1-minute fatloss tip for this week

[ Note: I really liked this post from my friend Jon Benson fitness and nutrition author Jon Benson and I hope you enjoy reading it as well]

Got a minute?

That’s all I need to share my first of many video-based 1-minute fatloss tips.

Go here for the first of many….

My new design is something to see too.

I have my weekly live 1-minute video, tons of new features… even a “diet quiz” if you care to test your fatloss knowledge.

Plus my main presentation: “1 Tip To A Flat Belly!”

Just don’t laugh at my ballcap/unshaven look in the video… I wanted this to be super-casual, but I may have taken it a bit too far… ; )

Oh… speaking of a flat belly… I’d like to give you yet another reason to eat and workout the way I suggest in “Every Other Day Diet” and “7 Minute Body”…

I had to go to the hospital last week. No worries… I’m fine… just a bit of a scare. Definitely enough to wake you up from walking through life like it will never end! But fortunately for me, only a scare.

Anyway, the doctors in the hospital were amazed when they looked at my heart and lungs (they had to make sure I did not have any infection… and I didn’t.)

“Most 46-year-olds do not have these around their heart,” the doctor said as he showed me the pictures they took. You could see all these vessels around the heart and branching off the main arteries.

“Peripheral vessels… they were formed by your exercise program. Well-done! These help keep your heart strong and healthy.”

Every doc that listened to my heart said, “Wow… strong heart!”

Indeed… resistance training makes it so.

Before I left, after the scare went away, I asked the doctor his opinion on my dietary plan. “Well, obviously you are very lean and in fantastic shape for a man of any age.”

Thanks doc, but I wasn’t fishing for a compliment!  Since this was a heart doctor I was curious as to his thoughts.

“If you had heart disease, or if you want to prevent it, this is the exact dietary plan I would recommend.”

While I expected to hear this, it was still music to my ears.

So, my higher-than-normal dietary fat and protein, lower-carb, and relatively frequent “fun food” dietplan is “ideal” to combat heart disease according to the good doc. And according to my family doctor.

Nice to know.

Remember:  A good dietplan and exercise is not always sufficient to keep you disease-freee… but I love what the doctor told me.  “People who exercise and eat like you LIVE through it and recover much faster.”

Fortunately I didn’t have a nasty virus to recover from… but if I did, I know my condition would have helped me do just that.

Tips for Crash Dieting

February 22, 2010 by · Leave a Comment 

crash dietingIf you have ever planned on attending a wedding, class reunion, spring break, or any number of other occasions when you have wanted to look your best, you have probably done a crash diet. This article will give you a rundown of crash dieting and a few tips to help you.

Crash dieting is when you are looking to lose weight in a relatively short amount of time. As mentioned, weddings, class reunions, and spring break are just a few examples of times when people want to lose weight fast. When losing weight in a short period of time it is important that you do it correctly, so below are tips to help you.

1. Water consumption is important when completing a crash diet. Water helps the kidneys eliminate fluid, which helps prevent fluid retention. It also prevents your urine from becoming too concentrated which is potentially dangerous.

So, how much water should you consume on a daily basis? The answer is no less than 64 ounces, which is the equivalent of 8 full glasses of water per day. It is important that you spread the water out throughout the day and stop drinking about 2 to 3 hours before bedtime.

2. Most people who do crash diets only do it so they can lose some weight before their event and then quit shortly after. The problem with this is that those people will not only gain back the weight they lost, but most likely will gain more weight.

In order to fight this, you need to make sure that if you choose to not continue dieting, you ease yourself off the diet and workout for a short period of time after. For instance, if the diet you are doing features a low intake of carbs, you need to add carbs back to your diet slowly, not all at once.

Also, working out is important not only during the diet but even after you quit. It may be hard to find time to work out if you have a busy schedule, but even 20 minutes a day of cardio workout will help you keep the pounds you lost off for good.

3. The last tip is to avoid diet pills. Diet pills are seen as a good way to lose weight fast, but the pills come with side effects such as nervousness, excessive sweating, irritability, and dry mouth, all of which are bad. The short term effects of diet pills may seem good, but the side effects are serious.

When trying to lose weight fast, a crash diet can be an effective way in dropping a few pounds in a short time. However, make sure that the crash diet you choose is safe. Follow the tips in this article and you should be able to find a safe crash dieting system.
