Women's Trouble Parts Specialist Interview with Rylan Duggan

2009-02-17T14:47:00.004+11:00

I've got a special treat for you today. My buddy Rylan Duggan, who is Canada's foremost expert for Women's trouble parts has given me some of his time to answer a few of my questions.

He is holding a special 3 day launch sale - until midnight Wednesday Feb 18 (Pacific time) which I strongly encourage you to check out right here.

Rylan has claimed that Go Sleeveless is the answer to plastic surgery, and a whole lot cheaper too so let's check out some of his claims.

DPM: Your Go Sleeveless program states that I will get better results than plastic
surgery! How is that possible?

RD: Trust me, this is no scam, and yes, you will get better results with Go Sleeveless than if you went under the knife. Let me explain how this is possible. If you were to go in for plastic surgery for liposuction, the most fat they could take out of you is 4-6lbs (or roughly 2-3 kilos). Any more than this, and the risk of serious complications skyrockets due to the chance of excessive bleeding, being under anesthetic too long, and other such factors.

After the surgery, you will experience significant pain and swelling from anywhere from 6-12 weeks depending on how fast your body recovers. You will also have to take potentially harmful medications to handle the pain from this invasive surgery (have you SEEN the way they ram that sucker in and out of people¹s bodies on shows like Extreme Makeover? Not exactly delicate!).

Many women are also confined to their easy chair for over a month to ensure that they don¹t cause any further damage to the tissues while their body heals. Furthermore, whenever there is trauma to the tissue, the muscles in that area essentially shut-off and go into protective mode. This coupled with the fact that you aren’t able to exercise and move around results in muscle wasting, a lowering of your metabolism, and fat gain.

By the time the full results from your surgery are seen, it has been more than 8 weeks, your metabolism is slower, you¹ve gained body fat, you've lost muscle tissue and tone, your fitness has decreased, you've been taking harmful painkillers,
and you¹re also several thousand dollars poorer from the cost of the surgery
and having to take time off work. All for a couple measly kilos?!

Doesn't sound too appealing to me.

On the other hand, in the time if would have taken you to recover from plastic surgery, you could have completed Go Sleeveless. You would have lost over 10-20 lbs of body fat (or more), gained muscle, toned and sculpted your arms, boosted your metabolism, improved your health and cardiovascular fitness, gotten stronger and done it all in the comfort of your own home in less than 90 minutes a week.

Better yet, there would be no time off work, you wouldn't have had to endure any pain, and you could live a normal life. Once you really put these two options side to side, why would anyone chose plastic surgery over Go Sleeveless?

DPM: What about the girls that are happy with their weight and in decent shape BUT their arms are still droopy; what can Go Sleeveless do for them?

RD: Whether you’ve got 1 pound to lose, or 100, the principals are really the
same. Burn fat, build muscle, and raise your metabolism, and Go Sleeveless
accomplishes all three of these tasks.

If you are at the point where you don’t need to lose any more weight, the exercises in Go Sleeveless will simply rev up your metabolism ever further (making it even easier to keep the weight off permanently) and bring out the definition and tone in your arms.

By focusing specific attention on all the muscles of the arms (not just simply the triceps), you will cause the loose and sagging skin to form back to the fascia (the connective tissue surrounding the muscle) and eliminate the drooping. Your muscles will become sculpted and defined without becoming bulky, and the hormonal changes that will happen within your body will cause the skin rejuvenate itself and regain its elasticity and firmness making your arms toned and sexy.

DPM: What about a woman that thinks like this: “I’m afraid that if I start exercising my arms more, that I will bulk up and make my arms look even bigger than they are now”. How can they avoid that happening mate?

RD: First off, let me make something very clear. Women simply do not have the
hormones to build big and bulky muscles; it defies nature. The monstrosities you see on stage at women¹s body-building competitions are often injecting male hormones, and taking their training to the extremes by lifting weights up to three or four hours a day.

This WILL NOT happen to you unless you start following the same habits as bodybuilders. What can happen to some women is this: when they begin strength training, they don’t follow a program that successfully eliminates body fat at the same time.

This is actually the most common reason why no other program out there has been successful at eliminating saggy and flabby arms until now. These programs ignore the important role of burning body fat, and just focus on exercises for developing the arms.

As the muscle starts to develop, it will push the fat out further, making the arms appear even bigger. Go Sleeveless eliminates this problem by not using exercises that build the arms, but instead using exercises that sculpt and define the muscle, and burn off body fat rapidly as well. All of the exercises in Go Sleeveless have been chosen because they are great at boosting the metabolism, burning fat, and tightening and toning the arms, NOT making them big and bulky.

DPM: What’s your take on individual body part training (or split training). Personally I reckon it sucks when it comes to fat loss. So how is Go Sleeveless actually different and why can it fix any girls stubborn arms if they’re not burning as much fat as possible?

RD: You are absoultely right! Body part specific training on it’s own is outdated
and ineffective. You can do Tricep Pushdowns until the cows come home and never get toned and sexy arms if they are still covered in body fat.

Conversely, you can lose a ton of body fat, finally achieve your target weight, and still have sagging and droopy arms. This happens when women neglect to develop and sculpt the muscle that lies underneath that fat.

Go Sleeveless is the first program ever to solve this problem by combining full body fat burning workouts with targeted sculpting exercises that will melt fat, tone and sculpt your arms, and boost your metabolism at the same time.

This approach is the only sure fire way to quickly and permanently eliminate saggy, flabby, and droopy arms for good.

Interesting interview. Thanks Rylan.

Girls, if you are in the market for a new program that gets results, you could do a whole lot worse than Rylan's Go Sleeveless.

Remember his sale ends Feb 18 at Midnight (PST) and all of his extra bonuses like the Thunder thigh eliminator and the Toning accelerator just to name two programs will all be going back to their cover price (and that's over $60USD each).

Be quick though, Rylan's site has been getting smashed so you'll be lucky to get on

As an incentive if you order through my link above, I'll throw in a free food diary analysis ($50 value alone) that can help you accelerate your Go Sleeveless results.

Go on, I dare you - check it out girls!

Sydney Fat Loss Expert Announces Bushfire Relief Group Training Session

2009-02-13T13:39:00.003+11:00

Local Sydney Fat Loss Expert Daniel Munday of DPM Performance has organised for a special once off group training Fatblast workout next Wednesday in aid of the Red Cross Bushfire Appeal.

Munday, who has been horrified by the extent of the fires and the devastation that they have caused amongst the Victorian community, has commented “I cannot believe the amount of lives that have been lost and properties that have been destroyed. It is difficult for anybody to comprehend. I know that I am very fortunate to be in the position that I am in now, with my family and my health intact, so I want to be able to do something for those who are less fortunate”.

As a result of wondering what he can do to contribute in the best possible way, Munday has come up with the special lunch time 45 minute Fatblast workout, to be held at Observatory Hill in Sydney this coming Wednesday, February 18 at 1:15pm. “For anyone that is looking for a way to contribute to the Red Cross appeal, while doing something positive for themselves and their health, this is the perfect opportunity to do so. For a very small $20 investment, you get to contribute to a great community cause as well as get a sweat on at the same time”.

Munday will be donating his time to conduct the session, and has come out and led the charge by donating $100 on behalf of DPM Performance to the tally. “I have challenged my clients and other business associates to match my pledge and already have had some great response with the likes of James Keillor of Right Track Financial
Solutions and David Coote of Top Stuff for Business coming to the party. All money raised will be going to the Red Cross. I will not be making any money out of this” Munday stressed.

The goal of this fundraising workout is to raise $1000 to contribute to the Red Cross Bushfire Appeal. “This session is open to anyone providing that you contribute the $20 entry fee. Already I have pledges of over $400 so we are on track for this high goal. Of course people are permitted to donate more to the fund”.

RSVP is essential for participation and you can email Daniel personally at Daniel@dpmperformance.com.au to register your position and pledge your amount.

For those wondering what will be in store for the workout, Munday has hinted to expect the unexpected. “You’ll be working hard but we’ll be having a bit of fun too” was all he was willing to giveaway.
Munday closed by encouraging the Sydney office workers to bring a friend and support the charity drive. “I love that even in tough economic times that Australians of from all backgrounds are digging deep to benefit those less fortunate than ourselves. It is the Aussie way and I want to continue the tradition”.

Daniel Munday is the owner of DPM Performance and is a mobile Fitness Conditioner and Fat Loss Expert based in the Sydney CBD and Inner West. He gives busy professionals the fat loss results that they deserve in less time through shorter, more effective fat loss workouts.

Healthy Deserts Possible? Here's 2 For You!

2009-02-11T10:39:00.004+11:00

I get asked all the time what can I eat for supper or desert or even just a treat on a hot day.

It's got to be something that tastes great, is easy to prepare and will not increase your belly fat.

Of course it has to fit into the healthy deserts category to get a run in the Aussie Fatblast way of life.

So for another great tip designed to increase fat loss for busy professionals, check out this video to see what you need to eat to ensure you are eating for fat loss success

Sweat It Out With This Fatblasting Workout

2009-02-07T14:22:00.003+11:00

Yeah it's a scorcher outside today. And yesterday for that matter, and pretty much every other day if you're out in the west!

But all is good.

I'd rather this than it being cold and snowed under like our mates on the other side of the world suffering through their cold snaps.

That's what Australia is about. Hot Summers.

Don't whinge about it.

Make the most of it.

I am hanging for that first taste of a cold beer this afternoon. My favourite thing to do on a hot day, but before that I'll be putting some money in the body bank with another one of my fatblasting workouts.

I'll be doing it outside and I won't be using the heat as an excuse.

The Aussie Fatblast way means nothing else than just getting your workout done without excuses.

Don't make excuses, make opportunities.

This is what I'll be doing this afternoon - it's short n sweet but it'll get my heart rate up and I'll deserve that elusive cold beer afterwards.

100 Jumps on Skipping Rope
50 Star Jumps
10 Up Downs
repeat x 5

Estimated time will be approx 15 mins but I'll be feeling it.

Give it a try and let me know how you go

Finally, Some Sense In The Diet Shake Craze

2009-02-05T09:00:00.005+11:00

There has been some news locally in the last couple of days about the diet shake phenomenon and finally a respected company have come out and made sense of it all.

The very popular Choice website which provides "trusted information for Australian consumers" according to their website blurb has hit the nail on the head.

This is what they had to say about the latest craze of people using diet shakes to help them lose weight.

I'll follow with my 2 cents afterwards.

CHOICE investigation (taken from the website http://www.choice.com.au)

To anonymously assess these programs CHOICE sent three overweight people to a selection of pharmacies offering seven different diet programs, and asked a panel of experts to assess our findings.

All the pharmacy plans involve a weekly visit to your pharmacy consultant and a diet that restricts carbohydrates to some extent. All except Ultra Lite use meal replacements to keep your intake in check. The basics of each program are shown in the table.

Programs we looked at:

AlphaSlim Pharmacy Weight Loss
Betty Baxter Complete Weight Management
Dr. Tim’s Success
Kate Morgan Weight Loss
MediTrim
Tony Ferguson Weight Loss
Ultra Lite Weight Management
Xndo Weight Control System

Finally, the final opinion by Choice:

"Pharmacy diet plans may help to shed extra kilos quickly, but most fail to deal effectively with the complex broader issues around weight loss.
CHOICE cannot recommend these programs until consultants improve their training and move beyond the “one-size-fits-all” approach".

My 2 Cents:

Round of applause there Choice. Well sort of.

Yes, diet shakes work but people need to know the real reason why.

When you take away real food for any amount of time and replace it with a calorie controlled shake people get results as they are eating a whole lot less calories.

What happens when they go back to eating real food?

Just ask anyone who has tried these shakes.

Tell me about it, I have tried to get family members and clients off these things.

My Secret Guide to Smart Eating pulls no punches in an honest review of the nutrition content of one of the above mentioned diet shakes.

The other thing that really gets me is that people are going to "weight management consultants" in chemists after only 3 hours of training in some instances. See the table here for how long each company trains their staff for.

Unbelievable isn't it.

How can someone with 3 hours of training, or even 2 days for that matter on the upper end of the scale, give diet advice?

No formal qualifications, no real world experience, just a couple of hours of biased information from the company that peddles the rubbish?

Nothing great is easy. That means weight loss too. So unfortunately, diet shakes or any other short cut are simply that. You cannot cheat your way to weight loss.

Give the diet shakes the flick and only then will you experience long lasting weight loss that works.

See this video for my no-holds barred critique if you want more reasons, and don't forget to leave your comments!

How to Avoid the Post Super Bowl Rut

2009-02-02T14:36:00.003+11:00

Hands up how many people enjoyed a Super Bowl party? There is a very good chance that most Americans and many more people around the world were glued to a television set somewhere and indulging in beer and unhealthy food.

The chances are very high that you may have drunk way too much beer and ingested enough salty food and fatty food to keep a third world country going for a week.

But that is all cool. Yes, I am not going to berate you like a naughty child because you went out and enjoyed yourself. Everyone is allowed to do that once in a while right? I do so myself at times and I enjoy it when I do!

Now, you are probably thinking this sounds pretty strange coming from a fitness professional. Am I right?

Sure, it may sound like a damaging admission that can ruin my credibility in the industry but it just goes to show that it is okay to enjoy yourself once in a while and you don’t have to beat yourself up and feel bad about it.

The main thing that people who did indulge during the Super Bowl, or any big event for that matter, is to not let that day be a precursor to letting those eating habits rule your life.

The first thing you should be doing the day after the Super Bowl, or your big party, is to get out and exercise. You need to try and put some money back into your body bank by working off some of the calories that you have eaten and drank.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t have any equipment available at home, that is just another limiting belief and excuse that people give themselves.

You can get a great bodyweight workout, and burn off some unwanted belly fat in the comfort of your own lounge room with this little exercise routine that comprises only five exercises, each done for 15 repetitions.

These exercises are as follows: 100 Star Jumps, 20 Burpees, 20 Floor Trunk Extensions, 20 Hover to Push Ups and 20 Plyometric Jumps are your exercises. Repeat 2 times through and you'll be well and truly toasted.

You can find the video right here

The other big tip for you the day after a big event is to ensure that you are drinking plenty of water. Too often people suffer from a hangover after a big day or night and the only reason a hangover occurs is because you are dehydrated. Yes, simply drinking water when you are enjoying a few drinks and before you go to bed that night can help prevent you from feeling like the world is going to end.

So, now you have two fool proof ways to ensure the day after the Super Bowl or any big party is not a total write off that leads you to bingeing even further on unhealthy food options to ease your stomach which feels like it is doing somersaults all day.

Don’t make excuses after a big day out. Make smart choices that will encourage you to achieve the best fat loss results possible.

Spin Bike Workouts for Great Fat Loss Results

2009-01-30T12:48:00.006+11:00

Have you ever done a great cycle workout on a spin bike?

Seriously, if you haven't you are missing out. It is one of the best interval training methods when you are looking for optimum fat loss results.

I prefer a spin bike to the usual exercise bike that you would find in a gym because it gives you a much smoother ride experience.

It also feels more like you are riding a real bike.

The only downside to a spin bike is that you cannot see what level you are working at so it is harder to compare your progess.

But that is a sacrfice I am willing to pay for a better workout.

I am going to be hitting my spin bike this arvo for a big interval training session.

I recently purchased a second hand one for a steal - $65 from a gym that I train some clients out of who were going through an equipment refit.

That is a steal for a Schwinn bike that granted, may have had 3 years of hard use, but it is still a lot better than the older one we used to have that was on it's last legs.

My workout today will involve me doing Tabatas on the bike - 20 seconds sprinting flat out followed by 10 seconds of recovery. This goes on for 4 minutes - 8 rounds total.

I'll be going through this for 3 rounds - 16 minutes of total work.

It is a really tough workout that really gets the heart rate going.

I use Workout Muse for my audio soundtrack. I just press play on the iPod and it tells me when to work and when to rest. I don't even have to look at the stop watch.

Seriously, this product is well worth your investment. You can find out more information by clicking here

I will be smashed afterwards but it'll be worth it.

We Might As Well Win

2009-01-28T14:34:00.003+11:00

As you may have read on my other blog yesterday, I was in Adelaide on the weekend for the Tour Down Under.

While there I had the privilege to meet and have my photo taken with Lance Armstrong's coach, team manager, mentor, call him what you will, Johan Bruyneel.

I met him during a book signing for his new book "We Might As Well Win".

It sums up what he told Lance the moment Lance decided he wanted to come back to cycling after beating cancer all those years ago.

I love that attitude!

There's no point in doing anything half arsed so we might as well win is a great attitude to have don't you think?

I can't wait to get into the book (I am just about to finish Richard Branson's latest book which is a great read by the way).

I am really keen to get inside the mind of the champion team and see what makes them tick as well as they do.

Weight Loss Workout to Cool Down this Summer

2009-01-22T08:51:00.000+11:00

Ok, we've been in a bit of a heat wave the last week or two here in Sydney.

But who's complaining?

Not me.

It could be worse.

We could be in the middle of a massive cold snap like our mates over in North America and Europe are. Give me the summer weather anyday.

I am not a fan of the cold!

So, what can you do to ensure that your weight loss workouts are still on track this summer?

I know that you want to see optimal fat loss results so you just can't give up on the training "because it's hot outside".

Don't make excuses.

That isn't the Aussie Fatblast way.

Do this simple routine in the pool.

It will take you 10 minutes and you will get your heart rate up as well as getting the benefits to help you get the fat loss results and the body that you deserve.

Also, you get to see some pretty sweet sights from my hotel pool when I was in Santorini last year!

Oprah Winfrey's Fatal Fat Loss Flaws

2009-01-20T09:06:00.011+11:00

This morning as I was having breakfast I saw a copy of Women's Day that my girlfriend had brought home from her Mums to read.

There was a headline on the cover the caught my attention about Oprah Winfrey's latest diet plan and what she was doing.

That got me in.

I like to see what weight loss workouts the celebrities are doing these days and whether or not they are on the right track.

Unfortunately I feel for Oprah.

She is being led blindly by people who should know better.

Apparently her trainer, Bob Greene has Oprah doing 30 minutes of cardio exercise even though Oprah apparently "hates cardio" as quoted in the magazine and then trains a new body part each day.

She repeats this six days a week.

I don't blame you Oprah, I hate cardio too!

You know why? It bores the you know what out of me and it is pointless when it comes to fat loss results.

Other Fitness Experts are with me on this too. My friend and Turbulence Training creator Craig Ballantyne even has written a number one best seller on Amazon titled "Just Say No to Cardio".

This approach in this day and age is great - If you are a body builder.

Unfortunately, Oprah is after fat loss results, she doesn't want to compete in Miss Olympia contests.

So why is she training like it?

What should Oprah being doing?

First up she doesn't need cardio.

She needs interval training and she needs lots of it.

She needs to kick start her sluggish metabolism to prompt her body to burn the fat. Boring cardio is not going to make this happen, especially when you have a history of thyroid problems like she has.

Secondly, Oprah needs to be doing big training exercises that will encourage her body to burn body fat and fast.

What does that include? Squats, Deadlifts, Swings, Push Ups, Recline Rows you name it.

It doesn't matter that Oprah may be on the wrong side of 50. She doesn't have to train like it.

C'mon Oprah, I want you to succeed.

Seeing Oprah Winfrey succeed will be just what millions of women around the world need to see - If Oprah can, I can type of attitude.

So please, do us a favour and change your weight loss workouts Oprah. Unfortunately you are setting yourself up for failure training like this.

To be successful you just gotta train smart.

Over and out

Sometimes There Is a Better Fast Food Choice

2009-01-17T11:11:00.003+11:00

Yesterday afternoon I was visiting my Mum in hospital (she had an operation on Wednesday on her smashed ankle) and we didn't leave until 6:30ish so Bron and I were both getting pretty hungry.

We had another couple of errands to run and it was after 7pm and we were starving.

We had a couple of options for dinner.

1) Go home to a fridge that was empty and try and whip up an omlette with very little veggies on hand - which would've been an extra hour later.

2) Stop at any fast food place and just go to town and get whatever.

3) Go to the same fast food place and order something that resembles a half decent meal.

What choice did we take?

You get 10 points if you selected choice number 3.

We went to Red Rooster and got ourselves one of their roast chicken and veggie meal with a bottle of water.

The veggies were pumpkin, peas and potatoe.

Surprisingly it didn't taste too bad.

Just remember to tell them to hold the gravy. I didn't get it on mine, but Bron did and it was swimming around, very watery and unappealing to look at.

I also cut off the skin from the chicken and didn't eat the stuffing.

While that wasn't the best option that we could've had for dinner on the run, it was better than the other choice at Red Rooster of the Chicken Burger and Chips meal.

So, you can still stick to your healthy eating meal plan when on the road or if you have an empty fridge.

Luckily today was shopping day, so we are stocked up and fully loaded of good gear for the week ahead!

I'd love to hear your fast food options for when you are caught short on the road and looking for a healthy food option. Just fill out the comment section below.

Fast Bodyweight Workouts for Busy People

2009-01-13T09:58:00.004+11:00

Ok, here's the story.

Yesterday I was under the pump.

My Mondays are a lot busier than they were the last couple of months which is great! It means business is going well and there are plenty of busy people who are out there in need of a fat loss solution.

I knew I had scheduled in a workout for the afternoon and I missed it.

Yes, it even happens to us professionals! I had a bunch of work I needed to get through and that was my priority so I didn't go home and spend all night chained to the computer.

Probably sounds familiar right?

Now, I knew that I couldn't just blow out that session and write it off.

I needed a solution and I need a fast session that got my heart rate up and would help me with my fat loss goals.

I got home from my last session at 7pm and knew that it was now or never. So I got out some tunes, cranked the cd player up and went into my office to get a fast training session in before dinner.

This one was a killer. It was a bodyweight workout that got my heart rate up and kept it up for the whole session.

I was dying afterwards and dripping with sweat.

I took a leaf out of my girlfriends book who did this workout earlier yesterday morning. This is what I knocked out.

50 Star Jumps

10 Up Downs

20 Plyometric Jumps

10 Body Blasts

20 Squat Jumps

Repeat x 3

How long did it take?

9 minutes!

Doesn't sound like much does it?

But I challenge you to make it happen when you think you don't have the time to train.

Get it done and make this interval training bodyweight workouts the staple of your fat loss program.

It beats sitting on the lounge watching re-runs of Two and a Half Men!

What's your excuse?
Fire UP and get it done!

Fat Loss Workouts for Busy People: Hill Sprints

2009-01-08T10:55:00.003+11:00

This is a workout I recently did when I was on holidays in Coffs Harbour.

Hill sprints are one of the most effective interval training workouts that you can do.

Another Reason to Workout

I read an article in yesterdays edition of MX (a free paper that gets distrubuted throughout Sydneys CBD) that quoted research from the University of Bristol which prooved that busy professionals who exercise on work days are more happier, calmer and more productive when they are at work then on days that they don't train.

Pretty cool to finally see that in print right?

Now your boss has proof to allow you to have an exercise break during your shift - you'll be more pleasant to be around at work and you will get more done in less time.

Just like an Aussie Fatblast workout!

The study also showed that people get best results when their workouts are either first thing in the morning or at lunch.

Why?

Even though the report didn't say why, it is because of the feel good endorphins that your brain releases when you exercise.

So, if you are on a fat loss results mission, then you can't go past the latest research that you need to exercise.

You will be more productive at work and possibly not even need to work the 14 plus hour days that some people do.

Get out, get a break and enjoy the benefits.

This study can be great news for those that suffer from mild depression.

You need to get out of your office and get your body moving. You'll get some of those positive endorphins running through your body making you feel better about yourself and you will be getting a break from the office.

What could be better than that?

See, what I've been saying for years has actually been proven!

Fat Loss Expert’s Last Minute Christmas Present Tips

2008-12-16T09:27:00.002+11:00

Sydney Fat Loss expert, Daniel Munday has the perfect answer for people looking for a last minute present for the person on your list who is hard to buy for.

Munday has listed 3 of his top fitness gifts that will ensure satisfaction at your Christmas gathering as well as satisfaction that will continue to last through the year.

1) Done for you exercise to music soundtracks

The best gift that you can get the person that has everything else is a workout soundtrack mp3 program. This present gives you a done for you exercise music tracks that tell you when to go flat out and when to recover. “It is ideal for both cardio interval training sessions and strength training.

You can choose from so many different interval programs that it gives you an endless source of fat loss exercise music. You simply upload them onto your mp3 player and press play. It just doesn’t get any easier.” Munday says. You can only find these popular soundtracks online here

2) Foam Roller

For the serious trainer a must have accessory that few people actually have is a foam roller. These long cylinder pieces of foam are a godsend for people with really tight muscles or injury concerns. “It is like having your own personal masseuse on call” is how Munday sums them up. “Your recovery will improve and your flexibility will increase as well” he continues. The best quality foam rollers are available at Rebel sport stores or online here

3) Gift voucher for a group training program

A group training program, or boot camp style of workout, is a great way to introduce you to a training routine with a professional and qualified fitness expert. “The best thing about group sessions is the support network that people give each other.

Research has shown that you need the help of others to reach your goals whether it be for fat loss or general fitness and the best way is to get your friends and train together” Munday states.

The other benefit of group training is it is a lot cheaper than personal one on one training sessions which is ever important in these times of financial belt tightening.

Fat Loss Tips to Keep the Weight Off this Christmas

2008-12-14T08:58:00.002+11:00

The Christmas season has snuck up on us once again and it seems that everywhere you turn there are Christmas parties, Christmas drinks, just about any excuse for a social get together will do. You have two options at this time of year.

You can be like most people and write off December and be behind the eight ball come January 1 just like every other year.

This is a bad choice as it only leaves you needing to lose even more weight than you do now.

Or you can choose the smart option and implement the three little secrets that I am about to share with you that will increase your chance of success of getting through this festive season without the weight gain of previous years.

You might surprise yourself and even lose weight at this time of year which is always a nice bonus!

1) Eat before you go out to a party

The chances are the food options at your function or party will not be the perfect nutrition choice to aid your fat loss mission so you will need to plan ahead.
The easiest way to do this is to make sure you eat something healthy just before you go out. The perfect snack will be something that has protein as an ingredient. Your best bet will be raw, unsalted nuts, a can of tuna or salmon or even some yoghurt.

Eating this just before you leave will fill you up and you will be less likely to rely on the plates of nibbles that offer no nutritional value.

If you forget to eat before you go out, make sure you stick with the vegetable snack plate. Carrot and celery sticks with hummus are a great option to curb any cravings and the bowl of nuts is always going to be better than the chips. Just be careful that the salt on these nuts doesn't make you overeat.

2) Get in a pre-party workout

What better way to get ready for a big night out by putting in a big workout first? Putting the money in the exercise body bank will not only make you feel good about yourself but will leave you feeling more alert and in a great mood after your body releases all of the post exercise feel good endorphin hormones throughout your body.

You will feel like you have earned your drink after this workout, just don't go overboard!

3) Limit your drinking days

I always hear the excuse people need to have a drink every night because they have something on every night this week. This is just a certain route to failure.

The best way to get through the festive season is to plan ahead when you are going to have a drink. Let's be realistic here. It would be silly of me to say just don't drink because that is not going to happen. It is time to celebrate; we just need to do it sensibly.

My big tip here is to make sure you have at least three to four alcohol free days a week.

Unfortunately, alcohol is just empty calories that increase your belly fat. On your alcohol free days just stick to water and not the soft drinks.

Soft drinks are nearly as bad for your figure as alcohol.

Implement these three tips and you are going to be in far better shape than everyone else who says I'll start my fat loss mission next year.

Why wait to do tomorrow what you can do today? Good luck on your weight loss mission and enjoy the festive season while maintaining your training regime and you will get the body that you deserve.

Aussie Fatblast Hotseat with Kettlebell Queen

2008-12-11T06:32:00.006+11:00

I've got a special q n a for you today team!

Caroline Radway, the Kettlebelle Queen as I like to call her, is a girl I've had a little bit to do with in the last year since she introduced herself.

We have been partners in the Free Fat Loss Tips launch I ran in July

Q: So Caroline, what's your number one tip for women who want to maximise their fat loss results?

Many women think they key to fat loss is pounding the pavement / treadmill /
stairmaster for hours on end. This is not the best approach - training with intensity is vital, to maximise metabolic 'disturbance', meaning your body then has to burn calories after the session and throughout the day.

This also means your fitness levels increase quicker, so you can handle more work
and more intensity sooner. The secret to getting this right, however, is matching intense workouts with rest and recovery (stretching / foam rolling - there are bonuses to take you through all of this in KettleBelleBody).

You also need to make sure you are eating supportively - plenty of nutrients while maintaining a calorie deficit. It is the clever combination of these factors that maximises fat loss results - any one part in isolation will not give you maximum results.

Q: What's your view on mindset Caroline? How important is getting your mind
right in achieving the body that you deserve?

Mindset is absolutely vital for achieving success and getting your body the way you want, and deserve, it to be. You have to have the WHAT and WHY figured out before you even start - this will help you take the right course in the first place, and will ensure you stay on track through the hard parts (as there are always challenges and obstacles in our way!).

If you have a strong enough 'why', however, the obstacles become much easier to overcome - your subconscious helps you to find every way possible to overcome them. If you don't have that reason cemented in your mind, it becomes all to easy to let the obstacles stop you in your tracks altogether.

There's a section in KettleBelleBody about how to get this all worked out, as well as an audio where I talk in more detail about the ins and outs of motivation and mindset.

Q: What's your take on nutrition? As you know from my Aussie Fatblast
program I really encourage people to eliminate as much of the processed food as possible out of your diet. Where do you stand on this?

I'm all for ditching the junk! Processed foods tax the body and provide a lot of things you don't want (excess sodium, additives, trans fats, random chemicals, lots of calories) without all that you do (the vitamins, minerals, enzymes that keep your body running optimally). You can cut your calories way down but if it's all junk you will still struggle to lose weight - and you will likely be even more hungry as 1500 calories of processed food is a lot less food than 1500 calories in chicken and vegetables!

Each meal should be based around a lean protein source, with loads of veggies, and a small amount of natural fats and carbs (each person varies on the carb side of things, and natural, unprocessed carbs definitely have their place in a fat loss diet.

Most people will see results by simply making changes to the quality of the diet, and never have to count calories. However, fat loss is only going to happen if you achieve a sustained calorie deficit over time.

If fat loss isn't happening, you may be over-eating healthy foods, such as nuts or olive oil, so may need to keep a check on calories. But for the most part, so long as you are aware of the calorie dense foods and consume them sensibly, focusing on whole, natural foods you can't go far wrong!

You can even add a square of dark chocolate in there - the really good stuff is actually good for you, so no more guilt when you are trying to satisfy that sweet
craving! Once you get used to only having sugars in natural foods (fruits) your taste buds change anyway, and you can easily satisfy your sweet tooth with natural, healthy foods.

Q: My readers will like your chocolate tip! Now, as a woman, can you once and for all convince all of my women readers that they are not going to get big and bulky from training with kettlebells and heavy weights?

Big and bulky takes testosterone - so if any women readers out there are worried, keep the training up and ditch the steroids! Jokes aside, it is a valid concern as there are women who have a more 'butch' look that most of us don't aspire to.

However, that is due to 'bodybuilder' style training. Ironically, it is likely to be the style you may already be doing in the gym, focusing on one body part at a time. Kettlebell training uses compound movements that use the entire body - a functional way of training more similar to how athletes would train. Athletes will only get 'bulky' if its needed for their sport as it is often counter-productive.

To gain muscle, you also need to eat loads! Guys trying to pack on the pounds struggle to eat enough to gain muscle. As you will be trying to get a calorie deficit there is just no way you will bulk - you will just get lean and look great.

Finally, some women complain about thighs and calves getting bigger when they begin to exercise. This is usually linked to cardio, especially the stepper or treadmill, even though they may assume it's the few squats they did afterwards.

If you perform a repeated bout of work on your legs, such as stepping for 20 minutes, and repeat that on a regular basis, the muscles can shorten chronically. This gives the impression they have bulked up. As you will be doing dynamic and compound exercises, working all muscle groups, you will not be over-working one area in this way anyway.

This is made worse by not following the workout with adequate stretching. I deeply encourage stretching after training and also foam rolling on a regular basis (self-myofascial release - see the manual in KettleBelleBody for a detailed explanation and instructions) which will ensure this does not happen.

This is not only aesthetic - tight, short muscles do not work as they should and injury can result. Stretching and foam rolling are key parts of the 'recovery' that is so important in ensuring you get maximum results - don't skip it!

In addition, Kettlebell training itself improves your flexibility - and if you also follow the Yoga Flow programme in KettleBelleBody you can be sure you will have the body of your dreams in no time!

Q: Great answer Caroline. What's the Kettlebelle Queen's favourite kettlebell exercise?

My favourite exercise - it's a hard one (the question, and the exercises I guess) as I can't pick just one. The Renegade Row I love as I can feel it working everywhere (a plank on 2 kettlebells and you row one KB in, alternating each side) but the same goes for the Turkish Get Up (kettlebell overhead - go from standing to lying and back again, keeping the KB overhead).

They are both 'love / hate' exercises - I would probably not say they were my favourite in the middle of a set, but they give you amazing results and atisfaction. I love simple swings, too, though. Such a simple, yet effective, way to get the blood pumping!

Q: Can men do the Kettlebelle Body Workout or is it just for the girls?

KettleBelleBody is not just for girls! But I decided I wanted to give women out there a programme that was for them first and foremost, answering their needs, frustrations and concerns. The flexibility of the schedule was designed to appeal to the busy woman, but guys are in the same boat and would benefit equally from that aspect.

The workouts themselves are as easy or as hard as you make them - if you take the harder options you will get a killer workout, no doubt, male or female. I use the same workouts with my male clients and they love them, and are getting fantastic results. The difference is usually that the guys will use heavier weights (although I use 2 x 16kg KBs and a 20kg for all exercises - most guys would be challenged plenty starting there!

There are options in the workouts themselves to take a slightly easier or harder variation - for example a lot of people cannot do renegade rows, so will do 1 arm rows. You can use the detailed exercise manual separately to practice new moves, before incorporating them into the workouts.

Q: Good. Now I won't feel too feminine when I give em a go! I really like your complexes you've designed and I can say that it isn't an airy fairy girly program where you do 20 arm curls with 2kg dumbbells. How do you convince your women that they are not going to get any fat loss results training the way that most people do?

I think by the time people come to me they usually realise that what they are doing just isn't working! They are desperate to find out what will work and kettlebell training, once explained, just makes so much sense. Quick, flexible workouts in the comfort of your own home, maximising your exercise time, not only means you will get great results from the actual workouts, but also means you are more likely to actually be able to work out in the first place!

Any programme will only work if you actually do it, consistently, so for many this is key. The fact that the workouts are challenging but customisable means they can fit in to the busiest of schedules, but also means there is infinite variety - your mind and body need that to get results, and keep you fired up about your training.

Combining smart training with rest, recovery and nutrition is the key, and having a support network also makes a huge difference in compliance and motivation, so I encourage people to join my network (Mission Slim-Possible) once they have bought the book, where they can ask me and fellow KettleBelles any questions, or just to talk to other like-minded people with similar goals (and a shared 'love/hate' for the Turkish Get Up!).

I'll also be using that site to run a 6 week KettleBelleBody Transformation
Challenge in the New Year (starting 2nd Jan - takes us right up to 14th Feb so perfect timing for looking and feeling hot for that big date or night out!). I'm there on a regular basis, answering questions and giving support and encouragement - almost like having your own trainer!

Nice work Caroline, thanks for your time. You've given some great fat burning exercises and answers for women (and men) to get rid of any of those Christmas drinks that you will be consuming at this time of year.

Also, guess who she asked to throw in a couple of bonuses for her program as well?

Yep, I've given up my Little Black Dress Workout and my 13.5 Healthy Meals in 13.5 Minutes that I was only going to release with my Aussie Fatblast Success System.

Yeah, Caroline's a persistent girl!

I'll email you a food diary template and you can fill out everything you eat for a week and I'll give you my 2 cents on how you can use the Kettlebelle Body workout and my nutrition feedback to accelerate your fat loss results.

Sydney Fat Loss Expert Shares Top 3 Secrets to Keep Off Weight this Festive Season

2008-12-04T10:05:00.001+11:00

Daniel Munday, one of Sydney’s premier fat loss experts and creator of the Aussie Fatblast Online Success System, today revealed the top three secrets to ensure that you can get through the festive season without piling on unwanted pounds.

Munday says “You have two options at this time of year. You can be like most people and write off December and be behind the eight ball come January 1 just like every other year. Or you can choose the smart option and implement these three little secrets that are guaranteed to increase your chance of staying in shape through this festive season without having to deal with the weight gain of previous years”.

Yesterday on my other blog I created a list of things that I was thankful for.

Seeing as today is Thanksgiving Day over in the States, I wanted to continue the post as I realised after posting that there were a few other things that I am thankful for.

So, here is part 2 of my Gratitude post.

* First and foremost, I am thankful for my health. I have realised through injuries I have had in the past that we often take our health for granted until you don't have it. I try not to do that anymore.

* I am thankful for being able to live in the best country in the world.

* I am thankful for being able to work in a city like Sydney and in locations that people travel half way around the world to visit.

* I am thankful that my girlfriend is an amazing cook

* I am thankful for my mates that I have had since I was at school.

* I am thankful that I am my own boss and don't have to work under people that I do not respect any longer

* I am thankful that I have never been tempted to try cigarettes or illegal drugs

* I am thankful for that first sip of a cold beer on a hot day

* I am thankful that I am able to pick up my new car tomorrow and be in a position to be able to purchase one

* I am thankful for the weekend away with my family that I will be enjoying tomorrow

* I am thankful that Christmas is only 5 weeks away from today and that I get to spend time with my family over this period

* I am thankful for the tough times that I have endured because they have made me who I am today

Your Secret Weight Loss Tip - Protein, Protein, Protein

2008-11-22T15:01:00.001+11:00

Whenever you hear somebody give you their latest tip to help increase your weight loss results, you can guarantee that there will be something different given out each time as the latest and greatest fad that will "definitely work for you".

The one tip that is rarely ever spoken about however is to ensure that you eat protein with each and every single meal. Why is protein so beneficial? There are a number of reasons but let me start from the top.

The most important reason why you should be having some type of protein with each and every meal that you eat each day is because it increases your body's sense of fullness.

What does this mean? Well, to put it simply, you will not be as hungry after eating something that has protein as the major ingredient. You will feel fuller longer. Compare this to if you eat something that is highly processed and full of sugars like potato chips. Your body will be craving them and without a doubt you will be feeling hungry again almost as soon as you finish your mouthful and you will want to eat more and more without ever getting that sense of fullness until you have stuffed yourself silly.

Another great reason is because protein is also known as the body's building block. It is used to repair your muscles after training and exercise. By having protein you will be helping repair those muscles that you have exhausted during your session and it will help you emerge leaner and stronger as a result.

Now that you know two reasons why protein is essential to your daily diet requirements, what are the best sources for you to get this protein?

Glad you asked! The best sources are those that are fresh and natural. Good examples include lean meats like turkey and chicken breast; lean red meats are also a good source. Eggs, nuts, seeds, lentils, tofu, and beans are also all great ways to get your protein intake each day. You could even include Greek yoghurt as a good protein source as this has little human interference. Being a vegetarian is no excuse as you saw some great examples above that are vegetarian options.

Protein is an essential component of every meal that you have from breakfast right through to your after dinner snack. Once you realise the importance that protein plays in your weight loss role, only then will you be able to finally achieve the body that you deserve and rightly desire.

Are you sick of the way you look? Daniel Munday is a Fat Loss Expert based in Sydney, Australia who is dedicated to separating the fitness fact from fiction in helping you solve your fat loss puzzle.

Press Release: Sydney Fat Loss Small Business Owner Fires Up

2008-11-20T09:52:00.001+11:00

For Immediate Release

20th November, 2008

Successful Local Fat Loss Small Business Owner Defies Christmas Party Downsizing

Daniel Munday
DPM Performance
http://www.dpmperformance.com.au

Daniel Munday, one of Sydney’s premier fat loss experts and owner of the DPM Performance group training business, today fired back at the corporate scrooges who are downsizing their Christmas parties due to the current economic situation.

In what seems a strange position for a fitness professional to take, especially with the drinking and eating binges that Christmas parties are often known for, Munday is disappointed that 48 per cent of companies are allegedly slashing their Christmas party budgets in half, while a third of business surveyed recently are not having any party at all. “This is the time of year that companies should be rewarding their staff and clients for their efforts over the past 12 months”

He went on to say “I know that I will personally be stepping up my annual Christmas Cans event to reward the efforts of my loyal clients who have really excelled beyond expectations this year”. In fact, in a secret sneak peak, Munday has revealed he will be giving his clients who attend a personal thank you present and a special incentive for them to strive to greater heights in 2009.

The DPM Performance Christmas Cans event is a highly anticipated event each year with clients keen to let down their hair and socialise in a much more relaxed environment then the sweaty training gear usual sessions that they are used to.

Munday said "You don’t have to go overboard with these celebrations but it is essential to acknowledge the efforts and continued support of loyal people like I am lucky enough to have. These valued clients have helped my business thrive despite the so called tougher economic times”.

Press Release: 12 Days of Fitness

2008-11-18T10:23:00.003+11:00

Leading Fitness Experts Give The Gift Of Health To World With Biggest Ever Health and Fitness Giveaway This Festive Season

On Wednesday, December 10, Dax Moy and over 250 of the world's top fitness professionals will open the doors on the World’s largest ever health and fitness gift-giving, set to generate positive health for over 500,000 people this Christmas

The program, called ’12 days of fitness’ initially began when the UK's leading fitness professional, Dax Moy, wanted to express his gratitude to his clients and offered them a gift a day for 12 consecutive days as his twist of the 12 Days of Christmas.

Last year Moy shared this idea with fellow fitness professional Pat Rigsby and they expanded the 12 Days of Fitness to include not only their own clients but to the world at large and gave fitness gifts to over 200,000 people who signed up at the site at http://www.12daysoffitness.com.

This year, with the help of 250 of the world's top personal trainers, nutritionists, therapists and specialist fitness experts, the 12 days of fitness is set to become the biggest fitness gift giveaway in history with expected downloads of over 500,000 between the 10th and 22nd of December. "There’s never been another health event like this, where so many people stand to benefit from the expertise of true professionals for free” says Moy who has been working flat out to make this year’s 12 days a success.

“Fitness professionals from around the globe have contributed hundreds of e-books, reports, videos, meal plans and other free gifts in their hope of making 2009 the year that anyone, regardless or their location, financial situation or past failures, can finally reach their fitness goals and make those New Year's Resolutions a reality once and for all.”

Perhaps the best part of the 12 Days of Fitness giveaway is that regardless of a persons health or fitness goals, there are going to be gifts specifically designed to help them achieve success.

"We've received gifts designed for busy mom's, elite athletes, bodybuilders, back pain sufferers and pretty much anyone else you can imagine covering everything from fat loss to rehabilitation and everything in between.

There literally will be something for everyone this year and all of it free, making it, without a doubt, one of the most important gifts anyone will receive this year. After all, what’s more important than health?”

The 12 days of gift giving starts December 10th but those interested are urged to visit www.12daysoffitness.com right away to sign up for their free gifts.

Once enrolled, participants will get a daily email telling them how to access each of the new gifts that are being added each day as well as a reminder on how to access previous gifts.

To guarantee a healthy start to 2009, simply visit http://www.12daysoffitness.com today.

2008-11-15T15:20:00.001+11:00

Does Fruit Make You Fat?

2008-11-13T08:47:00.002+11:00

I could make this a really short article and say NO and that would be it. But that would not really be a good look would it? Surely you need to be convinced why fruit will not make you fat, especially when there is all of the rubbish out there from people who advocate no carb diets right?

The people who preach about the no carb diets claim that all carbohydrates make you fat while at the same time tell you to consume their miracle weight loss drink that is full of artificial sweeteners. Don't you think this is a bit of a contradiction? Remember, these artificial sweeteners will actually make you eat more because your body's full receptors are turned off.

I would forget everything that they have told you right now and I will now show you why fruit does NOT make you fat. Yes, fruit is full of sugar. But it is natural sugar. It is sugar that your body needs.

The main reason why you should be eating fruit is simply because of all the vitamins and minerals that are contained in a simple piece of fruit.

Did you know that there are over 10,000 vitamins and minerals in an apple that have been discovered. Note that is not all there is, that is just the ones that have been discovered. And that is just from one little apple.

Your body needs fruit just like your car needs petrol.

If I had a choice of getting my sugar intake for the day from the 3 to 4 servings (at least) of fruit that I eat or from having a couple of sugars with my coffee, or by having bread for breakfast you should know what my answer would be.

It would be the fruit of course.

Embrace fruit as part of your fat loss mission and that will be one piece of the fat loss puzzle solved.

I definitely encourage you to reduce your carbohydrate intake to promote faster fat loss but that means reducing the processed carbs from your diet especially breads.

You should be snacking on fruit as a mid morning or mid afternoon snack option but don't forget the one big secret tip that will accelerate your fat loss results. Make sure you have protein with your fruit. Examples of this would include having raw nuts with your piece of fruit or having some fruit and yoghurt together.

Don't fear fruit. Fear the people who are trying to sell you their artificial supplements when you should be focusing on fresh fruits and vegetables, along with lean protein sources to maximise your fat loss and to ensure you have the body that you deserve.

Are you sick of the way you look? Daniel Munday is a Fat Loss Expert based in Sydney, Australia who is dedicated to separating the fitness fact from fiction in helping you solve your fat loss puzzle.

He specialises in giving busy Corporate Professionals the fat loss results they deserve and now you can finally share in his once secret methods via his Aussie Fatblast Success System - the fat loss solution for busy professionals in 20 minutes or less.

Lest We Forget

2008-11-11T09:41:00.002+11:00

Today I am going to take a change in the direction of this blog.

It is Remembrance Day today - 90 years to the day that World War 1 (supposedly the war to end all wars) ended and unfortunately we are still having wars to this day.

I would like to take the time today to remember those who have given their lives for our great country and to thank them and those who serve us.

Lest we forget the memories of those who have passed on doing what most of us would never think about doing.

Thankyou

Want a Great Upper Body Fat Loss Exercise?

2008-11-08T12:59:00.005+11:00

Boxing for Fat Loss

2008-11-06T08:40:00.001+11:00

Have you ever thought about a boxing circuit as a great way to increase your fat loss results?

Check out the following Aussie Fatblast video to see how you can add variety to your training for fat loss program

The Melbourne Cup of Fat Loss Results

2008-11-04T09:09:00.005+11:00

Today is Melbourne Cup Day for us Aussies, so Australians around the country will be lining up for a punt and enjoying what is without a doubt the most unproductive day on the corporate calendar for most business people.

The attitude seems to be why have a public holiday when you can drink on the bosses money!

Anyway for those of us who are self employed, business will run as usual but I will still be tuning in after my workout at 3pm for the big race.

So, what does the Melbourne Cup have to do with your fat loss results?

The Melbourne Cup is a race of 3200 metres - 2 miles so it is definitely a race for stayers.

Your race for fat loss is also a staying race.

It is not like a 100 metres dash for cash, a race that is over in the blink of an eye.

You must be in the race for your ultimate fat loss results for the long term.

You must be the one finishing strong down the straight, like hopefully my horse will be at about 3:05 this afternoon!

Be a stayer and then you will achieve the body that you deserve.

Don't let fear hold you back!

Don't Let Fear Hold You Back

2008-11-01T13:46:00.003+11:00

I just finished reading a great email from a very happy Aussie Fatblast Client.

She said that in the past she had let fear hold her back and was afraid to take action but after reading my motivating emails she is now ready to roll and take action.

I don't want to name names but when she reads this she will know who she is - and let me just say she is putting to shame people who say they are too old to change their old ways.

Age is a number, not a barrier.

The big thing that makes all the difference to one's ability to achieve their ultimate fat loss results is that they take action.

They don't put it off and say I'll start when so and so finishes or when the weather is warmer... or cooler... or whatever.

Take the lead of a soon to be successful Aussie Fatblast annihilation success story and get amongst it.

More importantly, don't let fear hold you back!

The Real Truth About Bread and Your Weight Loss

2008-10-28T17:13:00.004+11:00

Time and time again I have been asked if bread is okay to eat as part of a healthy eating plan.

We have all been sold on the benefits of bread, especially multi-grain bread from nutritionists from around the world.

But I am going to let you in on a big secret here.

The only difference between this secret and a normal secret is you can tell as many people as you like about this one!

The real truth about bread and your weight loss is that it is killing your weight loss mission.

Unfortunately, there are no two ways about it.

You have been lied to and I know how you feel.

I used to be a victim of these lies too.

I used to enjoy my multi-grain bread as my so-called "healthy eating" option.

Bread is a no-no when it comes to achieving your fat loss goals.

Bread leaves your belly bloated and feeling sluggish.

Bread spikes your sugar and energy levels only to see you crash a short time later.

Bread is the silent killer of your fat loss and weight loss mission.

Can the bread and you will finally get the body that you deserve.

So, what should you eat instead of bread?

I'll cover this in another posting but you can find out the real truth about fat loss by getting your hands on the Aussie Fatblast Secret Guide to Smart Eating.

Don't let fear hold you back!

Healthy Eating Has Never Been This Easy Before

2008-10-25T14:05:00.003+11:00

If I had a dollar for every time that I have been told that "I don't have the time to cook when I get home" I certainly wouldn't be looking for a winner at Moonee Valley today.

I'd be rolling in it.

But unfortunately, people don't pay me everytime they say the above line.

Maybe I should start charging but that is a story for another day.

I'm a busy person and when I have to cook I need the meals to be easy to make but more importantly, I need them to be super quick.

That is where the idea for the 13.5 Healthy Recipes in 13.5 Minutes or Less came from.

This is just one of the bonus manuals you can get your hands on when you join the increasing crowd who have made a smart investment in the Aussie Fatblast Success System.

You can find out some of my secret stir fry healthy recipes, my mexican feast, a great tasting omlette, and some quick breakfast options.

But by far and wide, my all time favourite desert is included inside.

I call it a banana paddlepop.

What is it?

You will just have to read the manual to find out!

You can find out about all of these recipes and more as part of the Aussie Fatblast Success System where the price goes up at 12 midnight (PST).

It's Like Banging Your Head Against a Brick Wall

2008-10-21T08:40:00.006+11:00

Sometimes the more things change the more they stay the same.

I get to witness a bit in my travels as a Sydney Fat Loss Expert but more and more often I still see the same types of mistakes that people are making when it comes to their training methods.

I am assuming these people are training for fat loss as they seem to be carrying a bit of extra baggage (no disrespect intended) so I want to take a few minutes to dispell a few fitness myths, and fat loss myths.

Myth # 1:

You don't want to train heavy 'cause you'll get big.

I am seeing this more and more often. Maybe it's becoming more prominent because the weather is warming up here and more and more people are training outside.

But it is time this myth is put to rest once and for all.

If you are female YOU WILL NOT GET BIG if you train with heavy weights.

One of my favourite things is to see my clients, especially my female clients lifting more weight or doing chin ups without any assistance when other people are training light and training like a princess!

You need to lift a force that will allow you to burn more body fat.

This counts for you too fellas.

This morning I saw a big fella doing skull crushers with weight plates that would've equalled 5 kilos on each hand.

Not heavy enough champ.

Besides, the skull crushers aren't really a big bang for your buck exercise to maximise fat loss results is it?

More training myths on Thursday and I might even address the big bang theory of mine.

Until then, I strongly recommend you check out the Aussie Fatblast Success System to find out how you should be training!

We aren't afraid to go heavy here.

You shouldn't be either.

The Tide is Starting to Turn

2008-10-16T08:07:00.002+11:00

It seems that the tide is starting to turn finally.

More and more of my clients are starting to realise that what I tell them about nutrition actually works!

I am noticing more and more of them getting the bodies they deserve just in time for the warmer weather.

So, what are they doing right?

To start off they are eliminating as much processed food out of their diet as possible.

That means getting rid of wheat and gluten as much as possible. That rubbish only leaves you bloated and sluggish.

Yes - that includes bread. Bread is not a healthy eating option, despite what most nutritionists will tell you.

The other big one is to limit alcohol consumption.

That one should be a no-brainer.

Of course all of these tips you will find in the Aussie Fatblast Secret Guide to Smart Eating that will be available for official release very, very soon!

Try implementing some of these tips if you need to increase your fat loss results and I can guarantee you won't be disappointed!

One of My Favourite Upper Body Exercises

2008-10-14T22:22:00.001+11:00

Tough gig this one - the 1 Arm Floor Chest Press.

Use a kettlebell if you have one otherwise a dumbbell works fine.

I recommend you only work one side of your body at a time so that your obliques work a little harder to try and stabilise the weight on the side holding the kettlebell.

Give it a shot.

Don't let fear hold you back!

Is Greek Yoghurt Good or Bad For You?

2008-10-09T09:31:00.003+11:00

My girlfriend had a great question for me the other day.

She likes to train hard and practices healthy eating like a lot of women these days.

But she had a great question.

She is smarter than the average person when it comes to nutrition.

That comes from the benefit of growing up in a sporting environment (and maybe listening to me rant on about different topics too!), so I am certain that she is not the only one confused by the food myths about nutrition that are out there today.

This question revolved around whether Greek yogurt is healthy for us considering it is higher in fat than other yogurt varieties.

It was a great question. Now it is time to bust some myths.

Greek yogurt is a great source of nutrition because it has minimal human interference.

This means that it does not have any artificial sweeteners, flavours, colours or any numbers or words that are too hard to pronounce.

That is always the giveaway that a food choice is not a good choice. If it has an ingredients list as long as your arm then it has been removed of any good that it initially had.

Greek yogurt is higher in fat than most other varieties of yogurt because it has not been poisoned with artificial sweeteners that are used to add taste once the fat has been taken out of something.

The danger of artificial sweeteners is they remove your body's ability to detect when you are full. This means that you are more prone to keep on eating and eating, meaning your waist line gets even bigger.

Foods that have natural fat have a tendency to fill you up so you don't need to eat as much. This is the same for foods that are high in protein.

Next time you are in the cold section of your supermarket I challenge you to compare the labels of Greek yoghurt (not fat free or low fat or course) with that of any yoghurt variety. While you are there, compare the same two yogurts with a low or fat free yoghurt and you will see how many more processed chemicals and rubbish is contained in them.

Don't be a victim of marketing that states that low fat foods and fat free foods are better for you. They are making your waist line bigger.

Don't believe all of the rubbish that you read in magazines or newspapers or from "Personal Trainers" and some nutritionist who have their heads stuck in the sand and are recycling the same out of date information that they were taught in college years ago.

Take the word of a real world fat loss expert who has been to the dark side and returned. Meaning of course, that I don't eat fat free or low fat foods anymore because I realise how bad they are to my fat loss mission. I hope that you will join me.

Loving Hill Sprints

2008-10-08T13:13:00.005+11:00

I love training outside in the great outdoors.

I had a cancellation this morning coz a client was sick so I had some time to kill before my next session.

I had a couple of choices:

1) Read my latest Dan Kennedy monthly newsletter

2) Train

3) Waste it by doing nothing

If you've been reading my stuff for a while now you'll realise that number 3 wasn't even an option and I'll get my Dan Kennedy reading session in later this arvo which meant there was only 1 other option left.

Of course I had a great training session.

Time was short, I had about 15 minutes to get things done.

So I parked the car at Observatory Hill and got stuck into some road hill sprints - one of my recommended exercises to maximise fat loss in the Aussie Fatblast program.

I knocked over 10 Hill Sprints, simply just sprinting up the hill - which is a good incline and long length by the way and walked down for my recovery.

My lungs were bursting after reaching the top and the walk back down the hill had the legs feeling a bit jelly like but that's the name of the game.

Maximise fat loss results in minimal time - Aussie Fatblast style.

Don't let fear hold you back - just get out and do it!

Playground Workout - Variety Workout

2008-10-06T20:50:00.005+11:00

When I feel like something a little more out of the ordinary than your usual workout, I like to head up the road to the local park and get in a great Aussie Fatblast style outdoors workout

There's a couple of great sets of playground equipment full of all different sorts of things that kids play on.

Maybe I'm just a big kid at heart but I love my playground workout when I get one in.

Just check out todays set:

Light bodyweight warm up of incline push ups and recline rows x 2 sets

Chin Ups or Pull Ups variations playing around with grip - close grip, wide grip, mixed grip you name it supersetted with Decline Push Ups

I knocked out 10 sets but let me confress that the rep total wasn't exactly 10 for every set (more like 5 for the last few rounds!) and the form wasn't exactly all the way down on the last couple of sets - although I did make up for it with holding at the top of the chin up and hanging at the bottom for 5 seconds each set.

Still a bloody hard workout and I can tell I'm gonna be sore tomorrow and the workout was only 3 hours ago!

Check it out for yourself - 15 minutes and that was it and I was puffed and sore.

No weights needed - just your own bodyweight and some playground equipment.

no more excuses for not working out.

Get to it and don't let fear hold you back...

The Maniac's Got Me Pumped!

He is know as the Maniac because of his passion and his drive and I left the line with a great insight to the man himself and some great pointers for getting things happening in my life.

If you have been reading my stuff for a while now, you would know that I don't usually plug other peoples products very often.

Well today, I'm going to make an exception as this ground-breaking program really gets the Aussie Fatblast thumbs up.

One of my mates, and fellow mastermind group member BJ Gaddour's Workout Muse is a must check out for any fitness pro or person just keen to train seriously.

The end result, is you don't have to look at your stopwatch to know when to stop and go and you can concentrate on maximising your BURN baby!

You can check out the workout muse phenomenon and download your free sample workout track (which is a great interval set that I like to do from time to time) here.

He's got some killer content and bonuses to match - I even get a jersey on his bonuses!

Get Outside and Burn Body Fat With This Fatblasting Workout

2008-09-25T07:07:00.003+10:00

I have just had this article published by ezinearticles.com.

My favourite training location for getting a sweat on and burning some of that good ol' body fat is to get outside and get stuck into some outdoor training.

If you have not done much training recently, make sure you first have a clearance from your doctor and substitute the sprints that I am about to give you for some fast power walking.

If you are in a regular training pattern and with no injuries, there are no excuses - it is time to work and burn fat!

As always you need a good warm up to ensure that you are not going to injure yourself. Try jogging up the hill and jogging down, perform 10 Squats and 10 Push Ups then jog backwards up the hill and forwards down again. Repeat this warm up three times.

Now you should be warm and ready for action.

Begin with a Bear crawl up the hill. To do this get down on all fours and crawl like a bear it is that simple! As for all exercises, make sure you are sucking in your belly button to protect your lower back. When you get to the top, jog backwards down the hill and sprint to the top. Make sure there are no obstacles in your way when jogging backwards downhill.

Once you are at the top, crab walk down the hill. To do this, sit on the ground facing downhill with your hands facing forward. Now lift your backside off the ground and walk yourself down the hill with your hands and feet. That is one set. Your goal is to repeat this five times through.

Once you are done, and if you still have got some energy in the tank you can try the crab walk uphill, bear crawl downhill, sprint uphill, and jog backwards downhill to complete one set. Repeat this set five times.

Survived that one? Your next challenge is to make your way to the grandstand or bleachers if your park has one. Starting on the bottom step, plyometric jump your way up the stairs to the top. Make sure you land soft on the balls of your feet and squat down as you land, so you are ready to go straight into the next plyometric jump. Your back should not hurt when you do these. Walk back down and repeat this five times if it is a small grandstand or if it is a big grandstand jump all the way to the top and that should have you toasted.

100 Days To Go

2008-09-23T09:57:00.002+10:00

Did you realise that there is only 100 days to go until we pop the champagne corks and welcome in 2009.

What?

It seems like only a couple of months ago we started this year.

Time flies when you're having fun doesn't it!

Anyway, I decided to fire up a challenge to myself - Dax Moy's Magic Hundred Program.

The challenge is for you to cross off 100 goals in 100 days.

It does not matter if you don't get 100 goals but you've gotta brain storm and get as many as possible.

Even though I am starting another Magic Hundred today I will still be adding to the table when something hits me that I should be achieving.

My tips for your own Magic Hundred?

Make some goals easy to accomplish goals - maybe calling a family member a week to keep in touch.

Make some goals challenging ones such as getting at least 7 hours sleep each night. I know that is a challenge for some people - myself included sometimes.

Make some goals seemingly impossible to accomplish. This one I am keeping under my hat because it's a biggy.

If this sounds like something that you should be doing check out http://www.the-magic-hundred.com/

The Dogg's In Trouble

2008-09-19T15:48:00.004+10:00

I was reading yesterday that Nate Dogg, the gangsta rapper of Regulate and Nobody Does It Better fame has suffered his second stroke in a year during the week.

It may seem a bit of a surprise to some of you but back in my youth, as a teen and even into my early 20's I used to love my gangsta rap.

No, I'm not a whigga, I just used to like gettin' down with tha pound.

I still don't mind a bit of it these days.

Now back to tha Dogg. Nate Dogg is only 39 and it seems pretty young for someone to suffer not one, but two strokes so I did a little digging.

I know this bloke would have smoked his share of chronic (to borrow a word from Dr Dre's classic that he appeared on) which no doubt would have contributed to his unfortunate situation.

But the big telling point when I dug a little further was that the stroke was caused by his unhealthy eating habits and lifestyle.

Unfortunately for the big fella, he is struggling and not in a good way. Being fed via a tube.

He also has very limited movement.

For a 39 year old bloke to have 2 strokes in a year when he should be in the prime of his life should be a big kick up the backside for all of us.

You simply cannot take your health for granted.

If you practice unhealthy eating habits it catches up with you.

Good luck with your recovery Nate Dogg, I wanna hear that you're back in the game.

Don't let fear hold you back from living a healthy lifestyle.

Start training the Aussie Fatblast way today.

Inspiration Hit Of The Day

2008-09-18T07:04:00.003+10:00

Last night I caught a great doco on ABC 2 – The Boy Who Sees Without Eyes.

No, it wasn’t some weirdo science fiction story. It was the real deal Hollyfield.

This bloke Ben, a 14 year old kid who has been totally blind since he was 3. he had his eyes totally removed so there isn’t just a small little bit of sight that he sees.

It is nothing.

The amazing thing about Ben was that he can actually see an outline of what is in front of him.

He doesn’t use a cane.

He doesn’t use a guide dog.

He doesn’t see himself as disabled.

The young fella is able to see by making a clicking sound and listening for the way the sound rebounds off a solid surface.

Pretty amazing hey!

Now, I didn't pay much attention in science class but it makes sense as the sounds would have different wavelengths when they rebound off something solid.

The example to take out of this is to open your doors of perception – sounds like something that Jim Morrison would’ve said, right?

Realise that our boundaries are self imposed.

Take Ben’s example and don’t use excuses on why you can’t do something.

Find the way that you can do something.

That my friends, is inspiration for you.

Don’t let fear hold you back

Never Say Never

2008-09-16T11:20:00.003+10:00

Sunday Afternoon I was relaxing and watching the finals footy action at home.

The Melbourne Storm were odds on favourites to beat the New Zealand Warriors.

The Storm took out the Minor Premiership for the third year running and the Warriors just crept in to the Top 8.

Never before had the 8th placed team beat the 1st place in the finals system.

In fact, when I was on my Sportingbet account having a few bets, the Warriors were paying something like $7.50 or a win in a 2 horse race!

I wouldn't have even backed the Warriors with your money.

Well as you can probably guess if you don't follow the NRL, the Warriors made history and beat the Storm in the dying minutes of the game, scoring an amazing length of the field try.

End result: Storm players shattered, Warriors players jubilant that their season is still alive and the finals format thrown into kaos.

Warriors captain Steve Price said that only 17 people believed that they could cause an upset.

That's the lesson here.

When everyone else writes you off - you gotta believe.

Don't listen to what people are saying.

Step up and show what you can do.

The Warriors did on Sunday and I was impressed.

Let's see what happens next week...

Fat Loss Results So Good It Was Scary

2008-09-12T10:59:00.005+10:00

Yesterday was D-day for me.

I've been busting my butt training and being the Guinea Pig for my new smart eating template.

Since getting back from Europe and enjoying the food and drink over there, I was on a mission to get in to better shape than ever before.

So the Aussie Fatblast program got matched with the smart eating principles I've been keeping up my sleeve.

It was the remeasuring day for me yesterday.

How did it go?

Well, to tell you the truth, I was shocked.

In fact, I was kinda scared by how well it went.

Here's the low down:

5/6/08 - back from Europe
Waist: 88cm
Hips: 100.5cm

11/9/08 - Yesterday
Waist: 82.4cm
Hips: 97.8cm

So, that's 5.6cm OFF the waist - and there really wasn't a massive waist to start with

plus 2.8cm off the hips - no wonder why my jeans were falling down without the belt.

AND a loss of 4.5kg on the scales.

Holy you know what.

I knew my fat loss results worked, hey, I've seen it with clients, but when I combined the Aussie Fatblast training template with my new smart eating principles, the fat loss results were just out of this world.

Even I was surprised.

That is how good it went!

So if my Aussie Fatblast methods work for someone who didn't have heaps of body fat to lose to start with, imagine what it can do for someone who has got a bit to drop.

Simple story, the Aussie Fatblast training methods work, and work pretty damn good if I might say so myself.

I am going to be revealing my inner most training secrets next month, so you will have to stay on edge until then.

But it will be worth the wait.

You can bank on that.

Don't let fear hold you back!

Does Pollution Make Babies Fat?

2008-09-09T10:40:00.002+10:00

I was reading in the paper yesterday how a new study has come out showing that babies are born fat because of the pollution in the air that their mum’s are inhaling.

Give me a break.

For starters, babies are NOT born fat.

It is the crap that their parents feed them that makes them fat when they are toddlers.

Those toddlers grow up to be kids that are fat who grow up to be big adults.

It is not rocket science.

That is the same reason why their parents are fat too.

It is not some recessive gene that makes them that way.

A very small majority of the population are fat because of their metabolism and genetic reason.

The rest, well sometimes you just gotta be responsible for what goes in your mouth, and especially that of your kid as you have a responsibility to provide for them until they are old enough to make their own decisions.

I have never seen a new born baby, and I’ve seen a few over the last couple of years come out overweight.

There are a couple who are big babies but that is a healthy big. They don’t have a big stomach hanging over their nappies.

They don’t get out of breath just from crying.

Some people have gotta stop making excuses and start training Aussie Fatblast style

No excuses.

What Does Serena Williams and Aussie Fatblast Have In Common

2008-09-08T18:21:00.006+10:00

I just noticed on the news that Serena Williams gave Jelena Jankovich a touch up in the final of the US Open.

AFter looking at Serena Williams massive frame for a tennis player I know a couple of things.

Her training would definitely NOT comprise of single joint exercises like leg extensions and boring arm curls to work her guns.

Her training would comprise of multi joint exercises like Swings, Snatches and Front Squats just to name three awesome exercises.

As you can read in my free Aussie Fatblast Secrets Revealed Report, or listen to the audio if you'd rather throw it in your ipod - Multi Joint Exercises are king!

So, do as Serena Williams does and train those multi joint exercises to maximise your fat loss the Aussie Fatblast way.

Sabotaging Your Fat Loss

2008-09-06T13:54:00.003+10:00

I just sent an email to one of my DPM Performance clients regarding some feedback from her week.

She's been stuck at work and left to eat pretty ordinary food choices.

Which is only sabotaging her fat loss efforts.

Does this sound familiar?

Anyway, I thought I'd share with you my suggestions.

You are sabotaging your success with the take away choices. At least make sure you nail the nutrition side of things even if you can't get in all your normal training sessions.

Tips:

1) make double or triple on the weekend when you have the time and freeze or put in the fridge - that's an extra 2-3 meals that you don't have to cook during the week.

2) do that on both sat and sun and you have 4-6 meals.

3) cook a vege omlette that takes 6 mins. chop the veges while the egg is cooking in the pan and add a can of chickpeas or mixed beans for extra protein.

easy meals.

no excuses in future, you gotta plan ahead.

I posted on my other blog yesterday how the new look Aussie Fatblast inspired food pyramid should look.

Why I Love Spring

2008-09-04T16:56:00.003+10:00

It has finally arrived.

Spring I am talking about of course, although maybe today is not the day to be writing about it as it is overcast and sitting at about 16 degrees.

But it could be worse.

I love spring.

It is a great time of year.

People get outdoors and start training again, which can only be good for the DPM Performance business!

The weather is getting warmer and the winter clothes are shed until next year.

The footy finals kick off, although my Parramatta Eels won't be playing this year unfortunately.

The Bledisloe Cup and Tri Nations heat up - Go the Wallabies!

Life is good.

Make sure you give your workout a spring clean and get inspired with some Aussie Fatblast style workouts.

My Favourite All Time Exercise to Maximise Fat Loss

2008-09-02T10:25:00.003+10:00

This exercise is my all time favourite fat loss results producing exercise.

If you want to utilise your time effectively and get the biggest bang for your buck, you cannot go past the 1 Arm Snatch.

It works basically every muscle in your body and is one of the toughest, advanced exercises in the upcoming Aussie Fatblast Success Manual

Don't let fear hold you back!

Who's In Your Support Team?

2008-08-30T15:39:00.003+10:00

For Years now, my support team has been the books that I've read and the newsletters I subscribed to.

I used to have my own virtual mastermind meeting where I'd get my ideas and motivation from the things that I was reading or the business building products that I would buy.

They were good.

However, I have just started getting involved with some actual mastermind groups rather than just the virtual mastermind I used to hold with myself.

This is something that I am really excited about.

In fact, stay tuned because I have some exciting news coming up soon about an Aussie Fatblast mastermind group where we can come together to help accelerate our results, both fitness and fat loss wise as well as professionally.

It is essential to have this type of support network to make any endeavour a succesful one.

So, who's on your team?

Don't let fear hold you back!

Another Reason Not To Eat Deli Meat

2008-08-29T11:06:00.003+10:00

If you have been following my readings for anytime now, you will realise that I am not a fan of processed foods.

In fact, you should really be limiting your intake of this stuff if you want to optimise your fat loss.

If you are still eating this rubbish for lunch every day, here's a great reason to turf it.

Especially if you live in Canada.

It seems our Canadian friends have been dropping like flies after eating this rubbish.

15 people to date have died from eating contaminated deli meat from a plant in Toronto, while 29 cases of listeriosis have been confirmed with another 31 suspected.

I don't know about you, but I for one will not be tempted next time I'm at the supermarket.

Stick to Salmon, Tuna or grilled Chicken instead for your lunch meats.

Don't let fear hold you back

Sweet Home Alabama Has Got THIS Right!

2008-08-27T11:32:00.007+10:00

I spent 3 of the best summers of my life working in a summer camp in Alabama - Camp Laney for those of you with kids down south in the states, is THE place to send your kids by the way.

So, I've got a soft spot for the good 'ol southern state.

After reading this article they also get my thumbs up for their determination to take action on obsesity

The state workers of Alabama could do a lot worse than check out my Aussie Fatblast Secrets Revealed report to learn what they should and should not be doing to optimise their fat loss results.

Anyway, the Alabama law makers are imposing a fat tax where they will be charging overweight workers who don't lose body fat. Basically, they will have to pay their own health insurance premiums instead of having their employer pay for them.

This fat loss technique is a winner.

Controversial yes, but a winner none-the-less.

It seems that some of the workers that will be hit with this tax are not happy.

One commented that "Some people come into this world big".

Here's a newsflash for you lady. Not one baby is born fat! Take a look at any new born baby and while some are bigger than others, none are born fat!

They don't have a big gut hanging out over their little legs.

They don't have thighs that rub together when they kick their little legs.

Another bloke wasn't happy to be getting slugged with another tax. It seems that smokers also get taxed to in this wonderful state. Another awesome idea by the way!

Wake up to yourself mate.

You are eating and smoking yourself to an early grave.

Don't complain about your situation.

Do something about it.

Take action.

I for one am hoping that other state governments, especially down here in good old Sydney town will be jumping on board.

Morris Yemma, the ball is in your court bud.

It's My Shout Today

2008-08-25T11:04:00.002+10:00

How are you feeling today?

Post weekend blues?

Feeling great and refreshed and ready to take on the week?

I feel great. I had a great time catching up with family on the weekend, had an early night last night and when the 'opportunity clock' woke me up at 4:40am this morning I was feeling ready to roll.

I love it when I can get up at that time and not feel like all I'd rather do is sleep in. It makes me much more productive.

If you keep on reading right to the end, I will promise I'll make it worth your while, so enjoy my thoughts for the day and I hope you like my little present for you.

Now that the Olympics has wrapped up for another 4 years, I'd like to share with you my 2 favourite moments.

1 of them a gold medal moment and 1 a close second.

1 of them involves an Aussie, the other a bloke from another country that I've never even heard of - in fact to this day I can't even tell you his name.

Everyone has been talking and writing about the exploits of Phelps and Bolt and co. Now while I think Phelps is a legend and a freak, and Bolt, well call me suspicious on that one but that is a story for another day.

So I decided to share my 2 favourite Olympic moments that most mainstream people may have missed.

My first special memory and favourite moment I didn't even see live unfortunately.

You may have seen it yourself but unfortunately I just saw the highlights.

It involved a German weightlifter. A massive unit of a guy.

The sort of guy who could more than likely out eat any other athlete in the village -even Michael Phelps and his reputed 12,000 calories a day on his heavy training days.

The sort of guy who could probably clean and jerk a bus.

This bloke if you missed it won gold despite losing his wife of 3 years in a car crash just last year.

Can you imagine how that would throw your Olympic preparation into disarray?

Can you imagine how it would throw your life totally upside down, let alone just your Olympic preparation?

The big fella's name is Mattias Steiner - I just googled his name.

There he was standing on the medal dias collecting his medal with tears streaming down his face and clutching a photo of his wife.

The second one, as I said, involved an Aussie. She didn't win gold, but that is besides the point.

In January of this year cyclist Ana Mears was 2mm away - yes 2mm! - from severing her spinal cord in her neck.

That more than likely would've left Ana as a quadriplegic.

Ana broke her neck as well as suffering a handful of other injuries that I don't need to go into here.

Needless to say, this should have ended her Olympic dream.

But people forgot about Ana's fighting spirit.

They forgot that the Athens gold medalist wasn't going down without a fight.

She busted her butt in rehab.

She busted her butt in the gym.

She busted her butt on the track.

She made it to the games and most people could probably forgive her if she just put her feet up and cruised through thinking "I made it. That'll do me".

Not Ana.

She rode awesome and collected a silver medal for us, only going down to an English girl in the final.

There are two touching moments that stood out for me.

That is what sport is about my friends.

That is what life is about.

Cherishing every moment you have and appreciating all that you have.

Never giving up, no matter what the odds are that are stacked in front of you.

Now, for my special gift to you that I teased you with earlier.

I was lucky enough to score an interview with the World's Busiest Dad - Chris Lopez, the author of the Super Fit Dad Program for busy dads.

Chris is going to share with me some great secrets of his including:

* His # 1 fat loss tip

* His # 1 exercise to burn body fat every time

* A great lunch tip that everyone should know

plus many more great secrets.

It is roughly 40 minutes of no-holds barred information.

Download it to your Ipod or burn it to CD and listen to it on your way to work tomorrow.

Even if you are one of my female readers, this is still essential tips that you can get for yourself or even for your man.

A Workout Of Olympic Proportions

2008-08-21T08:55:00.003+10:00

I tell you what, I am STILL sore today.

And that was from Tuesdays workout!

It hurts to move my arms.

It hurts to feel my legs.

It hurts to laugh and I didn't even do ANY crunches or targeted ab work.

Do you want to know what I did?

I simply used one of my Aussie Fatblast workouts.

In fact, I used 2 of them back to back.

The Aussie Fatblast program I am embarking on at the moment sees me perform my usual supersets followed by my Pulse Intervals straight after leaving no room for prisoners but plenty of room for maximising fat loss!

Try this one on for size if you are game:

Dynamic Warm Up of:

Push Ups x 10
Spiderman Twists x 10
Side Plank 10 secs hold each side
Waiters Bow x 10
Squats x 10
Repeat x 3

Followed by this kick butt superset and interval fuelled workout.

1a) Deadlifts x 10
1b) Wide Grip Recline Rows x 10
Repeat x 2

2a) 1 Arm Squat Press x 10 on each side
2b) Decline Push Ups x 10

Repeat x 2

3a) Dumbbell Swing x 10
3b) Box Jumps x 10
Repeat x 2

I was already feeling smashed by then but i backed up with my Pulse Interval set on an exercise bike:
15 secs on, 45 secs off
30 secs on, 30 secs off
45 secs on, 15 secs off
60 secs on, 60 secs off

and i worked my way back down the sequence.

I must admit I needed to sit and and regain the feeling in my body afterwards.

But that's the price you have to pay for ultimate fat loss.

And I will be backing up again with something similar today.

Are you in?

Don't let fear hold you back

Olympic Fever and I've Got The Cure

2008-08-09T16:34:00.003+10:00

Yes, the Olympics are here. The once every 4 year condition where I want to switch off from regular day to day activities so I can watch the games on TV for 2 weeks.

Already today I have caught some of the Opals Womens Basketball Girls give Belarus a touch up, seen 2 of our girls in the Beach Volleyball get a win first up and now enjoying Cadel and the boys in the Mens Road Race.

I am looking forward to the Swimming, the Mens Basketball, the other Cycling events and to seeing Craig Mottram give it to the Kenyans on the track next week.

Bring on the gold for the Aussies and bring on the next 2 weeks.

I for one will be motivated by the inspirational performances and stories that I am sure we will witness.

I hope you can gain some motivation from joining me on the couch over the next 2 weeks.

The Truth About Fat Loss Gimmicks and the Magic Pill That Actually Does Work!

2008-08-06T13:38:00.003+10:00

I've just got notice that another one of my articles has been published on Ezine Articles.com

To save you the time of searching for it over there I have copied it down below:

Please let me know what you think in the comments section.

I have seen everything when it comes to the so called latest and greatest way to rip money out of your pocket. Sorry, I mean to get the fat loss results and the promised body that you have always desired.

First came the Ab Roller, followed by the Ab King Pro, the Vibratron 3000 and a bunch of other useless pieces of dust gatherers which promised the world but delivered little in terms of real world fat loss results without the big asterisk leading to a disclaimer that says you actually had to eat right. You may have missed that in the ads as it was so small I only found it when I had my glasses on.

Sure, I may have had a little bit of creative author's license with the Vibratron 3000 but I think you get the point. All of these gimmicks were designed to get us the fat loss results while we do not much at all.

Which is what most people want in life. A quick fix for everything.

The truth about fat loss is that if it sounds too good to be true, than it probably is. In most cases. I am about to share with you the fat loss secret that is actually as good as it sounds.

Did you know that there is actually a pill that will let you burn fat while you sit on your backside? I am being serious here. Sure, a pill is a strange way to label interval training but that is what it basically is.

When taken correctly as directed, this pill can boost your metabolism for up to 48 hours after you finish training and no, that is not a misprint.

This is because of a scientific theory called EPOC, which stands for Excess Post Oxygen Consumption. I will not get too technical here but basically you burn more calories after doing intense exercise than your mate at the gym who is doing the traditional aerobic training session (long boring cardio).

The best way to take your interval training pill is to do short bursts of high intensity exercise followed by recovery, or periods of less intensity. Perfect examples are hill sprints where you walk down the hill for recovery, or sprints on an exercise bike followed by slowly turning your legs over for the designated recovery period.

This pill gains superhuman results when you combine the interval training with another great form of exercise, the supersets method of resistance training.

The supersets method is where you perform one exercise for one body part, followed by another exercise for an opposite body part straight after without a rest.

Some people may choose to use an upper body exercise followed by a lower body exercise. Some people may choose to use a chest exercise followed by a back exercise or to use two full body exercises back to back.

Whatever method you choose will depend on your current fitness level, but the end result of supersets training is increased fat loss results and the boost in metabolism for up to 48 hours after your training session.

The only catch is you have to work hard and sweat your backside off but at least you will finally achieve the long lost fat loss results that you have been looking for.

Don't let fear hold you back. Take the next step.

Daniel Munday is a Sydney based Fitness Conditioner and creator of the Aussie Fatblast training method that gives busy corporate professionals the fat loss results they deserve in short workouts. It is the ideal fat loss solution for the busy person who does not have the time to exercise the traditional way.

Aussie Fatblast Takes On Fatblast Extreme

2008-08-01T16:33:00.005+10:00

As you may have seen on my last post below on the Aussie Fatblast blog, I was fired up after finding out about a product called Fatblast Extreme that actually takes the fat OUT of the foods that you eat!

See my thoughts on the matter in this short video.

Yes, I am fired up.

But I am SICK TO DEATH of the BS that is out there regarding fat loss.

Don't be fooled team, you need fat in your diet.

Read the Aussie Fatblast Secrets Revealed Manual and I will actually reveal to you why low fat food actually makes you fat.

If low fat food is bad for you, imagine what this gear does when it actually takes out the fat that is in your food!

Are You Freaking Kidding Me?

2008-07-26T11:53:00.007+10:00

I've seen the "future" of fat loss products.

Are You Freaking Kidding Me?

Unfortunately no.

When you find out what I am talking about you will realise why I had the words "future" in inverted commas.

You see I subscribe to Google Alerts to keep me up to date with latest information on certain key words that I am interested in.

One of those key words being Aussie Fatblast.

So guess what pops up in my inbox today on the latest google alert.

Generic Fatblast Extreme

So I was curious to see what else was called fatblast.

This is what the description of Generic Fatblast Extreme is (as copied from the webpage):

Fatblast Extreme is an advanced fat-binding supplement that removes fat from the foods you eat.

Are You Freaking Kidding Me?

Why on God's earth would you want to REMOVE the fat from the food that you eat?

Does this mean that if you eat nuts which are all protein and HEALTHY fats that all the goodness is taken out of them - making it wasted calories that you have just consumed.

Yep, it seems like it does.

Does that mean that fat people can eat whatever they want, Big Macs, Fries and all of that gear and have the fat automatically taken out of it?

Yep, it seems like it does.

But I guess I get the last laugh.

Underneath the section where it says Extreme Fatblast on the web all of the postings on every page are from my Aussie Fatblast videos from You Tube!

Hah!

Hopefully the poor people who have found that site by some misinformed person will see the links and finally learn the truth about what it takes to burn body fat.

If they read the Aussie Fatblast Secrets Revealed FREE report the misinformed punters will see why low fat foods are not good for us.

If low fat foods are no good for fat loss results, imagine how bad fat free foods are for you.

So if fat free foods are bad for you, can you understand the significance of how bad a supplement that actually REMOVES fat from your foods is?

I can't stress this enough.

Fat IS essential in your foods.

Don't be fooled by any man in a white coat who tries to tell you otherwise.

What Do Gordon Ramsay and I Have In Common?

2008-07-23T21:11:00.003+10:00

Did that title capture your eye?

So what do we have in common?

The use of the 'F Bomb'? Some may say yes.

A funny accent? Only if you are not from Australia you may think so.

A great chef? That is debatable although I think I go alright just quietly!

So, what do we have in common?

I just finished watching an episode of his show "The F Word" that I taped on Monday night. It's past my bedtime so i gotta tape it!

Anyway, Gordon said something that made me smile, apart from his frequent 'F Bombs'.

He mentioned how one of his colleagues was always harping on about the benefits of a low fat diet and how he thought it was all a load of ... well, you know what he would say about that!

Do you think that Gordon may have seen a copy of my Aussie Fatblast Secrets Revealed Report where on page 5 I talk about the real truth about low fat foods.

Chances are no, but did you read the report. If not why not?

I've also posted about this on here last month

With pioneering chefs like Gordon Ramsay leading the way, the mainstream will eventually catch on to the fact that low fat foods will actually make you fat.

Next time you're at the supermarket, forget about the processed low fat rubbish and go the real deal hollyfield or better still give the packaged stuff a miss and stick with fresh fruits, vegetables, protein sources and water.

Might sound boring to some, but they are the ones who have enough belly fat to last a summer in the Sahara.

Aussie Fatblast Recommends Fast Fat Away

2008-07-19T14:06:00.004+10:00

I've decided to start a new video type of posting, Aussie Fatblast Recommends.

This will be where I review a product that I have either purchased or have been sent to for review by the Author.

The idea is to give you the tools that you need to make a decision about whether something is for you or not.

I hope you will get some benefit out of it!

Today I tackle Fast Fat Away by a mate of mine, Brad Pilon, also known as Eat Stop Eat.

This is a VERY controversial 'anti diet' aimed at people who have tried and not gotten the fat loss results they want from the traditional diet methods

What do I have to say on the program?

WHAT CAN YOU LEARN FROM A BILLIONAIRE?

2008-07-16T22:02:00.002+10:00

One bloke I really look up to in the business world is Sir Richard Branson.

I would love to have lunch with him one day just to rack his brain and listen to his lessons that I am sure he would share.

Maybe if we did meet up one day I could swap some of my Aussie Fatblast secrets for a fit, slim body in exchange for some of his wisdom. What do you think?

Anyway, I was reading through my swipe file on motivational quotes, stories and words and I found this from the Virgin King.

Richard Branson's Three Keys to Entrepreneurial Success

1. Provide Untapped Value to the Customer: "The most critical thing with any new venture is we must deliver a tremendous value to the consumer so that it enhances all the ventures we've done before it," says Branson.

Today, the Virgin brand encompasses everything from soft drinks to airlines. Branson's approach has been to provide something unique in each venture; something the competition lacks. Find the value, find the customers.

2. Exploit a Passion: "I start businesses when I have a passion for something. That's also why I went into the airline business, even though everybody I talked to told me that there was no money to be made there.

I felt that I could make a difference. That's the best reason to go into business because you feel strongly that you can change things," says Branson. It's the entrepreneurial passion and attitude that makes the difference in achieving lasting success.

3. Trust Your Instincts: "A business has to be involving, it has to be fun, and it has to exercise your creative instincts." Case in point, the "rebel-billionaire" relied on gut instincts to take advantage of opportunities when they presented themselves.

Branson wasn't born wealthy, and began his empire by selling yet-to-be touched (i.e. "Virgin") records out of the trunk of his car when it was unheard of to do so. Slowly but surely, he built the expanded his business until it became the multi-billion dollar empire we know today. Mix a great idea with passion.

Did you learn anything yet? I know I did.

Thanks Richard!

GO YOU GOOD THING!

Today's post is something a little different, more of an inspirational story for us all.

I woke up this morning to hear the news that an Aussie is leading the Tour de France!

Cadel Evans survived a crash yesterday where he was bruised and battered to turn a 6 second deficit into a 1 second advantage.

Sure we are only 10 days into a 3 week journey but you can't help but admire the fighting spirit of the bloke.

I would love to see him get the biscuits on the final lap of the Champ Elysees in Paris to become the first Aussie to ever win the famous race.

I'll be cheering him home that's for sure!

ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST

2008-07-14T15:05:00.002+10:00

I'm feeling sore.

I finished my workout about 45 minutes ago and I am already hurting!

I love it.

Some say I'm a sadist.

Some say I'm worse.

But the same people who say that are the ones who wish they were fitter.

They wish they were slimmer.

They wish they didn't have that spare tyre.

Or their bingo wings.

The people who don't whinge are the ones that get results.

Want results?

Try this Aussie Fatblast inspired workout that I just got through at Observatory Hill:

Dynamic Warm Up. See the video here

1a) Decline T Push Ups x 10 (5 on each side)
1b) Mixed Grip Recline Rows x 10 (1 hand over hand grip, 1 hand underhand grip)
REPEAT x 2

2a) 1 Arm Squat Press x 10 each side
2b) 1 Arm Snatch x 10 each side
REPEAT x 2

3a) Rockin Hover x 1min
3b) Floor Trunk Extensions x 20
REPEAT x 2 but substitute Rockin Hover for Side to Side Hover in 2nd set

STRETCH

Enjoy the burn.

What's your excuse?

Fire UP!

WHO WANTS FREE FAT LOSS TIPS?

2008-07-13T20:04:00.008+10:00

Before I get I give you my free fat loss tips (it's a present that you definitely want to get your hot little hands on!), I just want to tell you about a trip down memory lane I had today.

We were at my Nan's house and I got to see 2 of my cousins (and one of their little girls) who I don't see a lot - one lives in New Zealand and the other in Griffith. So it was great to see them.

But the reason for mentioning this is because my sister was cleaning up and found an old video from my Nan and Pa's (who is no longer with us) 50th Wedding Anniversary.

It was from 17 years ago, and it was funny to see me with hair and wearing my Parra jersey.

But the real cool thing was spending the time with my extended family and laughing about how daggy we all looked (good old early nineties fashion was missing something I think!) and just enjoying each others company.

I hope you got the chance to do the same this weekend.

Anyway, let's get down to business.

THE AUSSIE FATBLAST SECRET IS OUT!

2008-07-08T09:52:00.003+10:00

It seems the world is starting to hear the news about Aussie Fatblast.

My subscribers list is building daily, so thank you to those who have signed up and I am getting more hits to my you tube and My Trainer videos each time I check in

See what Craig Ballantyne had to say about me here

It sure is nice to get a good wrap like that!

So how did I do it all?

With the help from the best of course.

Craig Ballantyne's Online Super Profits course literally has changed my business life.

I am so much more productive now as a result of attending his ground breaking seminar in November last year in sunny West Palm Beach Florida.

Even if you are not a fitness professional, if you want to start creating internet information products, you cannot go wrong with this seminar in a box.

I love relistening to all the info when I'm at CAU - that's what I call my car - Car Audio University - as everytime I am driving somewhere I am listening to something to take me towards my goals.

Are you? Or do you just listen to that same song 100 times on the radio?

What's your excuse?

Fire UP!

CHEAT YOUR WAY TO FAT LOSS

2008-07-07T10:59:00.000+10:00

Okay, I confess.

I cheated.

Yep, I got caught red handed.

What on earth am I talking about?

No, I didn't cheat on my girlfriend.

What I did cheat on though was my eating plan. And I do it every week!

I love my cheat meals.

They don't make up the whole part of my diet like some people and I don't have one every day.

But what I do allow myself is a total of 4 cheat meals a week.

I figure I eat over 40 meals a week - at least 6 a day and times that by 7 days in a week and you get 42.

As I am pretty active I eat a bit more than 6 meals a day on most days, normally every 2 hours or so.

So I figure if I have no more than 10% of my meals as cheat meals, I can still live my life and get the fat loss results that I want.

I also like to have my cheat meals on the weekend so I can remain discplined and focused throughout the week. The weekends are also the time that I am more likely to be out for dinner with friends and want to enjoy the menu - like the Lobster mornay I had on Saturday night!

What do I class as a cheat meal?

Anything with wheat or gluten in it for starters.

I don't eat that stuff during the week and rarely on a weekend.

Or anything that I would not classify as part of my healthy eating plan.

So that means any slices that my girlfriend might bake - she loves to bake!

Or that may mean having a drink, which I am not doing at the moment. 5 weeks and counting since my last sip of alcohol.

I think you get the picutre by now.

Cheat your way to fat loss by enjoying no more than 4 cheat meals a week.

You can remain a sane person, still be social and still get the fat loss results you want.

What's your excuse?

Fire UP!

I'M FIRED UP TODAY

2008-07-04T15:47:00.000+10:00

Ok, I am fired up today like the title says.

Why you ask?

Well, I picked up my mail just a little while ago and saw this piece of rubbish in there about Pilates for Fat Loss!

God help the poor fools who believe this rubbish.

Check out my little video I did to see why I am so mad!

Let me know what you think in the comments below. I'm interested to here whether I hit the mark with you!

What's your excuse?

DO LOW FAT FOODS MAKE YOU FAT?

2008-06-27T15:29:00.000+10:00

Do low fat foods make you fat? At first glance this seems like a pretty silly comment to make. Right? Don't believe the hype.

Food manufacturers along with doctors and some other ill-informed health and fitness professionals would like you to believe otherwise, that everything low fat will help you lose your belly fat.

But I have had enough of those lies. It is time for the truth about low fat foods to be told. Especially if you are ever to achieve your optimal fat loss goals.

Let us look at some interesting information that might help you switch sides and join me on the anti low fat crusade. Low fat foods are usually filled with artificial sweeteners and flavours to give it some taste after all the fat has been taken out. They can also be filled with excess sugar and sodium (salt).

The problem with these products, apart from the fact they are not a natural food source, is they have been shown to stimulate your appetite.

If the foods you are eating contain artificial sweeteners, like you will find in diet soft drinks and sugar replacements for your coffee, your bodies ability to detect fullness is compromised.

This means your brain will not be able to receive the message from the stomach that it is full.

So, if your body doesn't know when to stop eating, you will continue to overeat even though you may not actually be hungry.

Why does this happen? The processed nature of low fat foods mess with your bodies' natural chemistry.

It would be like watching a little kid have a reaction to red cordial. They just go wild. That is what your body is doing inside.

Have you ever had the feeling that you have overeaten a little while after eating any of these types of foods? You may not feel full at the time, but a little later you feel like you have been hit by a bus and are very sluggish.

This is a perfect example of your stomach not getting the message your brain was trying to send it.

My prediction is there will be a backlash in the coming years against the low fat foods and diets that are being promoted through virtually every medium known to man. If low fat foods and other processed foods that are marketed to us as being healthy are so good for us, why is the rate of obesity in society on the rise?

Are you still with me? Great! now what is the solution to avoiding the ever constant low fat food craze that seems to be everywhere? Simple. Eat foods that are as true to their natural form as possible.

That means we should be eating foods as nature intended us too. Perfect examples include fresh fruits and vegetables, nuts, seeds, and grass fed animal meat if you are a meat eater.

The fats that we should be avoiding are Trans Fats. These are the dangerous fats that are contributing to the obesity epidemic.

More and more people will realise that we have been wrong for all of these years and will work on new ways to tackle the obesity problem, and at the forefront of that will be people starting to shy away from low fat foods.

I know that I, for one, will be leading the cause from the frontline. I hope to see you there!

THE SHOWER WORKOUT

2008-06-22T15:28:00.000+10:00

Ok, today I was feeling pumped.

You see, I missed my workout yesterday which I wasn't happy about.

Our shower was out of action after getting some tiles repaired in the morning - 12 hours without using was the order.

I didn't think my dinner companions would appreciate if I had a shower in a can instead of the real deal so thought I'll give my body a rest and make up for it tomorrow.

Sure, I could've just wrote that one off as the one that got away.

But, will that get me the fat loss results I want?

You and I both know the answer to that one.

Come this morning I was pumped to get a good one in.

I had just finished filming some videos that you'll be able to see soon as well as taking some exercise photos, so I grabbed my kettlebell and was ready to roll.

Try this short Aussie Fatblast superset workout to get your heart rate pumped.

Body Weight Warm Ups (video to follow in a few days)
1a) T Push Ups x 12 - 6 on each side with a 3 secs down, 2 secs hold tempo
1b) 1 Arm Bent Over Rows x 10 on each arm
Repeat x 2

2a) 2 Hand Kettlebell Swing x 10
2b) Wallsit holding kettlebell x 1 min
Repeat x 2

3a) Rockin Hover x 1 min 1st set and Side to Side Hover x 1 min for 2nd set
3b) Floor Trunk Extensions x 20
Repeat x 2

Ok, that is normally me done. Short, sweet and my heart rate was pumping by the end and body already feeling it.

But, like I said, I missed out yesterday and had to make up for it today.

So I added the following cardio with my skipping rope
30 secs on skipping rope, with a 30 sec recovery just walking around

Repeat for 15 mins. (The final minute is 1 minute flat out skipping without the rest at 30 sec mark).

End result: 2 short, intense, heart pumping, interval workouts done in 30 mins total time.

That shower afterwards felt good I can tell you that!

CAN YOU COMPLETE THIS FATBLAST?

2008-06-16T09:57:00.000+10:00

Back in town after a great Europe break with some hot workout videos for you to challenge yourself with!

This is the tough one.

Enjoy the heart rate getting up.

See how you go!
