinking I don’t have any extra time in my day to exercise, this doesn’t mean you should wait until you can fit that 30-minute workout into your schedule 3–5 times per week!

Start now. Start slow. Start with the time you have. Just start!

The key is persistent action. Set your alarm clock 1 hour earlier right now (stop reading and go do it!). Then get up tomorrow morning earlier and work out — you’ll be glad you did. If you can’t do 30 minutes, then do 15… just do it.

If you can’t exercise 3–5 times each week at first, then do it twice. Then, as you can, fit more exercise into your schedule and work your way up to the correct amount.

Becoming fit should be a priority in everyone’s life because your health and the state of your body effects every aspect of living. The way in which you perceive yourself is a great indicator of how the rest of your life is functioning.

Before I was confident in my appearance, I had a small income, a small bank account, no one special in my life, a faulty business, I was regularly sick and the only friends I had were those that enjoyed spending time sitting around and complaining. None of my clothes fit me, I was out of shape and I looked… well… just not attractive. The key to my success — financially, socially, emotionally, physically, mentally, and even spiritually — was to take control of my health and how I looked once and for all.

So put some motivating pictures in your exercise area to keep you motivated – then get moving. If you have troubles getting out of bed early in the morning, then put a few great pictures on your bed-stand and look at them right before you go to sleep, then again as you wake up. The point is, just start now… and do it. You will change your life – forever – and for the better.

The best techniques I’ve ever seen for cutting your workout time in half while doubling the results you can get from your time were all put into The 2 Day Workout book - grab a copy now and begin seeing better results in the mirror…

Best Always,

Q: How to keep up with a diet if you eat out a lot?

A: Order healthier foods - there s no excise…You see them all the time – good looking, lean, healthy people eating in restaurants. So why do you have to be different? When healthy people go to a restaurant they order quality food (they normally start with a big healthy salad minus all the dressing, then they move on to a lean source of protein like a fish dish, or a chicken meal – one that’s not heavily coated with sauces; they avoid the pasta dishes, the desserts, and the alcohol. And most importantly, they choose the right restaurants to eat at…if you don’t see healthy, lean, in-shape people eating at the restaurants that you go to – maybe it’s time to re-examine your choice of restaurants.

Using Nutrients Effectively to Boost Your Metabolism and loss weight fast

May 21st, 2010

Most diets advocate low-fat, low-carb, high-protein foods as the standard weight-loss regime. Truth be told, not only is this type of diet very restricting, but it doesn’t supply your body the optimal nutrition it needs to boost you metabolism. This type of diet can also be confusing and often time consuming, making you count calories or decipher color-coded cards — it makes you work for your food.

A healthy diet is one that makes your food work for you — a diet that gives you the maximum nutritional value in each meal, nutrition that will help boost your metabolism for the long-term. Why would you want to just eat a diet that helps you lose weight when you can create a diet full of foods that not only helps you drop weight, but also have loads of energy, and sets your metabolism up on autopilot so it helps you burn more fat — allowing you to exercise less and get back to living life.

Let me explain. There are two main types of nutrients out there… micro- and macro-nutrients. To put it simply, micro-nutrients are all the vitamins and minerals. These are the nutrients that supply your body with the sustenance it needs to keep your metabolism “healthy”.

Macro-nutrients are nutrients like protein (chicken, fish, lean red meat and egg whites), carbohydrates (rice, potato’s and vegetables), fats (oils, fatty meats and fried foods) and fiber. These nutrients can either boost your metabolism and burn body fat, or force your body to store fat.

Think of the food you eat like a drug for a moment. Each micro- or macro-nutrient you ingest causes a very specific chemical reaction in your body. Some foods cause your body to release chemicals which force it to store more body fat, while others force your metabolism to burn hotter and thus burn more calories and stored fat. It just makes sense that you should strive to eat only those foods proven to make your body healthier, tighter and leaner like those found in the Psychology of Weight Loss and/or Maximize Your Metabolism (see: www.MaximizeYourMetabolism.com for both books).

Creating a diet that’s going to get you these results is as easy as following three basic rules:

1. Eat 5 or 6 meals every day — equally spaced about 2 to 3 hours apart.
When you eat a healthy meal your metabolism automatically kicks in and begins burning that food as fuel for energy. In order for this process to work efficiently however, it shouldn’t be interrupted, except when you sleep. It takes your body about 2 to 3 hours to break down the macronutrients and then assimilate the micronutrients from foods. Your metabolism is high and in fat burning mode during this entire process (assuming you choose the right foods). Once your body digests that food, your metabolism begins to slow down. So, by eating every 2 to 3 hours, you’re forcing your metabolism to remain high, maximizing your body’s ability to burn body fat and stay healthy.

2. Eat lean protein like chicken, fish, lean red meat, egg whites, or protein powder in every meal. Also add a wide variety of raw vegetables in each meal, making your serving size as large as possible—avoid starchy vegetables.

3. Eat complex carbohydrates like potatoes, rice, grits, or rice cakes in your first few meals. These servings should be smaller, like a cup of rice or 1 regular size potato for example.

It’s important when following these rules to also remember your first meal should always be your largest and should be eaten within 30 minutes of waking. When you sleep, your metabolism is at it’s absolute lowest, so you need give it a boost as soon as you can to trigger the fat burning process to begin as early in the day as possible.

The two best ways to jump-start your metabolism after waking up in the morning are by eating a breakfast that contains protein, vegetables and some complex carbohydrates, or by exercising.

If you skip this vital step and don’t begin eating anything substantial until lunchtime, you’re missing out on all those golden hours of fat burning you could be automatically taking advantage of simply by eating a healthy breakfast.

Your last meal of the day should be the smallest and should consist of only lean protein and raw vegetables.

Best Always,
Christopher

Mild But Effective Exercise

May 1st, 2010

Have you ever heard the saying, “ if you rest…you rust”?

It’s true!

Unless you’re active in some “structured” way everyday, your body will begin to seize up.

Every function in the human body relies upon your moving — everything, everyday. Without movement there’s no life. You must get your metabolism moving so the rest of your body can function efficiently and effectively.

One type of exercise you can do to stimulate your metabolism is aerobic exercise. These are exercises that promote cardiovascular health. Aerobic exercise consists of any exercise performed non-stop for a length of time long enough to force your muscles to use more oxygen to produce energy. This type of exercise makes your body burn more body fat and keeps your metabolism higher than normal not only during exercise but also for up to 2 hours after.

There are many types of aerobic exercise. You can walk outside, walk on a treadmill, jog, ride a bike, go to a gym, walk up and down a flight of stairs or just practice getting up and down from a chair if you’re really out of shape. Basically, doing any motion that gets your heart rate into the right zone for an extended period of time is considered aerobic.

To make exercising fun, try choosing activities that are convenient and enjoyable. Keep a list of fun aerobic things you can do — keep adding to that list. Set a goal of doing at least 1 different activity each week to help ‘spice up’ your training. Boredom is the number one reason people stop their exercise program.

Another reason many people quit is because they try to do more than they’re physically capable of doing, eventually giving up. Talk with your physician first to see what exercise styles are right for you, then follow your physician’s recommendations and make sure you pick exercises or activities that are within your physical limits.

For beginners or those with health issues or who are more than 50 pounds over weight, you might start with mild stationary bike riding, or light treadmill walking or simply sitting in a sturdy chair, then gently standing up, then sitting back down. If you do this over and over again, you’ll find your heart rate goes up quite fast.

When you get tired, take a break by sitting in the chair.

For intermediate people, or those who have exercised regularly in the past but recently let themselves get a bit out of shape, try mild to mildly intense stationary biking or treadmill work. You can even take an aerobic class or follow a video program. Go out dancing — this is always a fun way to get your metabolism moving.

People in the advanced category or those who have been exercising regularly without fail for at least 8 months, can try interval training. For example, for interval training using a stationary bike, start by riding slowly with a low intensity for 1 minute, then immediately increase both your speed and intensity for the next minute. Then, ride slowly at the low intensity for another minute and repeat this process 10–15 times.

Interval training burns more calories in less time than nearly any other aerobic exercise.

Advanced folks can also try 100 rep squats. Make no mistake, this is an advanced exercise and should not be performed unless you fit into this category.

If you are up to it, begin by holding a light dumbbell in each hand, hanging them down at your sides. Gently and slowly squat down with your back straight and head upright until your thighs are parallel to the floor (like sitting in an imaginary chair), then push back up to the standing position without locking your legs.

Repeat this for 100 reps. This is not a fun exercise, but rather one that will completely sculpt and define your lower body — FAST, while burning a ton of calories. If you’ve never tried this exercise, don’t do it without a training partner.

Remember, it doesn’t matter what level you’re at or what exercise or activity you choose, just keep variety in your exercise choices, be persistent and have fun!

The importance of raising your body’s pH level for weight loss

April 28th, 2010

Over the years I’ve found that eating an alkaline diet is the fastest way to burn stubborn body fat, increase your natural energy levels and to look and feel younger.

In fact, it’s now recognized that the primary cause of a sluggish metabolism is living an acid lifestyle. I know that’s a pretty bold statement but once you switch from doing things that cause acid to build up in your body and start doing things to create an alkaline environment, your body will immediately begin to look tighter and younger and you’ll instantly have more energy.

So, what causes acid build up in your body? A poor diet is the number one cause. Specifically, these foods cause acid build-up.

1. Sugars and sugar-containing foods such as pastries and raised baked goods, including most breads, rolls and cakes.
2. Alcoholic beverages: all alcoholic beverages cause acidity in the body.
3. Condiments and sauces: things like ketchup, mayonnaise and salad dressing.
4. Processed or smoked meats: all processed and smoked meats cause acidic build-up.
5. Leftovers: If not promptly and properly refrigerated, these foods trigger acid build-up.
6. Fruit juices and most fruits: the high sugar content of these foods causes instant acid build-up.
7. Caffeinated beverages like coffee and tea.
8. All yeast products and vitamins or minerals that are not yeast free.
9. Soft drinks (depending on where you live, you may call soft drinks soda or pop). There’s absolutely nothing good in soft drinks. Every ingredient in them causes acidic build up in your body.
10. Almost all diet foods, white flour products and white sugar products.
11. Fast foods, artificial sweeteners, all preservatives, cooked oils, fat-free, sugar-free, low-carb, pre-packaged foods and hydrogenated oils.

This might sound like everything you eat. Do you know anybody who eats everything on this list?

Well, now that you know what causes acid build-up,, let’s look at what constitutes an alkaline diet. This is the diet that has the ability to boost your metabolism within a matter of days. It can help you look younger, leaner and sexier and it’s can keep every cell in your body healthy, vibrant and pulsating with energy.

In order for your diet to alkalinize your body, it has to be rich in nutrient-dense foods, such as clean water and a lean, healthy protein source, free of most toxins. I say “most toxins” because in today’s world, it’s very difficult to avoid all toxins because toxins are found in almost everything around us.

Foods that promote a strong, healthy looking, energy-rich, alkaline body are fresh, raw, preferably organic vegetables. Eating fresh, raw vegetables is the single most important step you can take today in order to alkalinize your system. It will allow your body to actually use the live enzymes, the life inside these vegetables and the energy from them, to energize and build health within you so you are able to increase your energy, strengthen your metabolism and reduce the signs of aging from the inside out. Eat raw vegetables all day long. Have a variety of them in each meal. Juice them at least once, preferably twice a day if you can. If you can’t juice them or you don’t like eating vegetables on a regular basis, then buy a ‘greens’ drink and drink it at least once a day.

It really is that simple. An alkaline diet consists of loads of fresh, raw vegetables, lean sources of protein in each meal like fish, chicken, turkey, or egg whites and lots of fresh water. If you don’t want to get that strict yet, then at least begin removing all the foods from the acidic list, especially those loaded with preservatives and other chemicals, and then slowly add the really nutrient-dense foods like organic vegetables, lean sources of protein and fresh water. If you take just this one step toward rebuilding your health, you will notice a huge difference in how you look, how you feel and the amount of available energy you have throughout the day.

If you don’t yet have a copy of The Psychology of Wei–ght Loss, then get yourself a copy, because it’s truly the most comprehensive, easy to understand, step-by-step program to become more alkaline, healthier, more energized and leaner. Learn more now at: www.MaximizeYourMetabolism.com

It’s OK … Take a Day Off and You’ll Lose Weight Faster…

April 2nd, 2010

Dieting doesn’t have to be torturous. Committing yourself to a weight-loss program doesn’t automatically constitute a life sentence.

In fact, most diets fail because people either become bored or they simply can’t commit themselves day in and day out to a strict and monotonous regime. But what if I told you that… not only is it OK to take a day off from your program, but that it’s absolutely mandatory to your success?

Over 82 percent of people who start a diet or exercise program get burned out or stop before they reach their goal because they never learn the value of taking Mandatory Days Off. I have a quote etched into the walls of one of the classrooms in the research center that says:

“Woe and behold the farmer who saw that if he plowed his fields once per season, his crops grew tall and strong. Thought this farmer, if once per season brought me good crop to sell at market, then plowing twice per season would bring me twice the crop to profit from. So twice he plowed and all was lost, for more work was not needed. Time to grow was what the crop really sought.”

I love this quote because it so clearly illustrates the mindset of someone who’s desperate to reach a goal — so desperate in fact, that they skip the number one ingredient of all success in life — Time Off.

Time off from your diet is just as essential as taking a day off work.

You don’t work seven days a week, every week, every month of the year. You would literally burn out. The same holds true for dieting. It’s an essential part of developing the body of your dreams! Those who skip this step usually get slower results, stop before reaching their goal or see the whole process as being too difficult.

For over 18 years I’ve worked with people in many different professions and there’s one thing that remains common among each of them; they all want results as fast as possible and they all want those results to last forever.

Hey…that’s not too much to ask!

In fact, that’s why the research center was developed in the first place, and why we spend so much time and money sifting through the top programs to find out what works best every time for everyone. And I’ll tell you right now — nothing works if you don’t give your body time off.

Think about a bodybuilder. When a bodybuilder lifts weights, their muscles don’t grow while lifting, they grow only while they rest.

When an Olympic track star tries to increase their speed they run but their speed doesn’t increase while running. The neurons associated with developing greater speed become fixed only when they rest and recuperate. They run faster during the next day’s session.

In fact, most athletes know they need 2 or even 3 days rest to assure their body’s working at optimum levels before an event. I know there’s a lot more to Olympic training and bodybuilding, but the fact still remains, the actual results occur not during the exertion phase but during the recuperation phase.

The same applies to living a healthy lifestyle. To use your Mandatory Days Off to your benefit it’s essential to take 1 meal off every week and take 1 full day off every month (some may even do better taking 1 day off every 2 weeks).

But what constitutes a Day Off — well, eating reasonably, but not sticking 100% to your diet.

This isn’t a day to gorge yourself or stuff yourself with fatty, sugary, toxic foods! A sample meal off might consist of: a slice or two of pizza, several pieces of fruit or a bit of whatever you’ve been craving (within reason), like cheese, chocolate, a hamburger, a bowl of cereal. Then get right back to your diet the next day.

The point is, in order for your body to work at optimal capacity, it needs time to rest. Simply taking a day off will accelerate you towards your goal body and make the process far easier!

See you after I take a few days off ;-)

The Power of Cycling your Caloric Intake for Faster Weight Loss & Energy Enhancement

March 2nd, 2010

The majority of people who want to transform their body, or their health, or their energy level – fail – because the information they’re given is faulty. In fact, this epidemic of ‘mis-information’ is causing our nation to become ‘mis-formed’ – but there is a solution and it’s not “to work harder”, in fact by implementing a few simple techniques you can work less and get far more results.

Today I’d like to discuss a technique that my team developed more than 10 years ago that has made a drastic difference in our clients lives – helping them to transform their bodies from out of shape, to tight, lean and energized in less time and with far less effort.

Now a few authors or so-called guru’s have tried to copy this process but they usually end up failing because they try to put a spin on the basic technique, which in the end messes up the results their readers get.

If used properly though, this technique is a sure-fire way to keep your metabolism running as high and efficiently as possible…and it’s called Cycling Your Calories.

So, how does this truly amazing technique work? If you are used to eating 2000 calories per day for example, then your metabolism is used to burning up that amount of energy every day. If however, you suddenly drop 500-1000 calories from your diet (preferably from complex carbohydrates) our research clearly shows that your body will continue to burn about 2000 calories per day for approximately 24-48 hours.

So, if your body is still burning 2000 or so calories, but you’re only feeding it 1500 calories, it must find those calories somewhere else.

And if you’re following a healthy diet, one that eliminates acid building-foods and concentrates on fresh vegetables, lean protein sources and fresh water, along with a healthy exercise regimen (see http://www.EnergyFactor.tv), then your body will find those additional calories in your stored body fat — particularly in those stubborn fat cells you previously thought you could never lose.

So, what does this mean? It means that by cycling your calories, you’re actually forcing your body to burn all that extra body fat as energy for the day. This one technique alone has changed the lives of more of my clients than any other, and it has the ability to change your life as well if you use it properly.

There are some restrictions though. You have to be careful when using this technique because you can’t maintain this low calorie intake for too long. In fact, I don’t ever suggest that my clients maintain it for longer than 2-3 days at a time. So, after a few days of this lower calorie intake, you need to raise your calories up to your normal intake again (2000 calories in this example). The great part about this aspect of the program however, is that your metabolism will keep increasing as long as you keep cycling your calories. And it will keep increasing until it reaches its peak fat burning level!

To give you a better idea of what I’m talking about, use this example of what your week might look like:

Saturday and Sunday = regular caloric intake
Monday and Tuesday = drop 500–1000 calories from your diet (dropping mostly complex carbs, while maintaining your lean protein and your raw vegetable intake).
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday = regular caloric intake

If done properly, this is a technique you can use right now to really boost your metabolism.

Even if you think you’ve damaged your metabolic system in the past or you have a slow or sluggish metabolism, this technique will quickly help you to increase the effectiveness of your metabolic system now so you can effectively lose those unwanted pounds and then maintain that lean, tight body you have always wanted.

If you don’t want to do any of these calculations and you just want a full program which uses this technique perfectly, then let me do it all for you at: http://www.TheTotalBodyTransformation.com

What can I eat that will increase my energy…

March 1st, 2010

Get the full first season of The Energy Factor TV show at: http://www.EnergyFactor.tv

Q: What can I eat that will increase my energy - it seems that I am TIRED everyday around 6:30 and feel like I could just go to bed and sleep for 12 hours! I don’t go to bed, but because I am TOO TIRED I don’t get any of the house chores or errands done that I need to do!! HELP…

A: More meals (small meals) spaced throughout the day is the key to having sustained energy from the time you wake up till the time you’re ready for bed…your first meal increases your metabolism and your energy level - but that begins to diminish after 2-3 hours so you really need a series of healthy meals spaced throughout the day…healthy meals consist of loads of fresh raw vegetables and a lean source of protein like fish, chicken, turkey, egg whites, lean red meat, or even a protein shake if you’re on the go.

The Keys to Hydration

March 1st, 2010

Most people take water for granted…

I’m sure you’ve been told hundreds of times that you need to drink lots of water — and some of you may think you already do. But, for the most part, I think people don’t really understand how important water really is to your entire system and any weight loss program you undertake, be it weight loss, cleansing, tightening and toning or maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

Your body is made up of 70 percent water, so it just makes sense when your water stores become depleted, your body can’t function efficiently. Water is the primary transportation system for all the nutrients and vital elements found in your body. For your metabolism to function at its highest level, you need your blood to be thin and strong so it can flow more freely and rapidly throughout your body. You also need your lymphatic system to be clean and free of all the toxins you absorb just be breathing today’s air. And finally, you need all the other systems in your brain, your metabolic system, and your nervous systems running smoothly and at optimal capacity … only water can do all this.

The rule about water for metabolic enhancement is simple — I have a huge plaque posted right above the exit door of my research center that spells this rule out so it’s the last thing our clients see before they leave us each day:

“Drink one cup of water for every 14 to 20 pounds of body weight you now carry around”.

Specifically, for weight loss and looking and feeling younger, healthier, firmer and more lean, you really need to consume 8 ounces of plain, fresh water for every 14 to 20 pounds of body weight you now carry. If you’re very active or under a lot of stress or you eat poorly or you’re exposed to toxins throughout the day, then you’re going to want to drink closer to 8 ounces for every 14 pounds of body weight.

But if you live a really healthy lifestyle, drinking vegetable juices on a regular basis, eating fresh, raw vegetables 2 or 3 times daily and you avoid pesticides and preservatives as much as you can, then you can drink just 8 ounces for every 20 pounds of body weight.

The easiest way we’ve found with our clients at the research center to get water in, is simply to have a jug by you at all times — a gallon jug or even a half-gallon water jug is perfect. Keep it at your desk during the day. Keep it next to your bed at night so that when you wake up in the morning you immediately begin drinking from it. If you sip on water all day long, you’d be surprised by how much water you get in by the end of the day.

Water is your body’s number one ally to promote longevity, fat loss, and metabolic health. Without consuming ample amounts of fresh, plain water, you can never look and feel your best, let alone look and feel lean and healthy. So it’s vital you begin drinking clean, fresh water today. Start as soon as you wake up in the morning because after hours of sleeping, your body becomes dehydrated and it needs immediate relief. — did you know that by the time you first feel thirsty, your body is already dehydrated?

If you just take this one step toward healing your body, you’ll find you have far more energy during the day and you may even feel more motivated to learn about other ways you can transform your body into that leaner, tighter and younger looking you.

Until next time…

Can you reduce fat specifically from around your stomach ???

January 12th, 2010

Q: Do those supplements that say that they can reduce fat specifically from around your stomach actually work?

A: Absolutely not - in fact the FTC has gone after the companies making those claims with a vengeance and you’ve seen all but 1 company stop making those claims - and that company is losing the battle as we speak - those claims are false.

Living The Dream

January 1st, 2010

If you remember, a few days ago I was basking in the
afterglow of our Christmas holiday, and thanking the
heavens for the opportunity to live my dream–helping
others.

But it hasn’t always been this way. In fact, there’s been
times when I didn’t know which way to turn. And I
needed some guidance.

That’s an important lesson, and one I paid a lot to learn
but let me give you some background first…

I’ve been a health and fitness buff for as long as I can
remember. Since I was a kid, I wanted to be slim,
trim, and muscular.

I didn’t want to be someone who blends into the scenery.

I wanted to have magnetism and charisma… and living
healthy was my ticket – because living healthy gave me
the physical and mental energy to excel!

So I began developing my own method of shedding pounds,
building muscle, and staying fit. And once I had it perfected,
I opened a chain of health clubs so I could teach it to others.

It wasn’t long before word of my breakthrough methods
started spreading like wildfire, and my phone was
ringing off the hook with people seeking me out for
personal training and coaching.

But as I watched dozens of people experience amazing
transformations using these training and diet techniques,
I knew I could do more. Much more.

I didn’t just want to reach a few hundred folks in my
immediate area…I wanted to reach a few hundred
THOUSAND–maybe even a MILLION.

Because I knew my techniques worked wonders to help
overweight people shed pounds fast and keep them off,
and I wanted to get them in front of as many as
possible.

But the problem was, I didn’t have a clue where to
start.

Should I open more clubs? (but that would mean money
which I didn’t have at the time)

Start more business ventures? (but that would mean
having more contacts – which again, I didn’t have many
of at the time)

How do I spread the word?

The possibilities nagged me daily and kept me up at night.

I was a mess!

Ever feel like that?

You know you’re destined for something bigger…something
greater…something that will establish a legacy for you and
your family for years to come…

…BUT!

But you don’t know how to find it. It’s like looking for a
single grain of sand on a beach that’s miles long—it feels
like an impossible task!

Or is it?

Back to the story…I was still struggling to find a solution to
my dilemma, so I attended a seminar where a friend and
mentor was speaking.

And he gave me one single piece of advice that I’ll never
forget…one sentence that instantly changed my life forever.

He said, “Everyone in this room has a book inside your head,
and it’s time to bring that book to life”.

BINGO!

It was like the heavens opened up and light shined down
upon my face, with angels singing and the whole bit. I could
write a book about my system!

It was so simple, and it had been right there in front of my
face the whole time. I just couldn’t see it until a trusted
advisor pointed it out to me.

And that’s what many of us need–a person we can trust
who can look at our problems, our struggles, and our
issues objectively and give us candid advice.

Do you have someone like that in your life? Whether
it’s personal or professional, a mentor can be the difference
between struggles and success.

So find yourself one today. Look for a mentor who can give
you the straight, no-holds barred guidance you need to
advance towards your goals.

It’ll make a HUGE difference–I promise!

This is going to be your year…

YOUR Year!

Make that a promise to yourself.

Promise yourself that you’ll do something in the
next few months that will create greatness in your
life – something that will make you and your family
proud!

Then let me know what your goal for this year is.

Post your goal (or your list of goals) – in all their
glorious detail. Once you take that action – once you
write it for the world to see – you’ll be farther ahead
than you’ve ever been – farther ahead than 96% of
the rest of the world!

Here’s to a memorable life,
Chris

P.S. When you look for a mentor, look for someone who
has a lot of experience in the area you need mentoring
in.

Don’t just got to a friend or relative–find someone who
has the moxy and the know-how to cut through the
clutter and get to the REAL issues…and how to solve
them.

You may not like what you hear. But I can assure you
that the information they provide will be extremely helpful
in getting you to where you want to be.

Easy Tips for Social Events and Travel

May 7th, 2009

It’s one thing to stick with your diet regimen when you’re at home, in control of the contents of your refrigerator and your portion sizes. But what about going out to dinner with friends? Worse, how do you stay on track when your dream vacation has you seated by the dessert cart at every meal?

Eating right when you’re out of your comfort zone can actually be easier than when you are at home, so long as you think smart and plan ahead. Focus on these simple tips to help you enjoy your dinners out on the town without compromising your weight loss goals.

Incorporate meals out like any others. Don’t skip meals beforehand. Plan. Don’t be afraid to call ahead and find out what the specials are going to be and figure out a couple of choices. If that’s not an option, ask someone with whom you’re comfortable sharing your dietary concerns to help you. Tell him or her what foods you can eat (or what you cannot eat) and ask the person to fill a plate for you. Or second, walk up to the buffet table(s) beforehand with no plate. Just take a casual stroll around and see which foods are being served. Then decide if you would like to ask someone else to place your selections on a plate for you or if you would prefer to get them yourself.

Eat slowly. Not only will this help with your digestion, it slows your eating down so that you notice sooner when you are full. Set your eating utensils down while you chew. Have a sip of water between bites.

Have fun along the way

Eating out is a way of building relationships, to enjoy the company of others. Unfortunately, for those of us looking to cut back on what and how much we eat, this can make previously enjoyable dinner dates a dreaded and avoided task. It doesn’t have to be this way. Opt for a restaurant with salads and low-fat menu choices instead of a place with all deep-fried batter-dipped menu items and heavy desserts.

Another option is to choose an old favourite and split it with a partner. This way, you won’t feel deprived and your portion size will automatically be limited. Not only will your waistlines be smaller, but so will your bills!

Avoid temptation

There is no law that says you must have a basket of bread, butter and oil before a meal out. If it is on your table when you are seated, request that it be brought back to the kitchen.

Set yourself up for success when you order by requesting they leave off the oils and sauces. Request that your meat and vegetables be steamed, not fried. Order a salad (with light or no dressing, on the side) or side of veggies instead of fries or mashed potatoes.

It’s all in the portions

Restaurant portions are significantly larger than actual portion sizes; a half-size will more than adequately replace your normal meal size. Most restaurants offer half-sizes (at smaller prices). If these are not listed on the menu, just ask, and your request will more than likely be accommodated. Alternately, you can request your doggie bag in advance. If they don’t offer to package half your meal for you, decide for yourself (before you begin eating) what an appropriate portion size is and wrap up the remainder.

There’s no rule that you must order your meal from the entrée list. Peruse the appetizer menu for attractive (and smaller) options. You can also create a delicious and unique meal by combining various side dishes.

Drink plenty of water before you leave for the restaurant, and while you wait for the food to arrive. This will help fill you up and prevent hunger-inspired indulgences.

Request your salad (and/or soup, if it’s not creamy) be brought out first, and dig in. By the time your food arrives, you should be able to more rationally determine what portion sizes are appropriate, and if anything needs to be avoided.

Do not order dessert until you are completely finished with your meal. You might be too full to eat dessert and remember, even if everyone is splurging on the dessert menu, you don’t have to join in just to be part of the “gang.” Enjoy a cup of coffee or tea to end your meal. Or ask someone to split a dessert with you if there is something you really want.

Distract yourself

Vacations should be a time to indulge oneself and have fun. Though it does lead to eating out more often, it also removes many of the day’s temptations. For example, you won’t be wandering over to the kitchen when you’re bored, or overindulging at the grocery store and then feeling “obligated” to eat what you’ve bought.

Spend time in the pool, on the sand, and at the shops, not at the restaurants. Most vacation hot spots are ideal for eating on the go; you can pick up a small meal from a roadside vendor and eat it while walking the boardwalk and enjoying the sights and sounds.

Don’t make food about suffering. If the smell of saltwater taffy engulfs you, treat yourself—to one. Having a small amount will indulge your craving without compromising your diet.

Try making a rule like, “If I eat, I need to enjoy a fun activity, too: a walk, bike ride, swim, tennis, putt-putt, etc.” Then coordinate daily “pairings” or events with meal planning. Life, including vacations, does not have to be all about food. Nor does it have to focus on food.

Don’t stress out

With the right approach, eating out can be a pleasurable experience. Remember, a successful diet is a lifelong lifestyle modification. You need to be able to incorporate healthful eating out activities into your routine.

Vacations and meals out are intended to be pleasurable. If you do go a little overboard, it’s important not to beat yourself up over it. Forgive yourself and get on with life. Simply use that experience to learn where you can improve the next time you are in that situation and then add some extra activities to your schedule. Swim some laps. Walk or jog. Leave your wallet in the trunk and go to a mall for a shop-walk. Take a tour. Visit a museum. Enjoy a park and feed the ducks. Just get out, focus on something else and enjoy life.

Wow, I’m Speechless…

January 9th, 2008

If you know me at all, then you know how hard that
subject line was to type…

Because I’m a talker. I love to talk. One of my
favorite parts of being a leading health and fitness
authority is speaking on camera or in front of large
audiences.

But after I read this letter, I was literally speechless.
And I think you will be too.

This is from Megan, who was on a road to self
destruction until she found something that turned it
all around.

I’ll let her tell you herself…

————————

“I am 24, female and I live in Australia. Approx 6
months ago I was a totally different person to the
person I am today. I was overweight, depressed and on 3
different antidepressants, I quit my job and was
unemployed, smoking pot and cigarettes. I ate junk food
all day every day. My usual day would consist of waking
up laying in bed till about 9am, eating toast with
butter and cheese having coke with my breakfast, then I
would graze on junk food all day and night while I laid
on the lounge.

A lot of this behavior had to do with my depression. I
came to a point where I had all these clothes but could
only fit into 2 pairs of my pants and a few tops, but
mainly wore big baggy t-shirts. I was so desperate to
pull myself out of this, I knew deep down this wasn’t
me, the medication made me even more lethargic as well,
and also made me retain a lot of fluid so I looked
extremely bloated all the time.

I went searching on the net one day just for something
to pull me out of this black hole. I started researching
depression and a lot of information came up on how
exercise helps with depression, my initial thought was
“yeah right most people who are depressed barely
have the motivation to shower and dress themselves
for the day” How was I going to start exercising?

I started surfing the web on how to motivate yourself
etc etc there was sooo much information out there. Then
I came across Chris’s website - and bought his audio
and book. I just started reading and reading, and I
don’t know exactly what it was but I just started off
by cutting the junk food out, I did this for a bit and
I started seeing some results, so I then thought if I
exercised as well I would lose even more, it just seems
as soon as I started the ball rolling along with the
help of Chris’s program everything just started to
change.

I started exercising, eating right, and to date I am
now 30lbs lighter, lost 2 dress sizes, lost over 6%
body fat, off all my antidepressants, I have a full
time job as an Administration Manager, I have given up
smoking drugs, and cut down from smoking two to three
packs of cigarettes a week to one pack a month, so
nearly given up on them to.

All my family, and my partner cannot believe the
change, and if you think it is to good to be true, I
can have testimonials from my psychiatrist, family,
friends and work colleagues.

My testimonial may make it all seem so easy but as
everyone has, I had my tough moments, and times when I
thought I couldn’t make it or just wanted to give up, I
have had them many times over the last 6 month, but I
guess the important thing is I didn’t give up and Chris
helped me realize that this isn’t just about losing the
weight as fast as you can, it is about a lifestyle
change, so whether or not I lost the weight I believe
this is a much healthier way to live and I wouldn’t
change back to how I was for the world.”

Thanks Chris :)
Megan …

“My book idea is stupid, Chris…”

January 7th, 2008

“My book idea is stupid, Chris…”

Have you ever had this idea cross your mind? Don’t feel
bad–it’s very common when you think about writing your
own book.

But I recently had an Automatic Best Seller student who
took his “stupid” idea and ran with it.

His name is Dr. Jeff Betman, and he’s quite the
character. In fact, he had me cracking up the whole
time I was talking with him.

Jeff had an idea for a book about stupid stuff that
happens every day at work, which is something we can
ALL relate to…

Here’s what he had to say…

—————

“One day my friend Keith and I were having dinner and
talking about stupid stuff that people do. Then BAM! It
hit us–why not write a book about stupid stuff?

We moved fast–got a domain, found a web designer, the
whole works. And then…nothing. Without the marketing
knowledge to really push our sales, our site just sort
of melted into the background. We were frustrated and
stuck.

Then I heard about Chris’ Automatic Best Seller
program. Every small detail of the system was taught
and modeled for us. Chris taught me how to do tasks the
easiest and most efficient way - and when, where, and how
to outsource all the stuff I didn’t want to do.

Chris made everything seem so easy and doable. I now
know how to make money while I write, publish, market,
and sell my book. This system is repeatable and I plan
on using it over and over. I didn’t just learn some
vague system or a system with missing pieces. I
learned the entire “book empire” system in detail.

It was amazing!

My thinking and mindset totally changed during program.
I went from being a poor, struggling author to Donald
Trump running my book empire. Now, I’m an entrepreneur
looking at and managing the big picture with a proven
method for doing so.

Chris’ program helped make my book “Stupid Stuff at Work”
possible again. Before getting the program, I had a great
concept and a website that was nice to look at, but was
a lousy marketing site.

After Chris’ program, I had a far better concept, and a
great marketing site.

I’ve learned every element that is critical to selling
my book. Chris’ enthusiasm and excitement rubbed off on
me. My time is valuable, but every minute of class was
worth it. I couldn’t sleep after listening to the audios
because I was so excited and had so many new ideas in my
head. Nobody has a better book-writing model than Chris.”

——————-

Jeff’s story is only one of many I’ve received from people
who have taken advantage of the Automatic Best
Seller program.

And these are not business gurus or marketing geniuses
by any means. They’re just like you.

They have the same dreams, same hopes, and same
aspirations to create something bigger than
themselves…to break away from their J-O-B…and to
generate wealth without working 80 hours a week for
someone else to get it. .

Jeff is going after his dream, and achieving great
success along the way.

Why aren’t you?

Although Jeff’s idea was “stupid”, it still struck a
chord with his audience.

And that’s the key–you don’t need a blockbuster idea
for your book. You just need to look inside and find
that one thing you’re passionate about, then put it
into book form and get it in front of your audience
using a proven system.

It’s a lot easier than you think…and much more
profitable than you could ever imagine. And the
Automatic Best Seller is your roadmap to getting there.

Why not get started today?

See you on the bestseller list…
Chris

P.S. Jeff recorded a hilarious audio for me that tells
his story in more detail. Take a listen and see for
yourself how the Automatic Best Seller has changed
Jeff’s life.
