With alot of fat loss programs they are usually touted by individuals who sit behind desks and have never lifted a weight in their life and that really annoys me, having spent many years of blood sweat and tears in the gym.

Now I have long been a fan of  muscle building and fat shredding guru Jeff Anderson who created the Optimum Anabolics natural testosterone boosting workout program which I still use regularly to boost muscle gains.  Jeff spent many years in the US army as a fitness coach and body conditioning instructor and has applied this knowledge and also thorough scientific research to come up with a revolutionary fat burning program that is designed to banish ugly belly fat and get you in your best shape ever.

Now the program is called Combat the Fat and it uses the most powerful fat burning strategies to keep you lean healthy and strong.

Here is where it gets exciting I have decided to personally take on the 12 week Combat the Fat challenge and give this revolutionary fat burning program a go and I want you to join me guys and gals…….. starting on June 8th

Yes that’s right join me from day one all the way through the 12 weeks. I shall be creating a secure website just for our use. You will be able to send in your before pictures and progress pictures as well as sharing your daily workout experiences and feelings. I shall be available to offer advice throughout so let’s get down to it and burn off that belly fat, feed off each other and get shredded.

To join me on the secure server website simply join Combat the Fat here and then send me an email to dave@sixpackquest.com with just your name and title Combat the Fat and all the details will be supplied.

Lets get started and get yourself that healthy lean chiselled body!

Being fit and healthy is the in thing. Actually, it really never goes out of style. That body is the most valuable asset you could have in your lifetime. Thus it is important that you take good care of it. Give it the proper attention it needs.

When it comes to ensuring and maintaining the health, the best option is to do cardio training.

What Is Cardio Training?

Cardio training involves any activity that requires the use of the large muscle groups of the body in a regular and uninterrupted manner. It elevates the heart rate between 60 to 85 percent of the fastest heart rate you could get.

Some of the usual cardio training activities are walking, jogging, running, aerobics, cycling, tae bo, swimming and rowing. Cardio training is considered an aerobic exercise as one is required to move from one exercise to another. Read the rest of this entry

every other day dietGot a question for you:   Should you “stay hungry”?

Let me explain what I mean.

Arnold Schwarzenegger made a movie a while time ago called “Stay Hungry.” Only a handful of people saw it. I was one of them. I loved the idea of “staying hungry” — of never sitting on your rear end too long… of never being totally comfortable… and of always progressing.

Think about it:

Most of your greatest progress comes at the expense of temporary comfort. This does not mean you should torture yourself. But being ‘too’ comfortable? Well that’s bad news when it comes to weightloss and success in general if you ask me.

Here’s two examples:
First, it is now 1:02 AM Texas time. I am writing this letter to you despite being quite tired and ready to hit the sack.

Why?

Because when it comes to my job, I like to stay hungry.

I am not satisfied with a “do it tomorrow” attitude. I have something to say and I feel that I owe it to you to say it. Plus I love my job. I know my information is more than just “books that sell well” — I know it’s information that changes peoples lives. That makes me stay hungry.

Lose Body Fat

Contrary to popular belief there are many healthy fats that can use to lose body fat and one great example is Grass-fed (pasture-raised) butter — yes, delicious smooth and rich BUTTER (real butter, not deadly margarine!)… It’s delicious, contains loads of healthy nutritional factors, and does NOT have to be avoided in order to lose body fat.

Grass Fed Butter

1. There’s a lot of confusion about this topic… in fact, I just saw a TV show today that was talking about unhealthy foods and one of the first things they showed was butter.  It just shows that the majority of the population has zero idea that butter (grass-fed only!) can actually be a healthy part of your diet.

In fact, there’s even ample evidence that REAL butter can even help you to lose body fat for a couple of main reasons:

a. Grass-fed butter is known to have high levels of a healthy fat called CLA, which has been shown to have anti-cancer properties, and also has been shown to help lose body fat and build lean muscle.

b. Grass-fed butter also has an ideal balance of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids (unlike conventional grain-fed butter) which helps fight inflammation in your body, and can help balance hormones.

c. The healthy fats in grass-fed butter also contain MCTs, which help to boost your immune system and are readily burned by the body for energy.  The healthy fats in grass-fed butter also help to satisfy your appetite and control blood sugar levels, both of which help you to stay lean!

2.  Whole Eggs, including the yolk (not just egg whites) – Most people know that eggs are one of the highest quality sources of protein.  However, most people don’t know that the egg yolks are the healthiest part of the egg… that’s where almost all of the vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants (such as lutein) are found in eggs.

egg whites and egg nutrition

In fact, the egg yolks contain more than 90% of the calcium, iron, phosphorus, zinc, thiamin, B6, folate, and B12, and panthothenic acid of the egg. In addition, the yolks contain ALL of the fat soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K in the egg, as well as ALL of the essential fatty acids.  Also, the protein of whole eggs is more bio-available than egg whites alone due to a more balanced amino acid profile that the yolks help to build.

Just make sure to choose free-range organic eggs instead of normal grocery store eggs.  Similar to the grass-fed beef scenerio, the nutrient content of the eggs and the balance between healthy omega-3 fatty acids and inflammatory omega-6 fatty acids (in excess) is controlled by the diet of the hens.

Chickens that are allowed to roam free outside and eat a more natural diet will give you healthier, more nutrient-rich eggs with a healthier fat balance compared with your typical grocery store eggs (that came from chickens fed nothing but soy and corn and crowded inside “egg factories” all day long).

If you want more details on eggs, here is an article that details more about why egg yolks are BETTER for you than egg whites.

flat stomach foods

The first food myth that should be dispelled when looking to build a flat stomach is that eating fat does not not make you fat. In fact it is essential that you include healthy fats in your diet to keep your hormones balanced, blood sugar under control, and prevent cravings.  In the next articles we shall be looking at examples of “fatty” foods that can actually HELP you to get lean flat stomach…

1.  Super Dark Chocolate (at least 72% cacao content or higher) – It might not be a secret anymore, but yes, dark chocolate (NOT milk chocolate) can be a very healthy food, even though it is technically calorie dense.

However, I would contend that dark chocolate can actually HELP you to get a flat stomach if you’re the type of person that has a sweet tooth and likes to eat a lot of desserts.  In this case, just 1 or 2 small squares of dark chocolate can many times satisfy your sweet tooth for only 30 or 40 calories as opposed to 500 calories for a piece of chocolate cake or a piece of pie.

Also some brands of dark chocolate that are in the mid 70′s in % cacao content or higher, can have a fairly high ratio of fiber content (I’ve seen some brands have 5 grams of fiber out of 15 grams of total carbs per serving), and relatively low sugar content compared to the amount of healthy fats.  In fact, that’s one of the “tricks” I use to select a good quality chocolate… I look for more total fat than total carbs (or about the same number of grams of each).

The importance of that fact is that it means many dark chocolates will not greatly affect your blood sugar and will have a fairly blunted blood sugar response compared to other “sweets”.

In addition, dark chocolate is also very rich in healthful antioxidants, including a powerful compound called theobromine which has been shown to help lower blood pressure and have other health benefits.  The fat content in a good dark chocolate should come solely from the natural healthy fats occuring in cocoa butter and not from any other added fats.  Any chocolates with added fats or other additives will generally not be as healthy.

The reason I say to choose dark chocolates with at least 72% cacao content is that the higher the % of cacao, the lower the % of sugar.  However, this does mean that any chocolate over 80% cacao content will generally start to get a more bitter taste and have very little sweetness.  If you like this type of taste, then the higher % cocao, the better. Otherwise, a good 75% dark chocolate is in my opinion an almost perfect combination of lightly sweet with a rich chocolate taste.  Just remember to keep those daily quantities of chocolate small as it is calorie dense! this is a great tip for getting that flat stomach

You can also reap the benefits of the antioxidants and fiber without all of the calories by using organic unsweetened cocoa powder in your smoothies or other recipes.

As you can see as long as you are disciplined you can satisfy your sweet tooth and still get that flat stomach you desire
