Eating Right Can Help You Burn Fat – Faster and Easier Than Ever Before

Yes, it is obvious that you need to eat right if you want to lose weight.  There are actually a lot of different strategies to eating right.  Some may not work so great for you and others will work amazingly well. 

The key with trying different diet and weight loss strategies is to give them an honest try.  Following a weight loss strategy for just 3 days is not giving it an honest 100% try. 

Stick with something for 3-4 weeks and then evaluate it to see whether it is right for you.  If it works then keep going with it and maybe even tweak it to try and make it even more powerful for you.  If it isn't helping you burn the fat you want to lose then scrap it and try another strategy.  Just make sure you try it for 3-4 weeks before scrapping it.

The Holy Grail? Monty Python This Is Not

The Holy GrailBurn the Fat legend Tom Venuto is pulling out all the stops on this one: His latest creation is called — GET THIS! — The Holy Freaking Grail, and it goes on sale tomorrow.

Yeah, you got that right. I added in the "Freaking" part. But if you start using this program, which is designed to cut fat and build muscle all at the same time, then you'll start freaking growing huge and getting ripped!

And who doesn't want that?

I don't know how he stumbled onto this method, but it is crazy how effective it is. I tried this one out quite a few months ago and saw some good results. Now, I'll be honest with you, I didn't stick to it for long (I really just like to eat constantly throughout the day), but in 3 weeks time I lost some weight and got stronger.

In short, I leaned out and built some quality muscle, all in just a few short weeks.

You can do this, too.

Check out The Holy Grail here. Goes live tomorrow. Get in line.

All Protein Powders Are Not the Same

I just sent this special notice to my subscribers. You may be interested, too.
 

 
Prograde ProteinI know some people think that protein is just protein. But that's like saying there's no difference between a Ford Pinto and a Rolls Royce.

Quality is quality and junk is junk.

No offense to Ford Pinto owners ;-)

Yet another thing I love about my partners over at Prograde Nutrition is the fact they are more than willing to PROVE the quality you find in their products.

Here's no holds barred PROOF that protein powder is NOT just protein powder.

Have you ever heard of lactase? It's a unique ingredient used by Prograde in their protein powder. This quick Q&A on lactase explains why it's so important and why it makes such a difference in quality.

Now, on to the serious news…

You may have seen some reports about some name brand protein powders being tested for heavy metals a few months ago. Well, Prograde Protein passed all tests with flying colors. And not only that, they came right out and explained the test results and why there was such a big fuss.

I'm not kidding around, if you use protein powders at all you need to educate yourself on this:

Bottom line: when it comes to supplements, you get what you pay for.

And that's why I have partnered with Prograde Nutrition to bring you the best.

Yours in health,

The Importance of Proper Hydration

Guest post by Paul Atkins

The Importance of Proper HydrationNo matter how intense your workout may be, more than likely before, during, and especially after that workout you are going to drink something to rehydrate and replenish that worn out exhausted body. The question then is what are you going to drink?? For the past decade the rise of energy drinks could be described as nothing short of miraculous meteoric rise. Since the days of the mighty Gatorade there has come to the marketplace almost every conceivable color, flavor, and ingredient driven high energy after workout drink.

However, after intense blitzkrieg style advertisements from the television to radio to almost every magazine on earth that has anything to do with fitness many people have started to back away from these so called after workout drinks. If you ask yourself why, the answer is simple and the nutrition label on those energy drinks is the answer. To rattle off just a few of those ingredients words like "horny goat weed", "high fructose corn syrup", and the ever infamous "yellow number 5" are more often than not present in many so called energy drinks.

After analysis and research it seems to be a fitness renaissance going on out there of like minded healthy people that are putting the watermelon berry flavored drinks down and in turn picking up nature's oldest and most trusted hydration drink — Water. Yes water good old fashioned H2O is making a mighty come back on the world scene of fitness and weight loss. Granted there are varying degrees of water from mineral water to sparkling, but the principle idea of H2O is always the same, no added ridiculous named flavors, colors or roots to trick me into thinking I will turn into superman overnight.

As this renaissance of returning to origin continues though many have begun to do extensive studies and research into what types of water should be ingested and have come to the conclusion that not all two parts hydrogen and one part oxygen is the same. No, much of the water that is consumed from bottles distributed to most super markets and grocery store chains has gone through much and lost many of the natural properties it once had. One of the major properties that water needs to keep is the PH balance of the water. For those that are not aware, the PH scale runs from 0 to 14 with a PH of 7 being neutral, neither acidic nor alkaline. You could say that perfect water should be a ph of 7 because this is where it is on the PH scale if you were to go to a melting glacier in Alaska and test that water.

Through the process of reverse osmosis, bottling in plastics, shipping, temperature shifts and sitting on a shelf for weeks most bottled water loses its original neutral ph balance and becomes acidic, therefore becoming almost as useless as all of those energy drinks. This may sound like a conundrum but it is not. With a little research you will find that PH balanced alkaline water is actually easier to come by than you think and is exactly what your body needs for real, proper hydration after a long intense workout.
