Bally the Dog here, and since my Human is away on holiday, I thought
I'd email you with 3 fitness tips to help you lose fat.
After all, I finally figured out how to use the
"Human's" computer, but if you see any spelling mistakes, please
furgive me, but my big paws aren't meant for these small computerz.
Oh, and if you're a cat, please stop reading. Because I don't like
you and I will chase you down if I find out you are reading this.
Okay, woof woof?
Good.
Here we go...
Tip #1 - Get your exercise in the morning
After my morning walk, I usually get a rawhide treat, and then I
just lie on the ground waiting for my next walk. And while I do that,
I get to listen to my Human do fitness interviews for magazines and
radio stations...
...and he keeps on saying:
"It doesn't matter when you exercise for fat loss, all that matters
is that you are consistent. And when you exercise first thing in the
morning, that means you will be more consistent. And being consistent
is one of the most important things in your fat loss program."
Woof, woof, maybe that's why I get a long walk and some sprints
first thing in the morning? Bark bark!
That is probably why the vet once said to my human, "Wow, your dog
has six pack abs!"
Woof woof!
So if you are struggling to be consistent, get up a little earlier
and do your workout before life/work/family gets in the way and
stops you from getting your workout.
Woof.
Tip #2 - Eat 3 medium sized meals and some very healthy snacks
Since I'm a dog, I'll eat just about anything. And that is good news,
because that means I love to snack on apples, blueberries, broccoli,
red peppers, and bananas.
Woof, I probably eat more fruits and vegetables than most humans,
not including my Human. He eats a lot of fruits and vegetables every
day, even while traveling.
And he has six pack abs too. Woof, woof, woof.
Tip #3 - Stay active on your off days with fun & playful activity
Even though I'm almost 5 human years old, I still get anxious when
my Human leaves me alone at home and goes to the gym.
Woof, woof, woof! Bark, bark, bark! Whine. Bark Bark! WOOF!
I am sure am glad that he only goes 3-4 times per week, instead of
6-7 times per week like some folks.
On his days off, we go to the beach and parks and have fun. No long,
slow, boring cardio for him. I won't allow it.
Grrrrrrrrr. That's what I say to cardio machines. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
I'd rather chase squirrels any day than get on a treadmill or one of
those silly elliptical machines.
So bottom line:
1) Do short, burst workouts CONSISTENTLY.
2) Eat 3 mid-size meals and lots of whole, natural food snacks in
between meals.
3) Train 3-4 times per week and stay active on your off-days.
Woof.
It's that simple.
Let me know what you think.
Bark Bark!

By Jason Ferruggia
Q: Can you give us some background about yourself?
JF: Sure. I have been in the fitness industry for nearly 15
years. During that time I owned my own private training facility in
central New Jersey for ten years where I worked with over 500 clients
from over 20 different sports and all walks of life, helping them get
bigger, stronger, faster and leaner.
I am now the head fitness adviser for Men’s Fitness magazine where I
also have my own monthly column called The HardGainer. I also write
for numerous other publications such as Men’s Health, Maximum Fitness,
Muscle & Fitness Hers, and MMA SportsMag. I have written four books
and continue to do fitness consulting, training and lecturing on a
regular basis.
Q: What got you started with weight training?
JF: I was a painfully skinny kid and always hated that. It
tortured me and really affected my self confidence. My cousin was dating
a pro wrestler who was absolutely enormous and he was the one who got
me really into it. I wanted to be just like him so I started hitting
the iron. Unfortunately I was doing a lot of the wrong things and
wasted a lot of years before I discovered the right way.
Q: What is it about weight training that you love so much?
JF: I love training hard, getting stronger and making
progress. I love lifting heavy stuff. I love doing what so many people
don’t have the heart, dedication or balls to do. I love competing with
myself and with my training partners. I love unleashing my aggression a
few times a week at the gym. I love how it all makes me feel
physically, mentally and emotionally.
Q: What adversities have you had to overcome?
JF: I have some of the worst muscle building genetics
imaginable. Neither of my parents is over 140 pounds soaking wet. So I
had that working against me from the get go. Then after I had gained my
first fifty pounds of muscle I got really sick with tuberculosis and
nearly died. I had to be rushed to the hospital to have my lungs drained
and then was on bed rest for six months. I shriveled down to nothing
and was even smaller than when I started. But I battled my way back,
regained the fifty pounds and added another thirty plus on top of that. I
just wanted it and nothing was going to stand in my way.
TH: What are your favorite and least favorite exercises?
JF: Deadlifts are my favorite exercise, by far. Next would be a
tie between squats, clean and presses, military presses, and 1 arm
rows. I also love strongman exercises like tire flips, car pushes, keg
lifts, farmers walks and the like.
I hate most isolation exercises and machine exercises with a
passion. I like heavy, compound free weight and odd object lifting.
There is no torture that I could imagine that would be worse than being
forced to go to the gym every day and do leg extensions, cable flyes,
leg curls, concentration curls, and those types of exercises.
Q: What has been your favorite weight training or bodybuilding moment so far?
JF: Definitely getting all the great feedback from my book Muscle Gaining Secrets and
hearing all of the stories from those that I helped. I know how
frustrating it can be, not knowing who to listen to or what to believe
so it really makes me happy to hear that people are getting mind blowing
results with the program and are avoiding a lot of the pitfalls that I
fell victim to. I got in this business to help people and did so with
hundreds of people in my own gym but now with the book I am able to
help thousands and it really makes me happy.
Q: What are your tips for the beginner, intermediate and advanced bodybuilders?
JF: Contrary to what most people say, beginners shouldn’t use
high reps. They don’t have the control or stability to safely perform
high reps. Also when you are trying to learn a new exercise you don’t
want to be doing twenty reps where the possibility of form breaking down
is much greater. You want to stick with five reps so that each rep
will be done with perfect form. I don’t recommend that beginners go
above eight reps for at least their first six months of training.
Beginners should do full body workouts three times per week.
I don’t believe that anyone needs to do more than 16-20 sets per
workout, train for longer than 45 minutes or workout more than four
times per week; and three is usually better for the drug free lifter.
I believe in using predominantly big, compound exercises like
presses, chins, dips, rows, squats and deadlifts. I believe in lifting
heavy and always following the progressive overload principle. I believe
in keeping a training journal and always trying to beat your previous
performance.
I believe in carb/ calorie cycling but I also believe that high protein intake is overrated for building muscle.
I believe that everyone should do cardio to keep lean and stay
healthy and in shape. Cardio also increases your appetite and helps
allow you to eat more muscle building calories without getting fat.
Advanced guys need to be more concerned about recovery than
beginners and intermediates do, so I recommend that they do even fewer
sets and take time off even more frequently. Also, contrary to what some
coaches recommend, I think some advanced guys would be better served
to do slightly higher reps than newbies and intermediates. Whereas
newbies should stick with five’s and intermediates should focus mainly
on sets of 5-8 reps, advanced guys might be better off lifting in the
8-10 range more frequently just to stay safe and injury free.
Q: Is there anything else you would like to say?
JF: I would just like thank you for the opportunity to speak to your readers and hope that everyone will check out my website, Muscle Gaining Secrets

Want to know the best exercises to firm up your butt? Want the best
interval training programs to burn fat from your legs?
Good, because I've got them here for you today! All thanks to Women's
Health magazine contributor, Craig Ballantyne (he's also designed
workouts for Shape, Prevention, and Muscle n Fitness Hers).
Back in 2004 Craig created a program called "Booty for Life" for a
personal client. And while that program was awesome, he spent an
entire week last month improving the workouts AND adding a brand
new 4-week fat burning, butt-firming phase to the program...
...and he renamed it, "Booty for Wife (& all the single ladies!)".
Why did he rename and redo the program?
Well, the original name was bit of a joke, and it was a little too
close to "Body for Life", and Craig didn't want anyone (i.e. Bill
Phillips) to get upset when his Booty program got really popular.
So he made a simple little name change...now he just has to hope
that Beyonce doesn't sue him!
But seriously, and more importantly, Craig updated the original
program and added 3 new workouts & some booty-building exercises to
the plan, including:
- Lateral lunges
- 1-leg bodyweight deadlifts
- dumbbell lunges
- kettlebell swings
- dumbbell deep step-ups
- 1-leg bodyweight bench squats
Those go with all of the other booty exercises in the program,
including split squats, 1-leg hip extensions, regular step-ups, and
reverse lunges.
And Craig subbed in more bodyweight exercises so you don't need to
use dumbbells as much for the rest of the workouts. Some of the new
exercises you'll get are:
- Stability Ball Cross-Body Mountain Climber (great for abs/obliques)
- Close-Grip 3/4 Rep Pushups (awesome for sculpting your triceps)
- Stability Ball Pike (for hard-core abs)
Plus, you'll get SIX different fat burning interval training
programs, and interval training has been shown to reduce thigh fat
in research studies.
Whew. There's a lot in there for you, and to celebrate the re-release
of Booty for Wife, I've asked Craig to put together an amazing
special offer just for you.
You'll get all of these for free...
1) The TT Booty for Wife (& all the single ladies) 12-Week Program
2) The TT Female Bodysculpting 4-Week Workout
3) 30-Days in the TT Member's Website & Forum
4) The TT for Hot Chicks 4-Week Workout
5) The NEW "TT Bodyweight Cardio 3" Workout
...when you get your half-price copy of the Turbulence Training for
Fat Loss Program for only $19.95.
(That's $10 less than if you were to buy Booty for Wife on its own!)
So you could get Booty for Wife for $29.95 or you could get Booty
for Wife plus Turbulence Training plus all of those other bonuses
all for only $19.95.
I think that's an easy choice, don't you?
Click here to get this amazing special offer today:
Plenty of time to sculpt that booty before you hit the beach on your
next holiday.
By the way, just listen to this incredible feedback on the program:
"I just finished section 2 of the Booty for Wife series. I feel
strong and super fit and I've gotten so many compliments lately
that I know it has to be the program! I start the 3rd section
tomorrow and it looks tough and I can't wait. I know that in 4
weeks I'm going to be amazed at myself. And, I am so looking
forward to doing the chin ups. I hoping I can do at least one to
start and by 4 weeks I want to be doing 5 or more. This is a really
great 3 month program and if you haven't tried it you really
should."

Jon Benson just sent me a killer email describing 3 easy ways to curb
your appetite.
This is eye-opening... so enjoy!
-----------------------------------------------------------------|
3 tricks to suppress your appetite
-----------------------------------------------------------------|
Quick-Links:
"Favorite Foods" Dietplan Diagram:

<== click.
Article: "3 Reasons Dietplans Fail YOU":
http://www.everyotherdaydiet.com/3-reasons-diets-fail-you
-----------------------------------------------------------------|
Another good article appeared today in the fitness section of MSNBC.
Since you're busy, I'll do a quick summary of the article -- the good
stuff, the bad stuff, and what you need to do today to get started...
First, you need to know this...
And this will probably shock you...
Rarely, if EVER, do you need to suppress your appetite!
The real secret is to increase your metabolism... the rate at which
your body uses food for fuel.
Then being hungry is a good thing... as long as you're eating the right
foods at the right time.
Jon Benson's "Favorite Foods" plan is a great way to do this...
http://www.everyotherdaydiet.com/video3
<== click.
But let's say you want to curb your appetite at night.... that's the
time most people really lose it on a dietplan. Even on a plan that
ASKS you to eat frequently like mine, there are times where
night-time cravings need to be put to sleep.
So use these tips from the article to ease the urge to eat at night:
1. Protein First
As Jon stresses in his dietplan, "Rise and shine with protein." But
what does this have to do with night-time cravings?
Everything.
Set the body up to use your own fat-stores for fuel by eating protein
in the morning and your appetite FOR fatty foods goes way down during
the day and the night. Protein is "thermogenic", meaning it helps
increase your metabolism. It also acts as a natural appetite regulator.
Notice I said "regulator" and not "suppressant." That's because you
only need to regulate your appetite, no matter how much bodyfat you
desire to drop.
Jon explains more here:
http://www.everyotherdaydiet.com/video3
<== click.
Cool, right?
2. Go For The Grapefruit
In a study at the Nutrition and Metabolic Research Center at the
Scripps Clinic in San Diego, people who ate half a grapefruit with each
meal lost an average of 3.6 pounds in three months. That doesn't sound
like a lot (and it isn't) but that's ALL they changed.
It doesn't matter for our purposes... we want to lower insulin at
night. Why? Insulin is not only dangerous for your health in excess but
it also can cause a LOT of fat storage if secreted too much at night.
Enter the lowly grapefruit.
A great snack, especially if you have a few bites of lean protein
with it.
3. Smell This!
This is a trick I didn't know about until recently.
Smelling food can trick your brain into thinking you've eaten.
A recent study found that those who inhaled peppermint in scent form
every 2 hours at (get this) 2700 calories LESS per week than they
normally did.
Let me put that in perspective: That's a fatloss of more than half a
pound a week... from sniffing peppermint!
Vanilla also works. You can keep vanilla-scented drops or even candles
around the office and take a wiff every few hours.
How easy is that?
--------------------------------------------------
The Bad Part
--------------------------------------------------
The MSNBC article goes on with advice like "eat potatoes" and "eat just
a little bit of fat", both of which are nonsense.
Potatoes may fill you up, but they are still starch - and starch should
be consumed on your "off" days.
Potatoes are especially bad due to the higher-than-desired glycemic
index of 85 (anything over 50 is too high.)
You also need dietary fat... and not just "a little." You need a
moderate amount to stay healthy and keep insulin regulated.
Olive oil and even coconut oil are excellent sources, as are naturally
occurring fats in fresh fish, grass-fed beef, farm-raised chicken and
whole eggs.
The rest of the article is common sense stuff: Workout, eat dense food
that requires you to chew a lot (tire out the jaw muscles and you
naturally eat less), etc.
The top 3 are the real winners.
Sincerly,

pizza or burgers) and still stay so fit?"

P.P.S. I found another really good article you may want to check out
as well. It's all about how dietplans fail YOU... and this may do more
than relieve some "guilt" you might have over the start/stop dieting
so many of us have gone through.
