Slim Down this Summer

Are you ready for a butt-kicking, fat burning workout that will give you ripped abs? This is the best fat burning ab workout you can do.

Let’s begin with the first superset which includes the Dumbbell Press Squat exercise and the Pull-up with Knee-up exercise.

For the DB Press Squat, start by holding the DB at shoulder height with your feet slightly wider than hip width apart. Next, squat down, and then drive up, while raising the DB above your head. Do all repetitions for one side,
then switch arms and do the other.

The second exercise in the first superset is the Pull-Up with Knee-Up. For this exercise, begin by taking an overhand grip, and as you pull-up, bring your knees up to your chest, and then slowly lower back down. Although a
difficult exercise to perform, this is a really great one because it’s actually two exercises in one.

If, however, you can’t do the Pull-up with Knee-up exercise, you can easily substitute high repetition dumbbell rows (20 reps per side). By doing a high number of repetitions, your body is fighting against the rotation. Therefore, if you keep proper form and do high reps, your abs will actually
feel it the next day. Just be sure to choose a weight that is very challenging, but still allows you to use proper form.

For the second superset of workout “B” in AAA Abs, you will perform the Front Loaded Bulgarian Split Squat along with an advanced version of the stability ball plank, the Stability Ball Plank Rollout.

To begin, get a dumbbell, kettlebell, or a weight plate and place it across your chest, lift one foot on a bench behind you, drop your hips straight down, keep your torso upright, and come back up. Do all repetitions for one side, and then switch over to the other side and do the same thing.

The second exercise of the superset is the Stability Ball Plank Rollout. To get in position for this exercise, place your elbows on the stability ball so that you’re body is now in a plank position with feet on the ground, and then roll the ball out and then back in. If you are unable to do this
exercise, then you can do a plank with arms on the ball. If that is still too difficult, then just do a regular plank with elbows on the floor.

For the third superset in workout “B” of AAA Abs, you will combine the One- Leg Stability Ball Leg Curl with a unique version of the side plank that includes a Dumbbell Lateral Raise.

So, for the leg curl exercise get on the floor and place one foot on the stability ball and the other straight up in the air. Next, you will curl the ball in and out, while bridging your hips up. Do all reps for one side, and then switch sides. This exercise provides a really powerful contraction for the hamstrings, and you need to work your body as a unit.

Once you’re done the leg curl exercise, you’re going to follow that up with the Side Plank with a DB Lateral Raise. Get into the side bridge position, hold the dumbbell down by your side, and then perform a side lateral raise up to the top and lower back down.

There’s still one more superset to go in workout “B” of AAA Abs. So, for this final superset you are going to combine Burpees and Chin-ups with Jumping Jacks or Running in Place.

For the first exercise of the superset, do a burpee and then immediately follow it with a chin-up. Do that for 10 repetitions and then do the jumping jacks or running in place for either 20 repetitions or 20 seconds. That is one set, so you will perform that 3 times in total.

This is the second in Atkins Diet misconceptions or myths series, and in this video I deal with the thought this is a high protein diet. Just check out google for “Atkins Diet” and “high protein,” and you’ll see how prevalent this misconception is.

USDA Food Pyramid Standard for Protein:
10-35% of Total Calories

http://health.msn.com/weight-loss/articlepage.aspx?cp-documentid=100186268

http://www.health.gov/DietaryGuidelines/dga2005/document/html/chapter5.htm

With 35% being the standard for high protein, what does Dr. Atkins recommend?
“The macro-nutrient breakout in the Induction phase is 60 percent fat, 30 percent protein and 10 percent carbohydrate. It should be more appropriately be called a high fat regimen. As you progress through the phases, your percentage of fat naturally diminishes as your percentage of carbohydrates increases.” Even in DANDR, he cautions against going high protein on page 43,
“No, because when you cut out fat, what is left is protein and carbohydrate, both of which can produce a blood-sugar response. Fat is the only substance that won’t have an impact on your blood sugar. It also provides essential fatty acids you can’t get from protein or carbohydrates. Contrary to much of what you may have heard, fat can be good for you! (43)”

Dangers of low fat, low carb, high protein diet:
Sources:

* http://www.medbio.info/Horn/PDF%20files/rabbit%20starvation.pdf

Rabbit starvation is the form of acute malnutrition caused by excess consumption of any lean meat (e.g. rabbit) coupled with a lack of other sources of nutrients usually in combination with other stressors, such as severe cold or dry environment. Symptoms include diarrhea, headache, lassitude, a vague discomfort and hunger that can only be satisfied by consumption of fat or carbohydrates.

How much protein is advisable:
*** .8 – 1.2g per kg of body weight – normal adults, or roughly 72g to 109g per day for 200 pound adult
*** Up to 1.6g per kg – for extremely active or weight lifting adults, or 145g for 200 pound adult (29%)

http://www.MeTheDoctor.com/vegan-diet — Vegetarian Weight Loss.

There is a lot of hype today about what the body does and does not need, especially in the diet industry.

Nevertheless, for all the years that people have been doing these various diets America is still getting fatter.

Studies show that nearly 75% of the adult population is overweight and diabetes among American children is growing at an alarming rate.

Make a positive change today by trying the vegetarian diet.
Vegetables are a great source of vitamins and when you cut out all the meat, you will begin losing weight nearly effortlessly.

Don’t buy into the myths that a vegetarian weight loss plan is unhealthy.

http://www.MeTheDoctor.com/how-to-lose-fat – Making a Fat Burning Diet Work for You

The secret to true weight loss is a fat burning diet.

This diet is not the type that you have to give up all the foods that you love, pop a bunch of diet pills that have uncomfortable side effects, or anything like that.

It is about taking the foods that you eat and making them work for you! It is about eating and exercising in such a way that your muscles are strengthened and toned.

The muscles will then work to burn off all that unwanted fat in your body.

Plus, you’ll discover the 10 foods NOT to eat on a weight loss diet.

These are a couple of items on my list of 10 foods NOT to eat if you are following a vegetarian weight loss diet.

The first thing is something that many people like to have in the morning and that is a protein shake. They look very healthy, but what is interesting about these is they have too much sugar per serving. There are usually 2 servings in each bottle, so you are eating way too much sugar. Read the labels for these.

Another product I’ve found is a protein shake with greens. Although I love greens, this shake is loaded with sugar. The greens are great, but I dont like them in this form of a protein drink.

Protein or breakfast bars are next and tend to be loaded with sugars. They need to add binders and extra sugars to them for taste and that translates into more sugar. For example, a Kashi bar does have a good amount of protein, however, the sugar count is higher than the protein count. You need to read the labels on these.

Next is whole wheat bread. All bread is made of wheat, but what you want to watch out for is even if it says its whole wheat, it may be just glorified flour. A great test to see if it is whole wheat is to ball up a slice in your hand. If it holds the ball, that is a great indicator that it is not whole wheat. This doughy ball will turn into sugar very quickly after you eat it. When it turns into sugar in your body, it will turn into fat very quickly as well. You want to pick a whole wheat bread that doesn’t ball up and is actually a little chunky or rough.

Frozen foods are another trap you can fall into. These are great if you are on the go, however, they arent so good because they are very high in sodium and carbs. They sound great, but the carb content is just too high. You can find some that are ok, so be sure to check the protein and sodium levels very closely and balance them out in your diet. You can get away with eating some good ones once in awhile.

One more thing is a Slim Fast breakfast drink. I want to show you this one because the label can be very deceiving. You always want to look beyond the label on the front and look at the list of ingredients on the back first. Interestingly enough, the first ingredient in this protein shake is sugar and then oil. Now, if you are making your own protein drink, would you add sugar and oil to it? Nope! The next ingredient is protein powder, however, in one serving there is only 2 grams of protein. You need to add 8-ounces of milk to get the 10 grams of protein. So, basically, you are drinking a sugar and milk shake. Get rid of it!

A lot of people love to have burritos, wraps or quesadillas. Thats great, but you need to be careful of the tortillas and the flour that is in them. Most tortillas are in the 15-20 grams of refined carbs, so go for a whole wheat brand. I have some healthier options. One is a whole wheat tortilla by the “La Tortilla Factory” and is low-carb and very high in fiber. These are the kind of tortillas you want to find.

Another option for burritos and tacos is using lettuce to add that extra crunch. Simply rinse them off and use them as the wrap. You can use any variety such as butter lettuce or romaine. These will give you fiber and lots of nutrients and energy as well.

Another healthy option is using raw, organic coconut oil. A lot of people use this when they cook or they put it on their toast. I use this in my smoothies and in desserts. Coconut oil actually helps to pull cholesterol out of your body. It also helps to stabilize your blood sugar and your energy. Its also good for your skin and hormones levels and actually helps you to lose weight.

Another option for vegetarians who need some extra protein is sunflower and pumpkin seeds. They are very versatile as you can add them to your salad, your smoothies and I also blend them up and use them as the meat in my burritos. These are easy to digest and they are very high in protein and zinc and have healthy oils for you. Your body is going to love you if you eat these!

These are just a couple of the items that Ive included on my list of 10 foods not to eat.

Bodyweight exercise training is a cheap, fast, and effective way to burn fat without cardio exercise. You really dont need to go to a gym if you want to lose weight, burn belly fat, and get a flat stomach.

You know why? Because the truth is that diet is the most important part of fat loss, and as long as you have a good diet and you are eating fewer calories than you need, youll be able to lose weight and burn belly fat with almost any program.

But in todays crazy economy, most folks dont have the money to join a gym or get a personal trainer or have a treadmill at home, so we have to find cheaper and even FREE ways to burn belly fat.

So I want to give you this seven exercise bodyweight circuit that really targets the body for fat loss. We dont need any fancy equipment, and you can do this in the comfort of your own home, anytime of the day. You could also do it while traveling.

Below is an outline of the seven-exercise circuit:

1)Jumping Jacks
2)Y-squat
3)Spiderman Push-up
4)Reverse Lunge
5)Plank-to-Push-up
6)Prisoner Siff Squat
7)Cross Body Mountain Climber

For each of these exercises you will want to perform 8-12 repetitions and if you are really strong and fit, then you could even do as many at 15 repetitions. Go through the circuit with no rest between exercises. Once completing the circuit, rest for 1 minute and then repeat the circuit up to 3 times in total.
