By Bryon Zirker

Here is a tidbit of advice for trimming
your middle, do not let it get away!

New studies came up with the fact that
adding almonds to your meal plan may
not only aid your Fat loss efforts,
it also reduces your body fat and
significantly decreases your midsection.

This study that took 24 weeks, end
up published in the International Journal
of Obesity (Fat) and Related Metabolic
Disorders, included 65 adult subjects
who were either over fat or super fat.
Half of the group of subjects consumed
a low-calorie meal plan plus 84 grams
(three ounces) each day of almonds. The
other half of the group of subjects
consumed a low-calorie meal plan along
with their choice of complex carbohydrates.
Both groups consumed the same amount of
calories and protein.

when the study concluded, the happy almond
-eaters enjoyed a 62 percent greater
reduction in actual body weight, a 50 percent
greater reduction in waist measurement, and
a 56 percent greater reduction in body fat
mass as compared with the other group.

a small handful.

Fat-Burn Fat While You Sleep

By Bryon Zirker

Dietary supplement companies started getting in
trouble late in the 1990's for falsely claiming
their pills and potions could help burn body fat
while you sleep. Some of the latest research
shows promise for an activity that works-----
resistance training.

People in a total-body resistance-training research
study performed a circuit of three exercises which
were the bench press, power clean, and squat. They
completed about 10 repetitions of each exercise,
and rotated through the circuit four times. Their
workouts lasted only 31 minutes.

So here's the cool part. The researchers found in
the study that the people's metabolism was elevated
for more than 36 hours following the resistance
training.

This means that they burned more calories and more
fat for a day and a half after doing the resistance
training. I think you will agree that is an awesome
metabolism boost!

Burning fat aroung the clock is possible and should
be the goal for people trying to burn the fat off. Be
sure to include resistance training in your workouts
to burn fat while working and resting.

Fat-Effective Fat Killer andAppetite Control

By Bryon Zirker

If you are serious about losing fat and curbing
appetite, one plan blows the competition away.
A plan high in protein and low in carbs.

A group of researchers at the Rowett Research
Institute in Britain gave 17 healthy but fat
men one of two eating plans for four weeks. Both
eating plans were considered "high-protein" (with
30 percent of the calories coming from protein).
But the amount of carbohydrate and fat varied. In
the "low-carbohydrate" eating plan, only four
percent of calories came from carbs, with the
rest from fat. In the "moderate-carbohydrate"
eating plan, 35 percent of calories came from
carbs, with the rest from fat.

The fat subjects Bodyweight was measured daily,
and the fat subjects were asked about their
hunger and appetite. The fat subjects were
instructed to eat all that they desired, as
long as they kept proportions of carbs/ fat/
protein were consistent and according to the
design of the research study.

The final results were very obvious. The lower
-carb eating plan produced less spontaneous
eating, more weight loss, and significantly
lower levels of hunger. "Our volunteers found
both diets to be equally palatable," said Dr.
Alex Johnstone, the weight-loss expert who led
the study, "but they felt less hungry on the
high-protein low-carbohydrate diet."

As part of the eating plan use these sources
for protien. The best sources are grass-fed
meats, free-range chicken and eggs, and don't
forget wild salmon. Just about any fresh fish
will suffice. (Sardines especially.) If you
purchase any processed meats from the deli,
inquire about those without any nitrates.
Make sure to opt for the real yogurt with
live cultures, not the garbage with fruit
laying at the bottom.

Fat Loss-Wrong! Wrong! Wrong!

By Bryon Zirker

Most fitness guru's you ask about how to lose fat will
say that you need to cut 3,500 calories from your diet,
and you will lose one pound, guaranteed.

Wrong! It is not that simple. Researcher Kevin Hall
over at the National Institutes of Health put a challenge
this notion and came to the incredible conclusion that
the more fat someone carries, the more calories they
have to burn to lose that pound of fat.

Confused! Here is a simple fat loss solution.

1. Focus on two things to burn calories in addition to
decreasing the calories you eat (a) Interval training
in the form of short, intense workouts of total-body
strength training done up to three times per week a
family, joining a sports league - any activity that you
can enjoy and gets you off of the couch.

2.Eat more whole, natural fruits and vegetables and
fewer processed carbohydrates, which will automatically
decrease your calorie intake. Limit your food intake
to between 250 to 500 calories per day and look to
improve the quality of the foods you eat.

3.Go to Fitday.com. Once you are there, set up a free
diet and weight-loss journal. This is a great educational
tool, the fact is many people have absolutely no idea
how many calories are in common foods. We should all
make it our business know how many calories we are
eating now in order to determine how many calories
we should be eating for fat loss.

Lets keep it simple. Make the commitment you will
be glad you did. Do it now!
