Weight Loss The No BS Truth About How To Take The Weight Off and Keep it Off
No hype. No outrageous claims. No endorsement of the latest fad. No "miracle" program where you sit around, do nothing, and turn into a fitness model or bodybuilder. Basically, no BS. You'll learn what it takes for great fat loss, both how to take it off and how to keep it off. Make no mistake, the solution is not in a pill, bottle, shake, or cabbage (don't get me started). Rapid weight loss can be yours, if you apply the fundamental rules of losing fat. Forget the fads, false claims, and screaming companies wanting you to buy every pill under the sun. You can dramatically transform your body, lose weight and be the person you want to be, but if you think it's not going to take any work at all, this isn't the site for you. As I said, no BS. Go blow all your money on some other guru's over- hyped promises that don't deliver. Then, a few years from now and a lot of fat pounds heavier, come see me and I'll help you with a proven plan for proper weight loss. Let me tell you right up front, if you want fantastic weight loss (really, fat loss), then you must train with weights. No ifs, ands or buts about it. Weight training is the only way to permanently reshape your body. Who can benefit from weight training? Absolutely everyone! That is no exaggeration. More and more people are realizing that in order to permanently reshape your body you need to train with weights. This is just as important for weight loss as it is for adding muscle. If weight loss is your goal, resistance training is the key ingredient to losing the fat and keeping the weight loss forever. AGAIN, weight training is the key to your weight loss. You'll reap great health benefits as well, increasing your life span as well as increasing the quality of your life. First of all, you will burn calories during the actual workout, much like you would while doing aerobics. Second, unlike low intensity, long duration aerobics, weight training revs up your metabolism so that you are burning more calories for up to 39 hours after your workout! You burn calories even at rest! Yes, weight loss while you rest - but only if you put in the work first. Okay, so that's two great fat burning reasons to lift weights. Here's another. Probably the key one to melting away body fat and keeping it off. For every pound of muscle you add to your body, your metabolism cranks up and you burn an additional 30 to 50 calories a day. Again, more calories burned when you aren't doing a thing. What does that mean? Well, let's say your body burns 2,000 calories a day before you started your weight training routine (your base metabolic rate). This is the amount of calories required to maintain your current body weight. Let's fast forward. You've been weight lifting now for about 6 months, you've added a good solid 10 pounds of muscle. You look better, you feel better, you have more energy, your weight loss goals are on track. As for you women out there worried about turning into Arnold - it's not going to happen. Heck, 99% of the guys can't turn into Arnold. Ten pounds of muscle would do wonders for most women, turning you into the lean, toned sexy woman you want and deserve to be. In addition to all of that, your body now burns about 2,300 to 2,500 calories a day, instead of the 2,000 mentioned previously! Put another way, you can continue to eat 2,000 calories a day and you'll lose about 1/2 to 1 pound of fat per week without doing anything else. Keep in mind that 3,500 calories equals one pound of body weight. Now, if you add cardio exercise to the equation and burn an additional 500 calories per day your body is now burning somewhere between 2,800-3,000 calories per day. Subtract that number from the 2,000 calories per day it takes your body to maintain your current weight and you have created a caloric deficit of 800-1,000 calories per day. Over a seven day period this equates to approximately 1 1/2- 2 pounds of fat loss per week. And these figures have not factored in the additional calories (30-50 calories per pound of muscle mass) you will be burning each day due to the new muscle mass you add to your body! Or, you can start eating more each day and you won't put on fat! This does amazing things for your weight loss prospects, long term. Training with weights is the key to dramatically changing your body. It is also the only way to make sure that you don't become a statistic. In other words, weight training will help make sure that you don't become one of the 95% plus people that loses weight only to gain it back and more. Thanks again and I look forward to helping your build your best body.
