3 Easy Ways to Cut Fat - By Adam Kitchen

Are you a fatty? Maybe not. Are you just someone who wants to get a bit leaner, without doing stupid, ineffective s**t like juicing diets and other fads? If so, here are 3 easy plausible ways of losing fat. FAST. Start using them today for immediate results.

1. Eat more Protein: Protein is the most satiating macronutrient (it keeps you fuller longer), has the most potent thermic effect (expends energy to digest it), retains muscle tissue and keeps the metabolism elevated. It's the most important macronutrient when dieting for all these reasons, and you should be ensuring it's at the forefront of every meal you consume.

2. Eat more vegetables: Boring, yes, but your mother was right all those times at the dinner tables. Vegetables contain an abundance of fiber, which not only will make your farts stink alongside a high amount of protein, but they'll also keep you satisfied and immune to hunger pangs and cheating. Controlling the calories is essential on a diet, so why not stockpile up with something that's not only healthy for you, but will also help you look awesome? I'll eat a stalk of broccoli to that, chief.

3. Stop jogging / running: Controversial, maybe, but it's crap for helping you lose weight. It has a poor effect on prolonged weight loss, and you could probably burn just as many calories by throwing a couple of slices of bread into the bin instead of eating them each day. Call me controversial, but running SUCKS as a way of looking awesome and staying lean and muscular.

Choose the Easy Option if You Want to Suck - By Adam Kitchen

Today in the gym, something startled me.

Already late for my workout, I was warming up with some shoulder dislocations, preparing to rush into my press workout with decline bench press, when suddenly, a small, pudgy guy, rushed up and laid his towel down on the bench right before my eyes, before loading it up with a couple of 10kg plates each side.

Pi**ed, I started to improvise on the order of my workout, when suddenly, he disappeared to the otherside of the gym, towel and water bottle intact.

Was he frightened by my sheer enormous mass? Unfortunately not. The pec deck machine had became available, and this little whippersnapper wasted no time in rushing over to mark his territory. Relieved, I continued my productive workout without distraction.

But then it dawned on me: so many people in the gym just flat out SUCK. They're lazy, inefficient and completely devoid of intensity.

The main reason why? They choose the easy way out. Not just today, not just this week, but ALL the time.

If this is a habit perennial in your own training, then I advise you to cut it immediately. Here are some time-efficient, super effective alternatives for those who are serious about increase their physical capability of performance and determined to look awesome to boot.

*Weighted chin-ups OVER curls for big biceps

*Full squats OVER leg extensions for large quads

*Military presses OVER pinky laterals for cannonball delts

*Deadlifts OVER crunches for a tight core and rock-hard abs

*Decline bench press OVER kickbacks for horseshoe triceps

-----

So much of training boils down to the time and effort you invest your energy into, like any venture in life. Just make sure you're placing yours in the most productive ventures, and when in doubt, avoid the easy option - it's usually the one responsible for making you suck.

It Never Gets Any Easier..

It Never Gets Any Easier - You Just Get Stronger

One of the biggest misconceptions around training, is that once you've reached a certain level, you can just "stop" and maintain.

Actually, it's not really a myth, because you can in fact do this in the grand scheme of things. But you never do (or at least I've never met anyone who has.) By then it's too late. You've caught the "Bug". The iron bug.

One of the things that brings us all together at BodyActive Nation is our love for intense physical exercise. The sweat, the blood, the tears; it's how we know we're alive. If you take that away from us, maintenance means nothing. We live for the pain because that sacrifice defines who we are as individuals. We had to earn the level we're at, and once we reach it, it's never enough for people like us. When the prospect of improvement or betterment is there, it's impossible just to be normal and like everybody else.

We're driven by success. Keep improving; keep getting stronger; keep being intense. It's who you are.
