Is your workout routine making you fat?

So many women are on what I call the cardio weight loss program. I was on it myself for years! I was given the wrong information from people who I thought knew the right answers. I will say that I did not find the right answers until after I turned 30! And it was transforming as well as freeing.<br /> <br /> The misconception that women have is that weight loss makes you look good and this can only be achieved by cardio and reduced caloric intake. At the same time, most women believe that weight training will make you big and bulky and cause you to gain weight.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-xYWgYwrzNZcoz-q9QDORlsyJ_mss4meHZEVwXe5ZdXCETLaekJ3CLg5KQscVnojGfa4d1pI8maFLusPJPYs90liwfQvGI2f-yJT1mMWwrZvIl9dWWHqI4B5mx_keI4G0GmQnMkoqBFkb/s1600/cardiomisconception.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="134" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-xYWgYwrzNZcoz-q9QDORlsyJ_mss4meHZEVwXe5ZdXCETLaekJ3CLg5KQscVnojGfa4d1pI8maFLusPJPYs90liwfQvGI2f-yJT1mMWwrZvIl9dWWHqI4B5mx_keI4G0GmQnMkoqBFkb/s640/cardiomisconception.jpg" width="640" /></a></div> <br /> <br /> <br /> The REAL truth is the cardio weight loss program may actually be doing you more harm than good if not combined with a good strength-training program. It could also be the very reason you have belly fat. Surprised? Over exercising puts stress on your body and this stress releases the hormone, cortisol which is the belly fat culprit. In addition, too long of a cardio burst depletes the stored glycogen in your muscles, forcing your body from anabolic (muscle building) state to a catabolic state (muscle depletion). I could get super technical but it’s not necessary. You simply need an understanding of why strength-training benefits far outweigh a cardio weight loss program.<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8Qe2xFJADn6bbv8ZigyIMRDDXjyncMr8tCfU0-xp1QN2HxT5yY1Awybgx3vSBhe0zlc3VKHhQM79J9rXiLZddoBM7-MAjRKOJ8eM-UVyo50fe_EEgZU1lcH7uc2Q97Qi11_DmxNyVMGjQ/s1600/strongnewskinny.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8Qe2xFJADn6bbv8ZigyIMRDDXjyncMr8tCfU0-xp1QN2HxT5yY1Awybgx3vSBhe0zlc3VKHhQM79J9rXiLZddoBM7-MAjRKOJ8eM-UVyo50fe_EEgZU1lcH7uc2Q97Qi11_DmxNyVMGjQ/s320/strongnewskinny.jpg" width="237" /></a></div> <br /> <strong>FACT</strong><br /> <strong></strong><br /> A steady state cardio session such as running outside or on a treadmill for 45 min to an hour will burn around 400-500 calories during that session. The after-burn, which is the number of calories burned when you stop jogging lasts about an hour and burns a total of only about 30 to 100 additional calories. Weight training will burn calories for up to 36 hours after a weight lifting workout!<br /> <br /> <strong>FACT</strong><br /> <br /> The cardio weight loss program is not the key to burning body fat! Increasing your metabolic rate so that it burns fat AFTER you work out is the ultimate goal and the most efficient way to lose body fat. This can be achieved in a couple of ways…by building lean muscle and by performing high intensity workouts. The second causes your body to use up your stored carb energy source. Once this is depleted your body will burn fat post workout. This is due to EPOC which is that high or excess post-exercise oxygen consumption. Because your energy output was so intense, your body works harder to bring in the extra much needed and depleted oxygen store which causes your metabolism to rise. <br /> <br /> So you are probably wondering if all cardio is bad?<br /> <br /> There is cardio for building muscle and melting fat at the same time.<br /> It is called HIIT, high intensity interval training. It involves alternating low to moderate intensity levels with high intensity levels. HIIT has shown to be more effective, upward of 50%, as a cardio workout to raise metabolism in blasting adipose tissue as well as well as speeding up the metabolism.<br /> <br /> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3Q3p5o2QL0f10GnPFWXigYuPiZJDiOeV0Y1bbxM2zIp7IhsQ-oQoFwYXpTV0dDGpaGE-sOKOsErU22DZ5QEJO8jJqazrTccWPk8sB50voh-NgtWSviWIhyYL2Il04djmsWthe6GlL4WR7/s1600/turbofire2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3Q3p5o2QL0f10GnPFWXigYuPiZJDiOeV0Y1bbxM2zIp7IhsQ-oQoFwYXpTV0dDGpaGE-sOKOsErU22DZ5QEJO8jJqazrTccWPk8sB50voh-NgtWSviWIhyYL2Il04djmsWthe6GlL4WR7/s320/turbofire2.jpg" width="320" /></a> Examples of HIIT would include:<br /> <table align="right"><tbody> <tr><td> </td></tr> </tbody></table> <ul> <li>Sprinting</li> <li><a href="http://www.beachbodycoach.com/esuite/home/alyssaschomaker?bctid=895599538001" target="_blank">Asylum</a></li> <li>Split lunges</li> <li>Jump rope</li> <li>Box jumps</li> <li>Running stairs</li> <li><a href="http://www.beachbodycoach.com/esuite/home/alyssaschomaker?bctid=75304674001" target="_blank">Turbofire</a></li> </ul> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> If you are looking for a great strength training program but, are unfamiliar with what exercises to do or the proper form.

Lose Fat by Summer and Get Bikini Ready

Well here we are in April and in Pittsburgh, it is still in the 30's! BOO!! I am so ready for the warm sunshine, green grass, and flowers blooming!! Everywhere you go there are subtle signs that warm weather is approaching.  The swimsuits hanging in the front of the store, the beach bags, the sunglasses, the appearance of shorts and tank tops. Summer is quickly approaching! 60 days to be exact! Does the fact that baring your legs and arms in just a couple months scare you?? No need to worry my friend! There are options!! I can give you the motivation and support to hit the beach with confidence this year! Are you ready to lose that winter storage and hit the beach running with a newer, leaner, healthier you??<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIaS1zMuq0_HBsp8PCDSzt_uJHzU-Ok34gq_-JyYqGLSoqUfraDTvH_9w4dPzVCzbeq3Rd5yMkBpu-LYUQNPNMA-bYHX3I7DF3ID-E3UkNKXsrHb0G0ugwa2Z7HLeVzOfI1OiOlJblFitS/s1600/b70ef287c941e1e1ab42699e96b1356a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIaS1zMuq0_HBsp8PCDSzt_uJHzU-Ok34gq_-JyYqGLSoqUfraDTvH_9w4dPzVCzbeq3Rd5yMkBpu-LYUQNPNMA-bYHX3I7DF3ID-E3UkNKXsrHb0G0ugwa2Z7HLeVzOfI1OiOlJblFitS/s1600/b70ef287c941e1e1ab42699e96b1356a.jpg" /></a></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbBfJlywJCdrOs2FKHMRNJuCHO4pYogJ1JaqDnmlZNkN4oMbKXcnCTb8TSH20jkozVX40tVFRBFfiATRw20Z7vaZucZ9T3OH-Yqu3PiW-5wc5cTCoC7wYD62tGNcCXo_2wHkKIG3VVB2pk/s1600/bikini.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><br /> </a></div> <br /> This month I have some options available for you!!! <span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>You don't have to do it alone!! <span style="color: black;">We can do it together!</span></b></span></span> I will be starting a new challenge group this month <span style="font-size: medium;"><b>On April 22nd</b></span>!!

You have all heard that Abs are not made in the kitchen right??? I will teach you everything you need to know about clean eating! This is not a diet, but a lifestyle you can live with forever!!  You will also require that you replace 1 meal a day with <a href="http://www.myshakeology.com/alyssaschomaker" target="_blank">Shakeology</a>.  Shakeology is a meal replacement shake that is all natural, helps you lose weight, controls your cravings, keeps you full and gives you energy to get through your workouts and the other responsibilities of the day.  You are only required to drink Shakeology during the 90 days, afterwards you can decide what to do.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkB_uNac0E1rT50CbFNymRumJY7WqahnDcqEojdWNESY0JURYUa9BAzkIsgRV4Ep36VkdxLeOAv4Gyo4CalhSE85BG_S4b44FYEGEAukwJEKJceJ_4VeSidGX4EhBTDt1q74AcaF4JaLov/s1600/exercise+photos+008.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkB_uNac0E1rT50CbFNymRumJY7WqahnDcqEojdWNESY0JURYUa9BAzkIsgRV4Ep36VkdxLeOAv4Gyo4CalhSE85BG_S4b44FYEGEAukwJEKJceJ_4VeSidGX4EhBTDt1q74AcaF4JaLov/s320/exercise+photos+008.JPG" width="320" /></a></div> <br /> <br />   The reason I require Shakeology is because when you are learning to change your eating habits and are adding in exercise this is one meal a day that you know you are eating the right portion size, the right food combination and that you are fueling your body for just plain good nutrition. PLUS it is all NATURAL and has over 40 SUPERFOODs that you cannot buy in the grocery store!!<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> I will teach you how to plan out your meals, how to pair foods together to give you energy and lose weight, and give you a plethora of recipes to help make your meals easy and delicious.  Every recipe I share will be clean and your husband and children will enjoy them too!<br /> <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimJsVRt9wSfPCPDd6nU-x0PBBndWmGrKviprQtMcziVcIwOBHBc2950J3E4o6dngMMSY88YhOltALqvmwLuHtYa1LPk8iMP_n3Ps3ZCCSzWnwOO5nJ7JzN6OiLjY0EeUMXa2HYoIEaUmEz/s1600/PicsArt_1359255681271.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimJsVRt9wSfPCPDd6nU-x0PBBndWmGrKviprQtMcziVcIwOBHBc2950J3E4o6dngMMSY88YhOltALqvmwLuHtYa1LPk8iMP_n3Ps3ZCCSzWnwOO5nJ7JzN6OiLjY0EeUMXa2HYoIEaUmEz/s320/PicsArt_1359255681271.jpg" width="320" /></a></div> <br /> <br /> As part of the Challenge Group you will be enrolled into my <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/179197052231258/" target="_blank">closed online support group</a>.  In this group we will work on improving your physical and mental health!
