Compound Exercises
April 23, 2008
Compound exercises produce the most dramatic overall anabolic effect on your entire body and they are superior to isolation movements for at least three reasons.1) They stimulate the most total muscle fiber at one time which means that you can work a wide range of muscles by performing only a small number of exercises. For example, the bench press is an awesome compound movement for the chest, but it also stimulates the shoulders and triceps at the same time.
2) Compound exercises allow you to lift the greatest amount of weight. This will result in a total body “spill over” effect, and will allow you to increase the amount of weight that you lift in your smaller isolation exercises at a quicker pace.
3) They increase anabolic hormone production. Muscles do not grow merely by being directly stimulated with weights. Muscle growth also occurs as your body kicks up its production of anabolic muscle-building hormones such as testosterone and growth hormone. The most effective way to increase the production of these hormones is through the use of intense, compound exercises.
Bottom line – Focus on compound exercises for the fastest results. Isolation exercises should still be included in your routine to ensure that you achieve total stimulation for every individual muscle group, but they should be viewed as a supplemental part of the routine rather than the core of it.

Why Low Calorie Diets Fail?
April 17, 2008
Your body is very smart. After all human body has taken a long time to get where it is. Your body adjusts its metabolic rate to survive on what it consumes and it detects any major drop in calorie intake to burn even less calories. If you adopt a low calorie diet of 2,000 calories per day, your metabolism adjusts itself to function by using 2,000 calories per day. If you go into a low calorie starvation diet of let say 1,000 calories per day then your metabolism will again adjust itself to burn only 1,000 calories per day. In short, your body fat stays where it was and where you don’t want it to be.
Learn the secrets of calorie shifting.

Lose Belly Fat
April 13, 2008
I receive hundreds of fitness questions every day from people all over the world, but by far one of the most common themes in these questions revolve around the struggles that most people are having with losing that flabby stomach fat that doesn’t seem to want to go away no matter what they try.
Just recently I had the pleasure of meeting a fellow fitness professional named Mike Geary of TruthAboutAbs.com. Now Mike is a well-known expert who deals exclusively with the most effective strategies for losing stomach fat so that you can finally uncover those elusive six pack abs that everyone desires.
Some of Mike’s strategies deal with nutrition aspects and others deal with training techniques, but I was impressed to see that Mike has put together one of the most comprehensive resources for dealing with all of the aspects necessary to finally get rid of that nasty belly fat for good.
The key is that Mike focuses on the REAL techniques that are going to get you lasting results, and teaches you how to avoid all of these “quick-fix” scams and gimmicks that are all over the infomercials and the internet these days.
Several of the mistakes that Mike see’s every day where people are going wrong in their fat loss attempts are:
1. Most people are wasting too much of their time doing hundreds of reps of ineffective crunches, situps, and other “abs pumping” exercises in their attempt at losing stomach fat.
Mike has discovered that there are certain highly effective exercises that stimulate your metabolism much better, and increase your fat burning hormone levels much more. These exercises that Mike outlines are the best of the best for getting a lean, chiseled body.
Surprisingly to most, the majority of these most effective exercises for stomach fat loss are NOT “abs-specific” exercises. Not only that, but Mike shows you how to combine and sequence them to get the best metabolic and fat loss results possible, changing the shape of your entire body.
2. Most people are wasting way too much time doing hours upon hours of boring monotonous cardio routines.
Mike has researched this topic extensively, including an entire course he’s taken comparing different modalities of cardiovascular exercise. After all of this research, we’ve come to the conclusion that the majority of people out there are not doing the right types of cardio exercise. In fact, most people may actually be in-advertantly decreasing their metabolic rate by doing too much of the wrong types of cardio!
The strategies that Mike reveals in his program go beyond “interval cardio” too.
3. Most people are failing miserably with fad diets.
Mike reveals exactly why most low-carb or low-fat diets are actually working against what your body needs to become lean and ripped and maintain it for life!
