Health Tips

Tip #1: Do Aerobics in the Morning and after a weightlifting workout.

Scientific and our studies show doing aerobic exercise for just 20 minutes, first thing in the morning and at the end of a workout, could be more effective for burning fat than a full hour of aerobic exercise performed later in the day after you’ve eaten a few meals. You see, after an overnight fast, blood-sugar levels are low, as are carbohydrate reserves. Exercising before you eat causes the body to dip right into stored fat to come up with the energy required to make it through whatever rude awakening you’ve subjected it to. So get up 20 minutes before your kids or anyone else and run or do a video or get a power rider and after using your Tone-A-Tronic unit move, move move!!
Remember though aerobic exercise does not in general burn fat , help you lose weight or get you toned. Aerobic exercise is Cardiovascular (Cardio, meaning heart and Vascular meaning circulatory system) HEART AND LUNGS . So in General if you want to lose body fat you must body build (Ladies High reps low weight) So not to build big muscles but to tone and our ToneATronic unit do just that!

Tip #2: Don’t Starve Yourself

Reducing your calorie intake to an amount less than eight times your bodyweight may cause your metabolism to institute severe starvation mode which is a energy-saving measures that will make you dim-witted and grumpy, as well as reduce the rate your body burns calories. When you start eating again normally your body goes ( OH, we thought we were starving and possibly dying from famine, so lets put on as much body fat ( energy reserves ) as possible so if it happens again for a longer period , WE WONT DIE ) It also will cause a reduction in lean body mass or muscle. By feeding your body frequently (up to six times) throughout the day, you can avoid hunger cramps and maintain stable energy levels and a healthy metabolism. Also, a low fat or low carb or low anything does NOT work . Any fad diet that has you eating differently in a few months than now is doomed to fail. Only a Proper eating plan ( I hate the word diet) That has you eating the same way in 10 years from now will be consistent and work. I have seen this many times, Questions? mail me.

Tip #3: Build More Muscle With TONE-A-TRONIC E.M.S. UNITS

Muscle has a twofold cosmetic function. It not only helps you look healthier and stronger but also makes your body more metabolically active. Muscle burns calories even while you’re just sitting there, but fat is metabolically inactive. The more muscle you have, the more calories you need just to maintain your present weight. So, if you build muscle, you can eat more and not gain fat! Your Tone-A-Tronic E.M.S. unit will help burn body fat while keeping and building more muscle. And Toning is the key!!

Tip #4: Consume More Protein

Most of you have heard a gram of fat contains roughly nine calories while a gram of carbohydrates or protein contains just four. For years, dietitians and scientists alike assumed one calorie was pretty much like another, and if you ate too many of them, they’d all end up being stored as fat. It turns out that’s not necessarily true. Studies show if you eat 100 calories of carbohydrates, it takes the body about 23 calories just to process it. The energy “cost” to digest protein is even higher. However, if you eat 100 calories of fat, it takes the body just 3 calories to process it and deposit it

Tip #5: Count “Portions,” Not Calories

There aren’t many people who can keep track of their calorie intake for an extended period of time. As an alternative, I recommend counting “portions.” A portion of food is roughly equal to the size of your clenched fist or the palm of your hand. Each portion of protein or carbohydrates typically contains between 100 and 150 calories. For example, one chicken breast is approximately one portion of protein, and one medium-sized baked potato is approximately one portion of carbohydrates.

Tip #6: Caffeine May Help Burn Fat

Supplements like Thermogenics Plus, which contain caffeine, used 30 to 60 minutes before an aerobic workout, may allow you to burn fat faster. In scientific studies, caffeine has been shown to help liberate fatty acids from body fat stores, thus possibly increasing your body’s ability to burn fat. It may also increase strength and focus during a workout and is often used for this purpose.

Tip #7: Cut Back on Carbs at Night

It’s a scientific fact that your body cannot burn fat when your insulin levels are elevated. It’s also a fact that carbs cause insulin levels to go up. So, it’s especially important to limit your carb intake of foods like bread, pasta, candy, juices, crackers and bagels in the evening after around 6:00 p.m. Carbs consumed in the evening are more likely to be converted to body fat and/or reduce the amount of fat your body may burn during sleep.

Tip #8: “Treat Yourself” Once a Week

No one can eat “perfectly” all the time without going crazy! If you’re craving something like apple pie, French fries, pizza or chocolate, hold off that craving until your “cheat day.” One day a week, forget calorie counting, portion control, etc., and eat whatever you’d like within reason . Too much pigging out even on one day a week can blow your whole eating plan for the rest of the week. So treat yourself but don't go overboard. . By giving yourself this option, you can maintain the strict discipline you need to be successful the other six days of the week
