So, many people are confused on how to be fit and healthy! When a person makes the decision to get fit and healthy, what is the first thing they do?... Go and get a gym membership and start killing themselves with tons of cardio, right? WRONG MOVE! The first thing a person should focus on is what they are putting in their mouths. Portions and Frequency is the key! Food is not the enemy! We all have to have food to live and it is what our bodies crave to be healthy and strong, THAT'S WHY WE CRAVE IT. It starts with nutrition first and foremost. The gym and supplements are just extra steps a person can do to enhance the body.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE BODY IS DEPRIVED?
When the body is restricted and in some cases completely deprived of calories and nutrition, the body can only use fat stores as energy for so long; it needs more to function! So, at this point, the body has no choice but to go into survival mode and start burning muscle (catabolic state) because muscle is so full of the nutrients and aminos it needs to survive. This is one of the biggest mistakes dieters make! If, by just realizing and adjusting the frequency and portions of food eaten you can stop the yo-yo dieting and never ending dieting cycle and finally become a fat burning machine instead of a MUSCLE BURNING machine!
ONE QUESTION I GET A LOT:
What is the best exercise I can do to get rid of my mid-section or love handles?
ANSWER: NONE! Again, what you do in the gym is secondary! Nutrition is number one!
I can't stress enough that frequency and portions are the key and once that is under control, it is amazing how fast the results come.
EXACT STEPS TO GETTING INTO SHAPE:
If you follow these steps in this order you will be one healthy and happy person!
I suggest mastering one step at a time. Once you master the first step, then add the second one and so on...
1. LEARN FOOD PORTION SIZE AND FREQUENCY / DRINK AT LEAST 1/2 GALLON OF WATER A DAY 2. RESISTANCE TRAINING 2 TO 3 TIMES A WEEK/ TRAIN A DIFFERENT BODYPART EACH TIME 3. CARDIO 20-30 MINUTES OF MEDIUM INTENSITY CARDIO 5 TO 6 TIMES A WEEK 4. SUPPLEMENTATION (VITAMINS AND MINERALS KRE-ALKALYN(men)/ KRE-A-FEM (woman) TO HELP MAINTAIN MUSCLE WHILE LOSING FAT AND AMINO ACIDS FOR RECOVERY)
