This is a new concept for me, an online weight loss doctor would ask and answer questions about weight loss. I found this article that may answer some online weight loss doctor questions.

In fact, an online weight loss doctor could have been a substitute for a real doctor, but unfortunately, it is not easy to find a reliable and honest online weight loss doctor. In this article I will give you some tips that will help you find a credible online doctor quickly. Read the rest of this entry »

As you can imagine top athletes are very particular with what they eat and when. I was over at a running blog today when I ran across the following article about Carb cycling.

Crib Sheet on Carbohydrate Cycling at Her Active Life

The basic idea behind carb cycling is that you eat every day based on the next day workouts. Some top athletes will build their eating around bog events as well as seasonal patterns of training and working out output.

Even if you are not really at the level of fitness and athleticism to take advantage of a concept like carb cycling this is a nice peek at what the real elite athletes think about when it comes to diet.

A few months ago I rolled out a series of emails that people could subscribe to for free. You may have seen the sign up form on other pages of this blog but I wanted to remind you about it now that spring seems to be poking out around the corner and so many of us are thinking about improving our fitness for the summer.

The series of emails somes every second day for 21 or so days and each day is dedicated to something differnect. Everyhting from eating, cardio, weights, water, protein, sleeping, how to get more energy, and even the attitudes that will get you in better shape.

I am pretty proud of the series of email and the creation was in part because I thought it would be nice to really cover all the bases in a short period of time. The time to act is now and I hope that you take the opportunity today to check this out as sign-up

If you would like more information on the emails and even sign up you can find more at the fitness plan signup page.

I would like to start this post just by saying that I know that there are many horrors of alcohol abuse and that there are many reasons why drinking alcohol may lead to an early exit but at the same time I just bottled my fourth batch of home made beer, Barons Beer actually, and thought that it would be fun to come up with a great big list of why beer is good for you.

Cancer preventer - A compound found only in hops, which are used to make beer, have been discovered to prevent cancer. Of course we all know that hops are an ingredient in beer and therefore Xanthohumol has high hopes of making beer a new anti cancer drug. Xanthohumol flavinoids have been tested and its use is hoped to be a preventative treatment against prostate and colon cancer and even may be a form of hormone therapy for women.

Getting your vitamins - A friend of mine used to say there is a pork chop in every glass of beer but recent studies show that there is vitamin B6 in beer increases the level of vitamin B6 in a beer drinkers blood which has been shown to decrease the level of homocysteine which increase the chances of heart disease.

I was looking at some articles at one of the big bodybuilding forums and ran into an article on cutting up- losing fat. Ripping Up: The Guide to Cutting
is not a really long article but it does give you some great ideas including keeping protein intake high, carbohydrates lower and lower fat as well. Also I noticed one supplement that the author is reccomending and that is Glutamine. Glutamine is a amino acid and there are many people out there that think that is will help in getting rid of fat.

You may be amazed at the amount of food eaten on this fat losing “diet” but look at the exercise as well. These guys would have lots of muscle and are doing cardio every morning and weights every evening. This is a great example of really pushing and making the changes necessary to lose fat….well lose it in time for the beach anyway
