This morning I met a young lady named Paula. Paula started an exercise and diet program 4 weeks ago with her personal trainer Jeff. Paula started the program with 24% body fat and now has 13%...So how did she do it? Can I do what she did and have the same results? Can you do what she did and have the same results? Only you will ever know the answer to that question. But first some facts...
Fact: Muscle burns fat. Build more muscle and you will burn more fat.
Fact: Eating a number of small meals a day is better than 1 or 2 or 3 meals with the same calories and balance because the number of small meals...say 6 or 7, keeps your metabolism higher thus burning more fat.
Fact: Cows don't run and they are fat. Foxes run and they are skinny.
So, how did she do it. Paula did it with discipline, focus and a little know how.
First...She decided to eat a balanced diet. 6-7 small meals a day. When I say small, I mean small... She treated food as an energy source and not a happy past time.
Second...She works out with weights 4 days a week. She is building muscle and we all know that muscle burns fat. ( now...she does not look like the HULK) She is very toned but not bulky.
Third...She spends 1 hour 5 days a week on the treadmill or stairmaster.
Very simple...Not easy but very simple.
With the aging of America, Baby Boomer's have decided to be healthier than their parents.The cocaine to Rogain generation is now looking for the fountain of youth. As a matter of fact, slick marketers have had this figured out for a while. Each day brings a new diet and exercise fad.
Eat Carbs...don't eat carbs...eat protien...don't eat to much protien...only eat fruit...fast 1 day per week...3 days per month...10 days per year.. don't drink coffee...drink coffee..and my favorite...Drink a lot of water...don't drink to much water..
Here's the truth. The best diet and exercise program is the one that you will actually do...but just in case you are in a hurry and don't know where to start...
