Increase Metabolism Naturally!
Increase metabolism and you can burn fat much faster and easier!
What is metabolism? Everyday you have been hearing about this word metabolism. It’s on health channels, fitness magazines, health articles everywhere and also discussion among friends. But what actually is metabolism and how can it really contribute to fat loss?
Definition of metabolism
Metabolism is a chemical process that occurs in our body in order to maintain life. In a nutshell, this chemical process requires calories. Calories are used to sustain the functions of the body like organs, muscles and stuff like that. If we are able to increase metabolism in our body we can really lose body fat fast because the calories usage by body is higher by not doing anything! The calorie usage comes from the chemical process mentioned.
Back to the equation of weight loss, if calories out are more than calories in, weight loss occurs. So, by increasing metabolism, we can actually increase the calories out without doing additional activities and losing body fat without starving ourselves!
So now we know the advantage of higher metabolism, let analyze some of the ways we can actually jump start and increase metabolism.
Food that speed up metabolism
There are some that you can eat to speed up metabolism. You are what you eat. Your body is a very complex system. You have to feed with proper foods and with the right proportions to make its engine running at tiptop shape. Eating simple carbs and junk food will just send you metabolism crashing down but eating low GI carbs, green tea and coffee will boost your metabolism.
Exercise, the metabolism booster!
One of the best ways to speed up metabolism is through exercising. During exercise, your body is been stressed which results in muscles, tissues, joints, the heart, lungs and such being challenged. Your body will need lots of calories in order to repair them.
More over, the more lean muscle mass you build on your body, the more calories your body will need to keep those muscle. This is another crucial and fantastic way to increase your calorie output!
In conclusion, don’t go for quick slim dieting. Do not try to over exercise and get on a crash diet because you will just ruin your metabolism and you will just regain back any fat loss you enjoyed.

Fat Burning Foods
Increase Your Metabolism And Decrease Your Appetite With This Fat-Burning Food Group
By Tom Venuto, NSCA-CPT, CSCS

There have been countless studies performed on the role of protein in the muscle growth process to try and determine exactly how much protein you should consume to build muscle mass. Recently, several studies have looked at the role that dietary protein plays in helping you lose fat, and more importantly, helping you keep it off!

There have been countless studies performed on the role of protein in the muscle growth process to try and determine exactly how much protein you should consume to build muscle mass. Recently, several studies have looked at the role that dietary protein plays in helping you lose fat, and more importantly, helping you keep it off!
One thing scientists have discovered is that eating lean protein foods is important for regulating body composition because it decreases your appetite.
In a 2003 study reported in the journal, Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition And Metabolic Care (2003; 6(6): 635-638), protein was shown to be more satiating (made you feel fuller) than both carbohydrate and fat both in the short term and the long term.
Eating more lean protein foods has also been proven as an effective strategy to help you burn fat and keep it off because of something called, “dietary thermogenesis” (also known as the thermic effect of food).
In a study published in the British Journal of Nutrition in 2005 (93(2): 281-289), researchers followed a group of 113 overweight subjects after 4 weeks of a very low calorie diet, through a 6 month period of weight maintenance. The subjects were divided into a protein group or a control group. The protein group was simply given an extra 30 grams of protein per day on top of their usual diet.
The researchers found that during weight maintenance, the group with the higher protein intake was less likely to regain the lost weight, and any weight gain in the protein group was lean tissue and not fat. The results were attributed to higher thermic effect and a decrease in appetite.
Although calories will always be the bottom line when it comes to fat loss, studies such as these are confirming what bodybuilders have known for a long time: That calories are not the only factor that can influence your body composition. Your protein intake and your ratios of protein relative to carbohydrate and fat can clearly play a key role in helping you lose fat and keep the fat off.
None of this is news to bodybuilders or to anyone who is already familiar with bodybuilding-style nutrition programs such as Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle. But it’s interesting that such positive results were achieved in studies where protein was increased so conservatively - as little as 30 additional grams of protein per day or a 20% increase above traditional protein recommendations.
Many bodybuilding-style diets (such as Burn The Fat and Body For Life) call for as much as 30%-40% of the total daily calories from protein and some competitive bodybuilders crank up the protein (temporarily) to as much as 50% before competitions.
I’m curious to see if any research is ever conducted with these more aggressive protein intakes. If so, my guess is that we will find once again, that the bodybuilders are ahead of the science when it comes to the manipulation of diet for improving body composition.
The take home lesson is simple: If you remove some carbs and put in some protein - nothing too radical; even as little as trading 30 grams per day of carbs for 30 grams of lean protein - this small change in your diet may decrease your appetite, decrease your body fat and help you keep the fat off after you lose it.

What are safe and effective weightloss diets
Weightloss diets are a dime a dozen now days and choosing the right one is proving to ultimately difficult. This is because you have to be comfortable with the food that is required to consume, the structure of the diet and the availability of the food, not to mention you budget.
Most important of all, getting on the right diet means that the diet does not require you to do crash dieting or over consuming certain food groups.

Most important of all, getting on the right diet means that the diet does not require you to do crash dieting or over consuming certain food groups. Weightloss diets should be backed up by science and also testimonials. This will at least ensure its effectiveness and also whether the weightloss diet is safe or not.
You should avoid weightloss diets that cause you to starve. This is because when you starve, your metabolism shuts down and this makes losing weight even more difficult. Yes, you can lose a lot of weight initially, but then as days goes by; the weightloss will be slower and slower. End of the day, you will mentally break down and binge! When that happens, the rebound effect will be shocking!
Good weightloss diets require you to lower down your calories slowly. Usually it’s between around 200-400 calories per day. That is quite enough actually. Remember, when calories in is lesser than calories out, you will lose weight. The whole idea of reducing the calories slowly is to let your body adjust to the adjustment, and also this technique will allow you to adapt to the lifestyle change.

Get on healthy and safe weightloss diets like the “Burn The Fat Feed The Muscle System”. It is created by renowned weight loss pro Tom Venuto. With proper and professional guidance, you can definitely lose those stubborn fat and get the dream body that you wanted.

Searching for some delicious foods that promote weight loss ?
You can just cant beat nature. The best way to lose weight is to consume fewer calories than you expend. That means, calories in must be lower than calories out.
But, some experts in the fine field of nutrition have found out that by eating certain foods, you can actually lose weight faster, even without dieting or exercising. Isn’t that fabulous! But the problem is that many us tend to dress up these fine foods with loads of dressings like cheese, sour cream, butter, sauce and many other calorie dense dressings.
These foods that promote weight loss will be come foods that promote fat gain! The weight loss effect will be totally gone and in fact, it will be so dense of calories that it will make you out on a few pounds too!
Yes, yes, it’s very difficult to eat certain foods without dressing and cream. But with the will power of the mind and the sight of your weight loss goals, I am sure you can do. Have a mindset of eating food for fuel for the body rather for the taste.
Have you heard of negative calorie foods? Well, basically, negative calorie foods are foods that promote weight loss! It has some slimming effect. Take carrots for example. Carrot eaten as it is will cause the body to use more calories for digesting it and other foods and this can have the slimming effect.
The slimming effect comes from the energy spent by the body for digesting the negative calorie foods and also by the increased metabolism that these foods create. The term “ negative calorie” does not mean that the food have less than zero calories.
Here is a partial list of foods that promote weight loss: apples, cranberries, grapefruit, lemon mango, oranges, pineapple, raspberries, strawberries, tangerines, asparagus, beets, cabbage (green), carrots, cauliflower, hot Chile peppers, cucumbers, endives, garden cress, garlic, green beans, lettuce, onion, papaya, radishes, spinach, turnips and zucchini. There are more and you can learn about them from a medical doctor’s very popular book.
In his book, Foods that Cause You to Lose Weight, Dr. Neal Barnard explains the effects these foods that promote weight loss have on the body. A quote from Dr. Barnard’s book reveals some startling facts, "They found that those who ate foods that were very low in fat and high in carbohydrates, lost weight steadily, without limiting how much they ate. But those on high-fat diets could not effectively lose weight even if they ate skimpy portions." Dr. Barnard is referring to the published results of an experiment conducted at Cornell University and published in the May 1991 edition of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
A book reviewer posted on a website how he lost 30 lbs. utilizing the information from Dr Barnard’s book. It is important to exercise caution when dieting because there are certain things that your body needs to remain healthy including proteins, fats, vitamins, minerals and other nutrients that are necessary for the body to function at its optimum level. You cannot remain optimally healthy by eating the negative calorie foods alone.

And I am not kidding!

Healthy Weight Loss Plans: Cycle it!
Healthy weight loss plans need to have a strategy! That’s right, before you even start thinking about starting a weight loss plan; you have to strategies your approach! First thing first, set your goal. A healthy weight loss goal should be a reasonable one but for most people, the ideal weight is usually an unreasonable one.
Years of dieting or being overweight have the physiological effect of moving the body's concept of the 'ideal weight' from what is truly considered ideal. The 'set point' is the weight at which your body naturally feels most comfortable.
If you've been overweight for a very long time, or if you've consistently 'yo-yoed', your body may respond to your initial weight loss by lowering its metabolism because it believes that you are starving to death. This slowing leads to weight loss plateaus that often cause people to fail in their diet plans, and lead to regaining all or most of the weight loss.
In your healthy weight loss plans, experts recommend aiming for shorter-term attainable goals. Since the bulk of diet research shows that most dieters lose weight steadily for about 12 weeks, then hit a weight loss plateau, that's the number that they suggest you aim for.
The strategy that many have found works best for them is one of alternating periods of weight loss and maintenance, each lasting 8-12 weeks.
For healthy weight loss plans, its recommended that for the 8-12 weeks period, aim for a weight loss rate of 1-2 pounds per week, 30 pounds in three months is crazy and unreasonable. Diet until the goal is reached or for 12 weeks, and then switch to a maintenance diet.
The whole purpose of switching diets in healthy weight loss plans is to give you a breather, a rest from restrictive dieting. The other part, though, is that you're re-educating your body and letting it establish a new 'set point'.
When the new weight is maintained for 8-12 weeks, another weight loss goals are required and then hop back in the weight loss mode. This is what healthy weight loss plans should be, not stale and stagnant!
By switching the dieting modes, the body is prevented from “ starvation”; your body now can lose even more weight. Not only that, you are given the chance of practicing maintaining your new weight.
Its been found that many dieters cannot maintain their weight loss after getting of the diets, but with maintenance stages integrated and practiced in these healthy weight loss plans, you definitely can lose the weight and keep it off! So make sure you practice these dieting and maintenance stages for good healthy weight loss!

How to lose fat stomach
How to lose fat stomach is not an unanswerable question after all!
Losing a fat belly is not really that difficult but it is not easy either. I know some people who tried to lose some inches around the waist but still fail. But there are also people that can get a flat stomach within months. The fact is that to lose a fat stomach, you need to know the science behind it.
Its not just by doing thousands of crunches and you can get nice lean abs, but it’s a healthful combination of cardio, dieting and exercise that will get you that lean abs that you have always wanted.
Don’t get scared now, here is some helpful tips that can help you get a six-pack faster.
How to lose fat stomach tip 1
Eat more protein and reduce the carbohydrate intake. By reducing the amount of carbohydrate intake and by increasing your lean protein consumption, you can really boost your fat burning capabilities.
You see, carbohydrate tend to increase your insulin level, which can slow down your metabolism. Since the body can only metabolize just so much carbohydrates at once, the rest is converted to sugar and then turned into body fat.
Of course, increasing your protein doesn't mean overeating. Just have 3-4 oz of lean protein with every meal… yes, even breakfast… and eat the protein first. This kicks your metabolism up a few notches as your body must work harder and expend more energy to digest protein. Throw in an extra helping of vegetables to add more fiber and moisture to your digestive process, and that should keep things moving along nicely. This is the first step to quick weight loss around your belly.
How to lose fat stomach tip 2
Don’t drink alcohol too much. Yeah, its something very hard to do since downing that cool beer seems to be everybody’s favorite pastime. But trust me, it will really create a big difference in your waistline.
While alcohol provides no nutrients whatsoever, each gram of alcohol contains 7 calories. And 100% of the calories you consume through alcohol is stored as fat! That means every alcoholic beverage you consume-- whether it's a few drinks per day or a few drinks per week-- is converted to fat, usually around the belly.
Now, you don't have to give up all libations in order to bust your belly fat, but cutting back to just one or two drinks a couple of times a week will pay huge dividends to your belly fat busting account.
How to lose fat stomach tip 3
You are what you eat. If you eat a lot of junk food, you most probably end up looking like one. Eat your favorite junk food as though as they cost a thousand dollars!
That means pick one salty junk food item, and one sweet junk food item to keep in your house. The rest of that junk food will simply have to go. Then give yourself only one meal per week during which you will eat a small amount of your chosen salty snack food, and one meal per week for your sweet snack food.
Here's an example. Once a week for dinner I give myself a large extra cheese pizza, chocolate milk shake and lots of potato chips.
I have my fatty, snack-food every week, yet it doesn't explode up my stomach. Why? Well, for one thing, I set the amount of this snack-food to a moderate level.
My weekly sweet snack is a large pancake and ice cream on Saturday mornings. I have it along with 3 strips of turkey bacon and a scrambled egg. Of course, it could be anything sweet that you enjoy. A slice of apple pie a la mode, a candy bar… you name it.
But again, eat it only once a week with a specific meal, and in moderation. Have your sweet snack as dessert at the end of a high protein meal that includes high-grade catabolic vegetables such as Broccoli, carrots, spinach, sweet potato, zucchini, or tomatoes.
| | Since your metabolism increases 30% above it's resting level to burn protein… and the catabolic foods burn up their own calories as well as some of the calories from any other food you eat along with it… there's a good chance most of the calories from your moderate junk-food snack will be burned while your body is digesting the protein & catabolic foods that make up the bulk of your meal. |
Having a cheat food snack only two times per week with a specific meal, will play a major role in busting your belly fat and trimming inches from your waistline. Not only that, it will really give your mental strength a break.
How to lose fat stomach tip 4
Exercise is another way to burn belly fat. This does not mean doing thousand of crunches, trust me; it will get you nowhere. You have to do a complete combination of cardio and weight training. As mentioned, I have seen people going on a strict diet and not lose anything but their muscle. At the end of the day, they just put back on the weight.
The best way is to get on a weight-training program that is geared towards losing body fat. On of the best weight loss program that I have seen is Metabolic Surge weight loss program. It’s very comprehensive and it’s suitable for beginners and experts.
Weight training is really important because weight training can help you increase your metabolism. By increasing your metabolism, you can burn loads of calories by just sitting and doing your daily activities.
How to lose fat stomach tip 5
Do your cardio and mix it up. Don’t get tied to the gym only. You can do your cardio outdoors as well. For example, for week 1 you can do your treadmill indoors, for week 2 you can do swimming and for week 3 you can play favorite sports. Just make sure you fit in 4-5, 30-45 minutes cardio sessions in a week.
How to lose fat stomach tip 6
Take some fat burning supplements. Please, do not take banned supplements like ephedrine or steroids but choose fat burners from well-known companies or natural weight loss supplements. Natural weight loss supplements can help you burn fat by supplying you herbs take can increase your metabolism. One of the best natural weight loss supplements is Pro Shape RX.

Beginner Weight Training Program
Best Beginner Weight Training Program
Beginner weight training program
Choosing a beginner weight training program is indeed very difficult. This because that is so many weight training programs out there to choose from. There are many different gurus that preach different things and different training methods and some really do not know what they are teaching.
I too have this same dilemma when I first started weight training. I was such a newbie that I do not know which weight training that I should follow. Some say that I should concentrate on machines and some weight training experts say that I should not waste my time and just fully concentrate on hardcore free weights only.
It did not stop there. There were arguments on beginner weight training program on how many reps should a beginner do and of course how many sets for best results. To be honest, I was very confused and did not know whose advice to follow. Basically if I go to gym A, I would follow instructors A’s advice and if I go to gym B, I would follow trainer B’s advice. It’s really confusing. Choosing a beginner weight-training program is not only the problem, choosing the right diet advice is also another problem. There were people telling me that eating 1 gram of protein per body weight is the best and there is another that recommend 2 grams instead.
I thought that enough is enough and I started looking in the Internet for the best beginner weight training program that I can get my hands on. The Internet is also flooded with all sorts of weight training program but one particular one really caught my eye. Its called “ Burn the fat feed the muscle system” by Tom Venuto. One thing that I really liked about the program is that it focuses on natural bodybuilding. He does not preach on steroids and other bad chemical quick slim diet pills. His training method is all based on science and it makes sense and helps me understand weight training so much better because science really clarifies all myths.
I don’t want to wasting my time and injuring my self by following rubbish beginner weight training program. His body also tells it all! After 3 months of using his muscle system, I began to feel the results and I used his weight training system and shared it with my bodybuilding coach. It really produced results for me and I loved it.
His diet system and feed the muscle concept also helped me shed of pounds of fat without drugs. The muscle system emphasizes on what the body really needs and feeding it to obtain maximum results!
Tom Venuto at his prime! Look at that body!
For anybody that is looking for a beginner weight training program, I would really recommend, “ Burn the fat feed the muscle system”. It’s a choice that you would not regret. Start your weight training program on the right track to speed up results and avoid injuries!

Skipping For Weight Loss
Why rope skipping?
People looking to lose weight are always interested in exercising. It’s practically inevitable: if you’re trying to get rid of that spare tire, sooner or later you are going to have to start doing some exercises in order to burn off the extra calories.
While taking herbal pills, such as the excellent ProShaperx, to start the weight loss process is a good idea; calories will still refuse to burn themselves off. This means that some effort is required on your part.
Most people go to gyms or start running in the park. These are good options. Gyms always have professional trainers on hand that can help a beginner to plan his routines and can recommend exercises. Running in the park, on the other hand, is a fine way to build stamina and keep the cardiovascular system in shape. And so are rope skipping, jogging and bicycle riding. Whereas going to the gym costs money, cardiovascular training is cheap. I was going to say that cardio is free, but you still have to buy a bike, some sport clothes or a skipping rope.
Rope skipping is something everybody can do in their spare time. It’s a simple and fun exercise and once you got the hand of it, you’re bound to like it. People who’ve never skipped a rope tend to say: “That looks like a complex exercise. What if my feet get tangled I that rope?”. Believe me, it’s not complicated at all. If you can pop a ProShaperx pill in your mouth, then you can certainly skip the rope. It doesn’t take any brains at all, just a bit of muscular coordination.
The numbers don’t lie. Rope skipping for ten minutes is the equivalent of running a mile in eight minutes. So, if you think the park is too far or too populated with unsavory characters, you can skip the rope in your home or backyard. Thirty minutes of this type of exercise are as good for your heart and weight loss effort as running a couple of miles. One hour of rope skipping will rid you of 1,300, which is not bad at all for something that only requires a piece of rope and some free time.
Rope skipping also does a better job protecting your joints. It certainly is easier on the knee joints than running because both legs handle the impact of each jump, simultaneously. And unlike jogging, jumping rope is also good for your arms. The shoulders get a really good workout from keeping that rope in motion. It’s no wonder boxers and wrestlers do a lot of rope skipping, since it works wonders for their footwork while at the same time helping them stay in shape.
So, to wrap it up, rope skipping is a fun and efficient way of losing weight. Combine it with other exercises that can be performed at home and make sure you get at least 30 minutes of workout per day. Taking ProShaperx is a very good idea, but the pills cannot help people who don’t watch their food intake and refuse to exercise. If you keep a positive outlook, exercise and stay off fast food and sodas, results won’t be long coming.
Combine rope skipping with this awesome weight-training program for surefire weight loss!

Cause Of Bloating
Eliminate Stomach Bloating And Get A Leaner Abs By Identifying The Cause Of Bloating
What’s the cause of bloating? Well, its actually sulphur-bearing gases that stretch the abdomen wall and passes it comfortable elastic limit. This will make you feel bloated and sometimes causes discomfort and pain. Well, there is no reason to be alarmed; you can get rid of these bloating scenarios if we just find out what really causes bloating.
Bloating is also sometimes caused by age. This is probably due to the fact that our bodies produce less lactase as we age. Lactase is the enzyme responsible for the digestion of lactose. With reduced formation of lactase, undigested lactose ferments will form gases and when these gases are trapped in the stomach, it will make your stomach bloat. Hence, the lack of lactase production in our bodies is also another cause of bloating.
Since lactose intolerant is one of the causes of bloating, one should consider avoiding dairy foods because dairy foods contain lots of lactose. Choose non-lactose milk instead if you need dairy to supply your calcium intake.
If you suddenly increase your intake of vegetables, the fiber from those vegetables can also cause bloating in the stomach. Do not suddenly increase your intake of vegetables, fruits and beans. These are great foods but increase your consumption slowly and regularly. Remember, too much of a good thing will make it bad. Similarly, consuming too much beans and protein will also make your stomach bloat.
One more culprit of stomach bloating is taking too much carbonated drinks. There is a lot of gas in these drinks and this will make you bloated easily. Drink plain water instead. Plain water has no calories and can hydrate you effectively.
Following some of the above tips can reduce stomach bloating.

New Updates for women fitness!
Weight Training Program For Women
Weight training program for women does not really differ far from men weight training program. Many women and even men, including male personal trainers thought that weight training for women have to be really different like doing high repetitions, light weights and using machines instead of hardcore free weights.
That entire concept is wrong. There is nothing wrong with women using lightweights and high repetitions, but it’s definitely wrong that women avoid heavy hardcore free weights.

Weight Loss Stretch Marks
Weight Loss Stretch Marks
Weight loss stretch marks is one of the most common problems faced by individuals that have been overweight for a long period of time and then followed by a sudden weight loss. Pregnant women also have these problems. Having stretch marks is very frustrating because you can’t show off your body after your major weight loss success!
What actually causes these stretch marks?
Stretch marks are caused by over stretching of the skin, which disturbs the production of collagen resulting in a depressed white scar. It usually starts out as red lines and then later on to white. It usually occurs in the areas, which stores the fat most, for men are the chest and abdomen, and for women, abdomen, and thighs and sometimes at the triceps.
Weight loss stretch marks usually happen when weight loss is too fast which results in not giving enough time for the body to slowly adjust to the changes in the body. Quite often you see some guys with a very nice built but then the physique is slightly crippled by those stretch marks.
The problem is that these weight loss stretch marks is very difficult to get rid of. It doesn’t mean that if you do one thousand abs crunches, you can lose stretch marks in your abdomen. Stretch marks are actually caused by broken connection fibers within the skin and further exercising it cannot eliminate it.
The treatment is usually by surgery but it should always be the last resort. Some people have reduced the appearance of the weight loss stretch marks by sunbathing.
Here are some more tips on reducing weight loss stretch marks

Steps to lose belly fat
Looking for steps to lose belly fat? Well, here are some tips and tricks that you can use to lose that gut. Not everyone wants a washboard abs but if you just want to trim down some inches around the waist and get a flatter stomach, these tips can help you.
Belly fat seems to be a huge problem for lots of people, especially men. Naturally, men tend to hold more fat around their waist line, which we call love handles. Besides the biologically nature of men, modern lifestyle also have a huge impact on this. Work, stress, entertaining clients and lack of exercise contribute to the accumulation of belly fat.
Well, lets not get into the cause of obesity and weight gain but rather focus on some solutions that you can take to lose belly fat.
Lose belly fat step 1
Decrease that alcohol consumption. I am sure that most people know that alcohol can cause weight gain, but I am certain that they do not know the degree of impact that alcohol can cause. Excess alcohol consumption can really give you that belly. Have you seen people that are slim all over but have a belly sticking out? Well, that is effect of excess alcohol consumption. One gram of alcohol, which is can be calculated as one ml of alcohol contains 7 calories. Even thought the amount of calories is lesser than of fat, alcohol calories are completely useless. Alcohol does not contain any nutrients at all. So, the entire amount of calories consumed through alcohol will be stored as fat!
Alcohol is also in the form of liquid. That means, you can really consume a lot at one sitting! I am not saying that you should avoid alcohol totally, just go for moderation. Do not drink everyday and limit your self to one glass of wine or one bottle of beer.

Cortisol and weight loss
Cortisol And Weight Loss: What is the connection?
When you are reading this article, there is a high chance that you have been told that your have gain weight and the reason for that weight gain is due to cortisol. Well, it’s true that cortisol may affect your weight gain and it may be also some other reasons. Before we make any conclusion, lets take a look a short glimpse on what cortisol is and what roles does it play in our body.
Cortisol is actually a very important hormone in our body that is involved in many functions like the metabolism of glucose, it regulates the blood pressure, release insulin, keeps the immune function at check, and also inflammatory response.
But cortisol is most likely to be tied with stress because it’s the hormone that is also secreted when our body is involved during a flight and fight response. Now, that is a good thing actually, for short term of course. It helps our body to release sugar to provide energy instantly, quick reaction and a sudden burst of energy. These are responses needed when we subjected to stress.

healthy snacks!
healthy snacks
No matter if it is while we are watching television or a quick bite to and from picking the kids up at school, we all love snacks. We can't get away from that fact. So why fight it? Our whole life we have been told that snacking is bad for us. It will ruin our apatite, it will make us fat, it will break us out in pimples. Some of it is true, while on the other hand, it is nothing more than fiction. Snacking performs a very important role in our lives. Some times we snack because we are bored.
We eat because we are bored. That 600 pound man didn't get that way because he was eating three square meals a day. He got that way because he was eating too much food. Our bodies tell us when we are hungry. That doesn't mean that it that all the time we are hungry we need food. But, if you have a good diet it does. There is no reason to cut out snacking all together. Eating healthy snacks is also a great way to avoid things that we do as a pick me up some days. For example, we can eat a piece of fruit instead of going for that cola to get a jolt of energy.
The key thing to do is, to know what to eat and what not to eat. Here we will give you some healthy snacks ideas that will help you choose what is right. It doesn't require a genius to figure it out, but you might be surprised at some of the suggestions. This might sound a bit strange, but I would suggest to you that you get a food dehydrator. You can get one for next to nothing and they are easy to use. I know that learning how to use something new isn't always as easy as it sounds, but believe me, these things are a snap to use.
You can dry all kinds of things in your dehydrator. The key thing to remember is to cut things thin. The thinner the item is cut, the faster they will dry. Fruits are great thing to dry. You can dry what ever is one sale at the super market that you can find. You can also dry canned items. I would suggest that you start out with a few easy things. Start out with strawberries. They are about as easy as you can get.
Not only are strawberries easy, but also when they are dried, they carry a punch of sweetness that only sugar can match. The great thing is, these are sweet, but they don't have the calories of candy. You can also dry veggies as well. Are you like me, do you love the instant soup mixes they sell at the store? Well, I love them but hate all the added salt. If you dry your own veggies, you can make your own soup. What I love is, I can control how much salt I add.
Here is something that I love to do as healthy snacks. I take a handful of banana chips, strawberry chips, and about two apple chips. I take them and put them in some low fat yogurt. That makes for a snack that is good for you and something that I love eating. It doesn't get any better than that. You can snack on the dried food just plain. Grab some fruit chips instead of potato chips or candy. You really can't go wrong with dried fruits as healthy snacks. They will last a very long time if you keep them in a baggie as well.
Fish jerky, turkey jerky and beef jerky can also be used as healthy snacks. I love making jerky because it saves me so much money. I don't have to pay over ten dollars a pound for jerky. I can use what ever cut of meat that is on sale at the store. You can always go with the same boring veggie platter for a snack. I do love my veggies, but this can get a bit boring at times. That is why I love the dried fruits and veggies as healthy snacks.
A great veggie plate can be made up of any type of veggies. I would suggest that you make yours out of what ever is in season. That will produce the best veggie plate that you can. Also try putting a little oil and vinegar dressing on them. Don't use too much, but just enough to taste. Sprinkle salt to taste and also put some pepper or some pepper flakes on them. I love using pepper flakes because it gives the veggies a zing. You can also squeeze half a lemon over them for zing if you like.
You need to make sure that you aren't eating a healthy diet and snacking on foods that aren't good for you. I know tons of people who have a very good diet, but their problem is that they eat all kinds of junk when they snack. This doesn't serve any purpose at all. I'm sure you know people like this as well. Actually, I feel like yelling at them and calling them a moron.
If you must have some carbs, don't do anything stupid. Don't go running for the potato chips. Instead, eat some sliced potatoes and add some seasoning to them. I like to use Cajun seasoning myself. I think that adds the kick that they are lacking since there isn't any fat.
Cheeses are also healthy snacks. But not all cheese. Cottage cheese is a wonderful snack that gives you good quality protein and calcium. Cottage cheese is great healthy snacks because they are low in carbohydrates and they come in cute little tubs where you can carry it around.
Another great healthy snack idea is the small fruit cups that they sell in the stores. Don't get the ones that are in heavy syrup. Heavy syrup is a nice way of saying loaded with sugar. Also some of the pudding cups aren't too bad either. They also have yogurt cups these days too. They are good, especially if you get the ones with the fruit on the bottom. There you have it. The next time you feel guilty because you ate the wrong snack food, come back and read this article again. This will help you curve those hunger cravings and allow you to snack without the guilt.

Best oblique exercise !
The best oblique exercise that you can do in the gym with a cable is the seated torso rotation, seating on a fitball.
“ How about those exercise where people carry heavy dumbbells and lift side to side?”
No, they do not work as well as rotation movements. Lateral movements of the trunk like bending side to side, will only work the external oblique but not the internal ones. More over, hoisting heavy weights for trimming the torso will only end up bulking the torso.
Best oblique exercise is exercises that work the internal and external oblique together. Rotation exercises hit both the internal and external oblique.

List of carbohydrate foods that gave me my six pack!
My List of carbohydrate foods for a six-pack abs
A mini guide list of carbohydrate foods to help make dieting easier.
Dieting is one of the key factors in most weight loss programs. Exercise alone cannot give you a six-pack abs. Of course this depends on the body type you have. If you have high metabolism, dieting would probably be the last thing in you mind. But if you are like most people, who are less blessed, dieting is compulsory.
Carbohydrates are usually labeled as bad in most weight loss diets. But actually, carbohydrates are very important and should not be singled out. Carbohydrates are vital in feeding the muscle with glycogen, are food for the brain and give the body energy. Most people find carbs fattening is because they eat all the wrong carbs and in wrong portions!
Even with a list of carbohydrate foods that consist of low GI carbs, dieters go wrong in portion control and preparation. It’s too often that people do not eat sensibly and go over board with fattening gravy.
To make dieting easier, here is a simple list of carbohydrate foods that are low in GI; high in fiber and these carbs are allowed carbs in your quest for a six-pack abs.
List of carbohydrate foods from home:
Rolled oats with a bit of raisins and low fat milk. The serving size should be around 5-7 tablespoons of oats before cooked. Remember, its rolled oats, not instant oats!
Brown rice served with roasted chicken marinated in paprika. Ok, there are many other ways to serve the chicken but the highlight here is the brown rice. Brown rice is slow to digest and this gives us more energy over time and prevents insulin spikes.
Home baked potato and pasta are very good choices of carbohydrates. But be careful during the preparation of these foods as you can go really over bored with the butter, cheese and salt. Use them sparingly, and spread them thin. Its really easy to go over board with these foods too because they are so delicious! Cook them as clean as possible. The best was to eat pasta is just steam the pasta and eat it with Prego pasta sauce.
Fruits that are good are apples, strawberries, grape fruit, cherries and oranges.
List of carbohydrate foods that you can have outside:
Foods that are prepared in restaurants are usually added with lots extra calories from gravy, oil, butter and stuff like that. There for I prefer to choose sandwiches and salads instead when eating out.
Mini turkey, roast beef or chicken sandwich made with whole meal bread, no butter and no cheese are one of the better choices.
All sorts of salads like ceaser salad and chicken salad but please customize it yourself and minimize the amount of mayonnaise you use.
Add lots of vegetables and beans so that they make the largest portion of your food. Soup made with lentils is also excellent and its power packed with fiber. You can also have tomato soup, all sorts of beans like kidney beans, black beans and Lima beans.
If you are eating potatoes in restaurants and fast foods restaurants, ask the waiter to prepare your potato without butter and reduced oil. If the side dishes are chips or anything that sort, ask them to see whether you can swap it for extra salad or fruits.
Carbohydrates are very important and play a vital role in your diet and fat loss program. You need fuel to burn calories and without carbs, your metabolism will suffer. Just make sure you have the right carbs with the right amount.

Things to avoid when trying to lose weight
Things to avoid when trying to lose weight Trying to lose weight?
Getting on a weight loss program is not easy at all! That is for sure. According to recent statistics, 50 % of individuals who started an exercise program drop out. Exercise programs usually consist of many fitness goals but the hardest one of all is weight loss! The drop out rates will be much higher because its damn tough, but I swear to you, its not impossible. Not impossible at all!
For long-term weight loss, you have to have three key factors, which is
Weight Training
dieting
Cardio Training
Among these 3 key factors, I am going to discuss about the dreaded one of all, dieting!
Dieting is not always easy. In fact, it can prove a tough challenge for many people. So here’s a little guide to avoiding things that could make you lose control and start eating. Avoid them like plague if you wish to succeed.
10 important tips to keep in mind if you want to lose those body fat!
1. If you want to lose weight, don’t rush into the toughest diet you can find. This is a common mistake. Many people decide in a moment of desperation to follow a super-strict diet and fail. Don’t rush into a diet that may be too strict for you. If you don’t have any dieting experience and are not 100 percent sure you can stick with the diet, then choose something else.
2. If you want to lose weight, don’t lose touch with reality. You can’t realistically expect things to happen over night. When choosing your goal, start small, but be prepared to go far. If you hear someone saying that he lost a large number of pounds in a short time, don’t make it your goal to match his performance. Diet results are different from one person to another.
3. If you want to lose weight, don’t go to the gym too often. Another common mistake is to use the enthusiasm of the first days to hit the gym every day. This won’t help you at all. Your body needs time to heal and expand the muscle mass after each training session and going to the gym every day interferes with this natural process. Besides, a week of non-stop training could never offset ten or twenty years of couch potato lifestyle.
4. If you want to lose weight, don’t get hard on calories. We all know that cutting down on calories is one of the building blocks of all diets, but you have to be careful about it. Cut down on too many calories and your body will start storing anything it possibly can. This is not a good way to lose weight.
5. If you want to lose weight, don’t skip meals. Some people think that skipping one or two meals could help them lose weight faster. They don’t understand that dieting is all about eating the right food and not starving yourself.
6. If you want to lose weight, don’t check the bathroom scales everyday. Everybody is eager to see the confirmation of his or her efforts in the shape of lost pounds, but you should not let this drive you to checking your weight everyday. The daily fluctuations of your weight will soon have you depressed and ready to quit dieting. And this is something you want to avoid.
7. If you want to lose weight, don’t let emotions drive you. Aside from the eagerness that drives people to check their weight every day, there are other emotions that influence dieting. If you know you’re used to reaching out for ice cream or snacks when you are bored, frustrated or angry, then you should deal with these issues and not allow them to come between you and your purpose.
8. If you want to lose weight, don’t refuse to seek help.
Not everyone was born with iron will and nerves of steel. If you need advice or help, don’t hesitate to ask it from your friends or from professionals. Don’t try to solve all problems by yourself.
9. If you want to lose weight, don’t deny yourself your favorite foods.
Treats are a great way of raising your willpower and determination. Diets are just food control methods, not prisons. So what if you eat something forbidden once in a while, especially if that food is a favorite of yours? If such treats are not frequent, then they will make no difference in the long run.
10. If you want to lose weight, don’t rely on your willpower alone. Use your head as well. If you wish to know how much you eat, then write everything down and analyze the list for things that should not be there. Sometimes hunger creeps up on you and make you eat something you shouldn’t. Be honest with yourself and keep a clear head.

Things to avoid when trying to lose weight
Things to avoid when trying to lose weight Trying to lose weight?
Getting on a weight loss program is not easy at all! That is for sure. According to recent statistics, 50 % of individuals who started an exercise program drop out. Exercise programs usually consist of many fitness goals but the hardest one of all is weight loss! The drop out rates will be much higher because its damn tough, but I swear to you, its not impossible. Not impossible at all!
For long-term weight loss, you have to have three key factors, which is
Weight Training
dieting
Cardio Training
Among these 3 key factors, I am going to discuss about the dreaded one of all, dieting!
Dieting is not always easy. In fact, it can prove a tough challenge for many people. So here’s a little guide to avoiding things that could make you lose control and start eating. Avoid them like plague if you wish to succeed.
10 important tips to keep in mind if you want to lose those body fat!
1. If you want to lose weight, don’t rush into the toughest diet you can find. This is a common mistake. Many people decide in a moment of desperation to follow a super-strict diet and fail. Don’t rush into a diet that may be too strict for you. If you don’t have any dieting experience and are not 100 percent sure you can stick with the diet, then choose something else.
2. If you want to lose weight, don’t lose touch with reality. You can’t realistically expect things to happen over night. When choosing your goal, start small, but be prepared to go far. If you hear someone saying that he lost a large number of pounds in a short time, don’t make it your goal to match his performance. Diet results are different from one person to another.
3. If you want to lose weight, don’t go to the gym too often. Another common mistake is to use the enthusiasm of the first days to hit the gym every day. This won’t help you at all. Your body needs time to heal and expand the muscle mass after each training session and going to the gym every day interferes with this natural process. Besides, a week of non-stop training could never offset ten or twenty years of couch potato lifestyle.
4. If you want to lose weight, don’t get hard on calories. We all know that cutting down on calories is one of the building blocks of all diets, but you have to be careful about it. Cut down on too many calories and your body will start storing anything it possibly can. This is not a good way to lose weight.
5. If you want to lose weight, don’t skip meals. Some people think that skipping one or two meals could help them lose weight faster. They don’t understand that dieting is all about eating the right food and not starving yourself.
6. If you want to lose weight, don’t check the bathroom scales everyday. Everybody is eager to see the confirmation of his or her efforts in the shape of lost pounds, but you should not let this drive you to checking your weight everyday. The daily fluctuations of your weight will soon have you depressed and ready to quit dieting. And this is something you want to avoid.
7. If you want to lose weight, don’t let emotions drive you. Aside from the eagerness that drives people to check their weight every day, there are other emotions that influence dieting. If you know you’re used to reaching out for ice cream or snacks when you are bored, frustrated or angry, then you should deal with these issues and not allow them to come between you and your purpose.
8. If you want to lose weight, don’t refuse to seek help.
Not everyone was born with iron will and nerves of steel. If you need advice or help, don’t hesitate to ask it from your friends or from professionals. Don’t try to solve all problems by yourself.
9. If you want to lose weight, don’t deny yourself your favorite foods.
Treats are a great way of raising your willpower and determination. Diets are just food control methods, not prisons. So what if you eat something forbidden once in a while, especially if that food is a favorite of yours? If such treats are not frequent, then they will make no difference in the long run.
10. If you want to lose weight, don’t rely on your willpower alone. Use your head as well. If you wish to know how much you eat, then write everything down and analyze the list for things that should not be there. Sometimes hunger creeps up on you and make you eat something you shouldn’t.
