CHEAT YOUR WAY THIN
Many of you know that one of the people I have great respect for in the weight loss and fitness industry is Joel Marion. He is a past champion of a wildly popular body transformation contest called Body-for-Life and since the day he won he has been researching and perfecting the best ways to get fit fast.
I have gotten to know Joel over the past year and I have a bit of insider information that he is releasing a holiday version of his great program Cheat Your Way Thin. I don’t have the details yet but I will very soon and I will get them to you ASAP.
In the meantime, here is an article I wrote about how Joel helps people Cheat their way to weight loss, I thought you might enjoy it!
This has to be some gimmick right? Well, let’s look at some facts and you can decide for yourself.
Let me ask you…
Have you ever gone on a diet only to quit a few weeks later because you weren’t seeing the results you hoped for?
Have you ever given up all your favorite foods: pizza, ice cream, Reese’s peanut butter cups in order to drop a few pounds yet found that the results didn’t show up on the scale?
What is the deal with dieting? It seems logical doesn’t it? If you reduce the amount of calories you are eating during the day then your body should start using up your excess body fat for energy and you should see the results on the bathroom scale. That is the way we were all taught it is supposed to work.
There is a problem.
The problem is that your body looks at your reduction in calories as a potential threat, that threat being starvation. It has hormones, one in particular called leptin, that sends the brain a red flag when calorie consumption drops telling it to put the brakes on your metabolism and preserve the body’s stored energy (i.e. FAT).
So when you reduce your calories your metabolism slows and your body holds on to body fat for dear life. This was fine when we were cavemen and women and we didn’t know when our next meal would come but this is not so great when your objective is to lose weight.
The answer? Cheat your way thin!
Yes, you read that correctly. As it turns out you can outsmart your body’s hormonal response to lower calories by reassuring it that all is well and that you have plenty of food available. And the wonderful way you do this is to add strategic “Cheat Days” once a week. This means that you follow a diet from Sunday till Friday and Then on Saturday when you wake up you eat whatever you want: pancakes for breakfast, fast food for lunch, pizza for dinner.
Can this work?
Absolutely, but you do have to eat right the other days of the week (and no it is not 6 days of torture). But think about it, if you reduce your calories on a diet and your body thinks you are starving so it shuts your metabolism down to save fat what would convince your body that all is well and speed up your fat burning metabolism again? MORE FOOD! After your cheat day your body says, “Wow, there is not starvation.” And it cranks up your fat burning again.
Is there proof it works?
There is scientific proof that this works but what you want to know is, does it work in real life. I want you to see some incredible before and after pictures of people who have followed the Cheat Your Way Thin program, they will inspire you! Follow the link below to see the photographic proof.
