Millions of people have tried both “low-carb” and “no-carb” approaches in an attempt to lose weight quickly. But few have tried a much safer and healthier approach known as Carb Rotation. It is a much more effective and realistic method of rapid fa-t loss.

There are two general approaches to Carb Rotating. The first approach is to follow a “no, no, no, high carb” program. This means you would eat no carbohydrates at all for the first three days and then eat a “high” amount of carbohydrates on for the fourth day. The fifth day you are back to eating “no carbs” again.

This plan can be effective, but you have to be very strict. It is an aggressive approach that may trigger your starvation response. Yes, the very same starvation response which causes elevation of a hormone called lipoprotein lipase. When this hormone becomes elevated your metabolism begins to slow down. And since that is the last thing anyone who is trying to get rid of unwanted pound-s wants, it is not the approach I recommend.

Additionally, when people deprive themselves completely of “carbs” for three days they have a tendency to:

1) Go completely overboard with carbohydrate consumption on the fourth day of the rotation.

2) Not be able to go back to the three days of carbohydrate deprivation resulting in failure of the program.

The much more common sense approach is to follow a “high, low, no carb” program. There is much more room for error with this type of plan. It is much easier to follow and leads to much greater success.

Rotating your “carbs” in this manner allows you to shed fat and keep your metabolism elevated, which is the key to long term weight loss. There is a consistent transition with a “high, low, no” approach because every fourth day you repeat the cycle and you aren’t depriving yourself of “carbs” for three days straight. And again: potentially triggering the elevation of lipoprotein lipase.

We tend to eat too many “carbs”, we eat improper “carbs” and we don’t eat enough protein in our diet. But by following the guidelines laid out in a “high, low, no carb” program we are manipulating the blood sugars and insulin response in our body to achieve rapid of fat loss. Rotating Carbs allows you to control and manipulate your blood sugars and insulin response so you are allowing your body to burn more calories for energy instead of storing “carbs” as fat. This means you are shedding fat and increasing your metabolism. Two very good things!

Odd subject, right? Let me explain… we all go through different psychological phases and each phase illicits a certain amount of action.

The 3 phases are:

1) Contentment - state of being satisfied.

2) Frustration - feeling of dissatisfaction, often accompanied by anxiety or depression

3) Anger - a strong feeling of displeasure

Usually, these three phases take place in order and revert back to contentment when we find the solution we’re looking for… and somewhere along the line (it’s different for each person) we decide to take real action to solve the problem…

Which leads me to a recent story…. about me.. yes, about me. I’m a bit embarrassed by it, but what the hell, here goes…

I currently workout in a little gym at my local high school that can hold about 4-5 people max. It’s not a typical gym, it’s basically a weight room. And when I go up there, I’m usually alone…. it’s just me and the weights.

Since it’s just me, and since it’s just a weight room, I can pretty much do whatever I want - workout shirtless, workout in my underoos… bascially just whatever.

So, I have to tell you, the past 3 years I was hit by "life" - you know, you get lazy, you concentrate more on work, business, and your social life… and at the same time, you get fat as hell…

And 99% of the time, you don’t even notice it - Until you see a picture of yourself at a party, or in my case…

Actually SEE yourself without a shirt on while you’re working out.

It hit me last week like a ton of fuggin’ bricks… Standing there watching rep after rep, 40 pounds heavier than I’ve ever been in my entire life… and…

Fatter than I’ve ever been, EVER.

Seriously, it’s depressing, it’s embarrassing, and it flat out pisses me off that I’ve let myself come to this, when I’ve always said I wouldn’t.

Nearly everything I’ve done in life has been motivated by emotion… moreover emotion that causes action. The 2 most motivating emotions are Frustration and Anger…

To call my current state a state of anger when I look at myself shirtless in the mirror is a severe understatement. Embarrassing to tell you about it? Hell yes, I mean HELL YES it’s embarrassing to tell the people who I’m advising and teaching about fat loss that I’m the fattest I’ve ever been.

Well life happens… I know it all too well. I feel your pain, I’ve walked in your shoes, and I’m doing something about it, and coincidentally enough, if you’re in a similar situation, we’ll be working side by side… so let’s go ahead and get down to the meat of this blog post…

I want to help you, if you’re frustrated… if you’re angry…. I want you to tell me about it. That way I can feel exactly where you’re coming from and help you by telling me where you are right now, why you think you feel the way you do, and where you want to go…

Simply scroll down and leave your comment below.

are you….

Content about your current fitness level? Perfectly happy with the way you look, the way you feel, and the way others respond to you?

Frustrated? Do you feel slightly content, but when you look into the mirror, do you get frustrated because you have a bit more pudge than you’d like? Are you frustrated looking for a solution, but not really sure what to do? Frustrated, but hope something comes along and draws your attention, and when it does, you’ll "KNOW" that’s the solution?

Angry? Have you past the point of being frustrated, and now when you look in the mirror or try on new clothes it makes you feel damned determined to lose weigh-t.. and lose it NOW? So displeased with things, that you do anything to help drop fa-t? I’ll raise my hand on this one.

PS - I’m heading my fat ass to the gym to dive back into my 6 Pack Abs program. (Yes, this is the very program I’m using to lose fat).

PPS - I’ll get some "reverse" before and after pictures up soon - you know, pictures from 3 years ago when I was slim & trim with 7% bodyfat… plus pictures of me now trying to whip myself back into shape… so you’ll get to see before (Six Pack Abs) and After (Being Lazy & Fat for 3 Years)…

Developing 6 Pack Abs is one of the most sought after goals in the world. Often times people are confused about what it really takes to develop flat six pack abs, and end up spending countless hours doing crunch after crunch, searching for just the right exercise to get a 6 pack.

Sadly, if you’re searching for the perfect exercise for six pack abs, you’ll never find it. However, ab exercises are important to your program if you truly are seeking six pack abs, it’s just not the most important factor.

If your looking for ideas for ab workouts & exercises, you can find 3 tricks that will spice things up for you at the 6 Pack Abs Exercises article page.

Nothing is more frustrating than when you suddenly realize you’ve packed on the pounds, and you’re not sure how or why. Maybe your exercise routine hasn’t changed? Maybe you feel like you still eat fairly healthy? One thing is for certain, you’ve added weight & you want quick weight loss, and you want it now.

Sometimes it’s difficult to nail down the culprit of the weight gain, more times than not it has to do with nutrition. Even if you think you’re “eating healthy”, it’s worth the time to re-evaluate your nutrition program. If things are in ship shape, then it could possibly be your meal frequency & timing.

In today’s busy world, it can be tough to remember that you need to pause for a second and eat a quick healthy meal to ensure you keep your metabolism roaring.

Here’s a tip that’s taken straight out of the HowtoGetSixPackAbs.com manual to make sure you keep your meal timing on schedule.

To start applying the strategy immediately, head on over to the quick weight loss article page.

The most common question I get is “How Can I Get this Weight Off my Belly in the Quickest time possible?”

Unfortunately, the answer isn’t as simple as it may seem. Some people can lose 10 pounds within 7 days, and for others it may take 2 weeks, and possibly as long as 4-6 weeks to lose the same 10 pounds.

Quick Weight Loss is different depending on the individual, but there are 3 golden rules that MUST be followed to Lose Weight Quickly, and if you follow them to the Tee, you’ll be amazed at the results.

I have a quick goof up story of one of my own blunders in the gym back in the early years.

Growing up, the only access to weights and weight training I had was at my high school. It was a DUMP. Literally, if I left the weight room without being so dirty that I looked like I had been working on a broken down car, I felt as if I didn’t get a good work out. Everything was rusty, old, and broken down. But it was home.

Even in college, I’d look to the bare bones facilities for my workouts.. not sure why, but I just felt comfortable working out and getting dirty.

Well, fast forward 2000, I began working at an upscale Gym in Baton Rouge. The equipment was nice, the people were nice, everything about the place was nice. So as you can imagine, finishing up a workout and still having the clothes I was wearing clean was something new to me. It just felt odd.

So, anyway, as I was getting used to working out on all the new equipment, I was at the cable cross over machine working my triceps. You know the contraptions, it has a weight stack with a cable running vertical & wrapping around a pulley, etc.

Well, I had a fairly heavy tricep bar attached to the end of the cable, when I reached down to pull the pin & adjust the weight stack, a few of the plates (5-10 lbs) started slowly rising on their own. Bent over and Baffled, I just stared at it slowly rising for about 5 seconds… then…

BAM!

Something smashed me on the top of my head. After jumping to the side as fast as I could to figure out whether or not I had just gotten pummeled by a bodybuilder that wanted my machine, I realized….

The tricep bar that was attached to the end of the cable weighed about 15 pounds. Since it was on a pulley against only 10 pounds after I pulled the pin, the bar began to fall…

And walloped me upside the head.

Needless to say, I felt like an idiot. Luckily there weren’t many people at the gym that day, but a cute little girl was over in the corner looking at me giggling…

She had seen the whole thing..

Just wonderful.

If you have a similar story, feel free to post them in the comments section below. I’d love to hear about them.

Not many people know it, but i have a passion for tennis…

I know, right? Can you imagine seeing 240lbz of muscle running around on a tennis court chasing a little green fuzzy ball for hours at a time??

I can’t either, and I’m sure it’s a sight to see…

And I even catch people that witness it with their own eyes doing a few double takes as they walk by, but allow me to brag a little…

I’m damn good at it..

– end of brag –

Anyway, the reason I bring up tennis, is that this video is shot at a local tennis court. A few buddy’s and I were going out for a quick practice session…

…and I decided to bring a video camera and an 8 pound med ball.

This exercise is K-I-L-L-E-R.. one of my all time favs because you get a kick butt ab workout and you don’t even realize it, because your main focus is having fun and focusing on your partner & the ball..

Alright, so a few of my clients are itching to speed up their stomach fat loss. Although there are advanced strategies, I’m a big believer in setting a strong foundation of exercise & nutrition for at least the first 4 weeks.

At this point, once you have proper eating down pat, it has become a habit, and you’ve reached a point in your exercise program that you can crank the intensity to 100% - it’s time to speed the fat loss up with advanced nutrition strategies.

To get started, you need to calculate the number of calories you need per day to lose 2-3 pounds of fat per week. At week 4, you can begin Carb Depletion Staggering.
