At this time of year, we can use every last tip
to help avoid
holiday weight gain.
So here are 5 more fat loss tips for beginner
& advanced readers.
1) No liquid calories (with the exception of a
post-workout drink).
Get rid of all the juices, the sodas, and the
sports drinks. Liquid
sugar is the last thing you need when you are
trying to lose fat.
You must also limit your alcohol intake -
especially if you are
adding mix to drinks...that is a double calorie
bomb! A single "Jackand Coke" is over 200
calories (100 calories from booze and 100
calories from mix).
2) No fast food.
Do not eat at fast food restaurants. Even if
you choose what you
think is healthy, remember this:
Fast food restaurants are all about profit.
And in order to profit while giving you cheap,
quick, and easy to
prepare foods, the quality of the food
ingredients will be poor -
especially the protein.
Now you might have read that you can still make
healthy choices at fast food restaurants. But
you know what, that's just
politically-correct opinion. If it's fast food,
it's poor food.
Walking into a burger joint and grabbing a
chicken breast on a
white bread bun with a piece of old lettuce and
a half-green,
half-pink tomato is "barely" healthy
eating.
The politically-incorrect truth is that it's
going to take time and
effort to eat properly. You will have to plan,
shop, and prepare
healthy meals. You will have to spend time
cleaning, cutting, and
cooking your food. That's the truth.
But believe me, it will taste so much better
than fast food, and
healthy eating will make you more alert. Eating
fast food will make you feel terrible, and will
make you want to have an afternoon nap at your
desk.
Make one small improvement to your nutrition
everyday for the rest of your life.
3) Eat more fruits and vegetables.
If you are eating 2 servings per day, then go
up to 4 servings per day by the end of the
week. And even if you think you are doing great
by having 5 servings per day, you still need to
double that (take 2-3 weeks to work your way up
to 10 servings per day).
Stick with fiber-rich fruits and vegetables -
organic if possible.
4) Eat 1oz of almonds or walnuts per day (1/2
oz in the AM, and the other half in the
afternoon).
Most nuts are roasted in oils (possible source
of trans fats), so
stick to natural or dry-roasted nuts.
Don't panic...this small amount of nuts won't
make you fat, but will fill you up and help you
lose weight.
5) Be consistent with your workouts.
And make sure the workouts are efficient and
effective. To make it easy for you to follow,
stick with the Turbulence Training fat burning
workout system.
It doesn't matter if you train in the morning
before or after
breakfast, or at night before or after dinner,
or at 1pm on days
when the moon is in line with Saturn...don't
worry about the
details, just train consistently.

6) BONUS TIP: Go for a walk after lunch or
dinner (or anytime you eat a big meal).
Research shows this will help you control your
cholesterol and triglycerides, plus any
movement is better than sitting around watching
the TV and snacking.
Improve your lifestyle everyday,

PS - Change your workouts to beat a fat loss
plateau.
"The constant shakeup is amazing. I look
forward to my workouts. I feel so much better
than I did 6 weeks ago. I had almost given up
on fitness as I was becoming very frustrated
with my plateaus. I started out at 233 lbs and
am already heading for 225 in only a few short
weeks. Thank you for developing this truly
amazing program and for sharing with the rest
of us. It's very refreshing to enjoy working
out again!"
Dave Heffernan
"Turbulence Training is AWESOME! I started
working out in 2004 first time in gym at 39
yrs. Then I discovered T.T. in 2006 and started
receiving unbelievable info on
xercises/nutrition. Immediately I started
incorporating T.T. in my busy schedule which is
improving my strength, definition, flexibility
and nutrition. Craig is quick to reply to
questions and supportive. My confidence and
strength has definitely improved. If I only
knew of Turbulence Training in 2004. The gym
crowd is really checking me out now."
Kimmie Clark
"I lost 14 pounds this month and the weight is
just falling off me.
My wife says I now look like when we first met
and I still have
more to go. I can fit into my old jeans again
which is a big deal
for me. I just cut back on starches and bread
and do your routine 2-3 times a week. I never
thought in a million years that just 10-20
minutes of weight training followed by some
cardio would get me such steady results. I even
cheat a bit on the weekends."
