Eliminating Belly Fat for a Great Set of
Abs
By: Scott H. Mendelson and Eric Serrano MD
Shutting Off Fat Storage Receptors for Single Digit Body Fat %
Dr. Serrano so
much of the information about nutrition is geared towards people with high
body fat levels. I am trying to
go from 16% to 8%, how do you structure a plan for someone who is already
pretty lean with body fat centralized in the mid section?
You are correct different tactics must be used for
someone trying to break into the single digits, similar principles apply for
anyone trying to lose body fat, but we have protocols perfect for what you
are aiming to do. As you get
leaner both metabolic and hormonal conditions change, at first progress
comes easy this is why you see obese people shed weight so quickly.
We have not changed much genetically for 10,000 years and back then
starvation was more prevalent. Your
body responds to a consistent period of low food intake by jacking up
cortisol and other fat storage hormones while lowering metabolism to keep
fat as long as possible- preserving survival.
This fat storing hormonal
cascade activates fat storage receptors which are focused in the mid section
for men and legs for women. You
can do everything “right” but if the fat storage receptors are activated
by storage hormones- you will not succeed.
Other factors including poor sleep, bad nutrition
choices, combined with elevated stress levels negatively impact insulin
sensitivity resulting in higher circulating levels of this powerful fat
storage hormone. The correct plan can shut off these receptors- two powerful tools are Alpha
Omega and Fat
Reduce. Alpha Omega
forces the fat cells to mobilize more stored fat as fuel instead of acting
as vacuum cleaners for available material.
The proprietary essential fatty acid matrix within the Alpha Omega
along with proper diet and exercise can prevent highly problematic insulin
surges.
Do you ever feel despite your hard work that the fat is not burning off fast enough? You may be doing everything you believe to be right and working very hard, but actually supporting conditions that increase body fat accumulation. High stress levels arising from a lack of progress and related frustrations increases the depth of the problem. We get the tough cases and have built many protocols to tackle these problems, if you are not satisfied with your results it is time for a change in strategy- the Rapid Abs Nutrition Plan.
Deactivating Fat Storage Receptors
I became interested in hormones many years ago as they
govern all body comp and performance progress.
Following the evaluation of tens of thousands of blood test results I
was able to determine the optimal ratios of hormones to support maximum fat
burning, and that was the easy part. Developing
a formula to create these optimal hormonal changes was the big challenge.
Along with proper nutrition, exercise and life style management Fat
Reduce has consistently improved the fat loss fortunes of trainees wanting
to get to single digit body fat with a great set of abs.
We conducted a 30 day trial a few years ago which demonstrated an
average increase of over 400 calories in daily expenditure and follow up
blood work revealed great improvements.
Most importantly the participants lost a tremendous amount of body
fat and some of these trial participants had been struggling for years.
Fat Reduce PM was designed to lower stress levels in
the evening to support an easy transition into a deep level of sleep and to
accelerate fat burning. Do not underestimate the importance of restful sleep
which is vital for hormonal recuperation.
Clients tell us within a week they wake up feeling well rested with
greatly improved daily energy.
Stoking The Metabolic Fire
Macronutrient Cycling Fat loss plans make use of
several cutting edge techniques and is the perfect solution for anyone
trying to get lean- FAST. A recent trial resulted in an average loss of 10lbs of body fat and 5
lbs increase in muscle over 30 days!
The positive impact of macronutrient cycling is well documented from
prior articles and trials. Manipulating
food choices to force the body into burning more stored fat as fuel was
established early on; however we were very surprised to see big increases in
new muscle mass from the trial participants.
We learned that manipulating the macronutrient profiles enables the
body to use protein more efficiently as building blocks for new muscle while
shifting to stored fat as a primary fuel source. Adding Metabolic Fire
Days to the mix stepped up progress by another 10% when done once every 14
days. This single relatively
low calorie day enables the body to greatly accelerate fat burning without
triggering a negative hormonal response.
A high dosage of Amino Loading with 100%
MR and Muscle Synthesis on this day protects muscle while enhancing fat
burning through other pathways. Amino Loading around workouts and through
the day accelerates fat burning by consistently sending message to the brain
that large amounts of food have been consumed; forcing metabolic rate to
accelerate through the worth with nothing to burn except stored fat.
Busting Fat Burning Plateaus for a Great
Physique
I
know gaining muscle while losing fat is very difficult for fundamental
reasons, but what nutrition plan gives me the best chance to gain some
muscle while maximizing fat loss? Jerry
New Orleans
The typical long term low nutrient intake plan making
use of high protein with low carb and fat levels is a bad strategy if you
are looking to get very lean- FAST. I
am a metabolic janitor having to fix messes created by clients not due to
bad intentions, but a lack of information.
The Fat Buster plan is perfect
for busting plateaus and promoting rapid fat loss progress by making use of
enzymatic, hormonal and metabolic principles that the public does not
understand. Humans are
creatures of habit and this one of our greatest downfalls as we can easily
make the fat burning mechanisms very stale brining progress to a frustrating
halt.
Enzymes Hold the Keys to the Fat Burning
Treasure Chest
A little known factor of fat loss and Muscle growth is
enzymatic activity, which if turned in your favor will accelerate progress
but if availability is low you are headed nowhere fast. Enzymatic activity
is increased according to food consumption, for example eat a high amount of
carbs and enzymes will be available to burn the carbs, the same holds true
for proteins and dietary fats. Rapid
fat loss requires the body to burn stored fat as fuel and an elevated intake
of good dietary fat consumption will increase the enzymes needed to get the
job done. However combine the wrong carb sources and amounts and the
fat burning enzymes will not reach peak levels.
Macronutrient Cycling for Rapid Fat Loss
and Muscle Growth
By the time this issue hits the stands many people will
have arrived at a major plateau if they started an effort around Jan 1. The
amounts of protein, dietary fat, and carbohydrates must be manipulated in a
strategic manner to avoid metabolic staleness.
A consistent intake of high
protein levels without spiking dietary fat and carb intake will result in
the body using muscle as a fuel source since protein is abundant from daily
food intake. Why?
The enzymes needed to use protein as a fuel source will be very
active due to the high protein intake.
We do not want to make protein the bad guy, but try lowering intake
from 1.5g per lean pound of body weight to 1g a couple days per week while
spiking carb or dietary fat levels to prevent metabolic staleness.
Physique Breakfast of Champions
Yes lowering protein intake to moderate levels on
certain days will reduce the availability of certain building blocks,
however these can be efficiently replaced by Amino Loading with 100% MR and
Muscle Synthesis around workouts and between meals.
Designed following many years of research including muscle biopsies
to determine the exact ratios needed to support rapid muscle growth and
repair. Remember quality
ingredient intake is only beneficial when they can be properly utilized
making the proprietary ratios absolutely crucial to your success. This combo
does not increase protein burning enzymes; allowing fat burning enzymes to
increase rapidly thus torching unwanted body fat- FAST.
Use the MR and Muscle Synthesis around training as well as between
meals to force the body into using more stored fat as fuel, this also has a
big impact on metabolism by making the brain understand that an abundance of
food has been consumed, as a result metabolic rate is raised through the
roof! A
few days per week use a high dosage of 100% MR and Muscle Synthesis to
replace your breakfast and watch your body fat disappear for good!
Kick out the Fat!
Fat cells are a warehouse for stored fat and are
hormonally active, producing many types of hormones necessary for general
health and to communicate between cells.
Alpha Omega provides the vital raw materials and tools for optimal
metabolism and synthesis. Optimizing
fat cell function will help the body burn stored rapidly.
Providing the ideal materials to cells supports a beneficial level of
cellular fluidity which improves fat burning communications between cells
and the nervous system. Improved
blood flow enables more
nutrients and hormones to be delivered to desirable locations.
Macronutrient
Cycling Fat Loss Plan Your Key to Permanent Fat Loss!
We are keeping it very simple during the week and on the weekend I change several factors to increase fat burning enzymes, avoid food allergies, and optimize the hormonal environment for fat burning. The macronutrient cycling prevents metabolic staleness and forces the body to use more stored fat as fuel. Let me know about any questions.
Just like
training the nutrition plan muscle also change in a strategic manner to
avoid metabolic staleness. Shifting
the macronutrient percentages, especially dietary fat loading forces the
body to use more stored fat as fuel. The
increased utilization of dietary and stored fat as an energy source enables
proteins and other raw materials to be allocated to muscle growth and
repair.
