Tips to loose weight and a great mass newsletter

Tips to loose weight.
1. Do not eat poor quality carbohydrates. Poor quality carbohydrates are those that contain sugar or are highly processed. These would include white breads, rolls and bagels, snack foods, candies, and even fruit juices. Eating these foods often will likely result in increased fat deposit and will prevent your body from maintaining a successful fat-burning mode. 2. Increase your muscle mass! The more lean muscle you have, the more calories your body will burn even at rest. Muscle is extremely active metabolically. Do some resistance training, add some muscle, and crank up that metabolism. 3. Never let yourself get too hungry, or too stuffed. It really is all about moderation. Time your meals so that you eat before you are starving . . . doing this one simple thing will cause you to almost always eat less. When you do eat, stop when your satisfied not when you are so stuffed you cannot even get down another bite. 4. Double up on your cardio training. From time to time it may be beneficial to the fat-burning process for you to split your cardio training into two short sessions rather than one longer one. Studies suggest that people who do 30 minutes of morning cardio and then 30 minutes of evening cardio lose more fat than those doing just one 60 minute session. 5. Eat more high fiber foods. Most of us do not get enough fiber in our daily diets, and that’s just a shame. Fiber not only promotes overall general health, but also can significantly aid in your fat-burning efforts. Vegetables, beans, whole-grains and nuts are ideal sources of fiber
During the summer months eat more fruits or vegetables that are high in water, and also increase you water intake.

I’ve been receiving a great MASS newsletter here is a link to it check it out!

In my own workouts I've lowered the weight and decreased the rest time between sets to almost nothing, giving an almost cardio affect.
