In this week’s Podcast Episode #23, I host a roundtable with personal trainers Mark Cavallaro and Jolene Wilkinson. During this episode, we talk about very practical and easy ways to maintain fat loss and fitness during the holidays and Thanksgiving. If you’re trying to lose fat or get fitter during the holiday season, you won’t want to miss this episode, which includes:
-The top five fattiest foods and perfect substitutions
-How to make food less likely to get stored as fat
-Tricks for staying motivated to exercise
-Ways to make “Holes in Your Calendar” for fitness
Also included in this podcast is an answer to the following listener question:
I listened to podcast #21 where you gave your 1-2-3 secret to fast fat burning and basically, you advocated 20-30 min @ 60% MHR an on empty stomach. My question is that I work out 5x a week at an hour each morning – 2-3 times full body weight training and 2-3 times high intensity cardio at 85-95% HR or interval training. To increase my fat burning potential, how do I use this slower, steady cardio technique? Should I continue with my current workout program and then tack on an extra 30 min of steady cardio?
In this video, Ben Greenfield gives you two highly effective recommendations for learning the squat exercise. The squat is a perfect way to effectively tone your thighs, butt and quads, burn a high number of calories in a short period of time, and boost leg strength for sport performance.
In this November 18th podcast episode, Ben Greenfield talks all about low thyroid, low metabolic rate and natural methods for improvement. Included in this podcast:
-The most accurate home test to determine if you have a low metabolism.
-Will too much exercise damage the metabolism?
-Which thyroid medication might be your best bet.
-The one oil that you should be consuming (at least 2-3 tablespoons daily).
-A shiny, blue-black, solid mineral that is crucial to thyroid activity and metabolism.
-Two compounds that must appear on the nutrition label of your multi-vitamin.
