In this video you'll see 3 weird pull up exercises to develop muscular strength, coordination, core strength, and stamina.

Many people mistakenly believe that you need to go to the gym to get in great shape. However, the ability to move and control your own body weight should be a prerequisite before integrating machines, dumbbells, barbells or other devices into your fitness program.

The first of the three pull ups exercises you'll see in this video is the typewriter.

This exercise is very challenging for most people. Pull yourself up toward one hand and maneuver over toward the other side of the bar while keeping your head as high as possible. Descend and repeat.

Some people choose to do this with straight legs. Others prefer to bend the knees or even slightly extend out. Beginners can do this from a low bar with feet on the ground.

The next pull up variation is the combat pull up. Raise your legs up to the bar and either rest the soles of your feet on the bar support (hard) or hook your feet over the bar. Pull your torso up as high as possible then repeat until you reach momentary muscle failure.

The next pull up variation is the jumping pull up with lateral leg raise. This should be easiest of the three exercises because, when done properly, you can take advantage of the momentum built from your jump and initiate your leg raise simultaneously.

Bonus exercise: Sprints! Always a top conditioning exercise.

Sample Workout:

Exercise #1 - Typewriter pull ups: Perform as many reps as possible then immediately begin combat pulls (exercise #2).

Exercise #2 - Combat Pull: Perform as many reps as possible

Exercise #3 - Sprint 100 meters.

Exercise #4 - Jumping pull ups with Lateral Leg Raise: Perform as many reps as possible (up to 10).

Repeat this circuit 10 times and record your time to completion.

Curtis Ludlow:  Hello everyone.  This is Curtis Ludlow with another Boot Camp FX coaching call.  We have with us today Dr. Brian Wansink.  He is the Director of the Food and Brand Lab at Cornell University and the author of Mindless Eating: Why We Eat More Than We Think.  Today, he will be sharing with us some secret tips to help you lose weight almost effortlessly.  Dr. Wansink, thank you for taking the time to be here today.

Dr. Brian Wansink:  It's great to be with you today.

Curtis Ludlow:  Great.  Well, I know your time is limited, so let's just get straight to it.  First of all, what is mindless eating?

Dr. Brian Wansink:  Well, the typical person makes about 200 decisions a day about food.  It is not just whether you're going to have Froot Loops or Frosted Flakes for breakfast, but then it's being whether it's two-thirds of a bowl or three-quarters of a bowl or second bowl, whether you are going to use full fat milk or regular milk, those will be all the decisions you don't make throughout the day and that you don't really make - because at the end, it would be things like whether you decide not to grab that one in the break or whether you decide not to have ice cream.

What's going on with this is that our environment has a tremendous influence on nudging us one direction or the other causing us to overeat whether they eat the right amounts or they eat even less.  The good news about this is that these 200 decisions they were not even aware of making that sort of _____6:26 for a diet can also be very, very, very easily reversed to eat less mindlessly instead of mindlessly overeat.

Curtis Ludlow:  Interesting.  Well, I first came across your work reading another book and the study seems to be coming up over and over and over again.  There is Ice Cream Study and  Popcorn Study.  And the ice cream one, I just came across, and that's very interesting, about these 83 - well, maybe you can explain it.

Dr. Brian Wansink:  Well, and we've done a number of - I can say a number of Popcorn Studies.

Curtis Ludlow:  The one I came across was the 83 nutritionists or...

Dr. Brian Wansink:  Yeah, sure, sure, yeah, yeah.  In particular case what we found is that the cues signal you to eat too much it can be something as simple as the size of a bowl or the size of a spoon, what the person is doing next to you, what the lighting is in the room, and by simply adjusting these things you can end up eating a whole lot less and a whole lot more. 

The study you are referring to there is really a study we - when I was a professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign and we had a big ice cream buffet reception for people when we - these are people who are nutrition professors and grad students.  And what we do is when people came in they were randomly given either a large bowl for their ice cream or just a medium-sized bowl for their ice cream. 

In either case, their bowls, you can never even fill up, because they are huge to begin with. 

And then what also happened is that it appeared as we through the line, we just switched out the ice cream scoop to a given either - so people were using 3-ounce scoop or 2-ounce scoop and what we really found is that people are tremendously influenced by these cues. 

If you have a big bowl, let's say a 24-ounce bowl it may suggest that it's normal, typical and reasonable to serve more and so people mindlessly do so. 

They end up putting on average about 50 - I think it's like about 51% more ice cream into a large bowl than a slightly smaller bowl if they are given a large bowl and a large ice cream scoop.

Curtis Ludlow:  That's for me then...

Dr. Brian Wansink:  And even experts are influenced by this.  And so, for those of us who say, "You know, I've got a lot of will power.  I don't over serve myself at meal time.  I don't have second or third ones I really need it.  I don't snack."  If your environment is somehow broad, you would mindlessly overeat.  If a person - we have lots of cool videos of this. 

A person wants to go to - even just Google my name like for YouTube and just you are going to YouTube and type in Wansink or Brian Wansink, you'll find slides dozens and dozens of these that have been shot for different documentary and things like that.  So, it's amazing. 

But the key to this reversing mindless eating is not to be mindful all the time because most of us have full time job who can't take a bite and say, "Okay, am I full yet?  We don't take another bite, am I full yet?"  No.  Some people can, but the vast majority doesn't _____10:00.

Curtis Ludlow:  Right.

Dr. Brian Wansink:  Okay.  For the most of us, it's a lot easier for us to simply change the size of a plate, change the size of a bowl, to arrange or cover to the first thing we see is the more healthy snack and that's less healthy snack.  We remove a dish and it's 6 feet away, these are mindless ways to getting small changes of your environment that nudges you into eating and nudge you into overeating.

Let me give another example.  We've done a study - well, series of studies actually that showed that if you give somebody a 10-inch dinner plate, a typical person is going to serve about 4 ounces of pasta in a pasta dinner.  If instead you give them a 12-inch dinner plate, which is a little bit bigger, 4 ounces on a 10-inch dinner plate, I mean, that this doesn't look like an appetizers work. 

So what you do, you add another ounce and typically we find that the average person serves themselves 22% more food when it's served in a 12-inch plate, even this bumps up from 10 to 12 calories or 10 to 12 inches rather.  And this is tremendous.  This is a great mindless way for a person to eat a bit less but not even realize it because in your mind, in both cases you ate what you believe was a full plate of food.

In another study we did something with the secretaries at University, give them Hershey's Kisses, candies on their desk or you give them candies that were just 6 feet away from their desk exact same number and you refill the bowl every night for a month.  And one thing we found that simply having a candy dish 6 feet away from you and leaving that typical person to eat not nine candies at night but only four candies. 

And that ends up being the difference of about 125 calories which your listeners will know can total up to about an extra 12 pounds that a person wouldn't have gained if they simply with that candy just test you 6 feet away from their desks. 

So we did this and when we ask people, "Hey, what was it, 6 feet too far to walk for a snack?" 

People say, no, no. They said 6 feet, gave a pause and say "geez, I am really that hungry?"  Finally the answer is no. 

So, I mean, the key to mindless eating, again it is not mindful eating. 

But what we're doing is determining what small changes you can make in your environment, really small, really, really small changes you can make is mindlessly eat less not even really knowing it. 

Some people might be serving off a counter instead of off the stove or off the kitchen counters instead of right at the table. 

Some people could eat something as simple as a time for a small rule that you have no more than two cold cans of soda or a beer or whatever your beverage of choice is and refrigerate at the same time. 

Doing so, I have put the limit how much you end up eating.  Just I want to drink two or something and then wait around for the third to get cold.  So there are tons and tons of these ideas you can find and - well, in my book Mindless Eating, which you can get from any library, you can get it from any book store, amazon.com and there is also a series of - a number of these you could find just surfing the web or on our website mindlesseating dot org. 

What's important to realize is that if you want to pick something, we tell people that if you are going to make too many changes to your life that comes with reversing mindless eating, they are going to backfire if you don't pick if you don't pick the ones that are most relevant for you and most likely worth. 

There is over 250 questions we have, what we call them Mindless Methods.  There are 250 changes you can make and these are just Mindless Methods you have to pick the ones that are most relevant for you because if your problems is meal binging and you start using tips that relate to snacks craving or to restaurant indulging, it's just not going to work because you have to be very specific about identifying first of all what your main problem area is that could be decked up desk for dining, the meal stuff and it could be snack raisings whatever, identify one to three small tiny daily environmental changes that you can make that will mindlessly lead you to eat a little less, okay?

Curtis Ludlow: Well, in your experience what are the top three changes that somebody could make (multiple speakers) contact?

Dr. Brian Wansink: Yeah. That would be really - that would be hard for me...

Curtis Ludlow: That's excess.

Dr. Brian Wansink: To say.  Yeah, I mean...

Curtis Ludlow: Yeah.

Dr. Brian Wansink: I know in my personal life three that made the biggest difference for me was just don't ever serve food off the table. Instead, we pre-plate all of our food in my family, and pre-plate at the counter off the stove. 

And, in studies we have done, the average male end up eating about 29% less if they do that.  The average female only end up eating about 9% to 10% less doing something like that.

Curtis Ludlow: Okay.

Dr. Brian Wansink: So again that's for all people and it's not going to be - it's not going to work for some who does not have the - for a guy, for instance, whose tendency isn't to eat seconds and thirds of something.  My wife happens to be a fresh chef.  So my predisposition is to eat seconds and thirds of everything is incredibly high.

Curtis Ludlow: Sure.

Dr. Brian Wansink: I think you know the first - so, I mean, that's why you find things that are really, really nicely tailored and that were true-off.  Now, the other things that's - people who tend to like a lot of juice or milk or, you know, wine or whatever the case is, it's not just the size of the glass that's in front of you, although it does dramatically, meaning you will pour less if it's a wine in a smaller wine glass, even if it's going to strain even really less wide glass but simply the shape of these glasses.

In our studies we found that people have a tendency to pour a whole lot more in a short wide glass .

Let's say you have short wide - you have a 20 ounce juice glass that's short and wider, 20 ounce juice glass that's tall and skinny.

You will pour a lot more into that short wide glass because what you do is you look at the height of liquid as you pour, you don't look at the width, nobody does that and as you know, we find the typical person they pour about 30% more, actually 33% more liquid in a wide glass than do tall, skinny glass of the same volume.

So, from my personal experience nothing works.  I mean, I've got - people write in and, you know, we get over 200 studies who have done different things, three changes that they make and you know, as _____18:21 axis, mentioned why? 

So the key is to find out what is their biggest Achilles heel.

Is it snacking, well, here is a bunch of things that can change.  Is it going to restaurant and really blowing it? Well, there is a bunch of things you can change there too.  The idea is to find the areas the most problematic. 

Like I had somebody a while back, we are doing a makeover for a big show and this is somebody who is convinced their biggest problem was party binging, meaning they go to whatever Super Bowl parties or whatever, they were just totally confident.  Just eat way, way too much and we know we came up with these easy solutions to get that under control given this guy's all patterns, really started saying well, how often does he have to go?  "Oh, man.  It's like three or four time a year. This is every time."  You know, I said, if it's three or four times a year, this is not your problem area.

Curtis Ludlow: Right.

Dr. Brian Wansink: This is rounding error on the year.

Curtis Ludlow: Right.

Dr. Brian Wansink: The first thing a person needs to do, again, the mindless myth helps you kind of take you through that, you can just read about that in the book too, helps you identify your major problem area, helps you figure out what are one or two or three, no more than three small tiny daily changes that you can make once in your environment that you never have to think back about you, then how to actually keep the change.  Based on those stuff we tell when we work with people like something you want to change, just aim at  changing for a month, after a month you can go right back to whatever you want to do. 

The thing is changing something, whether you use smaller plates, so I am going to use, it's like, well, I don't know that could be - I do that forever?  Most people - when people _____20:21 successfully 30 days even if they don't want to do it anymore, I should say generally they keep the change. 

And after that point, we just give them or we recommend they just find three different changes to try and those are some really separate people.  The key is nobody is going to lose 70 pounds in a month using this Mindless Eating method.  But what they do do is we find in our study that people who say they don't even to just wait at all given these changes to make still end up losing on average about 2 pounds a month. 

But the fact is this is effortless.

Curtis Ludlow: Right

Dr. Brian Wansink: And at the end of the year, people weighed 20 to 24 pounds less, maybe it's just fine.

Curtis Ludlow: Yeah, okay.  Well, this is all really fascinating.  Once again, let's - is it mindlesseating.org where people should go?

Dr. Brian Wansink:  Yes. mindlesseating.org, my name is Brian Wansink.  They can also play a bunch of things in YouTube if they want to within the Mindless Eating method there is way to tackle this and you can learn about that, you can review about that and the Book Mindless Eating: Why We Eat More Than We Think ______21:50 much at all libraries, book stores, amazon.com, et cetera.

Curtis Ludlow:  Great.  Well, ladies and gentlemen, rush over to mindlesseating.org and get your copy of Mindless Eating, the book. And Brian, thank you so much again for taking the time to tell us about your work.  I really appreciate it.

Dr. Brian Wansink: Absolutely, I like that.

Curtis Ludlow:  Okay, thank you.  Take care now.

Have you ever dreamed about escaping the stress and obligations of your daily life so you could relax in a paradise setting and just focus on yourself for once?

Have you ever thought of temporarily running away to a fat camp for adults and coming back healthier and much happier? If so, then you are probably like millions of other adults today: overstressed, overweight, and just waiting for the right opportunity to put yourself first for once.


MTV has popular TV show featuring a group of kids of varying ages who had the opportunity to do exactly that. It is set high in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania at a kid's camp called Camp Pocono Trails.

The show follows some of the many campers staying the summer away from their friends and family to learn how to be active, eat correctly, and get their weight under control.

The kids followed for the summer had their best and worst moments of their weight loss adventures were exposed to millions of viewers.

Glimpses of other campers were also featured along the way, with many of them resonating on a very deep level with viewers around the world.

While this camp is designed for kids, it has all of the features that would entice a grown man or woman to drop it all and escape to a fat camp for adults.

Camp Pocono Trails campers enjoy scenic views of the lake, healthy meals catered to them, and all of the outdoor recreational adventures you could ever ask for.

From kayaking and hiking to more traditional strength training, water aerobics, and cardio workouts, the stress of everyday life was replaced by outdoor adventure every single day.

While the show was not a huge hit right off the bat, it has now become a huge inspiration for kids who need to take charge of their health as well as adults who are now looking into making their dreams come true at a fat camp for adults.

It continues to air on a regular basis on MTV and interestingly, it is not the actual weight loss that has caught the attention of millions of viewers. It is the personal stories of the campers who were brave enough to reveal some of their most raw, uncensored emotions on camera.

For instance, videos of some of the favorite campers continue to surface on YouTube and get hundreds of views, even now that almost four years have passed since the original airing of the documentary. The world seems captivated by the kids of Camp Pocono Trails.

The most positive result of the TV show has been all of the new interest in fitness camps for adults. While it is easier for kids to spend their summer vacation away at camp than it is for adults to escape their full time jobs, children, and other obligations to attend fat camp for adults, the idea of running away from it all to a beautiful remote location is extremely appealing.

For some people, attending weight loss boot camp has actually become a reality. They have put themselves first and made their life and their families much stronger as a result.

Are you a veteran gym goer and are looking for the best in Orange County health clubs?  Or maybe you have never set foot into one of the many gyms in Fullerton. No matter your experience level, you will find that becoming a member of a club or gym can be very rewarding - or an absolute nightmare.

Take some time and make sure that you find the right gym for you. There are a lot of health clubs in Fullerton and the last thing that you want to do is to waste a lot of money on a gym membership that really doesn't suit you. How can you find the right gym for you and which of the many gyms in Orange County is it going to be?

In the first place, remember that research is key. This is an area that has a lot to offer anyone who wants to get in shape and to get more fit, but when you look at it closely, they are all offer you different ways of doing it. Most if not all of the Fullerton gyms have a web presence, and this is where you can start. What are their rates like, and what kind of services and facilities do they offer? Which ones seem like they would be perfect for you and which ones seem like a mismatch?



Remember to find a gym that is going to be convenient to you. You can get so caught up on finding the gym with the right facilities that you choose one that takes you a half hour out of your way! While some people can make that commitment, remember that finding a gym that is close to where you live and work can make it much more likely that you will actually go.

When you are looking to join a gym, remember that you need to consider what facilities you absolutely need and which ones you can live without. Most gyms will have the normal mix of stair steppers, recumbent bikes and elliptical machines, but how much do you need a racquetball court? Are you looking for fairly intensive or sophisticated weight machines, or do you feel as though you need a wide variety of free weights or maybe even kettle bells to get the full workout that you are interested in.

Have you considered a fitness boot camp? This type of membership will give you the benefits of personal training at much lower investment.

Finally, make sure that as you look complete your search for the perfect O.C. gyms, that you pick one that will serve and let's you try them out risk-free. It is important to make sure that you can find a gym that you feel comfortable in. Make sure that the staff friendly and makes you feel like family.

One more important point; make sure that the club culture of the gym members are a good match for your personality. Some people love to chat while they work out, while others simply want to get the job done. Take some time and make sure that you look into a gym that makes you comfortable.

If you are looking for the perfect orange county health clubs, you will find that there are a number of different options open for you. Weigh your options, consider a fitness boot camp,  find the one that suits you best and enjoy a healthier lifestyle today.

People want to get in shape fast.

There are no shortcuts to fitness, but high intensity fitness programs will give your body a rapid transformation. That's where boot camp fitness comes in.

Have you watched "The Biggest Loser" before? The trainers are merciless to the participants in an effort to turn their bodies into fat burning machines. Some people actually like that.

Boot camp fitness is a popular way to exercise. The coach won't yell at you unless you've paid for that type of class. In a gyms, health clubs and other types of programs, many people are turning to more aggressive measures looking for better and speedy fitness results.

Your body can handle a lot. The larger muscle groups of the legs, back, and abs will be challenged through a variety of exercises with and without weights. That is exactly what boot campers thrive on.

Basically the class combines some military PT training with squats, lunges, pushups, crunches, and cardio intervals. You could be running in place or jogging a half mile one minute and doing weight work the next. Those who are looking for a higher intensity workout thrive in  such classes.

Who is a good candidate for boot camp training? All fitness levels can participate, but check with your doctor first. On "The Biggest Loser" the contestants are constantly supervised by a physician. Before beginning any exercise program, especially one as intense as boot camp, it is a good idea to get a clean bill of health.

A good boot camp program will teach something about supportive nutrition so that all of the work done in camp is not in vain. Eating nutritionally supportive meals goes hand in hand with burning fat and reshaping your body.

We've seen the results on shows like "The Biggest Loser." Participants who were hundreds of pounds overweight have lost that weight with kick butt trainers. What about the rest of us? Does boot camp fitness really work?

Burning fat requires commitment, consistency and a burning desire to reshape the body. Boot camp programs deliver quick results, high intensity and a fast total body transformation.

Bootcamp can work for you, too!

In this short video Jorge Cruise and Andrew Weil talk about the "calorie myth".

Many people want to lose weight quickly and safely. However evidence shows that in order to keep the weight off permanently you should strive to lose, at most, about 1-2 pounds of fat per week.

The most common mistake that people make in their attempts to lose weight is to approach weight loss as a one time thing and not a lifestyle change.

Effective weight loss programs all do the same basic thing. They manipulate calorie intake so that calories in is less than the total number of calories expended. Most people don't know that one pound of fat equals 3,500 calories.

So to lose 1-2 pounds per week you would need to consume 500-1000 fewer calories than you currently take in - assuming that your weight has stabilized.

The other option is to increase your activity level so that calorie expenditure is increased by 500-1000 calories per day. Either one of these approaches would result in a 1-2 pound body weight reduction every single week.

Unfortunately, these are both simplistic approaches to weight loss that don't take into account other factors like bioindividuality, horomone production, and more.

But for someone who is looking to drop body weight fast, without regard to long term weight loss, this is all that you need to know.

For people who are concerned with long term and permanent weight loss it is essential to approach body transformation as a lifestyle change.

The people who are successful with weight loss make physical activity and permanent and essential part of their daily routine. They don't think of exercise as a chore. They think of it as their escape from the daily grind. It is their refuge from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

If you are looking to lose weight, consider making physical activity and healthy eating a part of your life. You will live longer, be happier, have more confidence, and more. The list of benefits that you will experience is too numerous to list here.

It goes on and on.

So if you want to have a better outlook on life, more energy, and more - don't even think about losing weight quickly.

Think about making a permanent lifestyle change and losing weight FOREVER.
