Essential Weight Loss Information

The most efficient and effective way to lose weight with exercise!! 

• Workout in circuits of weight lifting. 
• Muscles burn calories therefore all muscle groups!

• Use as many muscle groups as possible in every session. 
• Make the workouts short on time but efficient.

The explanation below on stress is the reason why many people who go to the gym and spend more than an hour on a cardio-machine have a hard time losing weight and might even gain weight!

STRESS - Do you struggle to lose weight?

Also I need to stress the fact that:

• workouts for the average person losing weight should not be longer than 45 minutes. 
• After 45 minutes of exercise your body goes into stress mode. 
• Our bodies recognize stress by releasing the same stress hormones and activating our immune response no matter the cause, be it loss of a family member, trauma, money, relationships etc. 
• Stress is good for our bodies IF it happens once in a while because it activates our adrenaline and wakes up our immune system.

There are two harmful types of stress: 1st

• A long term stress like a divorce, financial distress, work deadlines, abuse etc. 
• Our adrenaline response is on for too long and wears out the body’s energy. 
• This is why many people get sick after the stressful period when the immune system drops in order to recover.

The other one is sneaky and usually the most common form of stress:

• Short, consistent stress periods throughout the day, every day.
• For example; you wake up late, have a breakfast on the go so your digestion is also stressed, miss the bus or get stuck in traffic, get to work late and get yelled at from your boss, your behind in work so you have to stay later, get home and have to cook for your kids or for yourself, you’re in a bad mood and how can you not be, you yell and nag at everyone because you feel overwhelmed etc. you get the point.

• This is how many of us live our life daily 
• It is one of the biggest reasons why the population is gaining weight and is susceptible to all kinds of diseases. 
• Our bodies are literally giving up on us and those stress hormones pack the weight around the belly as a means to protect the organs because the body needs a lot of calories to activate our immune system. 
• This is why stress kills and the reason why the belly is the hardest place to lose weight.

 It is the combination of 

• Exercise
• Healthy Eating Habits, and 
• Reducing your Stress with meditation or hypnosis

that will lead you to a healthy, beautiful, long life.
