It’s not how long, it’s how strong.  Incorporate 20 minutes of high intensity cardio each day.  Walk  fast on a treadmill for 2 minutes at a 15 incline then sprint for 2 minutes on flat ramp.  Cool down for 1  minute and repeat  this cycle 3 more times until you reach your 20 minute goal.2. Women, make sure to include weight training at least 3-4 days a week.  If you add 3-5 pounds of  muscle to your body, you will burn 250-500 extra calories per day which equals 3-5 pounds of fat loss per  week3. Visualize the muscles you are working on–this is called the mind muscle connection and it will  actually increase tone.4. Your body hits a plateau with cardio and resistance training in one month so change your weight, reps  and exercises accordingly5.  The fastest way to get the body you want is through my power circuit training.  Combine 3 upper body  exercises and 3 lower body exercises together to make one big set.  Do not rest in between and alternate  quickly from upper to lower for maximum fat burn.6. The only muscle groups that really burn fat are the primary muscles like the chest, back, quads,  glute and hamstrings.  Focus hard on those!7. You have to eat within an hour of working out to make sure you’re not eating into the muscle for  energy.  Make sure that you combine proteins and carbs like a blended protein shake with fruit and peanut  butter or a piece of fruit with a low-fat string cheese.8. Don’t just set a weight goal, set a physical goal too like running a 3k or training for a charity  marathon.  Human beings are competitive and you will spark that inner competition by trying to reach a  difficult physical goal.9. A little thing like changing your music playlist every week can go a long way.  The more your mind is  stimulated during your workouts, the better your results will be.10. Instead of focusing on being fat, you’ve got to focus on being fit.  If you think healthy, it  eventually becomes reality to you.  I always push my clients to focus on how strong they’re getting, how  well they’re sleeping, and how happy they’re feeling by exercising.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
