The Flat Stomach Diet: How to Lose Belly Fat
Six-pack abs are a popular goal for people who desire to lose weight. Permanent weight loss is achieved through lifestyle changes related to nutrition, exercise, and mindset. The love handles, stomach pooch, "saddle bags" and remaining fat around the midsection can be stubborn and frustrating to address. It is said that a flat stomach is made in the kitchen. Nutrition plays a key role in how you lose the last bit of body fat and is essential to see six-pack abs.
Open Letter to those at the Edge of the Abyss
Are you struggling to stick with your program? Do you find you often sabotage your success, or are you stuck in a cycle of "getting ready to get ready?" If you answered "yes" to any of these questions then this letter is for you to read.
» Read more Body Mass Index (BMI) Calculator
Body Mass Index, or BMI, is a simple formula that expresses the ratio of body weight to height. Insurance companies use BMI as a risk factor for health. BMI is often used to categorize someone as underweight, normal weight, overweight, or obese. Because BMI does not take into account percentage of body fat, it is not a very accurate method (someone with lots of muscle mass may be overweight on the BMI scale yet have low body fat and be in great general health).
Body Types for Training: Ectomorph, Endomorph, Mesomorph
In 1940, American psychologist William Sheldon proposed the theory that humans could be classified into distinct body types. His body types, referred to as somatotypes, were based on the "germ layers" of embryonic development. While Sheldron tried to tie these body types into psychological profiles, the bodybuilding world embraced these classifications as way to determine what type of training and nutrition is required to succeed at building a peak physique. The question is: should your training and nutrition depend on your body type?
How to Juice Fast
Juice fasting refers to consuming nothing but juices over a period of time. There is much controversy and confusion surrounding why, what, and how one should juice fast. While I personally believe that fasting should never, ever be done for weight loss reasons, there are physical, mental, and spiritual benefits. This is not meant to be a scientific article that delves into the physiological impact of juice fasting, but rather an anecdotal study of my experience with juice fasting and how I feel it can benefit others in pursuit of weight loss and healthy living.
Multivitamin Primer
To maintain our health, we require a variety of vitamins, minerals, phyto-chemicals (components of plants), and other nutrients. Many of these nutrients can be received in the diet. Evidence is mounting, however, that it is impractical and virtually impossible to obtain the amounts needed for optimal health from diet alone. Therefore, a multivitamin becomes important. The question then becomes - what multivitamin?
Real Metabolism Calculator
The real metabolism calculator will reveal your true metabolic rate, or the average number of calories that you burn per day. From this, you will be able to determine exactly how many calories you will need to reach your weight loss goals.
Your Real Metabolism
Your metabolism is the sum of all of your body's functions. Pumping your heart, repairing damaged cells, even digesting foods are all processes that require energy. The term "basal metabolic rate" or "BMR" refers to how many calories you would burn if you did nothing but sleep all day. Because you obviously do more than just sleep, BMR is an interesting number but knowing your real metabolism is far more important. Your real metabolism is the calories you burn, on average, every day, taking into account your BMR and all of your daily activities.
Fat Loss Calorie Zigzag Calculator
This calculator estimates how many calories you should target based on your goal body weight. It also demonstrates an example of zigzagging calories throughout the week.
The Body Weight Factor
Your body weight contains much more information locked inside than just how many pounds appear on a scale. Because of the close relationship between lean mass, fat mass, and metabolism to your body weight, that magic number can play a role in many important equations. Sometimes people tend to complicate their fitness journey by over-computing using complex equations and trying to reach a precision that isn't practical. Using something simple like your body weight can assist you with determining just how many calories to consume and how to make adjustments when you aren't reaching your goals.
