Guy Leech Is Wrong - Fast Workouts Are Your Answer

On Sunrise yesterday there was a segment on 15 minute workouts and they had former Ironman Guy Leech on there for his 2 cents worth.

Guy wasn't in favour of them and I am here today to tell you why he is wrong.

Apparently some gyms have offered 15 minute workouts as a solution for busy professionals who don't have the time to train the traditional way.

I think this is a great idea for 2 reasons:

1) It breaks the excuse that people don't have time to exercise. 15 minutes is pretty doable for anybody right? If not, watch less tv each night or stop being a slave to your email or facebook account.

2) It is better than not doing anything. 15 minutes is a start and it creates a habit. Make it doable. Do critics of this concept realise how hard it is for people who have avoided a training lifestyle for whatever reason to get their head around the concept of going to a gym for 45 minutes or an hour?

We have got to do something about this obesity epidemic as it's getting out of hand. For once I agree with something the big gyms have to say. I know some of you may find this hard to believe, but they are being proactive.

What better time to introduce that person to an exercise habit just after they have made their New Years Resolution?

After that if they decide to make the extra commitment then great. If 15 minute workouts are still getting them results, even better!

Surely these busy professionals will be less stressed, more productive at work and home feel a whole lot better from the activity.

Guy's negatives against the concept seem to be that when you allow time for a warm up and cool down that doesn't leave much time for actual exercise.

My argument is that people can take a couple of minutes and do a cool down stretch on there own once they have been shown how.

A simple bodyweight warm up can take only 3-4 minutes or so to get the body warm and ready for activity, leaving over 10 minutes for a quality class.

If people don't believe that you can get a quality workout in under 15 minutes they obviously haven't heard of the Aussie Fatblast Success System or seen this routine that I posted on my other blog on Tuesday.

That workout took me 9 minutes to complete and I was smashed afterwards.

Don't make excuses, make time.

Weight Loss Secret Tip: Protein, Protein, Protein

Whenever you hear somebody give you their latest tip to help increase your weight loss results, you can guarantee that there will be something different given out each time as the latest and greatest fad that will "definitely work for you".

The one tip that is rarely ever spoken about however is to ensure that you eat protein with each and every single meal. Why is protein so beneficial? There are a number of reasons but let me start from the top.

The most important reason why you should be having some type of protein with each and every meal that you eat each day is because it increases your body's sense of fullness.

What does this mean? Well, to put it simply, you will not be as hungry after eating something that has protein as the major ingredient. You will feel fuller longer. Compare this to if you eat something that is highly processed and full of sugars like potato chips.

Your body will be craving them and without a doubt you will be feeling hungry again almost as soon as you finish your mouthful and you will want to eat more and more without ever getting that sense of fullness until you have stuffed yourself silly.

Another great reason is because protein is also known as the body's building block. It is used to repair your muscles after training and exercise. By having protein you will be helping repair those muscles that you have exhausted during your session and it will help you emerge leaner and stronger as a result.

Now that you know two reasons why protein is essential to your daily diet requirements, what are the best sources for you to get this protein?

Glad you asked! The best sources are those that are fresh and natural. Good examples include lean meats like turkey and chicken breast; lean red meats are also a good source.

Eggs, nuts, seeds, lentils, tofu, and beans are also all great ways to get your protein intake each day. You could even include Greek yoghurt as a good protein source as this has little human interference. Being a vegetarian is no excuse as you saw some great examples above that are vegetarian options.

Protein is an essential component of every meal that you have from breakfast right through to your after dinner snack. Once you realise the importance that protein plays in your weight loss role, only then will you be able to finally achieve the body that you deserve and rightly desire.

Press Release: Fat Loss Tips for Busy Professionals: Lack of Time Excuses Blasted

Kickin' Goals n Pushin' Weight

Personally I love the feeling that you get after a workout.

I'm feeling a bit like that right now. I just got done with a good weights session not so long ago and my arms are still shaking a bit as a write this.

In fact I dropped my water bottle as I was filling it up because I couldn't handle the extra weight!

This brings me to my words for today from a bloke that passed away in 1989 but his words are just as relevant today as they were during his time here.

This blokes name was Earl Nightingale:

"People with goals succeed because they know where they are going. It's as simple as that."

I have my goals, some of them include working out and keeping in shape.

Others are personal goals.

Some are business goals.

One of those business goals I finally knocked off on Friday with the launch of my Aussie Fatblast Success System - the ultimate fat loss resource for the busy professional.

I am sure you saw my email from Friday so I won't go on anymore here.

But in case you missed it, I am having a massive launch sale offer until this Friday which I strongly encourage you to be a part of. You can read more here.

But, more importantly, back to you.

What are your goals?

You DO have goals don't you?

If you don't it would be just like trying to find a watering hole in the desert. You'll just be wandering along aimlessly for ever.

I strongly encourage you to plan your trip.

Plan your goals and let me know them by replying in the comments section here.

We can both keep each other accountable.

Don't let fear hold you back!
