3 Ways To Lose Weight Fast And Easy!

Here are some FREE helpful tips that will help you lose weight fast and easy.

One thing I want you to notice when reading the list is that none of these tips require you to spend a lot of money or take up a bunch of time throughout the day, so If your in the market to lose weight fast and easy we're suppling the tools for you.


By incorporating all 3 of these changes in your day to day routine will result in the numbers on the scale changing as well, I PROMISE.


O and If anyone's hitting the gym today(hopefully everyone is lol) be sure to try the exercise of the day and let us know what you thought of it. I heard the last one was pretty challenging  but also effective. Here's the list:

1) Toxins 

One way to lose weight is to flush out all of the toxins in your body.
Change your diet to one based on fruits and vegetables, nuts and seeds.
This detox diet will flush out the toxins in your colon. This will help
your digestive system function optimally, as well as your body, resulting weight loss!

2) Alkaline Balance 

Bring back your alkaline balance. Acidic residue is the number one cause
of obesity. It can be cured by eating healthy to restore an alkaline ph,
rather than an acidic one. Junk foods and all unhealthy foods will
increase the acidity of the body.  Fruits and vegetables keep your body
alkaline or basic . This is why some people can eat a whole bunch of
food and still keep thin, due to proper balance of foods. 

3) Exercise 

You need to exercise if you want to lose weight(preferably in the morning). It is not
something that will happen overnight. Think of a plan to lose weight and stick 
with it. Try to make a schedule for each day. Do this on a consistent basis for
at least 30-60 minutes a day and you will burn off a lot of calories. Remember to
stay healthy and just do it!

How to Get Big Calves

GUYS!!!

Women DO look and, yes, they DO judge you for it!

You can be as strong as possible on all of the main calf lifts, but it won’t mean jack if you do not have the low insertions. Sure, they may have size, but they may just not be as noticeable. Face it, some people will have great calves and some will not. You should definitely still train them despite your genetics. Arnold had pathetic calves, but as you can see, he brought them up through hard work and dedication. You can do it too.

Anatomy of the Calves:

The calf muscle has two main parts: Gastrocnemius and the Soleus. The Gastrocnemius is made up of two heads: the medial and the lateral. These two heads will appear to form a diamond shape whenever they are fully developed. We love our standing calf raises to build the Gastrocs.

The Soleus is not visible looking at the body on the outside. It actually lies underneath the Gastrocnemius on the rear of the lower leg. The Soleus will be most active when doing exercises whenever your knees are bent. Having a strong Soleus is important to the thickness of your lower leg, helps to stabilize your ankles, and helps to protect your Achilles. This is why doing seated calf exercises are also import.

The Top 5 Best Calves Exercises

• Smith Machine Calf Raises
•  Seated Calf Raises
• Donkey Calf Raises
• Standing single leg DB Calf Raise
• Leg Press Calf Press (Toe Push)

Remember, we use our calves everyday, all day, so don't be afraid to throw on the weights, GO HEAVY!!!
If you have any questions please leave a comment. Thanks

Train For Your Body Type

If you have been exercising for 30 days or more with the goal of LOSING WEIGHT with NO visible results (your measurements/body fat/weight) chances are, you are not working according to your body type. There are basically three different body types.

AN ENDOMORPH is a person with a naturally low metabolic rate is of a medium to large frame and is more prone to putting on fat weight (if you claim to just smell food and put on weight you are an endomorph) and therefore they need to watch their diets and exercise regularly to stay in shape.

AN ECTOMORPH is a small framed person with a naturally high metabolic rate in short these are the people everyone wishes would choke on their pastries as it just doesn't show on them! But ectos being hard gainers, cannot gain muscle definition easily so you see no one has it all!

A MESOMORPH is naturally very strong, of medium to large frame, has well defined musculature and though they too require regular exercise to keep in shape (who doesn't?!) they usually respond to exercise faster, than endomorphs.

The Three Basic Body Types

ECTOMORPH:
Thin, Flat chest, Delicate build, Young appearance, Tall, Stoop-shouldered, Has trouble gaining muscle mass
MESOMORPH:
Hard, muscular body, Overly mature appearance, Thick skin, Upright posture, Gains or loses weight easily, Grows muscle quickly
ENDOMORPH:
Soft body, Underdeveloped muscles, Round shaped, Over-developed digestive system, Trouble losing weight, Generally gains muscle easily

A person maybe a combination of body types, so to make things easier they can be further classified into 4 more categories:


Combination Body Types

HOURGLASS

A very Indian shape to have, wherein the waist size is a lot lesser than the chest and hips, though the chest is slightly heavier than the hips. These are the people who look proportionate even if slightly overweight as their weight is equally distributed throughout the body, their upper and lower bodies have more strength than endurance, and though they do gain weight easily they also lose it as easily and proportionately.

Recommended Exercise

Cardiovascular exercises: Low impact aerobics, cycling at low to moderate tension and higher speed, brisk walking or the treadmill at maximum 3-4 incline but higher speed is recommended depending on your fitness level. Strength Training: Stick to moderate to high repetitions* (12-15 reps*) and on and off even use rep combinations as high as 25 reps and low to moderate weights (concept will vary with time as you get fitter). A combination of both compound and isolation movements will prove effective. How much weight you lift is also dependant on how you want to look ultimately. This kind of a workout will help you get fitter, stronger and leaner.

RULER

The waist chest and hips are in almost equal proportion and rulers gain weight more easily in the midsection, they do not bulk or add muscle mass easily however their weight loss is also almost equal throughout. They usually handle endurance exercises more easily than strength training.

Recommended Exercise 

Cardiovascular exercise: Biking with high tension, walking on an incline treadmill or uphill, running, jogging, steppers or stair climbers with moderate resistance will all help in burning fat effectively.

Strength training: Higher repetitions* (20+ reps*), with moderate to heavy weights. Choose more basic and compound movements over isolation (chose isolation only as finishing exercise).

CONE

As the name states, their upper body is much larger than the lower, the stomach normally protrudes and the arms and chest bulk easily though they are a lot slimmer hip downwards.

Recommended Exercise

Cardiovascular exercise:  Cycling at moderate to high tension and brisk walking or treadmill at moderate incline (3-5) and high speed, avoid jogging at high tension.
Strength training: Concentrate on lightweights and higher repetitions on the upper body and moderate to heavy weight and moderate repetitions (12-15) on the lower body. Choose compound movements for both upper and lower body as well as isolation.

SPOON

The lower body is distinctly larger than the upper body, thick upper thighs, bulky inner thighs, outer thighs stick out (saddle bags) dense calves, thickset ankles, weak lower ab muscles and weak upper body.

Recommended Exercise

Cardiovascular exercise:  Cycle at higher speed and lesser tension, brisk walking or walking at high speed on treadmill without incline. Avoid steppers/stair climbers, high impact aerobics as they will further add bulk to lower body.
Strength training: Doing compound movements with moderate to heavy weights for the upper body, and both compound movements and isolation with high repetitions for the lower body is recommended.

Crossfit WOD

Thursday December 2nd 2010 CrossFit Workout of the Day:

Five rounds for time of:
Row 500 meters
135 pound Thruster, 7 reps

3 Reasons to Workout in the Morning

1. Wake up! Its morning and time to jumpstart your metabolism by giving your body the correct nutrients and doing a morning workout. Getting your workout done in the AM starts your day with a positive productive outlook that carries on throughout the day. This feeling is due to chemicals being released in your brain during working out such as adrenaline which is defined as:

Adrenaline: a hormone secreted by the adrenal medulla upon stimulation by the central nervous system in response to stress, as anger or fear, and acting to increase heart rate, blood pressure, cardiac output, and carbohydrate metabolism.

*picture on the left shows one of the two adrenal medulla glands which release adrenaline and are located immediately anterior to the kidneys, beneath the peritoneum.*  

2. Waking up early and working out also gets your heart pumping a larger amount of blood throughout your body which will help keep your circulatory system clean and healthy. When you work your muscles causing them to require more oxygen, your heart works harder to supply your muscles with oxygen from your red blood cells. Thus you reach your THR (Target Heart Rate) for optimal fat burning intensity levels.




3.  Starting your day with a solid workout will peak your metabolism first thing in the morning which will cause your body to burn more calories throughout the day. When you work out at night it may make it more difficult to sleep at night because your body released endorphins into your system which is defined as:

Endorphin: One of the body's own painkillers, an opioid (morphine-like) chemical produced by the body that serves to suppress pain.

Endorphins are manufactured in the brain, spinal cord, and many other parts of the body. They are released in response to neurotransmitters and bind to certain neuron receptors (the same ones that bind opiate medicines). Endorphins act as analgesics (diminishing the perception of pain) and as sedatives.
Chemically, endorphins are peptides (amino acid chains that are shorter than proteins) and they are rapidly inactivated by enzymes called peptidases.

The main benefit to working out in the morning over the afternoon is that you peak your metabolism early which carries on throughout the day burning more calories. Also causing your body to function more efficiently and healthy.  Remember, when you workout and get sore, its because your microscopically tearing your muscles down. Then when your muscles are repairing themselves getting stronger, your body burns through more calories even when your sleeping!!

Metabolism = Muscle!!!

1lb of muscle burns 50 calories per day @ Rest!!!

Post questions in the comment section below!!

Skeletal Muscle Structure

Say NO! to body fat

Use strategies that slow down the rate at which sugar is absorbed into your bloodstream so your body doesn't store as much fat. Utilizing these strategies will result in staying lean and preventing your body fat percentage from increasing.

Try them out and let us know the results, Thanks!

Fruit and Veggies

Replace breads, pastas and rice with fruits and veggies. No, this is not the atkins diet because you are not eliminating carbs from your diet, you are just simply changing the type of carbs. Most Fruits and veggies provide us with the type of sugars that metabolize at a fast rate, which means your body will not store the sugar as fat, but rather use it for energy.

Chromium Picolinate

In a recent study, Swiss scientists gave a test group a single 400 microgram (mcg.) dose of Chromium Picolinate before they consumed a high-carbohydrate meal. Subsequently, the group’s blood-glucose levels were 23% lower than when they ate the same meal without the supplement. Try it yourself, but make sure the mineral name includes ‘Picolinate’; the compound is the form of Chromium that your body can most readily use. Don't double your dose though, thinking you’ll get better results, you won't burn fat faster by taking more. Researchers found that 800 mcg. was no more effective than 400mcg.

Hydroxycitric acid

(HCA), a rare organic acid, reduces appetite and helps prevent excess carbohydrates from being stored as body fat. Hydroxycitric acid is derived from the Malabar tamarind tropical fruit (Garcinia cambogia) native to India. HCA has been found to inhibit mitochondrial citrate lyase, leading to decreased acetyl coenzyme-A production and decreased fatty acid synthesis.

Filling Sandwich

Turkey, a good source of natural CLA, is a tasty filling for this simple sandwich. CLA is conjugated linoleic acid, which helps reduce body fat in people who are overweight. It doesn't help a big fat cell get little, but instead helps keep a little fat cell from getting big. Top it with a little onion. Onions contain an antioxidant called quercetin, which may keep your body from storing fat. Serve with a toasted whole-grain bun to add more fiber.

Exercise Early

Scientists at Syracuse University recently found that a single weight-training session early in the day, reduces the effect of a high-sugar meal on blood glucose by 15% for more than 12 hours after a workout. The most likely reason is that exercise drains your muscles' fuel reserves, which is stored glucose known as glycogen.

To ensure that you have plenty of energy for your next workout, your body immediately moves any available glucose to your muscles, where it's packed away for future use, which helps reduce blood-glucose levels. So until glycogen levels are replenished, which can take several hours, high-sugar foods aren't as detrimental to eat. Because aerobic exercise requires glycogen too, you can also expect to burn fat faster from a cardiovascular workout.  

Drink plenty of water

The truth is drinking 8 glasses of water per day is good for the avg person, but If you want to burn fat as fast as possible 16 glasses a day is what is expected.

Water helps supercharge cells, flush out harmful toxins, and increase your metabolism. consuming a lot of water makes it hard for the fat to "stick" to your body.

PLEASE Comment if you have any questions!

Sugar Isn't Just Sweet

The majority of us don’t know exactly how many calories we eat in one day.  Before you eat a muffin it will assist your fitness goals to know what you are consuming so it doesn’t lead to a “MuffinTop.”  One blueberry muffin can have 380 calories, 19g of fat, and 28g of SUGAR!!

Burn Fat Faster – Eliminating the Negative Effects of Sugar

Sugar is considered a health food, according to it's publicist. It contains zero fat, is low in calories in small amounts, and provides instant energy. These attributes are all trumped by a simple physiological fact, In large quantities, sugar will make you fat! That may seem overtly obvious, but by understanding why it adds more fat to your body, you can minimize sugar's negative effects and create a leaner, healthier body.
Eating sugar is like flipping a switch that tells your body to store more fat. Sugar is everywhere, found in soda, candy, and desserts. Hidden sugar is disguised in refined carbohydrates like bread, rice, and pasta, and even in beer and milk. Your body can't tell the difference between the two, so it quickly digests and absorbs all of these sugars into your bloodstream by converting it to glucose. For example, one slice of white bread is converted into the same amount of glucose as 4 tablespoons of sugar.

Every time you eat sugar your blood glucose level rises, which stimulates the release of insulin, a powerful hormone that signals your body to store fat. The more sugar you consume, the greater the rise in blood glucose and the more your body stores fat.
There is a lot of media coverage about the dangers of saturated fat (and for good reason), but there is not enough coverage on the dangers of sugar. Limit both sugar intake and saturated fat in your diet, and you will see astonishing changes in your body. You will not believe the difference.I PROMISE!!!
Of course, you may not be ready to give up subs, fries, and spaghetti just yet, but you can use strategies that slow down the rate at which sugar is absorbed into your bloodstream(so your body doesn't store as much fat). You'll diminish the impact any food has on your glucose levels and your body's ability to burn fat faster...

Come back tomorrow to view multiple strategies that will decrease the rate sugar and or refined carbs are converted into body fat!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we don't have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have.     

Thanksgiving dinner has over 2000 calories? It can be a real challenge if you are watching your waistline. The following are some eating tips so that you can still look good and be healthy after the Thanksgiving dinner without having to deprive yourself.

Healthy Holiday Eating Tips for Thanksgiving

If you are a guest of a Thanksgiving dinner: Don't go to the Thanksgiving dinner hungry: we often eat faster and more when we are hungry - therefore eat a wholesome breakfast and lunch on the day to avoid overeating at dinner time. Thanksgiving dinner is not an all-you-can-eat buffet: Fill your plate half with vegetables, one quarter with a lean meat and the rest with a starch of your choice. Eat slowly and stop when you are full. Turkey - go skinless: choose your 4-oz turkey portion skinless to slash away some fat and cholesterol. Save your appetite for the side dishes and desserts. Side Dishes - watch your portion size: go for smaller portions. This way you can sample all the different foods. Moderation is always the key. Make a conscious choice to limit high fat items: high fat food items can be found in fried and creamy dishes as well as cheese-filled casseroles in a traditional Thanksgiving meal . For instance, mashed potatoes are usually made with butter and milk; green bean casseroles are often prepared with cream of mushroom soup, cheese and milk and topped with fried onions; candied yams are loaded with cream, sugar and marshmallows. If you cannot control the ingredients that go in to a dish, simply limit yourself to a smaller helping size. Again moderation is the key. Drink plenty of water: alcohol and coffee can dehydrate your body. Drink calorie-free water to help fill up your stomach and keep you hydrated.

Interval Training for Maximum Fat Burning Results

 Traditional workout focuses more on building muscle rather than burning calories and shedding fat fast.

This is the type of training (minimal rest time w/ max intensity) that you should do to achieve the best fat burning results!

L-Carnatine Facts

L-Carnitine is used most effectively for weight loss when you take it first thing in the morning on a empty stomach. Then do some type of cardio exercise for 20-30 minutes which will start your bodies metabolism on a fat burning cycle throughout the day. Let Psychosomatic Fitness know if you have any questions!

L-carnitine transfers long-chain fatty acids, such as triglycerides into mitochondria (a cell's energy powerhouse), where they may be oxidized to produce energy. L-carnitine is a very popular supplement that promotes growth and development. It is also used for fat-burning, increasing energy, and improving resistance to muscle fatigue. L-carnitine has also been shown to help build muscle. is also great in dieting, as it reduces feelings of hunger and weakness. 

Studies have been conducted on L-carnitine since as early as 1937. They show that the body's cardiovascular system can greatly benefit from its intake. There are a variety of published studies that show L-carnitine is useful in increasing the heart's output and improving it's functioning, as well as stimulating the heart's energy supply and improving cardiac performance.
