5 step Recipe For a Fat Free Body

Independence Day is rapidly approaching us. In less than
4 weeks, we will all be hitting the beaches, showing off our bodies
that we worked so hard for.

Many of us might feel like our bodies are not quite where they should
be just yet. So that leaves a question.....

What can we possibly do to lose fat and get more toned in just 30 days??

This is not the ideal situation to be in, since I'm no fan of crash
diets or yo-yo dieting. But below I will give you 5 steps to dropping
weight as quickly as possible.

Step 1: You must drink about 1 gallon of water. You MUST have water
all day long. During work, when you wake up in the morning, before eating
each and every meal you should drink water. Three things about drinking
water is you slightly increase your metabolism when you drink water, secondly
we NEED water to flush out all the stored toxins and waste in our bodies; lastly,
water helps curb your appetite so you are feel full and prevent overeating.

Step 2: Eliminate all carbs after 7pm. After this time you most likely will not need
much energy. The only exception is having carbs right after your workout
to help with recovery. All your sources of carbs should not be processed.
So those who love white rice, pasta, potatoes, sorry it doesn't make this list.

Step 3: Get involved in full total body workouts. So if you are stuck doing just
arms for an entire workout, it's time for a change. Start working your entire body
so you can increase your metabolism, burn more calories by using more muscles.
One quick example would be performing 15 lunges on each side then performing a
set of 15 pushups, and then go right into bodyweight squats holding the bottom
position for 3-4 seconds before coming up and then throw in an ab exercise
like bicycles or a stick crunch.

Step 4: Increase your protein intake. People take this for granted but Hillary
Swank became a lean mean fighting machine by doing this very thing.
When it comes to getting lean, we must not only workout, but we need to help
repair them to get them stronger. Protein is what helps repair broken down
muscle tissue. Not to mention it takes the body more energy to break down
protein food sources. And when it comes to dropping fat and weight, we need
all the calories burned that we can get.

Step 5: Combine some interval training with your normal cardio workouts.
What I mean is you pick a level on the cardio machine that you can do only
for 1 minute. Push as hard as you can for that minute and then you can bring
the level to something less intense for 2 minutes. That makes up 1 round.
Perform 3-5 rounds of this before returning to your normal cardio workout
This again will help burn more calories, and increase your metabolism.
Remember burning more calories is what we need to get rid of the fat.

So get to work and use these 5 steps to get your body in better
shape for the 4th of July. I'll see you when the fireworks go off.

Yours in health,
