Fat Burning Project Results - Erika

By
Every once in a while I’ll personally put someone through the 12 day Fat X Program and post their photos and details publicly.  I refer to this as a fat burning Fat X Project.  

I like to take on skeptics or cases that are generally tough. I do this not only for motivation, but to give tips and tricks on how to make your run through the Fat X Program as optimal as possible.  

For my 2015 Fat X Project I took on my friend Erika Woo.  We scheduled the start of the Fat X Program for  her the day after her overseas business trip. Jet lagged, sluggish and with a whacky workout schedule do to her busy daily schedule, we got through the workout program and these are her results. 
Fat Burning Workout Program

Her workout schedule was less than ideal, some of her workouts were started late at night 10:00 - 10:30 p.m., others were started early in the morning 7:00 -7:30 a.m. and the rest of the workouts were sprinkled in sometime in between.  Having a consistent workout schedule is ideal. In simple terms, it allows your body’s inner workings to prepare for the stress.  Energy levels, both mentally and physically will negatively be impacted by inconsistency.  With that being said, getting your workout in at an odd time is better than not getting it in at all.
Fat Burning Fat X Workouts
Being well rested before starting the Fat X Program is also ideal. Even though the workouts are short, they’re highly effective for improved fitness and fat loss when you can devote the proper mental and physical intensity to them.  Twelve days or so of fat burning Fat X workouts is no easy task and going into it fatigued will definitely cause some issues.  Erika had just come back from an overseas business trip and I could tell right off the bat that she was jet lagged and these workouts were going to be a struggle to get through.  

With the jet lag, fatigue and whacky workout schedule working against her, she still had the mental grit to get to and through each workout.  As I advocate, and what makes the Fat X Program extremely useful, I took notes and stats of each and every workout.  If you download the workout program, you’ll receive a workout manual that not only guides you through the exercise order, but makes it easy to track your stats. .  The purpose is so that next time through each and every workout, you can set goals and hopefully surpass your previous numbers.  As I tell my clients, improve performance and the aesthetics  of your body will follow.  

Here’s a quick list of things that I would suggest to Erika on her next time through the Fat X Program for even better fat burning and fitness results:

Start the fat burning program when well rested.
Get enough sleep. 
Have consistent workout times.  
Use heavier weight/resistance.
Meal plan.  
Hydrate properly.

When it comes to workout routines, there are plenty of them.  You can find them both offline and online.  With so many of them out there, it's hard to choose.  It becomes even more difficult to choose a workout routine because of the slick marketing and the continuous perpetuation of myths and misconceptions by the fitness industry which tends to place profit over truth.  In this post, I will help show you how to separate the good workout routines from the bad and why ROI is important. (Some fitness companies are not going to be happy with me.)

Advanced Tip for Better Workouts and Improved Results

Have you ever had a peanut butter and garlic sandwich?   Yeah, me neither! Peanut butter is delicious and so is garlic (used properly). But, while each is a good ingredient on its own, together they make for a disaster. You can view exercises and how they are implemented in a workout in the same way.  Think of exercises as ingredients. Exercises  can work well together like peanut butter and jelly, or, they can suck and waste your time and energy.   There’s a very important concept I learned many years ago that can improve your results, not only in fitness and any fitness goal such as fat loss, increasing strength, speed etc., but also in such things as cooking, music, art and many other realms of life.   What’s that concept?

Fat Burning Workout Program Day 3

By
This is one of my favorite fat burning workouts. It includes some of my favorite exercises. Don't let the pull ups intimidate you. You can use a pull down machine, or those rubber tubing exercise bands instead.   Included in this fat burning workout is one of the best, if not the best total abs exercise. It really works the abs hard and my clients usually have a love hate relationship with it. I call it the spin crunch, you'll see it towards the end of the free fat burning workout video..
