Vegetarian Hard-Body Answers: Where’s the Beef?

================================================================

One of the biggest areas of confusion when it comes to muscle toning (or building) and getting lean (for males or females) is the topic of dietary protein intake.

Quite often this discussion leads into the subject of “vegetarian” nutritional habits – and whether or not they are conducive to muscular enhancement and improving body composition…

Confrontation on the Playground?

Last week I felt like doing an outdoor workout – so off to our local playground I went, for a sweat-breaking, bodyweight training session (I do this about 2 times per week). I got right into a 25 minute chest/back/core workout.

At the end as I was stretching out and toweling off – one of the dads came over to ask about my workouts, what else I do, etc…. His wife also stepped over to chat, as well.

Then he asked… “With your kind of physique – you must eat a lot of protein, like red meat and chicken, right?”

I said, “Actually, most people would consider me a vegetarian. I don’t eat any red meat and I don’t remember the last time I ate chicken.”

He asked, “Well, don’t you need those meats to build and maintain muscle?”

I said, “No, but unfortunately – that’s what most people have been led to believe.”

His wife then turned to him and said “Ha! See, I told you!” (I had to chuckle at that point)

He asked “What foods do you eat to get enough protein in your diet?”

I rattled off a simple list:

“Various nuts, different types of beans, nut butters, peas… I also eat eggs on occasion, and fish – maybe once or twice a week. And then there’s the protein that comes from the grains I eat, and the organic skim milk I add to my espresso…”

He asked “And you get all the protein you need from those?”

I replied “Yes, see – even if we workout consistently – we don’t need as much protein as people generally believe… So, once that notion is clarified – It’s so much easier to embrace the concept and practice of moving toward a vegetarian approach to your nutrition…”

Then he started to get it… And his cool wife chimed in again.. “Thank you SO much for helping him understand this. We’ve gone back and forth on this for years…”

They then asked what a typical day of eating looks like for me – and I told them…

7am – mocha-espresso with 2 ounces organic skim milk

10:30am – natural peanut butter, a little regular butter, ground flax seeds, ground cinnamon on a piece of oat/nut bread – PLUS a fruit – PLUS a double strength green tea

1:30pm – another mocha-espresso with 2 ounces organic skim milk

2pm – chick peas and baby grape tomatoes with balsamic vinegar and olive oil, sea salt and black pepper – PLUS a medium organic banana

4pm – granola cereal with almond milk – PLUS a fruit – PLUS a double strength jasmine green tea

7:30pm – Peas and cheese on multi-grain wrap seasoned and quick-cooked in pan to melt cheese and brown the wrap – PLUS my famous Sinful Salad; chopped romaine lettuce, chopped apple and sliced strawberries – WITH my ‘secret’ home-made dressing

10pm – 2 ounces of chocolate – PLUS double strength red tea – PLUS fruit (cherries, blueberries, orange, etc… depends what’s in season – and what’s in the house :-)

That’s just a one-day example. I have MANY variations of that. I never get bored and I NEVER feel hungry.

Stay tuned as I’ll surely be sharing some more of these “examples” in the future. And if getting into the “fitness vegetarian” thing is something of real interest to you – then you’ll want to check out one the top resources on the subject from vegetarian expert and author, K.

A Good Form of Trans-Fat Gets You Leaner and Healthier?

September 28th, 2009


I just traded articles with my good friend, trusted colleague and Nutrition Specialist Mike Geary.

I was going to wait a few days to Post this – but this one is so helpful – I couldn’t hold off. So, here it is…

It’s an article that sheds some amazing light on the issue of nutritional trans-fats – and how they affect your body fat.

======================================================

A Type of Trans Fat that Makes You Leaner and Healthier?

by Mike Geary
– Certified Personal Trainer, Certified Nutrition Specialist & co-Author – ‘The Fat Burning Kitchen’

We all know that trans fats are horrible for your health right? But what if I told you that there is a specific type of trans fat that’s natural (not man-made) and actually helps you to lose fat faster and build lean muscle?

Well, check out the excerpt from my new program that I co-authored called “The Fat Burning Kitchen” >> http://tinyurl.com/FatLossKitchen below:

“…Not many people know this fact, but CLA is actually a natural form of trans fat, but it is FAR different than the artificial trans fats from hydrogenated oils that are so deadly and that you hear all of the negative information about. CLA is actually one of the only healthy trans fats in existence.

CLA is a natural form of healthy trans fat that occurs in the fat on the meat, and in the dairy from ruminant animals such as cattle, bison, deer, goats, sheep, kangaroo, etc. CLA in natural form has been shown to help in burning off abdominal fat and also maintaining or even building lean muscle.

Warning: do NOT use CLA supplements as they contain an artificially created form of CLA that is a different CLA isomer compared to the natural CLA isomer that’s found in meats and dairy from ruminant animals. The CLA isomer found in CLA supplements can have negative effects in the body and is more similar to an artificial trans fat. The only form of CLA is that going to benefit your health and help you to reduce body fat is the natural CLA isomers from grass-fed beef, bison, venison, etc or from grass-fed raw milk or cheeses.

Also, grass-fed meats and dairy contain 3-5x the CLA of grain fed meats, so avoid your typical grain-fed grocery store meats.

So that is the reason why I focused more on red meats such as grass-fed beef and bison during this 23-day cutting cycle instead of chicken, turkey, or fish — because the extra CLA can really help in accelerating fat loss and preserving lean muscle…”

There you have it… there actually IS such a thing as a healthy trans fat… bet you didn’t know that!

This was an excerpt from my brand new program I just co-authored with an extremely knowledgeable nutrition expert named Catherine Ebeling.

The program is called “The Fat Burning Kitchen”.

Because this is our launch week… you can grab the program for half price this week only. The price will double in a few days at the end of the week.

Also, I wanted to really knock your socks off with this program, so if you grab a copy this week, I even decided to throw in a special bonus section that gives you every single nitty gritty detail of how I just went from 10.2% bodyfat down to 6.9% bodyfat in only 23 days while I prepped for a photo shoot recently.

This is advanced stuff for when you might have an event such as a wedding or a beach vacation coming up and you need to knock off some significant bodyfat in only 3-4 weeks time frame. There’s nothing unhealthy here… but these techniques are definitely “amped up” from the norm.

When I say nitty gritty details… I’m talking everything, including specific spices, teas, nutrients, exactly what I ate, carb/protein/fat ratios and how I manipulated timing of nutrients to accelerate fat loss.

Seriously, we did the body comp tests and I went from 10.2% BF to 6.9% BF in only 23 days. I’ll be sharing the pics on my blog in a week or 2, when I get the finals back from the photographer.

You’ll find out all of those details of how I did this in the bonus chapter if you grab a copy this week.

Fitness Foods # 3: Eight “B” Foods to Include In Your Weekly Meals Plans

April 10th, 2009

——————————————————————————–

Fitness Foods # 3: Eight “B” Foods to Include In Your Weekly Meals Plans

As always – any food I suggest – is preferably of organic origin. And your meats are ideally grass fed, free range, etc…

1 – Banana

This is one of my all time favorites – and I eat one every day. Bananas are a great source of magnesium (good for your bones and heart health) – and they are loaded with potassium (about 400 milligrams in a medium one). This is good since we are supposed to get close to 5,000 milligrams of potassium per day. Remember, potassium helps regulate blood pressure, fights bone loss and reduces your risk of kidney stones.

2 – Brown Rice

The difference between white rice and brown rice is not the color. White rice is brown rice AFTER it has been processed and devalued. Unlike white rice, brown rice is a true whole grain – because it still has the bran and germ of the natural grain. So you get the true ‘whole grain’ benefits – and about 10 times as much body-benefiting potassium and phosphorus.

3 – Bran

Either as cold cereal or hot cereal – bran kicks butt (I love oat bran cooked in water for breakfast [11:30am] with a medium banana, and 2 tablespoons of ground flax seed).

What do you get? A very nice dose of fiber, magnesium – and some VERY good quality carbohydrates.

4 – Brussel(s) Sprouts

Just 4 of these natural powerhouses gives you about 240 micrograms of vitamin K – which is twice the measly amount the average person gets in a full day. And trust me – you NEED vitamin K.

5 – Beef (Eye of Round is good)

Red meat is not evil – unless you are eating half a pound every day…

A 3 ounce serving of high quality beef gives you a body toning and strengthening dose of protein – at only 160 calories.

What else do you get from ‘the beef’? Zinc and vitamin B6 – two more essential elements you need to function optimally

6 – Broccoli

Yes – its STILL good for you… – As one of the top ‘dark green vegetables’ – you want to find a way to get this on your dinner table a few times a week if you are interested in reducing your chances of getting cancer – just to name a few…

7 – Blueberries

..VERY high in antioxidants …boost your brain function …helps lower cholesterol …loaded with vitamin K …may help prevent osteoporosis …prevents hardening of the arteries …loaded with fiber …should I keep going?

8 – Barley

Pearl barley has the outer husk removed – so DON’T eat it. You want WHOLE GRAIN barley – which still has the valuable husk. We all know the benefits of true whole grains – so no need for me to rehash here. You can also try bulgar or buckwheat groats (kasha) – as they are also nutrient packed whole grains.

Please share this post with anyone else you know – who will benefit from it.

Fat Loss Fact: Long-term Diet Study Shows Caloric Balance Key Factor In Weight Loss

March 17th, 2009

_______________________________________________________

Fat Loss Fact: Long-term Diet Study Shows Caloric Balance Key Factor In Weight Loss

-
A 2-year study of 811 overweight adults assigned to one of four diets has found that the proportions of macronutrients did not affect how much weight they lost. The targeted percentages of calories derived from fat, protein, and carbohydrates in the four diets were 20/15/65, 20/25/55, 40/15/45, and 40/25/35, respectively. The diets consisted of similar foods and met guidelines for cardiovascular health. The participants were offered group and individual instructional sessions.

Among the 80% of participants who completed the trial, the average weight loss was 4 kg (about 9 pounds) and the results were similar in those who were assigned to a diet with 20% or 40% fat; 15% or 25% protein; and 65% or 35% carbohydrates. Satiety, hunger, satisfaction with the diet, and attendance at group sessions were similar for all diets. The diets also improved lipid-related risk factors and fasting insulin levels. The authors concluded:

**Reduced-calorie diets will result in clinically meaningful weight loss regardless of which macronutrients they emphasize.

**A range of fat, protein, and carbohydrate compositions can have beneficial effects on risk factors for cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

**Such diets can be tailored to individual patients based on personal and cultural preferences and may therefore have the best chance for long-term success.

Abs Exercise Machines: Big Problem With Ab Machines and Your Abs

January 20th, 2009

I hope you are being faithful to me, and your ‘AtlaStyle’ exercise sessions…

I have to tell you what happened today…

We have a typical fitness center in our community. A full circuit of machines with weights stacks, some benches with dumbbells, a line of cardio equip., and some more free weights – NOT how ‘Joey Atlas’ would have advised them to put the place together… anyhow…

While my creation, The Bodyweight & Band Family Home Gym, is being built for our house – I’ve been using our community’s fitness center for some of my workouts (I get lots of stares, glares and questions – when everyone see me doing all this bodyweight stuff and not lifting an ounce of weight or touching a machine with a weight stack on it.)

There is a tiny mat/stretching area – and I was going through one of my 20 minute Abs/Core routines from my dvds: http://www.AbsofStoneCoreofSteel.com – and a woman was about 6 feet away from me, using this massive ‘abcrunch’, body-folding unit…

When I stopped for second – she asks “What do all of those exercises do?”

I reply – “They all target your abs and core in a balanced and safe way – while bringing results better than any machine.”

She says, “So those moves are better than this thing I’m using?”

I say, “Exactly.”

She says, “I find that hard to believe. Because this machine is made for the abs and stomach area.”

I reply, “Please dont take offense to this, but how long have you been using that machine?”

She says, “3 or 4 times a week for the last 5 months.”

I say, “Has your midriff changed at all?”

She says, “It’s stronger, but it still looks he same.”

I say, “So are you going to keep doing it – or look for something that will bring you the changes you are looking for?”

I also went on to explain why machines like this simply cannot stimulate and properly engage the hundreds of muscles in the female abdominal, core and lower back region – and that the unnatural, repetitive motion can often leads to injuries and setbacks.

She smiles and says – “OK – can you teach me your routine?”

I say, “Yes – and then some… Just go to: http://www.AbsofStoneCoreofSteel.com you can get my world famous abs and core program right from the site. I’ll be teaching you via the DVDs – and then you can come in here and tell others how to do things right – and get results.”

She was totally excited – she couldn’t even wait – she dashed out of the fitness center and said she was going to order her dvds asap.

Encounters like this are very fun – and I always welcome them.

It’s much easier when I go somewhere as an ‘unknown’ and nobody knows my background – but its also fun to feel like a celebrity and have clients and subscribers recognize me in public and politely approach me and say, “Hey, aren’t you Joey Atlas? OMG, I have your programs – and your stuff is amazing – It’s so cool to meet you in the flesh!”

My kids get a kick out of that stuff when they are with me.

Remember …

“Don’t be like everybody else… Be YOU… be FIT… be SEXY!”

Joey Atlas

Stevia a Major Fitness Breakthrough – FDA Opens Gates for Stevia

December 23rd, 2008

- by Joey Atlas
________________________________________________________________

Stevia: The No-Cal Sweetener from Nature Has Been a Long Time Coming

-

If you’ve been a longtime follower of my teachings – you already know that I’ve been using the no calorie, all natural sweetener, stevia, since I was about 18 years old (that’s since 1998).

I’ve posted many articles about stevia, simple recipes with stevia as an ingredient – and I’ve even highlighted this amazing plant extract in my book, Fatness to Fitness.

All along – I’ve been hinting at the tremendous potential of this healthy herb – known around the word as stevia (rebaudioside A).

Well – one of the biggest obstacles has been recently pushed aside – by the hand of the obstacle itself… the FDA.

The FDA has issued letters of “no objection” to companies which use stevia as a natural, no calorie sweetener, essentially stating it would no longer seek to oppress or outlaw stevia-based sweeteners used in health foods and beverages.

I can’t even begin to tell you the importance of this breakthrough. In short – stevia will prove to be a major element in the health, wellness and fitness fields for generations to come.

Artificial Sweeteners and Your Fitness

I get lots of emails asking about my position on artificial sweeteners. I mention briefly in my free version of the Blow-Torch Diet ebook that I am against them and I advise all readers to stay away from them.

I also mention the herbal extract, Stevia, as a safe and natural alternative. I give it to my kids – thats how much I believe in it. Me and Jeri-Jo do not allow them (or us) to consume chemically altered sweeteners.

I also mention that I will be addressing some of the finer details about this subject in my book, “Fatness to Fitness”.

In the meantime – here is an article that Pam forwarded to me last week. (In her email Pam wrote, “Joey, you are on the cutting edge!”) – in some regards, she’s right – however, being on the cutting edge sometimes just involves using a little bit of foresight and some ‘universal’ common sense.

Before you read the article – please be warned that there is information that sits ‘between the lines’ – and most who read this will not pick up on this vital info – but I am making it a point to address it solidly in my book (I know many of you have been waiting very patiently for the book – please note – we are getting closer! & are hoping to have it published in the first half of 2008).

Read the article for all that its worth – but also remember – the most important stuff is not in black and white – it’s ‘below the surface’.

Here is the article in the Wall Street Journal:

Artificial Sweeteners Replaced by Natural Ingredients? (this link is old news, thats why I’ve removed it – as you can see above I made this post in the middle of 2007…

BUT – here’s a very recent article on the FDA’s position regarding stevia:

Stevia Natural Sweetener Gets FDA Go-Ahead

Have you heard of stevia?

Do you use stevia?

What foods or beverages would you like to see stevia used in?

Please post your comments and ideas below…

My Deepest Dieting Fear Conquered: Fat Loss Is Forever

October 24th, 2008

- by Joey Atlas
________________________________________________________________

My Deepest Dieting Fear Conquered: Fat Loss Is Forever…

-

A few weeks ago I mentioned that I’ve finally been able to make the complete transition (my life-long dream) to working from home (or anywhere else I wish to take my laptop)…

But what I never told you is…

During the last year, leading up to this milestone, one of my biggest fears of working from home was “what’s going to happen with my eating habits once I’m operating from home on a full time basis?”

See – as you already know – I’ve had my personal challenges since childhood with my weight, body image, food codependency and a wicked sweet tooth…

I’m quite different from the majority of personal trainers/weight loss coaches who have “always been in shape” – most of them have never lived through the experience of living “a full time battle with your body and mind”…

But I’ve been on the other side and I know exactly what it’s like…

During my adult years – ESPECIALLY with kids in the house – one of my biggest challenges has been ‘being at home on the weekend after a long, busy work week…’

I would simply eat whatever I could get my hands on. Up until about 4 years ago – I couldn’t conquer this demon – it was the last ‘weak point’ that I needed to fix – or so I thought…

During the last 4 years – I did beat that challenge – and weekends were no longer “2 days of uncontrollable binge eating” – they were under complete and natural control and in line with my goals…

But I had never been home EVERY DAY… And when I realized what this type of challenge this situation might hold for me – it was a bit scary and unsettling… But onward we go…

Well it’s been about 2 and a half months since I started working from home on a full time basis – and I’m quite excited to share… “the final demon has been conquered” – as a matter of fact my state of mind, self awareness and “living in line with my desires” is easier and more natural than I thought it would be…

The goal I set for myself about 5 years ago was to get back to my high school weight of 133lbs – BEFORE I hit the age of 39 – and STAY at that weight – with a body-fat% of no higher than 12%…

Well – my weight is holding an average steady of 133.5lbs with a body-fat% ranging between 9.8 and 11.5 and I’m 38 years young …I DID IT!!

Did this happen “by accident” or just “by itself”? No way… See, this type of ‘change’ doesn’t happen by accident – there are things I did… simple, subtle yet powerful things… – that ANYONE can do (yet most people don’t do – because they are not shown how) – to make this kind of self improvement success happen…

And these are precisely the things I’ll be teaching when I open the doors to ‘Every Day Fat Loss’ at the start of 2009. Lots of questions have been coming in via email and on this blog about the program – so I’ll answer some of them here:


What Is ‘Every Day Fat Loss’


-

1 – It is ideal for any woman who has struggled with her weight – and currently desires to get the fat off and keep it off…
-

2 – Even though it’s primarily for women – men can participate as well – and get the results…
-

3 – The program is NOT for the clinically obese. If you fall into this category – you need medical intervention, first and foremost. ‘Every Day Fat Loss’ is not a program for the clinically obese.
-

4 – IT is not “just another e-book”… EDFL is structured to provide the missing elements that have prevented you from achieving fat loss success in the past. This requires more than a book or a PDF, for most people.
-

5 – EDFL will be open to people all over the world – and the tactics will be applicable to the food choices in any country.
-

6 – Exercise is NOT a major part of EDFL. This is not another unrealistic 2-hour per day fitness regime combined with a psychotic bodybuilder diet being disguised as a simple weight loss program.
-

Exercise will be a tiny part of EDFL – I’ll actually be teaching you how to do as little exercise as possible (via online videos) – while still getting the fat off… If you choose to do more, that’s up to you. In today’s busy society – I realize every minute of the day is valuable – especially to the busy women of the world.

Well – that’s all I have for today. I hope my story of success has energized you and given you hope for what you are capable of – and what powers are inside you waiting to be tapped into…

If you have any questions about EDFL, or want to share you biggest weight loss challenges or fat loss failures – feel free to click on ‘Comment’ below and post your question or comment there…

Fat Loss Breakthrough: Small Disc Promises Fat Burning Success

Fat Loss Breakthrough: Small Disc Promises Fat Burning Success…

URGENT: Before I tell you about this small disc – be sure to go and get your free copy of ‘Confessions of a Former Yo-Yo Dieter’ at my other site: http://www.FatLossConfessions.com <= Click Here - this freebie is going very quickly - so don't miss out

NOTE: When you get to http://www.FatLossConfessions.com – don’t be surprised if you see your photograph on the website ;-) )

-

Ok – about this Fat Loss Disc…

2 weekends ago – me and Jeri-Jo (my wife) took the kids to the park to run and play, etc… We usually grab a soccer ball or a football – but this day – I grabbed a frisbee…

fat burning cardio with frisbee
$7 Disc Causes Safe & Fun Fat Loss

-

I’ve always loved playing frisbee – ever since I started throwing one as a youngster. During my teen years we’d throw it so much we had to start using glow in the dark frisbees – because we just didn’t want to stop, even when the sun went down…

We never got tired because it was endless fun. Seeing who could throw it farther, faster, trickier – and of course who could catch it behind the back, between the legs, behind the head – you name it…

Coming back to the present… now in my older youth – it’s still just as fun – but now I have the joy of teaching my kids how to throw and catch a frisbee – and they’re loving it…

We all broke a good sweat, burned a bunch of calories – even got a little good muscle soreness from all the different movements involved in throwing, chasing and catching this magical little disc…

I was so back into it – I ran to Target during the week and picked up the MaxFlight from Wham-O that you see pictured above (I got mine in black though) – and it cost just a few cents over $7. Now how’s that for a fun, effective and portable piece of fat burning cardio equipment that the whole family can use??

We went back to the park again this past weekend – and did our ‘Frisbee-Fit’ workout with the MaxFlight I picked up… If you want to get yours – just go to Amazon – they have a ton of frisbees…

My main point here is… effective exercise and weight loss – doesn’t have to be boring, monotonous or expensive – as you an see from my perfect example above…

Be creative, have fun – and “think outside the gym”…

Do you have any good alternatives to traditional, stereotypical types of cardio exercise? (You can’t say ’sex’ – because I just said it ;-) )

Whatever ideas you have – just list them below – by clicking on ‘Comment’…

Diet & Weight Loss Scams: How to Spot a Diet Scam Quickly

-

I went through a bunch of diet & weight loss advertisements and notes I took over the last few months.

There are a handful of claims that these products or programs make – that are a loud signal for you to know that you are looking at a rip-off.

This is not a complete list – as I have more to add in the future – but so far these are the most frequently abused BS claims…

When you see them – just keep going – and don’t be fooled…

“Lose weight without diet or exercise!”

“Lose weight no matter how much you eat of your favorite foods!”

“Lose weight permanently! Never diet again!” <= this one can be true but most of the time it is NOT)

“Block the absorption of fat, carbs, or calories!”

“Lose more than 30 pounds in 30 days!”

“This works for everyone because it’s so easy!”

“Lose weight with our miracle supplement, diet patch or cream!”

What claims have you come across (or even tried) – that are clear rip-off diet or weight loss scams?

Just post below – because everybody reading this also wants to know… Just click ‘Comment’…

Fat Loss Hoax: History Reveals Diet & Weight Loss Deception

September 16th, 2008

- by Joey Atlas: FORMER Yo-Yo Dieter
________________________________________________________________

Fat Loss Hoax: History Reveals Diet & Weight Loss Deception

-

The latest research shows that 99% (99 out of every 100 people) of the general public is tuned into the mass media via 2 or 3 mediums, at minimum, at an attention level adequate enough to be influenced and/or (mis)led by it. …not surprising at all…

But in that statistic lies some sordid truths…

By mass media – I’m referring to TV News/Talk Shows, Commercials, Radio, Newspapers, Magazines, etc…

And since mass media is supported by the Big Money Players (companies with lots and lots of money to spend on, (and control) advertising, and indirectly – programming…)

You ONLY get exposed to “their products” over, and over, and over – and for every commercial or advertisement that is run – there are a certain number of buyers (you may have been one of those buyers at some point…) that these companies can ‘bank on’ – and hence they keep pouring money (that comes from the profits they generate from all the consumers) into this perpetual money machine…

People BUY – They TRY – They FAIL…

- and the cycle keeps repeating itself…

BUY… TRY… FAIL…

BUY… TRY… FAIL…

BUY… TRY… FAIL…

This may sound familiar to you – or you may have seen people you know, experience this demoralizing cycle…

The problem is – this prevents you from getting access to other products and solutions, produced by real professionals… individuals (not big companies or wealthy doctors who have lots of money to write a diet book and then spend millions of dollars on advertising)…

…real people that are ‘in the trenches’ – creating and perfecting their own fool-proof methods that actually deliver on the presented promises… and personally hold themselves accountable to you…

Thankfully, the internet is giving people like me a fighting chance to reach out to people like you – with unique solutions that actually work…

In the next few months – before the New Year arrives here in the US (the program will be accessible worldwide) – I’m going to be introducing my Fat-Loss/Dieting solution to the world… and the cycle me and you are gonna see together is…

DO… SUCCEED…

DO… SUCCEED…

DO… SUCCEED…

It’s not gonna be an just ebook or a motivational set of cd’s (I’ll be sending you a free ebook in the next few weeks titled ‘Confessions of a FORMER YoYo Dieter’: 3rd Edition, updated and revised) – so stay tuned for that…)

…this fat-loss/diet project will be new and much more powerful than anything out there – something you haven’t seen or heard of before – I guarantee it…

Yes – it’s gonna be centered around the TACTICS I’ve spoken about in the last few weeks – but attached to the TACTICS are going to be ‘lifelines’, seamless coaching ‘devices’, simple implementation tools, and other ‘mechanisms’ that I can’t mention yet… that just can’t be offered by big companies… – which will make your efforts automatically successful…

One of my friends saw the outline if this program on paper… these were her exact words: “Holy smokes, Joey – this is like the ‘HOW’ of fat-loss – this is gonna be huge… you’re gonna be a total hero, especially with women, how in the world did you come up with this?”

Before I sign off – You must know this – Me and my ‘wiz kid’ programming Ace, Erik – are working literally around the clock on this. My wife peeked her head out of the bedroom at about 2:17am last night/this morning to see if I was actually typing away at the keyboard – or if she was just dreaming – well, she wasn’t dreaming ;-) )

But – we are doing all this work now – because what we’re creating is what’s going to make this all finally work for you – …it’s going to make what you need to do so darn easy – you just can’t fail…

Mark 2009 on your calendar as ‘Your Year’ – it’ll be here before you know it and by the time it gets here – you’ll be set up for success and closing in on your goals, and those around you can follow along or be green with envy as you get your body and life into the shape you’ve been dreaming of…

Stay tuned for this free ebook coming your way in the next week or two… a friend of mine pulled the older version from my files and asked if he could share it with some people – they loved it – so I updated and revised it this past weekend and added some more material for you… You’re gonna love it – and it’s the perfect intro for the new program – you’ll be glad you got your hands on this!
