The Master Cleanse is soooo yesterday. Here are the best new ways to drop pounds fast.

To complete this How-To you will need:

Willpower
Monounsaturated fats
Video games
Tea
The dietary supplement glucomannan

Step 1: Eat half

Eat half as much as normal every other day. A University of California at Berkeley study found that this simple trick helps the body break down fats and shrinks fat cells.

Step 2: Flatten your belly

Try the Flat Belly Diet, which is based on eating foods high in monounsaturated fatty acids, like nuts, avocadoes, and olives, at every meal. Research suggests they can help people lose weight, especially around the middle. The diet also encourages exercise and limits daily calories to 1,600.

Step 3: Slim hips and thighs

See if you can stick with the Gi Hip and Thigh Diet. Created by British diet guru Rosemary Conley, its premise is simple—limit breakfast to 200 calories, lunch to 300, and dinner to 400.

Tip: Fasting one day a month won’t just save you some calories—it’s been shown to cut the risk of heart disease by up to 40%!

Step 4: Play video games

Play more video games that require movement, like Dance Dance Revolution and Wii Sports. A British study found that playing the latter an average of 12 hours per week could burn more than 1,800 calories.

Step 5: Be a skinny bitch

Follow the Skinny plan by eliminating sugar, dairy, white flour, coffee, diet drinks, soda, and artificial sweeteners from your diet. Oh, and you have to exercise, too. Posh Spice, a skinny if there ever was one, has been seen toting this diet book.

Tip: Set goals when you diet. A study reported in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association found that doing so increases your chance of losing weight by a whopping 84%.

Step 6: Toss the snacks

Get rid of cravings by tossing out all snacks—that’s the thinking behind the No-Crave Diet, which advocates three meals a day, no munching in between.

Step 7: Drink tea

Drink tea—lots of it. According to the Ultimate Tea Diet, it will help you shed pounds faster than you can say “milk or lemon” by suppressing appetite, cutting sugar cravings, and promoting thermogenesis, the process by which the body generates heat by raising metabolism.

Step 8: Fill up faster

Fill up faster by taking glucomannan, a fiber supplement made from yams that absorbs water in your stomach, making you feel stuffed. One study showed that glucomannan led to significant weight and fat loss—and trimmed waists—especially for a control group who exercised as well.

The only thing that can come from only using the scale to see if your exercise program is working is “Bad News”.

If you really want to know if your program is working for you you need more tools. You see; our body is made up of about 60% water.

A 150 lb. person has about 100 lbs. of water. That water goes in and out of cells, muscle, organs depending on many factores. For women a certain time of the month, for higher intake of sodium, for intake of different types of carbs, etc.

My point is that your bodyweight fluctates for so many reasons that we can’t figure it out.

Three ways that are better than just using the scale to see if your fitness program is working is:

#1 The way your clothes fit

If your pants are more lose around the waist and you have
more room in your clothes than more than likely are losing fat.

#2
To use a clothe tape and a scale.

The waist line measurement and the scale give you a lot better feedback.

If the scale stays the same and the waist measurement goes down, then you are losing fat and gaining muscle.

If the scale stays the same and the waist measurement goes up then you are gaining fat.

#3

One site skin fold caliper kit. They are very easy to use and very affordable. Just google search for them. The feedback is much more precise than the other methods above.

The three #’s that are important to monitor are;

1. Overall bodyfat %
2. Fat weight
3. Lean Body Mass

These kit are very easy to use and within one minute you will know if you are losing, gaining, or maintaining muscle and fat.

Using one or all three of these techniques you will be able to find out what works and what does not work at gaining muscle and losing fat.

If you have been following me for any length of time you know that I believe that one of the most important factors in transforming your body and life is “muscle confusion”. Simply put; you can’t do the same exercises the same way all the time. You must give your muscles something new and different.

Tune in here each week to get a new “Unique Exercise of The Month” that will shock your body to lose fat and gain muscle.

Healthy lifestyle coach Erin Huggins shares her number one weight loss tip.

Hey there, I am so inspired to help people reach their weight loss goal. I have lost over 20 pounds and I want to help you do the same. Helping people lose weight naturally is one of my biggest mission in life. I know how frustrating weight loss is because I’ve been there. My weight loss approach is completely holistic. I teach what I did to lose 20 pounds and keep it off for 13 years. I want to show you that weight loss is not a mystery. Weight loss is simply a matter of the right conditions coming together. Your weight loss goal is EASY if you have all the right ingredients. You have to think about what you will gain from losing. Stop thinking about your weight loss goal and start thinking about the benefits from your goal. This is VERY important. To many people only focus on the big picture weight loss goal and they dont focus on the steps or the conditions that will make weight loss inevitable. This is crucial to your success. I can not stress this enough!

Ok, so I went off on a little tangent there. Natural nutrition is so important. Whole foods, and natural foods from the earth will get you to your goal. You have to start to care for yourself by eating and preparing whole, organic and natural foods whenever possible. When you do this weight-loss is inevitable. And this is what you want.

Good luck and success,
Erin

Working aerobically on your abdominal muscles for over 7 minutes stimulates the capillaries in this area. These in turn increase the blood flow. A greater blood flow means a greater flow of oxygen – and fat only burns in the presence of oxygen. Toned muscles need more calories (kcal) to stay active. Our organism tends to release these calories from the area nearest the muscle, in this case the waist area.

Go to http://BuildMuscleBurnFat.info/ my FREE workout plan Build Muscle and Burn Fat FAST AS HELL!

Keys to getting a six pack:
You can have the greatest, most muscular set of abs in the world, but if they are blanketed by a layer of body fat, who cares. In order to rid yourself of the extra body fat around your midsection, you need to incorporate effective cardio sessions into your fitness plan. You cannot spot-reduce the midsection by doing extra ab exercises like crunches or sit-ups. You first must burn off the body fat through proper cardio to properly define the area.

Abdominal training by itself will not do much. Cardio needs to be intense enough to do the trick. Three to four sessions a week of intense jogging, running, the Stairmaster, the elliptical, jumping rope, or biking should be enough to get the process in gear. Swimming, hiking, and taking aerobics classes are beneficial as well. Nothing beats jogging or running. It is the most intense, efficient, and effective method of burning calories. If running outside hurts your joints, try running inside on a treadmill or outside on a dirt path. It definitely is easier on the body.

Again, you NEED three to four intense cardio sessions a week to help create a calorie deficit and help rid the body of the fat that covers your abs.

Proper Nutrition:

Do not sabotage your results in the gym by giving yourself a passport to pig out. Ridding the body of fat once and for all is accomplished by proper nutrition more so than incorporating cardio. At the end of the day, if you have consumed more calories than you have expended, you add body fat. So you need to burn more calories than you consume.

Nutrition is important because you can reduce the amount of calories you take in, therefore greatly having an effect on the amount which you have to expend through cardio. Eat five to six small, well-balanced meals spaced apart about every three to four hours. Try to keep something healthy on hand.

If not, when you become real hungry, you will opt for something that isn’t as good for you. When you become overly hungry, all rational thinking goes out the window.

But it is important to get something in you. Not eating on time or at all is almost as bad as eating too much. Keep protein intake high (approximately 50% of daily calories), carbs moderate (40%), and fats minimal (10%).

Muscle fiber is made of tightly-wound protein molecules that is damaged during a workout, so you need more protein than the sedentary person to help that muscle tissue repair. Carbohydrates have an important role in the body, but do not base your meals on them. Try to avoid simple sugars like cane sugar, honey, fruit juices, syrups, and even a lot of fruit.

Drink at least a gallon of clean water each day as well. It will help in nutrient absorption and digestion and will help flush toxins from the body.

Bottom line, make sure you are supplying your body with well-balanced, healthy food every three to four hours.

Weight training The Abdominals:

Here is where most people go wrong in their attempt to develop their abs. I often ask those I train, “Would you train your biceps with sets of 50 reps with no weight?” Of course, they say “no.” How about your chest, 50 reps with no weight? Another no. I then ask, “Then why would you do that with your abs?”

Here’s an important key. If you want proper ab development, you need to add resistance (weight) to your ab exercises. Abs are muscles just like biceps, triceps, pecs, glutes, whatever. You need resistance to properly strengthen and build them. The same goes for abdominals
