I’ve Had it With My Fat Abs!

Victoria,

I was watching TV and I saw an ad about belly fat and I was wondering if it is as dangerous as the ad said. You know that they just want to sell you a bunch of expensive pills and then they tell you, you don’t have to exercise and you can eat whatever you want.

I have a big round belly and I hate it. I hate my fat abs and I want to do something that works. It’s not so much buying the pills that worries me, it’s a waste of my time and money and still never being able to sit down without my stomach resting in my lap. I feel really self-conscious. It seems that the fat is getting lumpier by the day.

What is the truth and what can I do to get rid of this stuff?

I Want a High Yoga Butt Like Yours

“I Want To Have a High Yoga Butt Like Yours”

OMG! I was in the gym the other day and I walked on the Stepmill Cardio Climber for a while to burn some stored body fat and to tighten my legs and glutes.

I know many male trainers are against cardio. Personally, I love cardio and would never skip cardio or have my clients skip the one scientific principle that strengthens the heart, builds a stronger respiratory system, improve circulation, cleanses arteries, acts as a natural antidepressant relieves stress, improves your overall energy and not to mention it helps get rid of ugly fat!

SO, when you read their material, judge by your mirror and your and your body dimples. Each of us has our own preferences. YOU need to decide for yourself what works for you!

Janet Jackson Loses Her Belly Fat

Janet Drops 60 Pounds and loses her belly fat.

She is styling at a svelte 120 pounds.
She is heavy in the media right now talking about her new movie release: Why Did I Get Married?

Janet Jackson might have had many achievements and milestones in her singing career, but what spoke to me most was her amazing fat loss of 60 pounds in just 4 months.

Sounds bit like a dream, isn’t it? Most of us may shrug it off saying that she is wealthy enough to hire a personal trainer and a personal chef that helped her through. But leaving aside, these factors.

Janet Jackson’s weight loss was a result of 4 months of rigorous systematic exercise and a controlled diet. Apart from this she had one magic tool that made her lose weight – Motivation. She had the motivation to fight it out and stick to her diet no matter how hungry she felt and stick to her exercise program no matter how difficult it was.

Even if you don’t have as much money Janet had and her personal chef and trainer. You can still lose weight. Any one who has motivation can lose weight.

JANET’S DIET
Janet had a balanced glycemic diet. Her Nutritionist David Allen made her eat four meals a day. Added together these four meals did not exceed 1500 calories. Janet says, “they were small portions but enough to satisfy your palate and keep you moving.”

She omitted all the junk that she had as a part of her diet. She says, “We cut out processed foods, white sugar and white flour, alcohol, sodas, and she drank about 2-3 liters of Water a day.”

Here’s a sample of her daily diet menu that is like My Diet Program

Fresh Dining is only available to residents of Los Angeles and Orange Counties. If you live there, you too can get meals delivered to your door everyday. The service is not cheap.

It costs about $55 per day for three organic meals and two snacks. The meals are planned around how quickly you want to lose weight. You can choose the 1,000 calorie package or the 1,400 calorie package.

Blasting Belly Fat

What exactly is belly fat?

Fatty tissue which is stored around the stomach and abdomen which is called visceral fat and intra-abdominal carries a greater health risk than fat located in the lower body around the butt and thighs.

Is Fat around Your Midsection Unhealthy?

Yes, Yes and oh yeah did I say….YES!
Location…Location….Location!
Fat on Your Abdomen is more dangerous than fat on other parts of your body.

SO basically you can have a fat rear end and not have half the health risks as the person with belly fat. If you only have “love handles” — those are composed of fat near the surface of the skin. It’s the visceral fat that wraps around organs deeper in the abdomen that appears to be metabolically active.

People with a high degree of belly fat tend to lose sensitivity to insulin, a crucial hormone that helps the body burn energy. When insulin loses its power, the body responds by pumping out more of the hormone, which only throws the system further off balance.

As a result, people with extra belly fat are vulnerable to many problems such as insulin resistance syndrome or metabolic syndrome. The syndrome affects an estimated 70 million to 80 million Americans and comes with a frightening number of potential complications. AAAHHH!!!  You need to learn the Truth About Abs and losing belly fat once and for all.

Abdominal Training- You Don’t Have to Re-Invent The Wheel

When I was in grade school my mom bought an abdominal wheel. It was a piece of super training equipment advertised on TV for toning your upper body and shaping your abs.

Unlike many of the fitness gadgets that are promoted today, this product does what it says and is and was worth every penny. I used it all through high school. It was my secret weapon for having a strong upper body. I could do hand stands quick hand springs because of the strength I built.

My mom was always reading about diets and equipment and got me totally into it too.

I was probably six when I first pulled it from under her bed when she was shopping and not around. I grabbed it and started to rolling. The first couple of times I rolled all the way to the ground and almost lost my two front teeth as I hit the floor. I literally bit the dust.

Being a typical kid, I was not giving up. I clamped my little hands around the handles and tried it again. After a few more rolls I got it. Once I mastered it, I continued to use it until I left for college.

You see, I don’t think we have to always try to reinvent the wheel so to speak when it comes to training. I use traditional exercises when I develop a program for myself and my clients. Although I don’t use an abdominal wheel today, I have valued greatly from the foundational strength and conditioning I got from it.

Just because we learn something new does not mean we abandon everything that came before it. I was training for aerobic competitions and my abs were ripped and I was strong in my center, my upper and lower back were strong and flexible. I had not heard of pilates, yet I was kicking butt in the competitions and at the beach!
