4 Critical Factors to achieving your dreambody by Tony Tass

Now, you may burn only 200-300 calories during this time, which to be quite honest is not much.

However, your heart rate and metabolism are both elevated for many hours AFTER your 30 minutes of aerobic exercise and you could burn another 200-300 calories over the next 7-8 hrs.

Remember, the heart is a muscle, so do your aerobic exercise. And as a bonus, the calories burned will help you achieve your goals faster.

If you're already lean enough, you could cut down on the aerobic exercise to 2-3 times a week.

If you hate aerobic exercise (like sitting on a stationary bike), do what I do. Use this time to read a book or magazine you enjoy. You'll be amazed at how quick the 30 minutes is over.

3) Weight Training

----------------------------

Weight Training is extremely important because:

1) It builds muscle

2) Alters your body composition

I recommend training with weights 2 times per week, up to a maximum of 3 times per week. You can split the body up into 2 parts and do half one day, and the other half 3-4 days later.

Do exercises such as Squats, Bench Presses, Overhead Presses, Dips, Chin-Ups, Lat Pulldowns, and Deadlifts.

These basic, free weight exercises will pack on more

calorie-burning muscle than any machine ever could. They will also help you build muscle the fastest.

By performing exercises that involve large muscle groups, you are recruiting more muscle fibers when you lift, which will ultimately lead to better muscle gains for you.

Remember that every pound of muscle you gain, will burn calories just by existing. That is if you gain 5 lbs of muscle, you will burn extra calories EVERY DAY because that muscle needs nutrients to live.

So guess what? You can eat more and NOT gain weight. So do your weight training.

------------

4) Rest

------------

This last factor is the one that most often overlooked.

If all you do is lift weights, do aerobic exercise, and not sleep or rest much, you will quickly overtrain, and build up a lot of stress and completely stop your progress.

You'll be eating right, lifting hard, doing aerobic exercise, but if you get 4 hrs of sleep a night, you are wasting your time.

The body needs to rest. It's during this rest that your body will repair itself and get stronger. Please DO NOT short-circuit this process. Get AT LEAST 7-8 hrs sleep per night.

It will do WONDERS for your progress and FAT LOSS.

Follow the 4 Critical Factors I explained above and you will be well on your way to achieving the DREAM BODY you've always wanted.

Good Luck with all your Fatloss & Fitness Goals!
