Fat Burning Workouts – The Place to BLAST the FAT – Get Lean, Fit & Mean

So we are hitting week 3 of Lean Hybrid Muscleand so far it has been going pretty good. I know that I did not post anything up last week. That is because I was just too busy. Heck it took effort just to get my workouts in and to be honest, I only got in 4 days. But hey 4 days is better than none, right?

Tonight starts Week 3

Now Week 3 is still considered Boot Camp. The reasons behind 3 weeks of Boot Camp is to get you in a mind set for what’s to come. It also is weed out the people who aren’t going to give the effort, stick it out and put in the work. Look this isn’t any 10 minute routine or wimp workout. This is for someone who wants REAL RESULTS and REAL RESULTS take HARD WORK.

Tonight was one this COLD! That’s right cold. Okay, so it isn’t like Minnesota or Buffalo but it was down to 40 degrees when I opened up the Home Warehouse Gym. Heck Accuweather.com says that it going to be 16 degrees tonight in Bronson. Man I hope not, but oh well. I was in the gym going HARD CORE Lean Hybrid Muscle Workout and even with it being 40 degrees outside I was sweating. That is how good Elliott & Mike’s program is.

So what is week 3 like? Well it is a little bit of an advancement of week 2. Remember the first two weeks are based on bodyweight movements on Mon-Wed-Fri and Sandbags on Tues & Thurs. Well this week we are taking those bodyweight movements and adding dumbbells to them. So it is taking Basic Training and kicking it up a notch.

Elliott & Mike send out an email each week and give you exactly what you need to do each week. They also give you a video with some great information on the workout and some great motivational stuff. Elliott is really up on his stuff. He does get a little bit too scientific for some, but if you want to learn what and why you are doing something then Elliott is the man.

The weekly coaching program is dead on and I am already feeling results. I just have to get my diet and nutrition under control and I can tell that the results are going to be there.

The for an update at the end of the week and get you with the program.

Me after tonight’s workout. DAMN IT WAS COLD!

Hey tomorrow I turn 48 & I am going to kick this programs ass.
Folk’s don’t put it off anymore, get with the program. Find out more about Elliott & Mike’s Lean Hybrid Muscle Program and start the New Year off right.

Giant Black Bean Salad

OK, I know that it isn’t Summer time, but who says that it needs to be Summer to enjogy a Giant Black Bean Salad?
From 101cookbooks.com
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
1/2 small jalapeño, seeded, deveined and chopped
1/2 teaspoon fine grain sea salt
1 small garlic clove
1/2 teaspoon mustard
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 -3 big handfuls baby arugula (or other salad greens), well washed and dried
3 cups cooked black beans
1/4 cup feta, crumbled
1/3 cup sliced almonds, toasted
Start by making the dressing. I use an immersion blender – but a blender or food processor will work just as well. Combine the lime juice, vinegar, honey, jalapeño, salt, garlic and mustard and puree. Add the olive oil and puree until everything comes together. Taste and adjust with more salt, honey, or lime juice if needed. Set aside until you are ready to serve the salad.
Just before you are ready to serve the salad gently toss the arugula with a bit of the dressing. Arrange it on a platter. Now toss the beans and most of the almonds with a generous splash of the dressing. Arrange the beans on top of the arugula and finish by sprinkling with the remaining almonds and the crumbled feta cheese.
Serves 4 – 6.

Military Fat Burning Tips Guaranteed To Banish Ugly Belly Fat Once And For All… And Get You In The Best Shape Of Your Life!

If You Ignore ANY Of These 5 Weight Loss Rules,
You’ll Stay Fat And Frustrated Forever!

If you want to know how to lose weight, while building lean muscle and getting into the best shape of your life, you can’t beat the billions of research dollars behind the U.S. Military’s most powerful fat-burning strategies used to keep its soldiers lean, healthy & strong! Here are just a few weight loss tips to burn fat fast:
Military Fat Loss Tip:
Focus On THIS Instead Of “Fat Loss”!

Stop trying to lose weight by eating “low fat” and spending hours on a treadmill!
Your body’s muscle is its “fat burning engine” and if trained the RIGHT WAY, it can shoot your metabolism through the roof 24 hours a day – 7 days a week!

Military Fat Loss Tip:
DON’T Give Up The “Guilty” Foods You Love!

Our bodies are actually genetically designed to crave “guilty foods” (like sweets and fats) for a good reason…and if you cut these out, you’ll only fail in your fat loss efforts! The secret is learning how to USE these foods as a powerful force to burn more fat!

Military Fat Loss Tip:
To Lose Weight, Master Your Bodyweight!

I don’t care if you can’t do one single pushup or situp…there’s a reason why the military uses bodyweight exercises like these to maintain a lean and healthy body – they activate your central nervous system best to trigger a rapid “fat meltdown”. (I’ll show you how to make it EASY to burn fat no matter what shape you’re in now!)

Military Fat Loss Tip:
NEVER “Go On A Diet”…Diets DON’T WORK!

Did you know that there are over 30,000 hyped up “diets” approved by the FDA… and 99% of them lead to LONG TERM FAILURE! Why? Because they make food the “enemy” when in fact it’s HOW you eat that’s the key to effortlessly losing the weight!

It was 1 year ago at this time today that I was just arriving home from hernia surgery. I didn’t really feel to much that night but the next day DAMN!… I remember the nurse from the outpatient surgery center called to see how I was doing. I told that i was in pain and she asked was I taking my medicine. I said yes, I took 1 about an hour ago. She said that I think you need to read the label, you are supposed to take two. Oh well… I don’t like taking prescribed medicine but it help me sleep it off.

You will also notice the fat that has to disappear this year.

Since it took 3 months before I could workout with weights and another 3 to get back in a routine, this year I haven’t been too worried about the amount of weight that I push and pull, just the progress. Add to that, I don’t have a squat rack and work out alone (I live in the boonies). So I keep things to what I can lift sake over my head. I am looking to get a squat rack soon.
You will also notice that I kept the deadlifts to 4 sets. This is because I have only them with dumbbells since the hernia last December. I wanted to be a little careful.

Being that today was a trip down memory lane, I decided to go straight to the bar. That’s right hit up on the basics.
Since I am going to be starting Elliott Hulse’s Lean Hybrid Muscle Program next week, I figured that we would keep it simple, intense and quick tonight.

Today was simple; Barbell bench, barbell squats, barbell deadlifts & floor sweepers. I followed this up with a mango, banana – whey protein shake and a half of peanut butter sandwich on wheat bread.
