We have all seen them. I call them Gym fly’s. The guys that hang around the gym and do more talking than working out. They have the latest workout clothes, and are sipping on their carbohydrate and protein loaded fitness drink while they work their jaws. They LOOK the part, but in reality, they are simply LOOKING. Their target? Women.

From my experience, most women are at the gym to do one thing: workout. They are not interested in meeting guys and they are not impressed by how much weight you can throw overhead or how cool your arms look in your wife beater. The problem is, gym fly’s don’t get this. They often hover around these ladies ready to offer their “advice” to the “helpless woman.” Well ladies, listen up. Here are a few tips to help you keep these BUGS away from you and help you concentrate on getting a serious workout!

1. Knowledge is power…use it! – Many guys love to go up to women to give them advice on their lifting technique or workout in general. First of all, if ANYONE is going to put themselves out there in this way, you MUST be tactful…most of these guys AREN’T. Secondly, the fact is, a lot of their advice is often flat out WRONG. Women, if you do your homework and brush up on both your workout knowledge and technique, you will put THEM in their place. Trust me, they will leave you alone.

2. When in doubt, bring a friend – Working out with a partner will not only help keep your workouts focused and safe, it will also help keep the unwanted gym fly’s at bay. People who are together are less likely to be bothered when working out

3. Crank up the music – I like to listen to music when I workout personally. Rather than dealing with whatever is pumped through the speakers at the gym, I like to pop in the ear buds of my iPod. If you are there to concentrate on getting in shape, not socializing, then listening to music or audio books via earphones will surely let others know you mean business. Anyone who decides to interrupt you had better have a good reason as the simple fact that you will have to stop and pull out your earphones will deter many from even bothering.

4. Don’t go to the gym – Wait a second, don’t go to the gym? Yes, I said it. See, the mere fact that there are so many distractions at gyms makes working out at a gym not an option for a growing contingent of fitness buffs. This is not to say DON’T WORKOUT, but instead, workout outside of gyms at a boot camp style class. Obviously, you won’t have to deal with the aforementioned gymflys, nor any of the other interruptions and distractions that keep you from what you really want to do…get in shape! Outdoor workouts are a great alternative and if you take some time to learn a little about all the ways you can get in shape just using your own bodyweight, you may decide to stay away from the gym altogether.

Hello and welcome to the Mr. Fat Loss blog!

This has been something I’ve wanted to do for awhile and with everybody  coming into the marketplace with a variety of fat loss products that promise the stars and the moon, plus make you look fabulous…I thought a personal guide to assist you would be a good idea!

The main reason is that I want to help you with sorting out some of the fluff and provide some direction for you while  you look for the right fat loss program that’ll help you.

After 32 years of personal experience with exercise, fitness and health…I still look for the “new” the better, the faster or best fat loss program.

Its very hard and determining the “best or right” program can be challenge when all the information is sounding pretty much the same, just a different person or company promoting the next “magic bullet.”

I’d like to provide you with as many resources available so you can look for yourself and measure the claims made by each of the experts on the marketplace. Along with the ones I feel are important to include when putting together and building effective fat loss programs.

I’ll also be very blunt in many cases, not to offend , but to shake some of you up that have been saying you are “trying, thinking about or should” do something or that “it’s too hard to change” a bit more than “doing” what you should be doing to accomplish healthy fat loss as your goal.

In my mind, over all improved mental and physical health should be the goal of everyone on the planet…actually, to be the best human being you can. But, without making this a political forum or blog, instead comments focused on important fitness and health related topics will be welcome and appreciated with fat loss more as a side benefit of healthy lifestyle changes.

I also will have people from around the globe looking at the information here with the translator bar in all dialects available…so welcome visitors! Along with that there are a few sections you may want to explore which contain elements you might not currently have employed in your own fat loss programs.

These individuals in my professional opinion are some of the best in the world and will offer you a lot of information so that you can judge their abilities for yourself before going any further.

In addition, there will be variety of teleseminars, videos, articles and Q & A opportunity with so much new information related to any and all areas regarding fat loss strategies…with fantastic, thought provoking content.

Although it seems that each year new ideas come out about the best or fastest method for fat loss…human beings have not changed physically in a long time and unlike technology, do not adapt or evolve as quick.

Same stuff that got people lean a hundred years ago, still works today…hard, purposeful work.

That being said, you will not find a short cut method here, nor will I endorse it, but just common sense approaches to an age old desire…lean muscle.

Thank you for stopping by,

Mr. Fat Loss

Facts about Bodyweight Calisthenics for Cardio Workout

Generally, the pictures that do come to your mind when you hear about cardio exercises are sustained repetitive and steady exercises like jogging, cycling or swimming, and so on, that sometimes prove to be exceedingly boring. These necessarily tend to work your body in the correct target zone of your heart. But there are some drawbacks present here as well!

Why Calisthenics?

Some experts suggest that doing the same exercises repeatedly has a negative side effect. It makes cardio workouts very specific as to what it results in. Your body gets accustomed to a repetitive and very specific action that can cause strains from the same movement over and over again.

The other factor is the typical plane of action or the single direction the body moves in while performing a basic type of cardio condition. The typical cardio program that is machine based or sagitially plane based only trains it to become efficient in that typical plane of movement, while various athletic sports require our bodies become conditioned in multiple planes to prevent injury as we move in brand new ways due to our sport.

An example of this is even when you exercise on the treadmill regularly for half an hour (which is just great) you can still get tired very easily if you need to play a game of soccer. This is where calisthenics come in.

Bodyweight calisthenics can also create the same effects as any other cardio exercises. A giant circuit of body weight exercises like Naked Commando is a good example of calisthenics for cardio workouts. These exercises can very efficiently increase the heart and the lung rates as well, resulting in similar physical advantages provided by the usual cardiovascular exercises that are more commonly known to us.

Is It Better Than The Other Cardio Workouts?

Many experts suggest that calisthenics workouts can prove to be better as they provide a complete set of exercises for the whole body. They enhance all the muscles in our body as compared to the few specific muscles that can be developed by the other cardio workouts, like the treadmill or the elliptical machines.

Moreover, calisthenics include movements that make the muscles work more closely simulating the day to day movements required by the body in work and play. These movement patterns may resemble some sport or your work related actions. This makes you better suited for your daily work routine and also results in better heart, lung, total body muscle strength plus the vital stability and balance that get a shot at being trained all at the same time!

A plus point of these calisthenics workouts is that they are much more interesting compared to the other cardio exercises which sometimes seem to appear exceedingly boring.

Therefore it’s very possible for you that calisthenics workouts can enhance the endurance and capability of your body to carry out a multitude of physical tasks much more efficiently, reducing fatigue and imparting a strengthened immune system of your body. On top of that it provides a complete total body workout involving all the muscles in your body, resulting in better cardiovascular health, helping you to live a fitter and more energetic life.
