The #1 reason people FAIL to lose weight

Hey Everyone

Rafael Moret here from the South Florida Fitness Boot Camp program and I have a cool post for you 

The #1 reason people FAIL to lose weight:

Let me ask you this:  If every day you stepped on the scale and saw a
lower number, and every week you looked in the mirror to see visually
noticeable results, would you continue doing what you are doing?
 
Let me answer that for you.  YES, you would.
 
It doesn't matter how "hard" what you're doing is, you'd still
continue to do it. 
 
In fact, you'd probably work out even more and tighten up your diet
even more as a result of the RESULTS you're experiencing.
 
Results are motivating.  If fact, there's nothing more motivating.
 
Nothing.
 
And here's another reality:  If you're NOT experiencing results,
you will never continue to put in the hard work and effort
necessary to change your body.
 
Unfortunately, hard work and effort don't necessarily equate to
results.  In fact, there are a ton of people out there working
hard, and getting nowhere.
 
Why?  Because there's a ton of information out there that simply
does NOT work for fat loss, while still requiring a ton of hard work
and sacrifice. 
 
For example, you could "diet" and choose the wrong foods and watch
your weight stand at a standstill.
 
You could perform hours of slow-go cardio every week only to watch
the scale read the same number week after week.
 
You could starve yourself, royally screw your metabolism, and even
GAIN weight over time as a result. 
 
And then what happens?  You quit, that's what.
 
And I don't BLAME you.  Why would you ever continue to sacrifice
without being rewarded?
 
I wouldn't, and you shouldn't.      
 
So take a good hard look at what you're doing and think about this:
What's fueling your workouts?  What's fueling your desire to eat
healthy and consume fewer calories?
 
If results aren't your fuel, you're going to give up and
quit...sooner rather than later.  Proof?  Let your car run out of
fuel and see what happens.
 
That's right, it doesn't go.
 
The one solitary thing that fuels your desire to "stay on the
wagon" is results.  And that's what this newsletter is here for: 
to give you strategies and information that actually work, so you
can continue moving forward toward your goals, without wasting
your time.
 
Now, one of the most important things you can do to ensure your
"diet" isn't wasting your time is to learn exactly which foods to
eat to create a fat-burning metabolism.  Fortunately, my buddy Kyle
lists a bunch of the best fat-burning foods at the link below. 
Yes, FOODS that actually help you burn fat.  Here they are:

Lap-Band,oBand, Gastric bypass vs. Bootcamp

Years ago Lap-Band surgery cost roughly around $25,000. Today you can have surgery for $4000 – $7000.
But really
The lap band surgery may cost anywhere from $17,000 to $30,000. The cost includes pre-op tests, surgeon fees, hospital charges. There may be additional charges added for follow up care.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website presented a study which shows the estimated cost of obesity, including direct (preventative, diagnostic and treatment services related to obesity) and indirect (income lost, decreased productivity, restricted activity, absenteeism and bed days) medical costs. In 1998 alone, total adult medical expenditures attributable to overweight and obesity was estimated at $51.5 billion, including out-of-pocket medical expenses, private insurance, Medicaid and Medicare. According to a more recent study (by RTI International, the Agency for Healthcare Research, and Quality and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control & Prevention) the annual medical expenditures attributable to obesity have increased significantly over the past decade to approximately $147 billion per year. An obese person spends approximately $1,429 in medical costs - 42% more than a person of normal weight.
According to the June 2005 online version of the Journal Health Affairs, the cost of obesity can add up to $15,568 a year, including medications and food.   WEIGHT-RELATED COSTS   This includes: Medical/Drug costs $5,965 Out of Pocket Healthcare Expenses $2,182 Employment Inactivity Costs $900 Commercial Weight loss Programs $600 Prescription Co-Pays $600 Grocery and Dining Costs $5,321
Total $15,568
The cost of gastric bypass ranges from $18,000 to $35,000, depending on where you live. The good news is that, increasingly, insurance providers (including Medicare and, in some states, Medicaid) are offering gastric bypass surgery insurance that covers all or part of the gastric bypass cost if your doctor establishes medical necessity and if you meet the National Institutes of Health insurance requirements.

Gastric Bypass Surgery Cost Breakdown

The cost of gastric bypass surgery comprises:
  • Anesthesia fees
  • The hospital facility fee
  • The surgeon's fee
  • Pre-op lab and X-ray fees
  • Some period of time after surgery for post-operative care (typically 90 days)
Factors not included in the cost of gastric bypass:
  • Post-surgery behavior, exercise and diet counseling, including the cost of vitamins and supplements.
LAP-BAND®
  • low risk
  • minimally invasive
  • reversible
  • adjustable
  • no hospitalization
  • no cutting
  • no malabsorption
  • no unhealthy muscle wasting
  • no dumping
  • no diarrhea
  • no osteoporosis
REALLY? (This is my own input)<<<<< BYPASS
  • high risk
  • invasive
  • irreversible
  • permanent, non adjustable changes in anatomy
  • 2-3 days hospitalization
  • intestines cut and rearranged
  • chronic malabsorption
  • unhealthy muscle wasting
  • dumping
  • diarrhea
  • osteoporosis
(this is on their own site)
While surgeons have reported that gastric bypass yields a faster pace of weight loss in the first year, the long-term results of gastric bypass and LAP-BAND® are practically the same. The real difference is in the shorter-term results. Whereas gastric bypass is far more invasive and requires a longer recovery time, LAP-BAND® is the minimally invasive, safer and more controlled surgical option.
Now after eading all that
Let me ask you some logical questions..
Which one of these helps with your cholesterol?
Which one of these helps with your diabetes ?
Which one of these helps with your stess and hyper tention?
Which one of these will help you get stronger?
Less winded when you go up the stairs?
Which one shows you how to eat? What to eat? When to eat? To Support Your Goal
Which one will give you long, lean, lean muscle tissue?
Why do I push Boot Camp or my program?
Because we do give you all those things!!
Exercise, specially the way we do it, will help with:
It can lower the risk of heart attack, stroke, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, depression, dementia, osteoporosis, gallstones, diverticulitis, falls, erectile dysfunction, peripheral vascular disease and 12 kinds of cancer.
But what if you already have one of these conditions? Or an ailment like rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, congestive heart failure or osteoarthritis? How can you exercise if you’re always tired or in pain or have trouble breathing? Can exercise really help?

Can exercise really help?
You bet it can. Marilyn Moffat, a professor of physical therapy at New York University and co-author with Carole B. Lewis of “Age-Defying Fitness” (Peachtree, 2006), conducts workshops for physical therapists around the country and abroad, demonstrating how people with chronic health problems can improve their health and quality of life by learning how to exercise safely. “The data show that regular moderate exercise increases your ability to battle the effects of disease,” Dr. Moffat said in an interview. “It has a positive effect on both physical and mental well-being. The goal is to do as much physical activity as your body lets you do, and rest when you need to rest.”

Should you take "Supplements"?


 Wednesday is here people...and that means I am going to kick it up a notch at bootcamp.

That also means some people are going to call it a week and start relaxing and eating junk.

Some people are going to get there week started today...and that's good...and some people are already 2 days into the workout week and are moving strong....

Where ever you fall...here we go!!!

People are always asking:
What supplements should I take?
What pills are good?
What Vitamins are good?
What diet products are good?

I always say you should supplements, but for that purpose. To supplement their food or exercise program, not instead of it.

I always recommend Prograde, because they make quality products. I know the owners, nutritionist and dietitians behind the products personally. 



What is important is not just to know what supplements to take, but WHY?

Let me give you an example...have you ever heard of "Astaxanthin"

Have you ever wondered why krill oil was brightly colored red instead of yellow like other marine omega-3 lipids?

This pigment responsible for giving krill oil its unique color is a special red carotenoid called astaxanthin. If that isn’t just a mouthful enough to say, it has also has been demonstrated to have a laundry list of pharmacological effects including as an antioxidant, anti-cancer, anti-diabetic, and anti-inflammatory agent according many research studies.

Those little DETAILS make this company AWESOME!

Want info on fat loss:
Most supplement companies want nothing to do with this nutrient. Well, at least it seems that way.
You'd think with all this powerful research coming out they'd be following our lead.

GENESIS has the power to quench the flames of inflammation and help you maintain your energy, strength, good looks, and great health.
What would you do if there was a fire raging inside of you?

And what if you knew that this fire was threatening your health, could cause your body short-term and long-term damage, and could compromise your ability to live and move the way you wanted?

Would you ignore it?

Or would you do anything you could to put it out?
All the details about GENESIS are here: http://results4sure.getprograde.com/green-drink.html
and I have individual servings at my place
FUSION:
So-called “hydration sports drinks” are mostly sugar-only beverages that do little else than make you fatter and unhealthier.

All that sugar you drink simply gets converted to body fat and does nothing to sustain your energy levels.

It also wreaks havoc on your blood sugar levels and insulin production, which can set the stage for pre-diabetes or full-blown diabetes.

What you need instead is a beverage higher in protein (to sustain your energy levels) and fiber (to fill you up and keep you hunger-free for longer).

This is what DOES work to shed off all your excess weight without a crazy diet or exercise program that no REAL humanbeing could actually stick to.

These are yours in the new Prograde® Fusion™ “on the go” water drink mix pouches..

And I have these too
LAST...CRAVERS:
Packed with healthy fats your body needs and zero trans fats No preservatives
 Less than 200 calories so it’s THE perfect snack
 Satisfies your chocolate craving with Organic Dark Chocolate
 Perfect (and safe) for kids and young athletes
 Three great flavors: Peanut Butter, Almond Butter and Spirulina
 Prograde Cravers are made gluten free
 Prograde Cravers are certified organic through the USDA 
And I have these at the Hialeah location

I have some FREE samples for you

The Fat Burning Checklist (part 2)









Hey there people,

Here is Part 2 of the Fat Burning Checklist

What are you eating?

How are you training?

How many calories in protein, fat and carbs?
  • Protein contains 4 calories per gram
  • Carbohydrates contain 4 calories per gram
  • Fat contains 9 calories per gram
As you see, fat contains more than twice the calories of protein and carbohydrates.

Most foods contain a mixture of protein, carbs and fat.

 

 

What does that mean for you? Well look at some of the info I gave you yesterday, if you know your BMR, then where are those calories coing from.

If you cut your carbs, you still need those calories... where are you going to get them from? This is why most low carb diets end up not working. Because the total daily calories don;t add up.

What Cardio Exercise Burn THE MOST Calories



The Mayo Clinic recommends 30 to 60 minutes of cardiovascular exercise a day. This can help control and lose weight, prevent heart disease, build strength and increase fitness. With so many choices, many people wonder which exercises burn the most calories. Below is a listing of the top exercises and the amount of calories burned in 1 hour by an average 160-lb. person (people who weigh less will burn fewer calories and those who weigh more will burn more).

Running

Running is the best exercise you can do to burn the most calories. If you are running at an 8 mph pace (7 1/2-minute miles), you can burn 986 calories in 1 hour. If you add hills or sprints, you can burn even more calories.
While rollerblading became popular in the 1980s, it still ranks among the highest calorie burners. A 1-hour session can burn 913 calories.

Tae Kwon Do

This is a total body workout, building cardiovascular fitness, flexibility, movement, coordination and muscular strength. A 1-hour session burns 730 calories.

Jump Rope

Many people jumped rope as a kid, but incorporating it into your regular fitness routine can burn 730 calories in 1 hour. One hour may be too much jumping, so you can break this down to 10 minutes and still burn 122 calories.

Stair Climber

If you have enough resistance on the machine, using a stair climber can burn 657 calories in 1 hour, as well as build your lower-body strength.

Jogging

While running fast burns more calories, a slower jog at a 5 mph pace (12-minute miles) can still burn 584 calories in an hour. Long, slow runs are great for burning fat, too.

Basketball and Football

A friendly game with friends can burn up to 584 calories an hour. Exercising with friends tends to make the time go by faster and motivate you to work harder, too.

Swimming

Swimming is a great total body workout because it uses nearly all muscles in the body. Virtually all strokes will increase your cardio and muscular fitness, while burning up to 511 calories an hour. It's also non-impact, so it's safe and effective for your joints

What about Weight Training:

What weight training will enable you to do is build up a larger degree of lean muscle mass, which then basically serves as your calorie burning powerhouse in the body.

When you calculate your basal metabolic rate, which is how many calories you would burn if you lied in bed all day and did absolutely nothing except breath, one of the factors that goes into this is your total body weight. The most accurate equations will also take into account lean body mass, which represents your muscles, bones, and organs.
      Therefore, the more muscle you have on your body, the higher this rate will be and the better the calorie burning results you will obtain 24/7.
 

Since muscle tissue is fairly long-term (as long as there is some stimulus on the muscle and you are consuming enough protein it won't be lost), this proves to be an effective long-run strategy for losing body fat.

This is the primary reason males typically can eat more than females without gaining weight - they have more lean muscle mass on their body, thus they are burning more calories around the clock.



The SPECIAL SAUCE SECRET: What I Do at Bootcamp is blend that ALL together. We use resistance training to build lean muscle tissue. We move fast to have a cardio like enviroment.BOOM! Fat Burning Workout
