Sarah , AtoZfitness’s CPT reviews Sean’s new e-book The Real Deal Body Transformation System.

Sean Nalewanyj has JUST released his long-awaited “Real Deal Body Transformation System” this morning.

My wife Sarah who is the AtoZfitness resident certified trainer got her hands on a copy of Sean’s complete new system a few weeks ago and this is what she had to say.

I’m sure you want to know the answer to one question: What is the truth about burning fat? Well, now you can have the answer to that, in Sean Nalewanyj’s new e-book called The Truth About Burning Fat!

What makes this book different from other fat loss books? You’ve bought a few already, or you are debating which one to get as your first; why would you pick this one rather than another?

In truth, it contains a lot of the same information as many other fat loss books. However, I truly believe this is a good book for someone just starting to look for answers, for the simple reason that it’s written in a fashion that is easy to grasp, yet complete enough that the reader will have to think a little for themselves as well, not just blindly follow the instructions.

You think endless cardio is the answer? Well, there is that, but the first thing you have to get to grips with, is the nutrition. Sean covers this aspect in his first section of the book, extensively and easily understood. I’ve read a good few nutrition chapters, and this was absolutely top notch.

The next section is on weight training. I know there are a lot of women – and some men too – who believe they’ll look like Jay Cutler if they so much as look at a weight over 2 lbs, but I wish the belief that you get bulky if you train weights would soon be obliterated, because frankly … unless you take illicit drugs, you will not get those big muscles! Sean explains it all, how to progress, when and how much to rest, etc. Go for it, have fun with the dumbbells!

Yes, you do get information on cardio too, don’t worry. It comes third. And everyone seems to think it’s the first component! No way. Do it, yes, but don’t think you can do an hour of cardio and go to the ice cream parlour or burger joint afterwards and get away with it!

What I also like about his book is the fourth section … tracking, feedback, knowing where you’re going. Seeing the scale numbers shift is one thing, but what if you’re burning 2 lbs of fat and adding 1 lb of muscle; you think you only lost 1 lb that week, in spite of all your efforts! In reality, you lost 2 lbs of jiggly stuff and added 1 lb of firm; victory! Sean will tell you how to figure it all out and know where you’re heading.

My conclusion is, if you are new to this and want an easy-to-understand answer, this is a great buy. If you are already the proud owner of a few fat loss e-books, this one will give you everything on a platter, in one package so to speak, and in easy to grasp terms. In addition, I really liked the writing style, which always makes it easier to read any book.

PS Sean’s “How To Burn Fat” system has already been endorsed by over 10 world renowned fitness experts (including yours truly) and we all agree that he’s shaking up the entire fat loss industry with his direct, no-bull approach.

The most EXCITING part is…

…Were not going to tell you to buy it or not (that’s totally up to you)…

But we do want to let you know that Sean’s introductory discount is only available for the next 72 hours, after that the price of the program doubles!

Why A Low-Fat Diet Will Make You FATTER

By Sean Nalewanyj
Fat Loss Expert & Best-Selling Fitness Author
www.howtoburnyourfat.com

As an individual who desires a lean, attractive and “fat-free” appearance, you most likely have the idea that your ultimate dietary goal is to limit your consumption of fat as much as possible.

And who could blame you for thinking that?

For years we’ve been told that low-fat diets are the only healthy solution and that dietary fat is somehow an evil, harmful substance that should be steered clear of at all costs. Just walk into any grocery store and you’ll be bombarded with package after package of “low fat” and “fat free” products lining the shelves.

For those of you who point the finger at dietary fat as the major cause of a soft and flabby body, here’s an interesting fact for you…

Despite the current obesity crisis in the United States (where 7 out of 10 individuals over the age of 25 are considered overweight) our consumption of dietary fat is actually at an all-time low!

That’s correct, we’re consuming LESS fat, yet we’re FATTER than ever!

How could this be?

Simple: diets that focus on the extreme restriction of fat consumption are actually counter-productive to your fat burning results.

Don’t believe me?

Let me give you 5 good reasons why…


1) Low-fat diets are naturally higher in sugar.

Fats contain 9 calories per gram, and when you place severe limitations on your fat intake, you’ll naturally have to make up for those lost calories through an increased consumption of protein and carbohydrates.

For most individuals, this means piling up their intake of fruits, breads, pastas and other such items that, while low in fat, are very high in sugar. Although your body requires a certain amount of glucose to fuel its daily tasks, any excess that isn’t needed and cannot be stored in the muscles for future use will simply be stored as fat.

2) Low-fat diets increase cravings and hunger pangs.

Not only does the addition of dietary fat provide a more “filling” effect from the meals that you eat, but since your carbohydrate consumption is now naturally higher, your blood sugar levels and insulin production will be in overdrive.

Constant rising and falling of blood sugar not only lowers your energy and increases your appetite, but it increases your body’s rate of fat storage as well.

3) Low-fat diets decrease testosterone levels.

Most people are aware that testosterone plays a large role in the process of building lean muscle tissue (which in turn causes greater body fat losses), but testosterone in itself also has direct fat burning effects.

Diets that focus on significant reductions in fat consumption also produce a measurable negative effect on testosterone production.

4) Low-fat diets increase the rate of body fat storage.

Your body is a far more complex and intricate “machine” than you might think, and it has all sorts of defensive survival mechanisms in place to deal with stressful situations. When you severely reduce your fat intake, the body perceives this lack of dietary fat as a potential threat to its survival since fat is a primary source of energy.

As a result, the body will make the necessary adjustments which include a slow-down in the fat burning metabolism (to preserve its current fat stores) and a rise in hormones that promote fat storage.


5) Low-fat diets are unhealthy.

Your body quite simply NEEDS dietary fat in order for regular and healthy functioning. Forget about your concerns with storing body fat; if you deprive your body of the fat it needs to keep you alive and healthy, you will inevitably cause problems.

Fats perform an endless array of positive functions in the body, including brain and nerve tissue development, organ insulation, immune system strengthening, anti-inflammatory effects, controlling cell membrane fluids and regulating hemoglobin production just to name a small fraction.

For all of the reasons outlined above, your dietary fat intake should NEVER drop below 10% of your total daily caloric intake. This is just a minimum, and 15-20% is probably ideal.

It’s not fat itself that is the enemy; it’s simply consuming the wrong types of fat, and consuming it in excessive amounts. However, it must be noted that an excess of ANY nutrient will lead to body fat storage.

Your goal should be to limit your intake of saturated fats (those that are solid at room temperature and are typically found in animal meats), and instead place the majority of your focus on healthy, unsaturated fats which are derived from plant sources and are liquid at room temperature.

This favorable form of fat provides a whole host of powerful fat burning, muscle building and overall health benefits and should make up the vast majority of your daily fat intake.

You can consume these fats through solid food sources such as:

- salmon
- cod
- sardines
- mackerel
- avocado
- almonds
- flaxseeds
- olives
- peanuts
- pecans

Or from healthy oils such as:

- flaxseed oil
- extra virgin olive oil
- fish oil
- canola oil
- sunflower oil
- hemp oil

Want to triple your weight training results?

 

Do you want to know how to triple your results from your resistance training? Why wouldn’t you?

Properly conducted resistance training can give you startling fat loss results, along with muscle and strength gains.  On top of that, when using the techniques I describe in the Fat Burning Furnace system, you’ll also receive "top drawer" cardiovascular health benefits.  And all from 2-3  workouts each week lasting just 15-25 minutes on average.

But, you’ve got to do them right, not like the average resistance trainer is taught these days.  Walk into any fitness center or gym and you’ll see at least half if not more of the exercisers performing their workouts in a less than optimal way…and that’s being kind.

So let’s get right to one of the ways you can triple your resistance training results immediately.  It has to do with how you specifically perform the repetitions.  To better understand this, let’s examine our 3 different strength levels in any resistance exercise.

Take the dumbbell c.url exercise for the biceps for example.  In this movement, you begin with the weight down at your sides.

You proceed to smoothly and slowly c.url the dumbbells u.p to your shoulders.  This movement trains your positive strength level. You should then pause briefly and contract your biceps at the top of the movement.  This trains your static strength level.

Finally, you would want to lower the dumbbells slowly back to the starting position.  This trains your negative strength level.

Now the problem is that most people don’t even bother with the static or negative strength levels.  They put all of the focus on the "lifting" or positive portion of the movement, while not pausing or contracting sufficiently at the top, and not taking nearly enough time on the negative portion.

In effect they are getting only one third of the benefits that this exercise can give them.  Actually, it’s less than that because the static and negative portions can actually create deeper inroads into your existing strength levels.  This is something you want, as it will lead to greater progress faster assuming you give your body appropriate time to recover.

Why do we care so much about strength?  Outside of the obvious reasons, strength leads to muscle growth, which leads to a faster resting metabolism, which leads to faster fat loss and various other improved health factors that could take up another couple of pages at least ;-).

In the Fat Burning Furnace system, we take these concepts to the next level once you reach the advanced stage.  Here we are using techniques to maximize your static and negative strength levels in order to push the limits of your genetic potential to the max.  That’s when the real fun begins.

So make sure not to neglect the static and negative strength levels when performing your next resistance training workout.

Don’t waste the o.pportunity to triple your results!

Losing Body FAT Versus Body WEIGHT:
Do You Understand The Difference?

Got this great article in yesterday from Sean Nalewanyj , Fat Loss Expert & Best-Selling Fitness Author www.MuscleGainTruth.com

By Sean Nalewanyj

So much focus and attention is placed on the idea of “weight loss” and “losing weight” that most typical beginners seem to lose sight of the actual concrete goal of achieving a lean, defined and healthy body…

Here’s a hint…

It’s NOT a simple matter of "losing weight".

In fact, let’s go ahead and remove the term “weight loss” from our fitness vocabulary altogether.

Why?

It’s because “losing weight” is NOT what you should be concerned with!

If you’re reading this article right now and are interested in burning fat, then chances are that you’re looking to achieve at least one of the following goals…

1) Improve your appearance to feel more confident, attractive and sexy.

2) Enhance your overall health to increase longevity and quality of living.

3) Boost your energy levels and mood to feel better about yourself on a daily basis.

Surely there are other reasons as well… but for the majority of you out there, these are probably your primary concerns.

Am I right?

If so, it is absolutely critical that you understand the following…

Losing body weight on its own will NOT allow you to achieve these goals! Instead, all of your focus must be placed on changing your body COMPOSITION.

The reason for this is simple…

Your body is made up of various different “types” of weight, all of which contribute differently to your overall appearance and health.

There are very “heavy” individuals who are in excellent health with lean and impressive bodies…

and there are very “light” individuals who are in poor health with soft, flabby and out-of-shape bodies.

Your overall body weight is made up of various different components, such as body fat, muscle tissue, water and glycogen. The haphazard approach of simply aiming to “lose weight” is incredibly misguided as it does not take these specific types of body weight into account.

In order to achieve your goal of a lean, energetic and healthy body, your goal is to get rid of the excessive amounts of “bad” body weight while maintaining as much “good” body weight as you can.

To put it simply, the underlying goal of your entire program is as follows…

Burn off body fat while maintaining lean muscle mass.

This is truly the only way to get into the shape you desire and to set yourself up for permanent, positive long-term results.

Stop obsessing about the number on the scale!

Instead, start worrying about gradually dropping your body fat percentage while holding on to your lean muscle mass.

There are three primary reasons why you should focus on this…

First of all… one very important factor that determines your body’s basal metabolic rate (the number of calories you burn at rest) is the amount of lean muscle tissue you have on your body. The more muscle you have, the faster your fat burning metabolism operates.

Secondly… maintaining a reasonable level of muscular development will allow you to achieve the shapely and athletic appearance that the majority of you are probably striving for.

A low body fat percentage may be the ultimate goal, but without a decent amount of muscle mass your body will simply take on a small and smooth form without those “cuts” and “lines” that are considered so desirable.

Finally… those who simply place themselves on “crash diets” and attempt to drop large amounts of body weight over short periods of time are inevitably doomed to fail. Such an approach places the body into a starved state and actually programs you to store more fat over the long run.

The body will react to severe calorie deficits by slowing down the metabolism in an attempt to conserve energy, wasting away lean muscle mass, and increasing the production of hormones that inhibit fat loss.

The end result is an unhealthy, out of shape body that, while being temporarily “lighter” than it was before, has now been programmed to store fat and will inevitably end up returning back to its original weight and more.

The way to avoid all of the negative effects listed above is simple…

Structure your “weight loss” approach in such a way that you aim to gradually reduce your body fat levels while keeping your lean muscle tissue levels in tact.

This is the ONLY realistic way to burn fat, keep it off over the long run, and achieve the kind of lean and athletic appearance that you strive for.

Forget about this obsession with trying to lower the number on the scale as fast as possible, as it is only one small piece of a much larger and more important puzzle.

He did it without drugs or steroids, without endless hours in the gym, and without slaving away to a tedious diet plan… All in a matter of months… And wants to teach YOU how to do the same…
