Yesterday I talked about the Anabolic Mindset. Hopefully I've gotten you thinking about what the best way is to lose fat. Many of you really love the Metabolic Surge program and for good reason–it works. However, if you were to increase your calories and follow that same program, I bet you'd put on muscle at first and later you'd burn fat. That's how it works. You have to rev up the engine and then, after you've built up and stoked the fires, your body begins to peel off fat like mad. You need to change the way you think. That's why I call it the Anabolic Mindset. Fat loss and muscle gain do not have to happen seperately. I know I once believed that the two were seperate actions, but I've since determined that the best approach to fat loss is muscle gain. That's right, get yourself into the Anabolic Mindset and put on muscle and you will shed fat as well. It is scary at first, but trust me on this. You should eat at least at maintenance level of calories (preferably a little higher) and work out with extreme intensity. By doing these things you will gain muscle. Muscle, as we all know, burns fat. This is where the Anabolic Mindset comes in. Focus your efforts on maximum muscle gain and you will eventually see maximum fat loss. It is just a fact. |

The progression continues. I admit that I am surprised that as I close in on 12 straight weeks of H.I.T. I am still progressing in all lifts. When my next round of lifting begins I will be posting my workout log and my son's workout log as well. I want everyone to see that H.I.T. works for people of all ages and ability levels. Example: Prior to starting H.I.T. my son was stuck at the empty 45 lb. bar for his bench press. In his last workout he hit 70 lbs. x 8 repetitions. He's been doing H.I.T. for about 4 weeks. Yes, he went up 25 lbs. on his bench in 4 weeks. Better yet, that is an increase of 56%. How many of you would like to see a 50% increase in your strength in just 4 weeks? I hear some of you out there right now thinking "That's not possible for me" yet you will plunk down $50 for the latest "guru's" workout eBook that makes the same promises and yet has never been proven on anyone, including the "guru." |

We tend not to believe in ourselves and that is a major limiting factor in everything we do. |
