Heike and Monica.
Heike lost more than 50-pounds since she started Boot Camp FX.
Monica lost 22 pounds of fat.
Smart nutrition combined with Boot Camp FX got them in great shape.
Then I told them about Joel Marion's 25-day Xtreme nutrition plan.
The day it went on sale, they were among the FIRST people to order it.
Guess what?
Just 25-days from now they'll both BE SEXIER,
TONE and have the body they've always wanted.
And some people will say that they have
"great genetics" or that they're "lucky"
in some way.
SMART PEOPLE, on the other hand, will see
that Heike and Monica JUST TAKE ACTION.
They know what they want and they GO GET IT.
I KNOW YOU will tone up and
drop those stubborn lbs
if you'll just stick with
this program for 25-days.
It's founded on SCIENCE.
It's based on STRATEGY.
No gimmicks. No BS. Just results.
But TODAY is the LAST DAY to
get Boot Camp FX while
saving 30 DOLLARS.

If you're like me, you probably want nothing more than to feel like
a 'super-stud' every time you take your shirt off in public. You want
to have the confidence to say, 'Boy, this sweaty shirt is chaffin' me',
then reach over your shoulder and tear your shirt off like Brad Pitt
in Fight Club. When you know that your pecs look like two soup bowls
inserted beneath your skin, and your abs are as hard the asphalt you
stand on, it's tough to keep your shirt on!
Today you are gonna learn the top 5 training principles that you MUST
implement in order to make your physique and performance goals... a
reality. But, before I open the info-floodgates, there is something
you've got to understand. Men... all men, should recognize that we are
athletes and our training programs must reflect this.
Even if you're a 'pencil pusher' or a 'white collar crook', the essence
of your being is athletic. In order to see any type of fitness results
it is essential to recognize that Squats, Power Cleans, 40 Yard Dashes
and Vertical Jumps are not only for NFL Combine participants... they
are for you!
1. You're An Athlete By Design
The foundation principle of everything that I teach all begins with
one extremely powerful phrase: "We are primal beings living in a modern
world"
Our physical bodies have been unchanged for thousands of years. In fact,
today, our bodies are an exact expression of what our ancestors were
over 100,000 years ago. It is believed that it takes about 100,000 years
for 0.001percent of a genome to change... so yourself and Primal Man
are for all intents and purposes... the same.
What has changed is how WE have chosen to live, if you can even call
it that. As we have 'advanced' in technology we have regressed in physical
strength and stature.
We function at a much lower capacity than were inherently capable of.
This is analogous to those people who buy off-road vehicles that will
never see anything but concrete! You've been given the ultimate athletic
tool... use it.
2. Short, Hard and Intense Workouts Yield Lean, Hard and Muscular
Bodies
When you spend over an hour in the gym sitting on useless 'fitness machines'
while you're waiting to do your 'next set'...your nervous system's primal
response is to release Cortisol and Glucocorticoids - which are stress
hormones, (these make you sick, sad, fat and, stupid) in response to
your body thinking... "Holy Cow, we've been training for over an hour...
perhaps we're being chased by a tiger and need to preserve body fat",
then it begins sacrificing muscle tissue for energy! This is called
The Catabolic Effect. Also, workouts exceeding 1 hour have been shown
to be associated with a rapid decrease in androgen levels.
This is why marathon runners look so emaciated... id much rather look
like one of those Lock, Stock & Ready Sprinters with muscles rippling
across their backs and abs.
3. Aerobics and Cardio Training Is Boring &
Ineffective
Strength coach Charles Poliquin has coined the phrase "Chunky Aerobic
Instructor Syndrome" (CAIS). You've seen them, they do cardio all
day long... don't you think that they would be a bit leaner? Well, there
is a scientific reason as to why they are cubby even though they bounce
up and down on those colorful blocks all day long. In fact research
has shown that aerobic instructors who taught an average of 3 hours
a day maintained a body fat of 22-24% - mind you, that Olympic athletes
hover around 9%.
Especially with repetitive exercises like aerobics the body adapts quickly
to the stimulus and ceases to respond to the stimulus. Also, you begin
to become very fuel-efficient... Listen, think of a metabolism that
has adapted to long treks of cardio as being a Honda... it burns very
little fuel (i.e. fat) but can go miles and miles. Think of a metabolism
that is roaring with increased mitochondria activity (as is present
in someone who weight trains with circuits) as a Hummer, large fuel
combusting metabolism!
Here's Why this is so important! You want a stronger heart, without
the fat saving response of long boring cardio treks. That is why I teach
my clients how to do work capacity sets. We take 4-6 exercises and complete
them back to back with no rest and aim to complete them all with in
about 2 minutes... if your heart is not ready to pound out of your chest
after that, then maybe you should visit your veterinarian!
Here's a simple circuit that you can do at home - first 20 squats, then
20 lunges, then 'step ups' on a bench 10 each leg, finally do 10 squat
jumps and get it all done in less than 90 seconds! Kick-ass workout!
We begin every session with Plyometrics and then get right into 3-5
"work capacity" sets for upper and lower body.
4. Get High on Oxygen & Sunshine
Besides the fact that training on treadmills and 'sit down' exercise
equipment is less effective than getting your feet on the ground and
learning how to use your own bodyweight, training indoors can be detrimental
to your performance and fitness results.
As 'primal beings' we are in need of several vital elements and forms
of energy. The suns rays are nourishing to your mind as well as body.
It is well documented that those who live in the cooler northern climates
that enjoy less sunshine through out the year are several times more
likely to suffer from depression.
Also, if you're like most Americans you work and live indoors (maybe).
In fact, the average person spends 90% of their time indoors. Several
health experts have propounded that our homes and workplace are the
most toxic environments in our lives. Many studies have stated that
toxic particles and fumes found in your home and workplace include:
air fresheners, spray starch, paints, mothballs and even 'new car' smell
kills more people every year than automobile accidents!
So, what do you do? Train in the great outdoors! When I train my Strength
Camp clients at Vinoy Park in St. Petersburg Florida, not only do we
benefit from the sweet bay breeze but also the scenery is beautiful
enough to give a nun spring fever!
5. It's Gotta Be Fun!
Drop out rates for exercise programs are almost as high as the drop
out rate in my old middle school! The bottom line is, if you don't enjoy
it - you wont do it. The most effective way to ensure that you stick
with your training program is to change it often. This doesn't mean
hop from one modality to the next before you get any results. It means
stick with your weight-training program for a minimum of 90 day but
change the exercises you use for each body part at least every 3 weeks.
This not only keeps you interested but also, your nervous system will
be challenged with the new exercises and be forced to adapt. This yields
fast and long-lasting results!
No woman's body is perfect, but with Hello skinny jeans, every woman can appear to be perfect. Even for women who wear a size four or six and who have bodies that other women envy, there are always small annoyances when it comes to finding jeans that flatter the body and hide imperfections. This is a problem shared by women of all sizes around the world, and luckily, it is a problem that has been solved with these hello skinny jeans.
Hello is the brand name of a very uniquely designed type of women's blue jean designed to hide the imperfections on a woman's body and make her look sexy at any size. While most women cringe when it comes to spandex, each pair of Hello jeans is made of a stretch material that hugs the body. The miracle is that they are designed and sewn so perfectly that the material helps a woman's shapely frame, rather than hindering it.
According to the company, when you purchase these jeans, you can expect an instant slimming down of all the problem areas of your body. Your thighs will appear slimmer and less bumpy. Your stomach will be contained and smoothed so it does not puff at the top of the jeans or hang out. Your buttocks will be shaped nicely without any lumps or sagging.
This would be quite amazing, since most of us would have to regularly engage in physical activity and wait months to get those kinds of results any other way!
Most women can spend hours a day working out and still have small imperfections in certain areas of their body which are accentuated by many blue jeans on the market today. Hello has completely gone in the opposite direction and made a pair of jeans that actually make your best features appear even better while downplaying and correcting your problem areas.
If you believe the hype, literally, no other pair of jeans on the market can do all of that as effectively as this brand. Some are starting to try and in the future, there is guaranteed to be more competition hitting the market, but right now, this is a fashion innovation that supermodels and everyday women alike are apparently taking advantage of.
Besides offering such slimming effects, these jeans are also nicely styled. They can be worn casually for everyday use or dressed up to go out on the town with the ladies or meet that hot new date. The best part is they increase self-confidence and make you feel sexy and desirable.
These sexy jeans are also designed to make the legs look longer, which delivers a sexy, appealing look to any body type. The available inseams are 32, 35, and 37 inches and the available waist sizes are 24-32, 34, 36, and 38.
Hello skinny jeans may deliver all of their advertised benefits,
which may be why many women are willing to pay for each
pair. The biggest problem you may run into with the brand is a slow
shipping process, which is common with a new company that suddenly
becomes famous around the world.
Hello skinny jeans are still well worth the wait, unless you're finally ready to start an exercise program and get all of these results naturally!
Any personal trainer will tell you that you don't need a bunch of fancy equipment in order to do some fitness training and get in shape. First of all, take a look around your house - you can use canned food as weights, towels as exercise mats, a stack of books as a stair, some spare rope as a jumping rope and even a chair can help you exercise at home.
Why not take your items outside? It's much easier to jump rope (an excellent cardio workout) when you have lots of space. For any of your fitness training, being outside is better and will make you feel better - fresh air and plenty of it will increase the workout you're getting.
When you're outside, you can take your fitness training to a whole new level. Go for a brisk walk (or even a slow one) or a run and increase your workout all the more. Even if running isn't your thing, you can still walk or hike around your local area on trails or just the side walk. Take your bike to work instead of your car or just head out on a leisurely bike ride.
It's always best to team up with someone, even a personal trainer, to stick with your fitness training plan. It helps keep you accountable for your goals and your daily routines. Another green and great idea for your fitness training is to join a team for your favorite sport, such as volley ball, tennis, soccer, basket ball or any sport that you enjoy doing.
If you really want to get serious with your fitness training plan, you might eventually need some equipment. However, that doesn't mean that you need to break the bank and buy all new equipment. Check out the Internet for used equipment or local sporting goods stores for second hand goods - many cities and towns have a "bargain finder" newspaper or portion of the daily newspaper where people can sell or give away items. However, you can make do with water jugs, a chair and a stepping stool. Your fitness plan doesn't have to include a bunch of expensive equipment.
Going "green" with your fitness training doesn't have to reduce your routine or limit your work out. A fitness trainer can help you figure out ways to increase your personal training without any equipment at all. A walk around the block, a mile long run, a hike on a favorite trail, or a bike ride through town can be just as good a work out as an hour in the gym. Do what you like to do, have some fun, and enjoy your green workout. If that doesn't workout check out our personal trainer directory.
