A Review of Burn The Fat Feed The Muscle

Burn the fat feed the muscle

Tom Venuto’s program Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle has been on the market for some time and I want to share my experience with this weight loss program.

Venuto has been bodybuilding for over 20 years and competing for more than 15 years. He’s been involved in the fitness industry as a personal trainer, health club manager, motivation coach and freelance writer for almost 20 years. If you have seen pictures of him, you will be impressed with his physique – he’s ripped! The techniques he uses are obviously successful.

His credentials are also impressive:

He’s been in IRONMAN, Australian IRONMAN, Olympian’s News (in Italian), Muscular Development, Natural Bodybuilding & Fitness, Exercise for Men and Men’s Exercise. He’s written over 190 articles on bodybuilding, fat loss and fitness.

He is a certified strength and conditioning specialist and a certified personal trainer. He’s a member of the International Society for Sports Nutrition (ISSN), the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and the National Strength And Conditioning Association (NSCA). He’s a competitive bodybuilder and has won 3 state and 3 regional championships and even gone as far as 2nd place in the Mr. Natural USA and 2nd in the Mr. Natural North America contests. So it’s pretty safe to say Tom is an expert in his field.

But can he translate that expertise into a useful fat loss and muscle building program for the average person looking for results?

My review

Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle is an easy to read, highly informative and detailed formula for fat loss and muscle building. This is a large book and is definitely not one you can download and read in an evening. Especially considering the bonus files included with the price in addition to the main book. The amount of information is almost overwhelming, but don’t let that discourage you. It is well written and worth reading.

You should be warned though, that Tom Venuto’s prescription for a better, healthier body is not sugar coated. He’s very up-front about the amount of effort it will take to achieve your goals. He doesn’t boast of miracle weight loss with little effort. Rather, he sets out a plan that will teach you your body type and allows you to tailor your own program to suit your unique needs.

Sounds complicated, but if you are serious about weight loss, Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle will seriously help you. All you need to do is read it and implement the steps.

Among the topics covered Tom will show you…

  • How to stay strongly motivated to stick with the program.
  • How to lose fat without supplements or drugs
  • How to lose fat without starving or feeling deprived.
  • How to lose fat without the yo-yo effect and break through plateaus.

 I don’t believe you will find a more complete guide to transforming your physique than this book.

My Ranking: 9.0/10

Conclusion:

Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle and the bonus ebooks Tom includes with the purchase, are well worth the $39.95 price tag, probably much more than that… I highly recommend this publication.

Tom will also offer you fantastic customer service, a great experience, and of course his product is backed by a fully honored, satisfaction or your money back guarantee. That way, if in the unlikely event this product is not for you, you can return it for a refund.

weightlossIf you are really worried about being obese and you are ready to do something about it, then you are going to have to take a positive approach. This is why it is important to follow well-structured and well-designed weight loss tips. While this may be time consuming, some people truly do need these weight loss tips in order for them to achieve their goals. Of course, it is also important to make sure that these weight loss tips are safe and encouraged by your family and doctor.

Weight Loss Tips #1: Think Positive, Be Positive, Act Positive

Having a positive view about yourself will make it much easier for you to achieve your desired goal. This is because negative thoughts only block your chances of success. Furthermore, your health is partially psychological in nature, especially when it comes to your self-esteem and self-confidence. Therefore, make sure that you think positive so that you are able to achieve your goal.

Weight Loss Tips #2: Eat Light And Healthy

Some of the other ideal weight loss tips recommend that your diet consist of low fat, complex carbohydrates and a high amount of both vitamins and minerals. While these things may not always taste great, it is important to remember that there is no shortcut to success. Of course, if you follow the right weight loss tips things can be a little bit easier here at least. This is because gradually making a low fat diet an integral part of your life is ideal at all stages of your life. Such a diet should include whole grain cereals, pasta, fresh fruits, breads, green vegetables, beans and nuts. You should avoid eating junk food and fried foods.  It is also important that you drink plenty of water all through your day as well. Furthermore, you should try to begin your day with a heavy, but fat free, meal such as cornbread with Taramasalata. This will help you to feel a lot less hungry throughout the day.

Conclusion

There are a lot of options available in the market that focus on weight loss ideas. However, the best weight loss tips always take into consideration a smart selection of food. This is why when you watch someone who is trying to lose weight not have any effective outcomes happening, you can rest assured that it is because the person’s calorie intake is higher than what they are burning.

Fitness videogames might be able to keep players in shape–but not if they don’t play them.

Nintendo’s exercise game Wii Fit is still flying off retail shelves eight months after its U.S. release last May. The all-in-one instructional tool, weight tracker and fitness coach advertises itself as a painless way for the whole family to get healthy thanks to the game’s “balance board,” which measures players’ movement. Offering a selection of activities–from running to push-ups to yoga – Wii Fit is now in almost 1.5 million homes across the country. But is anyone actually using it?

wiifitNot really, says Brian Crecente, managing editor of the popular gaming blog Kotaku. Despite optimistic predictions that Nintendo had unleashed a new era of videogames, Crecente calls Wii Fit little more than an exercise fad that’s bound to come and go like any other. “I don’t know a single person who has bought the game who uses it routinely after a month,” he claims, stressing that getting results from the game requires dedication and real physical exertion. “What Nintendo did is they tapped into that desire people have to be healthier. Everyone wants to work out, but nobody really wants to put the effort into it.”

One of the things that’s made Wii Fit so popular is the excitement Nintendo has stirred up with people who don’t normally play. For Crecente, that excitement–and the let down that often comes with it–hit home. “My mom and step dad both tried Wii Fit before it came out,” he says, “and like every other middle-aged American, they loved it.” In fact, they loved it so much they went out and bought a Wii of their own. Months later, though, when Crecente stopped by for a visit, he didn’t need to ask if they’d set foot on their balance board. Their Wii had never even been set up. So much for physical fitness.

Don’t blame Nintendo for people’s sloth, observers say. The company has marketed its new cash cow brilliantly, and it’s not responsible for whether consumers play the game or not. Nintendo declined to comment for this article, but Wii Fit creator Shigeru Miyamoto has previously gone on record and said that the game is less about people losing weight and more about broadening the videogame market. Still, it seems a little disingenuous for Nintendo to heavily market a fitness tool that’s sitting in more than a million American living rooms collecting dust.

wii-fitThat’s not to say Wii Fit doesn’t work–if you play it. Brian Ashcraft, another Kotaku editor, tried the game out faithfully for a month when it was first released in order to review it. The results: He enjoyed the yoga, and started to feel more in shape. But the novelty wore off, and Ashcraft admits he hasn’t picked up the game in a long, long time.

Not everyone, however, is prepared to give up on Wii Fit. Instead of relying on anecdotal evidence, Scott Owens, a professor of exercise science at the University of Mississippi, has started a six-month study to uncover whether placing Wii Fit in a home will actually improve a family’s physical fitness. By donating the game to local participants for three months at a time, then taking it away for another three months, Owens will be able to observe how the game impacts cardiovascular fitness, flexibility and balance. How often families use Wii Fit will be up to them.

Of course, the overall goal of Owens’ study isn’t to question Wii Fit’s effectiveness–it’s to provide more insight into the American obesity epidemic. Right now, Owens speculates that playing traditional videogames might be a contributing factor because it’s a sedentary activity. Results of his study are expected to come out this June.

In the meantime, gamers like Crecente remain skeptical about the Wii Fit hype, predicting that this, too, will pass into fitness fad history. When a neighbor mentioned heading out to buy a Wii Fit recently, Crecente’s advice was simple: Don’t do it. “I have to keep reminding people,” he sighs, “even though it’s a videogame, it’s still exercise. It might be fun a little bit, but it’s work.”
