How To Lose Body Fat

Suggestions to help you lose weight, kill all your body fat, and leave you with a toned body.

Like all apples, you tend to store fat in your mid-section and upper body, so you're probably carrying extra weight around your belly and chest. Anyone can be an apple, but this shape is more common among men, and studies actually show that people who store fat in the upper body are more prone to cardiac disease. This should provide you with even more incentive to lose weight!

That's where I come in! I have exercises that will target your specific fat storage areas. My personalized program will help you alter your apple shape. But you got to get a grip — you can only win against genetics up to a certain point. Once you understand this, you can let go of unreachable goals and replace them with real ones.

I'll create your personalized exercise program based on the days you prefer to work out, the goals you set for yourself, and the exercises you enjoy. After all, if you enjoy your workout, it's easier to stick to.

Have fun aerobic dancing.

Depending on intensity, you could burn 500 calories an hour.

Cycle — indoors or out.

At 13 mph, you could burn 600 calories an hour.

Power walk.

You can do it anywhere, and at 4 mph, you’ll be burning at least 250 calories an hour.

Run indoors or out.

All you need are good running shoes. And at 5 mph, you’ll burn over 400 calories an hour.

Get on the stair stepper.

You’ll burn calories and tone your hamstrings, glutes, and calves at the same time.

Play your favorite sports.

It’s a whole lot more fun than sweating it out by yourself. And you will often be toning your whole body while burning calories.

Ready to start my diet and start losing weight?

You're a Balanced Oxidizer

Because you crave fruit and bread as well as salty foods, cheeses, and meats, you may be a balanced oxidizer. This is the fancy term for your metabolic rate. It simply means that you need equal proportions of protein, carbs, and fat to process the nutrients in your food optimally, and to produce and use the resulting energy. Lucky you — your diet is the easiest to follow! You feel your best on a diet that incorporates a wide range of foods, and your ideal macronutrient ratio is 40% carbs, 30% protein, and 30% fat.

But the bottom line is, you have to burn more calories than you take in. That's it. And to really do this successfully, you have to eat the ideal diet for your body and metabolism. Believe me — I've struggled with this myself. And I've done a lot of research and work to figure out my ideal diet. And now I want to share my findings with you. I have recipes and snacks that will help you eat better for your body type. And I have secrets and tricks to make it easier. (I didn't say "easy.")

My 3 Steps to Behavior Modification

Lots of so-called "experts" talk about willpower. Well, I say screw willpower — there's no such thing! Sure, we all have fleeting moments of bravado. But that virtue comes and goes. I'm going to teach you some basic techniques to change your habits and program yourself against failure!

You are going to have to do the work, though. I don't want to hear that you don't have the time. If that's your excuse, then get back to me when you're ready. I'll be here.

Ready? OK, good. Let's make some changes together:

  1. Avoid Dangerous Situations

    Stop driving by the donut shop on your way to work. When you go out to dinner, ask the waiter not to bring bread to your table.
  2. Get a Hobby

    Start taking your dog on longer walks. Fix up your attic. By focusing on positive activities, you'll find yourself becoming more relaxed, happier, and thinner!
  3. Curb Mindless Eating

    Don't eat while standing up, and don't skip meals. Brush your teeth after every meal and snack. Food never seems as appealing when you have that toothpaste taste in your mouth.

These life changes will help you lose weight and keep it off. To learn more about each one and to see the other four — sign up for my online program.
