One thing we have to lose from our workout mindsets is the idea of this “60-minute workout”. Forget about spending that much time in the gym. Instead, choose better exercises that are more efficient. This will allow you to get your workout done faster, eliminating the “no time” workout excuse.

To do so, you need to eliminate irrelevant exercises. I know you want to do an exercise for shoulders, and one for arms, and one for abs, and one for this and that. But before you do, ask yourself, will… Click Here to Read More

Black Friday Fat Loss Prediction

This may or may not apply to you in regards to Black Friday, but chances are it applies to your life one way or another.

You see, I predict that untold numbers of people got up super early today and went shopping on Black Friday. I also  predict these folks either skipped breakfast or grabbed something sugary on the way out the door.

Then at some point, when their shopping frenzy has begun to die down, they’ll plop down at a food court and load up on greasy fast food or something very close.

You can’t really miss it on the Internet these days. Seems like everywhere you look there’s another company promoting the nutritious Acai Berry as a weight loss miracle.

And that’s why I thought it was critical to write this today. I want to make sure you know my opinion on the subject.

First, you know better than to believe you’re going to pop some pills – ANY pills – and have the pounds and inches melt off like magic. If you’ve been listening to me for any length of time you know true fat loss comes from a variety of… Click Here to Read More

As you probably already know, there’s only one nutrition company I believe has your best interests at heart. And when I heard they were having a rather unusual sale for Thanksgiving I had to tell you about it.

You see, PRo Grade PR has two big reasons to be thankful this week.

  1. They have completely revamped their website. It really is cool and it makes ordering SO much simpler.
  2. They have just released their brand new Anti-oxidant formula – Prograde Longevity.

Oh, and the interesting part is it’s an 11% off… Click Here to Read More

The 3 Best Abdominal Exercises that Are Not Traditional Ab Exercises

November 20, 2008 by · Leave a Comment
Filed under: Fat Loss Programs, Workouts 

Instead of the typical ab routines that we see so often with crunches, situps, leg lifts, etc… I like to give my readers better options for metabolism-boosting high intensity workouts that work their entire body while also working their abs… thus building rock hard abs & core, but also creating a much better fat-burning workout than a typical ab workout.

I’m going to show you an example today of one of my favorite “ab workouts” that doesn’t include any direct “ab exercises” at all. It’s in a tri-set format (similar to a super-set but alternating between 3 exercises). Click Here to Read More

3 Reasons to Avoid Elliptical Machines

The latest Men’s Health magazine comes down on elliptical machines hard.

Now I know elliptical machines are often the only option for people with bad knees, but if your knees are healthy, think twice before using the elliptical machine for these three reasons.

First, on page 52 of the December, 2008 issue, Men’s Health warns, “Never trust elliptical machines”.

They quote a study that found elliptical machines over-estimated the number of calories burned in a workout by 31%! Click Here to Read More

It happens to almost everyone. You get home from work, tired, hungry, and stressed, and you eat a nice dinner. But even though you are full, you go back to the fridge at 8. Then at 8:30. And then again at 9. You might even hit the fridge, or worse – the freezer for ice cream – at 10:30.

Night-time eating. Binge eating. Whatever you call it, it’s killing your progress. So here are my top 5 tips for overcoming binge eating.

Yesterday Workout a Fat Burning Feeling

Yesterday’s exercise session was very intense. I still get a burning feeling in my muscles. Is like something is stimulating my muscles even 24 hours after the workout. Do you feel this way too?

I get this feeling because I train hard. Every time I do a super set or a circuit my heart is beating so hard and my breathing can be heard from far away people get scared. They think I’m on steroids. I just love to feel that my heart is working hard and if I get a fatigue effect, I know I will lose fat during the Click Here to Read More

Here in Puerto Rico politics are just like sports, a whole bunch of fans going crazy like is the Superbowl in the island. People driving with flags and signs of their favorite candidate and others just making noise on the street with their cars. Me on the other hand; I see it as a day to enjoy the freedom of this country.

This election day I went to the beach and it was great, not many people and just me, my wife and my friends. Spending the day at the beach doesn’t mean I can’t workout.
