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

The SECRET to a Ripped and Super Strong Core: Stabilization

What if you could get your abs in incredible shape and strengthen your core to the max, without ever doing ONE exercise? Believe it or not, you can.

First of all, unless you are brand new to the exercise WORLD, you probably know one simple fact of life about your midsection. Working out your abdominals won’t give you a ripped midsection. Fat is a layer over the abdominal area and until you get rid of that, you could work out on just your abs all day long and still notice a huge difference. Once you get rid of that layer of fat though, you may be left with a flat, but less than exciting set of abs. You see, your abdominals are involved in just about every type of movement you make at least to some degree to you really have to work them to get them to grow and become defined. The good news is, the work you do doesn’t always have to be incredibly intense, but instead, be incredibly consistent and focused. This is where stabilization comes in.

Ok, so, you know how you see folks wearing weight belts when they are lifting or even picking up packages for those that are delivery drivers? Well, most of the time, those belts are useless. Why, you ask? Well, your core IS your weight belt so when you wear one, you are just saying “I will let my body have a break and let this piece of leather do the work.” This is wrong thinking. Our bodies are DESIGNED to protect us; we just have to develop them properly and then use them the right way. Let me give you an example. Let’s say I am going to pick up a heavy package. I could wear a weight belt, but then should I just let my lower back and abs be loose since I have a belt to help with the load? No! By STABILIZING your core, and contracting your abdominals and lower back, you can pick up that weight with no problem and stay safe. That is what your body is DESIGNED to do.
Most people simply have underdeveloped core muscles AND don’t engage them properly when doing physical exercise. The cool thing is, just by engaging these muscles we work them at the same time!

To become an expert with stabilization takes a bit of practice, but it is fairly easy to do. Simply stand up (you can stabilize in any position, but standing up helps focus concentration initially). Now, focus on contracting your abdominal and lower back muscles WHILE breathing normally. It may seem a bit difficult at first, but here’s a little trick. Simply breathe IN through your nose out through clenched teeth so there is a HISSING sound. When you are doing this, push in your abs and you will feel them contract…focus on keeping them tight while breathing in and out.

Now that you are getting the hang of it, practice stabilization no matter WHAT you are doing. Walking down the street, picking up your kids, and of course, lifting weight and doing any type of exercise are just a few examples of how stabilization will support your daily activities. By contracting these muscles, you are forcing blood into them and actually exercising them at the same time. After awhile, you will notice increased definition in this area and your core will tighten immediately with very little thought to make it happen. Guess what? Now you have your OWN built in weight belt! Stabilization really is the secret to a fantastic set of abs and an incredibly functional core. Your core was made to protect this incredibly important area of your body. Make sure to practice this technique and you will stay health, and look much better!

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.
