One Outlaw Personal Trainer Coming Your Way

Copyright 2005 strength-training-woman.com

The holidays are here and every one has seemingly decided

to bail out on their weight loss and fitness routines. Come

January the gyms will be packed with those people who

decided to make weight loss their New Year's Resolution for

2006. It happens every single year.

Personal trainers count on it. In fact we are already

gearing up for the onslaught of the fat loss wars. We are

honing our skills and perfecting our payment plans. We are

looking at supplements to sell to you and new gadgets to

promote. That is every personal trainer except for me!

I am gearing up for something a bit different. I am gearing

up to help my clients survive the holiday weight gain and

continue their fat loss goals. I am not busy researching

the latest diet or buying stock for the latest celebrity

trainer book. I am working with the same old basic tools

and concepts that have produced results for as long as I

can remember.

Below are 4 simple steps you can start using right now or

in January. They are not cool or hip or trendy. They are

safe, effective and results-focused. They do two things-

give me happy clients and give my clients the body they

always wanted.

Step 1- Strength Training

Every pound of muscle burns 35-50 calories per day. Adding

lean muscle mass is the best way to jump start your

metabolism, fight osteoporosis and sustain fat reduction.

We want to have lean and toned muscles.

Tool 2- Cardio

Cardio strengthens our heart and lungs. Anything that gets

your heart pumping will do: walking, jogging, running,

dancing, swimming, biking, or house cleaning. Cardio should

be done at varying intensity and time levels. Cardio works

your most important muscle- your heart!

Tool 3- Nutrition

Nutrition is often the hardest part of fat loss. We simply

forgot how to eat well in our culture. We need to eat

protein, carbs, and fat to sustain our way of life. Cut one

of the three out and imbalances will occur. Eat 5-6 small

meals every 3-4 hours.

Tool 4- Rest

Rest is not a luxury. It is a necessity. We should eat well

every day and we should workout 5-6 times per week. The

leftover 1-2 days are meant for rest. Our muscles need time

to rebuild and repair themselves.

These 4 steps are the cornerstone of any fantastic fat loss

program. So while all the other trainers are trying to sell

you some fancy workout routine that is guaranteed to make

you lose 15 pounds in 4 minutes, remember these 4 steps.

They will a better job, they will be safer and they will

cost loads less!
