While there supplements/pills out there that will definitely help with weight loss, including green tea extract, guarana, etc - My feeling is that these are only temporary. For long term weight loss you have to eat healthier (less calories) and workout (boost your metabolism). These are both lifestyle changes - I think most people pop the pills, starve them selves, lose some weight, and then start eating cheese burgers again and wonder why they gained it all back.

Every time I tell someone I only do 16 minutes or cardio (per session) they always seem to balk. Almost everyone believes that low intensity cardio for longer durations is the way to burn fat. I'm not sure where everyone got the notion from, including myself, but I want to tell you about 'High intensity Cardio' (HIC) and why it is the best way to reach your goal of losing body fat. There are a variety of different forms of HIC - Some people call it high intensity training', some call it VO2 training, AST calls their version Max-OT Cardio and Body for Life calls theirs the 'High Point Training'. Whatever you call it, it all follows the same fundamental principles - high intensity cardio workouts, short durations (under 20 minutes) and increased intensity each progressive session. Why does it work? Most people seem to think that they burn fat during their cardio workouts, thus more is better. But this isn't quite the case. While you are burning some fat during the workout, the amount is negligible. The real fat burning process starts after the workout - if you appropriately exerted yourself during the workout, then your metabolic rate will be higher during the hours following the your session, and this is when your body will really be burning the excess calories. In addition, long sessions of cardio will force your body to go into a catabolic state - This is when your body starts using muscle for fuel. Why is the bad? Because the more muscle you have, the more calories your body needs throughout the day to maintain that muscle, i.e. you have a higher metabolic rate. So having a long workout, where the goal is to lose fat is in fact counterproductive due to the muscle breaking down, which will ultimately lower your metabolism. A recent study showed people who engaged in 90 sessions of low intensity cardio over a 20 week period lost 1% body fat, while those who engaged in 25 sessions of moderate intensity cardio then 35 sessions of high intensity cardio over a 15 week period lost 3% body fat. Additional studies have shown that participants engaging in short HIC lost 9 times more fat than those who performed long low intensity training. I will post more soon about how to incorporate HIC into your training program.

Here's another good article - The top 10 foods that burn fat: http://www.slashfood.com/2007/05/21/top-10-foods-that-burn-fat/ Cayenne Pepper Cinnamon Ginger Citrus Fruits Apples and Berries Soybeans Bananas Essential Fatty Acids Garlic Dairy Products

Great story - Here's my grocery list with benefits: Protein Salmon and Tuna: Has protein and omega-3 fatty acids, a dynamic duo that leads to fat burning. Herring: One of the best sources of creatine. Omega-3 eggs: Produced by hens that eat a diet rich in flaxseed, they also give a protein, omega-3 punch. Vegetables Spinach: For muscle-building; Neutralizes acid-forming food; contains fiber to improve gastrointestinal health Leaves: red chicory with your romaine Sweet Potatoes / Yams Broccoli (diminish estrogen and boost testosterone) Tomatoes and Tomato Juice Cruciferous vegetables: Eat broccoli, cabbage and cauliflower, which are believed to reduce the risk of certain cancers. They also are great for antioxidants. Avocados: One of the healthiest fruits, they provide B vitamins, fiber, folate and zinc. Mixed beans: kidney beans, black beans chickpeas, red, pinto Others: Artichoke beetroot, a variety of leek, a type of radish, and onions Fruit Mixed berries: Blueberries (best choice), strawberries and raspberries are high in antioxidants. Cherries: reduce inflammation / great source of energy Oranges: A source of vitamin C; also good for fiber and folate. Apples Pomegranate Juice: To boosts NO2 for enhanced bloodflow Watermelon: To promote bloodflow during workouts Grains Quinoa: A gluten-free supergrain that is rich in vitamins and minerals. Whole oats: Also one of the healthiest grains; contains the most soluble fiber. Buckwheat: Encourages muscle growth (mimics insulin for higher uptake of protein - take after workout) Fats Mixed nuts or Almonds: Reduce risks of several diseases, including heart disease; promote weight loss. Extra Virgin Olive oil: Revs up metabolism and reduces risk of diseases. Flaxseed and flaxseed oil: Contain heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids.

Also, AST just wrote an excellent article that dives much deeper into this subject - Check it out: http://www.ast-ss.com/dev/qa_search/full_text.asp?ID=2974

Sleep is also critical to muscle gains, particularly if you are following a weight training program. A lack can short circuit all of your hard work in the gym. A recent study by The Eastern Virginia Medical School showed that those who slept that much more a night on average had a Body Mass Index of five points lower than others in the study.

A lack of sleep has many negative implications including hypertension and higher levels of cortisol in the body, which leads to weight gain. Studies have shown that people who get the least amounts of sleep are typically the most overweight obese people are more likely to suffer from such ailments as diabetes and heart disease.

I have seen a number of articles recently about flax seeds preventing hair loss. Apparently, the key are flax lignans, which are found in flax seeds, but not in flax oil. You can buy ground flax seeds at most grocery stores, or if you want to save some money, you can purchase whole flax seeds and grind them up in a food processor. They are particularly good on top of salad and cereal. Be sure to refrigerate them after grinding. http://www.dentalplans.com/Dental-Health-Articles/Natural-Supplement-Shows-Promise-for-Hair-Loss.asp

I have this rash I need to tell you about.

haha - very funny. Incorporating 'good' fats into your diet, such as olive oil, etc can assist with higher testerone levels. Omitting these from a male's diet will cause these level to drop significantlly.

Oh yeah - and I live in a van down by the river.

I always tell the story about how I got capped or how I had to shank a guy in prison. Girls are on me after that.

One of the biggest myths is that you should do cardio and lift weights during the same exercising session. When you do cardio you deplete your glycemic stores - when you lift after cardio your body is already drained of energy thus stunting your workou.
