Building Muscle Tips - How To Strip That Fat
By Dave Vower


What good is a muscular body if you can't see it under layers of fat?

Next time you go to the mall or shopping, take a look at the people around you. Look at their physiques, the people at your work, the people next to you on the bus/train, the people at the drug store and the local fast food joint. What is the average body type these days? Do people look like Rambo? or do they look like the fatties on Wall-E? Well, unless you train hard like Rambo, or physical exercise is part of your communities lifestyle, the standard then you'll see is to be overweight.

So what do we do it? Are you one of them? I was, but I found out one of the biggest secrets of the bodybuilding community. How to strip the fat quickly and easily, with no hour long cardio sessions!

Building Muscle Tips - Strip That Fat From Your Body and Reveal Your Muscles Today!

Here's the trick:

Strip The Fat Step 1. LIft Weights Don't worry, you wont become muscle bound overnight. It takes years of bodybuilding to get big like those guys. The cool thing is though, that muscles burn energy faster than any other cells in your body. So lift weights, and your body will burn more fat. Simple. Workout every couple of days and you'll notice the difference.

Strip That Fat Step 2. Aerobic exercise is a waste of time. Yep, you heard me if you want to burn fat fast, DON'T do it. You've got to be crazy right? Everyone says it's the best way so it must be true. Nope. Well, it does work, but it's not the best way. And it's hard work! If there's an easier way, wouldn't that be best? (haha, I'm such a lazy coach!)

What do you do instead? Well, you know how muscle burns more energy than fat right? Well, you can also put your body into a fat burning mode by doing Short and intense cardio exercises. This is similar to say going for a jog, or riding a bike for an hour, except you take all that effort, and put it into 15 minutes! This is commonly called interval training or High Intensity Training.

Here's an example:

HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training), or Interval Training is a training session divided into 2 parts. One intense, and the other less intense.

Here's an example of an interval training session:

# Stretch

# 5 min warmup

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 5 min cooldown

# Stretches

The beautiful thing about this kind of training is that you'll speed up your metabolism so much that you'll be burning calories for days! And it only takes 15 minutes! It's seriously the BEST way to strip that fat from your body with the least amount of work.

If you're already training 3 days a week, do this cardio training on your OFF days only. The reason why is because your body simply does not know how to burn fat and build muscle at the same time. Alternate between the 2 so you can get the best of both worlds. And remember, take a day off. Nothing worse than burn out when you're doing so well.

Is that it? Nope one last thing:

Building Muscle Tips - Step 3. Eat Your Vegetables!

I'm not going to get into the whole calorie argument and talk about how confusing it is to have to read all the food labels. Let's just be serious for a second. If you want to get the fat from your body it's not going to happen eating burgers and fries. You know it. So what do you eat? Well, your best option is to eat food that's got plenty of nutritional value and helps keep your body and metabolism moving. What's the best food to do that? Fruit and vegetables.

Yeah, it's a bummer eh. You've been hearing it since you were a kid. "Eat Your Vegetables!" Turns out your parents were right eh. Well, I'm not about to tell em so don't worry!

Honestly though, eat your vegies, and eat them raw if you can. Keep your protein intake high so your body can repair itself. Snack on RAW nuts (not the salty ones!) and protein snacks / shakes. And get your energy mostly from fruits and vegetables. You'll find that you need to work a little harder to eat them but stick with it, the results will be worth it.

As you change your diet, and work out with heavier weights, your body will change. So...

1. Do a weights workout

2. Do Interval Training to burn fat

3. Eat Plenty of Fresh Fruit and Vegetables

You'll be leaner in no time.
