The Secret to Increased Fat Loss
By Tom Venuto GHF’s
Fat Loss Expert
Ok, so you just got started on a program of walking or
light cardio and some basic lifting, maybe some dumbbell work, nothing
fancy. You feel better, you've lost a few pounds, you have more energy
and you're confident that you're getting healthier.
But you want more:
You want the results to come faster. You want to look in
the mirror and really SEE the difference. You want other people to see
the difference too. You want more than "a little tone." Maybe
you want a nice hard chiseled six-pack with a small waist, or maybe
streamlined, muscular thighs. Arms like Linda Hamilton perhaps? Shoulders
like Carl "Apollo Creed" Weathers? A Brad Pitt "Fight
Club" body maybe? Nothing too crazy - not a miss fitness Olympia
body or the massive bulk of a Mr. Universe - but definitely better than
average.
Well, if you're prepared to STEP UP to the next level and
pay the price necessary to reach the next rung on the ladder, here's
how you do it….
The answer is very, very simple. As you leave the novice
stage behind, it's time to start WORKING HARDER. That's it! Were you
expecting something more esoteric? Some secret Bulgarian periodization
program and thermogenic - anabolic supplement stack? Sorry, but the
secret is that there is no secret. A great body all boils down to outright
effort and hard work. Not counting the genetic freaks who seem to have
been born with muscles and zero fat, there's one thing that all people
with great bodies have in common: they all work HARD, HARD, HARD!
If you want to ascend beyond the lowly beginner level you
simply have to push yourself harder. And that means DIS-COMFORT. When
you're pushing yourself out of the comfort zone, it hurts. Frankly,
sometimes it sucks! But outside the comfort zone is where you grow.
Staying inside the comfort zone will only maintain you at best but usually
it sends you plummeting into a downward spiral. Most people retreat
back into the confines of their comfort zone the minute the effort gets
difficult. The comfort zone is a very dangerous place because if you
slide back into the comfort zone even once, then it starts becoming
a habit.
First, it's stopping just a few minutes short on your cardio
or coasting on level 5 when you could be doing level 7. Then you start
blowing off workouts completely. Pretty soon, you're sliding back in
other areas of your life; you slide back from making those sales calls;
you slide back from spending quality time with your family, you slide
back from saving money and watching your finances. You become.... A
BACKSLIDER!
You can either be a backslider or you can be an ACHIEVER
but you can't be both and you can't "hang out" in between
- it's one or the other. Although you might think you're safe just "maintaining"
in the comfort zone, unbeknownst to you, you are always in motion in
either a forward or a backward direction. There's no such thing as standing
still; ask any physicist - everything in the universe is always in motion...vibrating...
pulsating... growing or dying.
The ACHIEVER is the person who is aware that to "stand
still inside the comfort zone" is akin to dying, so he or she is
ALWAYS MOVING FORWARD. The only way to move forward is with hard work
and effort in the direction of a specific goal.
