The Taking The Stairs Way To Failure
Posted by Brad under Energy Flux, Fat Loss
If you haven’t noticed already, I am a huge fan about this new phenomenon that’s starting to come around. Of course, if you’ve been following for the past few months, you’ll know that I am talking about “energy flux”.
So what IS this topic about…
Let’s just say that it’s the anti-diet.
Seriously, the whole basis behind it is pushing as many total calories through your body as possible and not gaining weight. Seems impossible right.
Well not only is it possible, but if your whole idea of fitness is getting absolutely RIPPED (and it should be), this should be the only protocol you should follow.
So, the mantra for right now is “Eat More, Move More, Lose More”
There are a few studies that have to do with energy flux and I’ll share one with you tomorrow.
All I ask is that you hold your feelings about this controversial subject until a few days from now. I am about to show you how to get in better shape and in less time per day than you have ever thought possible.
Oh, and I’m not talking about the whole “make sure to take the stairs instead of the elevator deal”
You know what, before I get started on energy flux tomorrow, I’ll tell you why everyone tells you to “find ways to exercise” (like the stairs thing). I truly feel that the find ways to exercise through “everyday” activities is hurting most people.
You see, because of the state of obesity in the United States especially, many leaders and “gurus” just want people to do SOMETHING. Therefore, they tell people that you can get in shape and improve your health by increasing your activity level while doing mundane tasks.
But let’s be serious, do we really think that walking up the stairs everyday instead of taking the elevator will improve our fitness level THAT much. Really, you might take the stairs two times per day for a grand total of 5 minutes walking the stairs.
And, most people will be laboring up the stairs anyway all the while, telling themselves that they are taking the stairs instead of the elevator and their fitness levels are improving because of it… and they’ll think that that’s ALL they need to do
Do you really think that?
From what the research tells us, most people need to raise their metabolism in order to lose fat without crash dieting.
Two ways to increase your metabolism: weight training… interval training
Everything in life that is worthwhile takes a little W-O-R-K… including health and fitness. Don’t shortchange yourself by thinking otherwise.
