Different Types of Fitness Fit Different Types of People!

It’s very, very difficult to exercise your way to skinny. SCIENCE repeatedly shows us that: Shifting what you eat, when you eat it, how much you eat and what you use to supplement that fuel plays a much more significant role in weight loss and weight stabilization that exercise alone. Still, fitness is a factor … it must be!

Yet it is another area where many Americans are behind in what SCIENCE has shown to be most effective. Study after study demonstrate that something called Short Burst Training has a much greater impact on fat burning. How particular activities affect different muscle types and thus the lasting fat burning effect is critical for you to understand in order to simplify fat loss.

Your D-N-A holds the answers for Y-O-U!

Talk about predictability … perhaps THE biggest and most important advancement in SCIENCE when it comes to understanding weight loss for a given individual is this one!

A well-known clinical study was done by one of America’s top universities, Stanford University. The purpose of the study was to determine if DNA testing may be effective in assisting people to lose weight.

When compared to other well-established weight loss programs (maybe some of those out there you’ve tried in the past), those people that were on a meal plan designed specific to THEIR genetic profile lost 2.5 times more weight AND they were much more successful in keeping the weight off compared to those not on an individualized plan. The science speaks for itself!

“Intermittent Fasting” Pushes Your Body to Burn Fat

The word “FASTING” is definitely one that is misunderstood. Once again, it’s something many folks are ignorant to. Many hear the word and think only of a spiritual practice. Most think you would be miserable and starving from any form of a fast … and that it would create the effect that we wrote about recently regarding “starvation diets”. But NO that’s not what we’re implementing with intermittent fasting!

What is Intermittent Fasting??

Put simply, it’s a pattern of eating. Intermittent fasting is not a “diet”.

There’s more to it than just “eating less”

Starvation diets do not work. Period. SCIENCE has shown again and again that merely cutting the amount of food is not necessarily the answer.

Throwing the body into a “starvation mode” actually results in the body holding fat. In essence the body senses a problem or a threat and prepares for survival over the long haul. When this happens you actually HOLD fat – not burn fat. SCIENCE demonstrates this!

There are natural ways to help jump start metabolism!

The science based secret we covered in our last blog is that many prescription drugs CAUSE weight gain. At the same time, weight loss does not require strong, potent or expensive prescription drugs. Why would a person risk some serious complication (side note: ALL drugs have potential side effects!) when you may be able to accomplish the same thing safely and sensibly?
