by Mike Roussell PhD(c) Do you want to lose belly fat? If so then it is important to know two things. 1. Not all belly fat is created equally. 2. As a woman when you get older you will naturally get more belly fat then a man does (I know, it is unfair). First let’s [...]
by Mike Roussell PhD(c) One of the best ways to ensure you burn maximum fat is to get it done first thing in the morning. A common fat loss tip people often give out is just this – exercise in the morning to burn more fat. Does exercising in the morning burn more calories? Unfortunately [...]
by Mike Roussell PhD(c) What is stopping your from reaching your fat loss goals? Maybe you are on track. If so then you can skip this article and go read something else… however… if your body isn’t where you want it to be then keep reading. It is not uncommon that I talk with someone [...]
Anyone who has tried to get rid of fat has been there. In the beginning, the nutrition and exercise plan seems to be working, but then all the fat loss comes to a screeching halt. We all have those problem areas (for me it is my stomach and love handles), where the fat just won’t [...]
By Mike Roussell Phd(c) This past weekend I got to catch up with a friend (Jack) whom I hadn’t seen in several months. Like most people Jack hadn’t really changed in appearance since the last time we saw each other (around the 1st of the year). Jack and I talked for a while about stuff [...]
It is no secret that the majority of people look to exercise to burn fat (and it is an excellence choice when combined with sensible eating habits).

I’m just going to get right into this and show you why reduced calorie diets actually make you fatter. I’m going to keep it simple and avoid complex, scientific explanations. After all, why make the phenomena of getting fatter after a reduced calorie diet complicated when common sense is enough to understand why this happens. [...]
By Alwyn Cosgrove What’s the rate limiting step (i.e. what is the one thing that is slowing the whole system down)? How can we get around it and speed up the entire weight loss process? It always bothered me that we’re told – a good weight loss diet could results in 2lbs of fat loss [...]
When most men and women think about losing fat they either think about going on a restricted calorie diet or performing a cardio focused workout like running or biking. Once looking in the mirror and seeing the belly fat hanging over their belts, they say things like, “I need to go on a diet” or [...]
A few years ago I wrote my Athletic Body Workout. You see, I know that most men want to look like a strong, lean athlete… NOT a bodybuilder. And I figure the only reason these guys were still doing workouts based on bodybuilding was they didn’t know how to do an athletic workout. I mean, [...]
In my opinion, there is no better choice than bodyweight calisthenics for an effective at home workout.
