Weight loss myths and facts

At the beginning of this book I want to say that failures that people encounter trying to lose

weight are largely due to the huge amount of myths in society. What do I mean? To understand

this, select from the list below the products that lead to obesity and therefore are unsuitable for a

diet designed to reset the body fat: rice, meat, buckwheat, honey, muesli, eggs ... and this would

probably be enough. Unfortunately, I know your answer (at least most of you). I am sure that

without a doubt you have excluded from the list: meat and eggs, recognizing buckwheat, rice,

honey, indispensable in the diet. This is absolutely not true. Eating such foods as rice, buckwheat

or for God’s sake cereals (and in fact many are really satisfied with such a diet) you just grow fat

(below I will explain why). Unfortunately, when you talk to people, they often refuse to believe.

The tragedy lies in the fact that the majority does not even have basic knowledge in physiology,

and they respectively, make false conclusions, but more often they are confused by advertising

and the media. The same thing about muesli where some smart guy dares to claim that they

contribute to slimming! You won’t be able to lose weight , because cereals contain high amounts

of carbohydrates with a high glycemic index, this also applies to rice . In fact, cereal is just some

kind of crap filled with sugar , which can easily add you, dear reader fatty growths on the sides

and on your ass. On the other hand still in the 60's. the last century, many bodybuilders were

burning huge amounts of fat consuming only meat and water. This is an extreme method , but it

clearly shows that consumption of meat contrary to popular opinion, does not lead to obesity.

Vegetarianism - another superstition. The question about how consumption of meat harms the

body is only a myth. This myth successfully is used by sellers of soybean, that had made a

brilliant advertising to this product . On the other hand I admire these guys - before soy protein

had been used as a fertilizer for pigs, but now they make from it soy milk, sausages, burgers,

etc., which are sold at a price exceeding the cost of the original product. The fact that the raw

materials for their production (soybeans), in relation to meat are very cheap, so the idea is to

make people believe that soy can substitute meat products, with such an idea could come up only

a genius of advertising. They say that, scientists have found that soy contains large amounts of

protein. This is nonsense! Indeed soybeans contains protein, but it is very poorly absorbed. In

addition, soy contains large amounts of carbohydrates, and they (this will be explained later)

primarily contribute to weight gain. Pure vegetarian diet does more harm than good, and is

acceptable only for people who lead a sedentary lifestyle. Perhaps, they will be able to get the

desired set of amino acids from proteins of plant origin, but people who practice sport (should

not expect to get rid of fat without any physical activity) or have a job related to physical labor

(constructions for example),need proteins of animal origin. So, further , when I say

protein, I mean just products of animal origin

Vitamins. After the topic of vegetarianism another myth is related to vitamins. What is the

reason that many people believe that vitamins are found only in fruits and vegetables. Vitamins

are different, some of them are contained in foods of plant origin, others - in food of animal

origin. In order to dispel "the myth of vitamins I will give you the following example: In vitamin

C, (which became the collective image of all vegetables and fruits),is very rich such a product as

liver.

Training.In this area, exist an incredible amount of prejudices, in particular one of them is the

that in order to lose weight one needs to exercise every day, for several hours. So, this is not just

a myth, it is nonsense! Or another myth is that weight training (bodybuilding), which is an

integral part of my program, leads to impotence. This is even more delirious than the daily

training, as muscle growth is largely determined by the quantity of male sex hormones in the

body, in simple terms if weight training would contribute to stoping their secretion

(production), muscles would not be able to grow. Impotence occurs only because of the large

usage of anabolic steroids (i.e., synthetic male sex hormones), and only after prolonged usage

in immoderate doses; but bodybuilding only stimulates male sex hormones in the body.

Nevertheless, there is no need for women to fear weight training, assuming that it will make

them look like a man. This is just another myth, and those manlike creatures that we can see

competing in women's bodybuilding, "grow" only with the help of anabolic steroids. Remember,

dear woman, your body does not allow itself to be remade.

Another myth – you need to lose not more than 2-3 kg a month. This seems to be an adequate

opinion, but it is based on the doctors statements. For someone who has a small problem with

body fat (5 - 10 kg.) This rate of weight loss is really optimal.. In the first place, it does not

bring discomfort, as there is no need for serious dietary restrictions. But most importantly no loss

of muscle mass (remember that your goal is not to lose weight in general, but to burn FAT

without losing muscle. But the man who had 40, 60, 80 or, 100 extra pounds (as I had, and I got

rid of them in a year), the opinion of losing such a pathetic amount of weight is just

discouraging.

What I find most annoying, is that people believe in some magical pill or potion that will make

them slim and will help lose weight. Remember, no pill will make your body beautiful and

strong if you just lie on the couch (lying on the couch is also a part of my program, and it is very

important! Yes, this is not a joke.). Of course, there are special dietary supplements (more on

that later) to facilitate the struggle for a fit and strong body.

Massage. Again, this procedure does not contribute to weight loss. This applies to manual

massage and the so-called Muscle Stimulation, which I am sure you have seen being advertised

many times on TV.

At the end of the introduction, I want to give you another tip. If someone promises you a magic

product for "cleansing" the body and adjusting it to "work correctly, and so on , there is a

probability of 99.9% that this is another crook trying to sell you a useless drug.

Training for weight loss

You need to maintain lean muscle mass, by losing fat. Therefore, weight training is necessary .

And, you need to perform only compound movements like squats, various pushes and pulls (in

particular dead lifts), and only with barbells and dumbbells.

The duration of training should not exceed one hour, including warm-ups.

The number of sets and reps can be slightly increased, in comparison with growing muscle mass

and strength. A little - which means a maximum of 12 repetitions and no more than six sets.

Train in such a way (short and intense workouts ! only compound exercises- which involve

several muscle groups when performed) should be no more than 2 (two!) times a week. For

example, performing only squat, bench press and pull-ups, at the first training session, and

military presses, biceps curls and dead lifts at the second workout. The SQUAT and the DEAD

LIFT must be performed ALWAYS!!!A very important thing is that, the weight you train with,

should remain the same at every workout.

But don’t even dream about increasing your strength during fat loss, it is simply impossible.

Burning fat, and muscle growth - are two different processes (anabolism and catabolism, i.e. the

synthesis of the tissue and its destruction), which do not "get along" in the body at the same

time. Of course if you will manage to increase your strength during weight loss , I'll be happy for

you. But, if the weights do not grow, don’t be discouraged because this is a normal thing when

burning fat.

So, you workout two times a week with weights. And also two times a week, you must perform

Interval training.

What is , "interval training".

This type of physical activity is also an important component of the program. It consists of

alternating stress of high intensity and low intensity, i.e., you workout in a mixed aerobic-

anaerobic mode. Interval training can be performed anywhere: in the pool, at the stadium, on the

street, etc. Take, for example, a stadium. Interval training is performed as follows: you run long

sections of the stadium with a maximum acceleration, and short sections - you walk. This type of

physical activity is a very powerful weapon in the fight against body fat. You should take into

consideration the fact that interval training is often considered to be aerobics.

For a beginner with a large amount of extra weight even running in place will be a hard

challenge. After "Running" a few seconds, he will stop, and walk to catch his breath. This, in

fact, is still the same interval training, but sometimes it is called aerobics.

Well, firstly, our body is a very complex machine, and attempts to improve it without proper

knowledge will lead to overtraining. So always be aware of what you're doing and choose the

form of physical activity that is suitable for you.

For example, I choose as interval training kick-boxing, but you can choose anything you like:

basketball, football, hockey, swimming. The most important are the alternating periods of high

intensity with periods of low intensity. Nevertheless, I recommend that all men (but in no case

for women, and especially girls) to choose martial arts as interval training.

Interval training is less intense than weight training, and you can perform it a little longer. What

does this "little" mean, you must identify individually , but 1.5 hours is the limit! But remember,

after this kind of training , the sweat will be flowing like a river. Remember also that if you

exchange intensity in favor of duration of the workout; you are committing a mistake. The

most important thing is the intensity !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why? Read further.

After all, many are advised to perform aerobics to get rid of fat. And this seems to be logic

because when you simply walk, ride a bicycle, perform light jogging, etc.), the body uses fat as

an energy source. And when you workout intensively (sprint, do a series of punches or lift

weights in a low or average number of repetitions), the body uses for energy creatine phosphate

(CP) and glycogen (energy stocked and brought from inside of the muscle). And if fat is not

used, then the load is useless, right? No.

Fat is not used during intensive exercises for two reasons:

a) to produce energy from fat it must be oxidized (burnt), and for this you need oxygen, which is

missing (the load is too heavy, and the related systems of the body are unable to deliver enough

oxygen).

b) fat contains a lot of energy (1 molecule of fat contains twice the calories than a molecule of

protein or carbohydrates), but it can not provide a sufficiently high power, as the EC or glycogen

(i.e., the energy output of 1 molecule of oxygen, is using less fat).

Fat is not used during an intense workout. But immediately after the workout the situation

changes .

The most interesting thing starts after the workout.

When you do aerobic exercise (easily run), you spend energy. If you stop- then you don’t spend

(excluding energy for maintaining the vital functions of the body ). But after an intense workout

with weights the body keeps spending energy and burning calories, i.e. you are lying on the

couch, and the fat is melting. But for this thing to happen the workout should be really intense.

Intensity - is the amount of muscular effort per time unit. The longer the training, lesser the

intensity. It is important not to confuse the term “intensity” with "difficulty". A training session

that lasts 3 hours to exhaustion is more difficult than 1 hour of workout , even if it is performed

at maximum intensity. But still more effective is high intensity training instead of long and

exhausting workouts.

So what you must understand is that after an intense workout the body consumes additional

energy for recovery.

And so: you do (for example) sprints - the energy level drops and you decrease your speed, to

give body some time to restore its energy (to catch your breath) but you don’t stop, but keep

running in a lower pace or just walking. In this way the body recovers from intense stress, and it

keeps consuming energy when you’re walking or running in a lower pace. Interval training is a

really powerful weapon in the fight against fat!

Thus it turns out that we only train 4 times a week, but I am sure you want to ask me the

following, “but if I work hard every day, how fast I will lose weight”. My answer is – if you train

every day you will never lose weight because you will be tired. But if you still will continue

training and going to the gym only with the power of the will not taking into consideration the

fact that you are tired, unfortunately it will do no good, because the body will consider this as

an extreme situation, and it will use every opportunity to store fat. The body turns on its

mechanism of defense , and will prepare for your workouts to avoid dying! In general, your

metabolism will slow down, which will also slow the fat burning processes.

Therefore, after each workout should be a day of "rest" (because fat is still burning)The ideal

training program would look like this:

Monday - strength training (weight training) ;

Tuesday - rest;

Wednesday - Interval training ;Thursday - rest;

Friday - strength training (weight training) ;

Saturday - rest;

Sunday - interval training;

Monday - rest;

and so on.

In general, the schedule should be adjusted to yourself. Just remember – don’t train more than

four times a week, but if you feel fatigue or, aversion to training, feel free to skip a training

session (remember what I said about the slowing of metabolism)! But try to find where you have

made a mistake , i.e., where you increased the difficulty or trained to much.

So, we have somewhere around five hours of workout per week. During the rest of the time –

you need to relax! and recover! This means , no physical activity! Recover your strength and

energy for the next training session...

To lose weight for real, i.e. not simply reduce your body in size and burn fat without losing

muscle you need proper nutrition. There is a misconception that diet aimed for getting rid of fat

is difficult and not tasty. Basically this is because of the myths regarding weight loss, which I

mentioned at the beginning this book. Of course, if you can not imagine your life without any

junk food like chips, noodles and soda, then I feel sorry for you, it’s going to be a little hard for

you to diet!

But if you eat more or less natural products, rather than their synthetic derivatives, everything is

in order. Come on.

Proper diet for weight loss

In short the diet should be like this:- a lot of protein. Up to 4 grams per kilogram of your own

weight, low carbohydrates and fats.

Now details

Why so much protein? Protein isn’t stored in the form of fat. No, of course, the body can

convert proteins into fat, but with the above mentioned workouts and lack of carbohydrates

transformation of proteins is just idiocy, because our body will not do that due to the large

amount of fat present that it used instead.

Why do we need so mush protein:

1) for muscle mass maintenance.

2) As I have said you must train intensively, and for training in such a manner we need energy

in the form of muscle glycogen. Where do we get it, if we don’t eat carbohydrates? Right ! from

protein! When there is a lack of carbohydrates, the liver extracts from proteins alanine, and from

(attention!) FAT - glycerol, to produce glucose (a simple carbohydrate) from which will be

synthesized glycogen.

Now about carbohydrates. They need to be almost entirely excluded from your meal. Why. To

answer this question let's consider the concept of glycemic index (GI).

All carbohydrates (monosaccharides, oligosaccharides and polysaccharides, i.e. simple, medium

and complex carbohydrates) from our bodies are eventually processed into glucose (simple

carbohydrate) – blood sugar. The speed of this process reflects the concept of GI. That is, the

faster a carbohydrate turns into glucose, the higher the GI, and vice versa.

Glucose is needed by cells as a source of energy (and for the nerve cells - glucose is the only

source of energy), and "someone" should deliver it to the cells. This "someone" is a hormone

called insulin.

In a healthy body (if not diabetic) if the levels of glucose in blood increase this leads to

increasing the insulin levels, which is intended to deliver received glucose into cells. When we

eat carbohydrates with low GI, the glucose enters the cells (eg, muscle), and is completely

absorbed by them. If we eat carbohydrates with high GI - this leads to a jump in blood sugar. i.e.

the level of glucose rises , and in response to that increases the production of insulin. Glucose

rushes into cells, which are simply unable to absorb such a quantity of "fuel" per unit of time,

even if the total amount of glucose that enters the organism during the day is small. But there is

an exception - the fat cells. And therefore all the glucose which can not be absorbed, will be

totally assimilated by the fat cells.

Many people are asking such a question - what if I eat foods with low and middle-GI

(legumes, whole grains, many fruits and vegetables)?

Well, generally speaking, you can eat , but if the amount of carbohydrates is exceeded – you

won’t lose weight, but gain it.

And now the answer to the question why exclude carbohydrates from the diet.

1) To make the body to synthesize carbohydrates from fat.

2) insulin. One of the reasons why some people easily gain weight - the fact is that their body

produces more insulin. This hormone drastically reduces catabolic processes in the body

(including the burning fat process )

Most people think that carbohydrates are our enemies...

This is not true. When there is a lack of carbohydrates metabolism slows down and the body

begins to consume fewer calories during rest periods and when exercising. Fat Burning slows.

So what should I do then?? Some people advise that every few days to increase the

consumption of carbohydrates. But more correctly would be to increase the consumption of

carbohydrates once every several weeks not days.

Also, it is vital to take a portion of carbohydrates after a workout And here are the appropriate

carbohydrates with a high GI index (rice, potatoes, pasta , and also you can eat something sweet,

but only immediately after workout). At this time the body requires a strong "stimulation of

carbohydrates".

And one more bag of tricks. From scientists can often hear: “Fats burns in the fire of

carbohydrates”. This means that a certain amount of carbohydrates is necessary for burning fat.

For this during a workout, use a small amount of carbohydrates in a sweet drink, such as jam

with water (just do not buy all sorts of carbohydrate supplements!!!).

Also, you must eat enough fiber. Not less than 400g of raw vegetables and fruits (except

bananas, potatoes, etc.). Fiber is needed in order to "sweep" from your digestive system

breakdown products of proteins. Besides fiber, you need to consume large amounts of fluid.

Now about the water. You should always drink a lot of water.

Now about food additives.

The only nutritional supplement that can help burn fat - is ephedrine.It is usually used with sugar

with aspirin and caffeine. Everything Else - extortion of money I can only say that if you have a

heart disease, particularly mitral valve prolapse, consumption of this additive is prohibited. And

if you want to use it I suggest you to consult your doctor!

The only supplement that I used - strong coffee. Caffeine stimulates the nervous system, and

helps you train more intensively.

Drink coffee before training, recommended an hour before the workout. Coffee won’t help you

lose weight but is has a stimulating effect, very useful when you are on a low the carbohydrate

diet.

That’s all you need to know for losing weight! At the end of the book there is a list of products

that you can use for planning your daily meal. Good luck!
