Fat Burning Supplements – Do They “Work”?

October 18, 2009 by

Walk into any health food shop and you’ll find an entire section of “fat burners” and weight loss supplements.

It’s clear that these products sell, but do they “work”?

The answer to this question is a bit more complicated than a simple yes/no. You’ve got to take into account the claims on the supplement, the research that supports those claims, the researchers that did the work, what the government regulators have to say about it, what the insurance companies will insure, and where the research dollars come from that support the fat burning claims being made.

Fat burners and weight loss supplements are big business.

I’m talking billions of dollars big.

Whenever there is this kind of money on the line the answers are never simple.

In this podcast I try to give you a good look at the ‘fat burners’ side of the supplement industry and which fat burners (if any) are worth taking.

(and don’t forget, the 1st Adonis Transformation Contest is going on RIGHT NOW. Test out our systems for $4.95 and get the body you deserve)

Muscle Building & Fat Loss – How To Gain and Lose

October 5, 2009 by

Muscle building is about your workout. The consistency, intensity, workout design and your ability to push past your previous best. Building muscle is largely about your genetics and working within your genetic boundaries. In short, the genetic environment inside your body is the biggest factor that controls your muscle building potential along with your workouts.

Fat loss is about nutrition and handling your food and eating environment outside of your body. Social factors like co-workers, family, spouse, school, holidays and special occasions, the country and city you live in all make a big difference for how your fat loss success goes. The way we eat and the temptation to overeat is a constant battle for many people in modern western societies.

We cover both of these topics in this podcast and show how confusing one for the other can ruin both your muscle building and fat loss results.

Getting them both on target will get you results much faster.

Strength Gaining Podcast – It’s All Relative, But Not Really!

September 28, 2009 by

Everyone would probably agree that working out with weights makes you stronger. But how do you quantify strength gain?

Strength gain is relative to two things:

1) The specific Exercise you are doing

2) The specific Rep range you are doing

For example if I want to increase my 1 repetition maximum bench press, then I need to be exercising at or close to my 1 repetition maximum frequently.

If I want to increase my 12 repetition maximum bench press, then I should be exercising at and around 12 reps on bench press.

There are many equations that try to extrapolate 12 rep strength up to 1 rep strength, but the equations aren’t alway accurate.

In this podcast we discuss how strength is developed and how it can be correlated to muscle size and your ideal Adonis Index Ratio.

The bottom line is that anyone who is close to their ideal Adonis Index Ratio shoulders is also going to be one of the strongest people in the gym.

September 21, 2009 by

In today’s podcast, John Barban and I discuss how much food it REALLY takes to build muscle.

Some questions we cover, and that you should ask yourself:

– Why should you “bulk up” and diet down

… plus so much more.
