Lancaster Personal Trainers 4 Tips to Keep Fat-Free Throughout the Holidays
We are back, sorry it has been awile since we have had any updates. Due to our house issue and such, we are just now getting back into the swing of things. I hope the following will help you through the "tough" times of the Holidays.
Now we all know how busy we can get right? I sure as heck due. However, you can't let yourself get caught into the trap of not working out to make more time for the holiday run around. Its typically a big mistake that most people fall into; which puts you at risk of losing the lean muscle mass and strength that you have worked so hard to build and maintain. "Why?", You might say. Loss in lean muscle mass will lower your resting metabolic rate, which accounts the the vast majority of calories you burn in the day(about 60-75%). So, this means when you lose lean muscle mass, you will in turn be burning less and less calories throughout the day which will put you at a much greater risk of putting on nasty, ugly, unwanted body fat during the holidays. Make sense? Plus, losing strength will meant hat the next time you start to workout your perofrmance will be less than par and you'll get smacked right upside the head with that ugly work nobody cares to hear when it comes to training: Regression! Therefor, there are more clever ways to maintain or increase the number of calories you burn per day, both from exercise and from your normal daily activities, to stay fat-free this holiday season.
I promise if you use the strategies below you will maintain or even increase your current amout of Lean Muscle Mass and Maximize your daily calorie burn to the best to protect yourself from the holiday BLOAT.
1.) Perform atleast One Intense Strength Training Session Per Week!
Studies show that only one single strength training workout per week during times when you cannot train like you would like is an effective way to maintain current levels of strength and lean muscle mass. So, to best maintain where you currently are, shoot for atleast one good strength trining workout per week to stay buff during the holidays and prevent that unwanted regression. To maximize fat burning, perform three total body strength workouts and also perform three cardio interval workouts per week on non strength training days.
2.) Hit Your Totals
Your body is a moron. In other words, it can't tell the difference between 100 pushups performed in a row vs. 100 total pushups performed in a day. When you honestly can't find a five to 20-minute time slot to complete an effective total body workout, look for hidden chunks of time during the day that you can sneak in a certain amount of reps to shoot for a daily total. i.e. - 20 push ups when you get up, 20 push ups at lunch, etc...=100 per day!
Using this method throughout the da will lead to big numbers by the end of the day that will burn the same amount of calories in addition to creating similar muscle building effects, as if you did them all at once.
It is important to note that this "Hit Your Totals" routine is merely a back-up option the the ideal 20 minute interval training workouts which are proven to burn nine times more fat than ordinary exercise. Short rest periods between rounds create the optimal hormonal enviroment for rapid fat loss and lean muscle gain, where as the long rest periods, full recovery, between movements do not. However, it comes down to effective versus optimal, so be sure to at least be effective this holiday season. (effective=Hit Your Total, optimal=50-10 Interval Workouts)
As we talk about in camp, make sure you get the most Bang for your Buck while doing these types of workouts. (i.e. - dealdlifts, lunges, pushups, rows, push press, high pull, etc.) Use the plan below to guide yourself into building your own "Hit Your Totals" workout. Adjust the repetition ranges accordingly base on your current strength levels. The only thing you need is your body weight, dumbbells, and/or bands. Perform this plan up to three times per week, resting a day between workouts. Make sure to alternate between Plan A and Plan B for variety reasons. You can either hit your total by doing one exercise first, or simply employ a circuit style setup.
The Hit Your Total Workout For The Holidays
Plan A-
Body weight Squats or Hip Extensions: 100-200 total
Push-ups: 50-100 total
DB/Band Rows: 50-100 total
Plan B-
Body weight Lunges or Single-Leg Hip Extensions: 50-100/total per leg
Off Chair/Couch Dips: 50-100 total
DB/Band Push Press: 50-100 total (feel free to swap pull-ups or pull-downs here if you have access to the equipment)
3.) Rage Against The Machines
Machines have made us an incredibly out of shape and overweight society. This holiday season make it a point to not use them! Now I don’t mean to say that you cannot drive to the mall during the holidays. However, when you get to the mall, try to park further away so you can do more walking to get inside. Avoid using elevators and escalators and opt for the stairs; all those steps truly do add up. Instead of having your naughty kids carry the bags, burn more calories by carrying the bags yourself (sorry, that was the former naughty kid in me raging, ha ha). Stay on your feet as much as possible and resist the temptation to let a robot or machine do the work for you.
4.) Engage in more outdoor holiday activities
I have been in some pretty incredible snowball fights in my day. Though I was always having a blast while pelting my friends behind some sweet built-by-Greg igloos, I was never aware of how exhausting a good snowball fight can truly be until I came indoors afterwards. My snowsuit was soaked with sweat and I had spent the last 30 minutes or so in total fight or flight mode. Talk about an awesome way to burn calories without even thinking about it! Get outdoors this holidays season and throw around the pigskin or have your very own “Ice Bowl.” Once again, all these calories here and there truly do add up and could make a difference between you fitting in your pants or ripping your pants by the time the clock strikes midnight this New Year!

It Rained inside my house! But here’s Some Exercises for Super Fast Belly & Thigh Melting Fat Loss and Lean Muscle Gain
It has been a venturous week thus far.
There has been some pretty nasty colds going around...and on top of that...
It Rained INSIDE my house! Holy cow, this is no joke. Yesterday we had a main waterline on our second story burst open and flood the downstairs. Coach, Chair, Carpet, Ceiling, Floor...Everything got wet.
But guess what? We are still blessed with a roof over our heads. So again, I apologize for the blog postings.
So let's get back on track today, okay?
I'll Keep this as basic as possible for ya. The best exercises that induce rapid fat loss also produce lean muscle gain, and visa versa. All of these exercises have one thing in common: They Provide a UNIQUE challenge to your body AND involve many muscles in your body as possible = BANG FOR YOUR BUCK.
Scientific and real world studies have both shown that total body workouts are far more superior than isolated workouts when it comes to maximum thigh melting and muscle gain. Buts lets look into this a little further...
Let's drastically accelerate results by selecting TOTAL BODY EXERCISES within each TOTAL BODY WORKOUT! Are you following me? Here's an example, squats are known best for being a great muscle builder with a serious fat melting effect. However, the squat goes from great to UNSTOPPABLE for changing your body for the better when you make it a combination move by adding rows or a press to each squat rep. Its obvious that you can reap more benefits this way since you are now involving your upper body into the king of the lower body exercise.
Its as simple as the Super Body Equation below:
Performing Total Body Exercises Within Each Total Body Workout -
More Muscles Used at ONE time =
More Calories Burnt + Greater Muscle-Building Stimulus =
Greater Fat Loss + Greater Lean Muscle Gain
I gotta tell ya the truth, I have a true love-hate relationship with the following moves I am about to share with you. I love them because of the unstoppable fat melting, and muscle building results they provide to help maximize body sculpting. Hate because they push me to my limits every single time I workout by leaving me in a pool of tears and sometimes a visit from my dear friend Mr. Pukie. In other words, these are not for the weak of mind, body, or soul.
With at any more delay, here are the official top 10 List of my favorite exercises in the world of fat shredding and lean muscle gain.
Exercise #1 - Power Clean + Squat to Overhear Press Combo ===Puke every time ;)
Exercise #2 - Any Squatting Combination Exercise- Squat Thrust/Burpee Variations, Squat to Overhead Press, Squat to Row, Squat to Chest Press, Braced Core Squat, Single Leg Squat plus curl to press, etc..
Exercise #3 - Any Lunge Combination Exercise- Alternating Lunge Plus Curl to Press, Alternating Lunge plus Twist, Alternating Lunge plus Chest Press, Alternating Reverse Lunge plus Row, Split Jump plus Jerk, Split Jump plus Curls, etc...
Exercise #4 - Any Push-Up Combination- Push-ups plus Knee-Ins, Push-up Rows, Spiderman Push-ups, Squat Thrust Push-ups, Ladder Crawl Push-ups
Exercise #5 - The Chop - Dumbbells, Kettlebells, Med Balls, Bands, or Sandbags
Exercise #6 - Olympic Lifting Variations: Dumbbell or Kettlebell Cleans, Snatches, High Pulls
Exercise #7 - Dynamic Back Pillar plus 1-Arm Dumbbell Chest Press
Exercise #8 - One Legged Deadlift plus curl to press
Exercise #9 - Med Ball Snatch-Slam Combo
Exercise #10 - Dead Lifts Supersetted with Wall Ball - Med Ball
Here's a great highlight reel of the above exercises so you can add them to your own training routine at home for better results:
VIDEO COMING FRIDAY!
Well, I hope that you take my expert advice and jack up your training with these super deadly total body combination exercises. I guarantee you better results in less time by regularly employing these moves into your workouts. Of course its up to you to take your workouts, and body, to the next level.
I'll be sharing some more great exercises for those specific trouble spot areas (Thighs, Butt, Stomach, Chest, and Arms, etc..) that are holding your super body back in the days to come ;)

Lancaster Personal Trainer: Building The Ultimate “Bang for your Buck” Training Workout For Rapid Fat Loss
Alright ladies, here’s what you’ve been waiting for…In the past, the cornerstone of most resistance training workouts has been performing exercises in a straight set format. This means you perform a certain number of reps for any given exercise or you perform as many reps as possible for a given exercise and then you rest anywhere from 30 seconds to five minutes based on your training goals before repeating this set a certain number of times based on your goals. When looking for more of a fat loss and lean muscle gain, shorter rest periods are more adequate. To get more of a strength or power emphasis, longer rest periods are prescribed.
So, what’s the problem with this style of training? Well, although straight sets are extremely easy to comprehend for people new to fitness, they are also an extremely inefficient way to use your time while exercising. This is what I would call, “Getting the most bang for your buck” while at the gym or working out. In most typical commercial gyms you’ll see someone perform three sets of 10 reps for let’s say the bench press. They pump out 10 reps, go to the water fountain, talk with some buddies, look at themselves in the mirror, check out some girls, watch a couple of highlights on ESPN, and then gingerly walk back to the bench area to hit up their second set. In general, most people, guys in particular, tend to take about 3-5 minutes between sets. In the case of three sets of 10 on the bench that means it would take up to 15 minutes to complete only one movement pattern (a horizontal push). That means you’d need at least in hour to perform four different exercises! Do you have time for that? I sure don’t!
A much more effective and “bang for your buck” approach to ordering your exercises would be utilizing the alternating set format. Now read this carefully, it will save you massive amounts of time and headaches. This is where you’ll perform one exercise, rest for a short period of time, then perform another non-competing exercise, rest for a short period of time, and so forth. These types of sets allow you to work different areas of your body when you would otherwise be resting with the straight set format. Therefore, “More bang for your buck!” Plus, by working another area of your body with a non-competing exercise you allow your body to recover from the previous exercise(s). The result is improved training economy and density: more work accomplished in less time, the cornerstone of any sound fat loss program and keeping your family time. There are several ways to perform alternating sets outlined below:
1.) Supersets: Alternate between two different non-competing exercises (e.g. upper body and lower body such as push-ups and squats)
2.) Tri-sets: Alternate between three different exercises (e.g. push, pull, and lower body such as push-ups, rows, and lunges)
3.) Circuits: Alternate between four or more different exercises
Though supersets and tri-sets are excellent alternating set options, I believe circuit training is by the far the best option time and time again. To demonstrate why, let’s examine my favorite circuit training template using timed set intervals:
The 50-10 Five Exercise Circuit: You will alternate between 50 seconds of work and 10 seconds of rest for all five exercises in the following 5-minute circuit:
Exercise #1- Squats
Exercise #2- Dips
Exercise #3- Single-Leg Hip Extensions
Exercise #4- Pull-ups
Exercise #5- Leg Raises
Perform this circuit up to four times for a 20-minute total body fat burning workout.
Basically, in the same 15 minutes that it took to get in three sets on the bench, look at yourself in the mirror, chat with your buddies, you could have gotten in three sets of five different exercises for a staggering total of 15 work sets! Plus, the intensity on each exercise will be just as high as in the straight set format because in this five exercise circuit you will have full recovery with over four minutes before you return to any given exercise (just as you did with the straight set format described earlier).
To recap, the key to creating the optimal hormonal environment for fat loss is to perform each exercise with maximal intensity while separated by brief rest periods in order to accumulate a high volume of total body work in the shortest amount of time possible. Circuit training provides for the best of both worlds and is therefore simply unmatched for simultaneously maximizing fat loss and lean muscle gain. Use the following template I use with my many boot camp clients for some killer, yet simple fat loss circuits:
Exercise#1- Double-Leg
Exercise#2- Push
Exercise#3- Single-Leg
Exercise#4- Pull
Exercise#5- Core
Here’s a workout video showing you a great circuit you can perform anywhere:
I’ll be sharing some more great circuit training workouts from my boot camps in the weeks to come ;)

HealthE Tip of the Week!
Excerpted from: The Mayo Clinic Staff, Feb 14, 2007
It might be the last thing on your morning to-do list, or it might not be on your list at all. But a healthy breakfast refuels your body and jump-starts your day. So don't overlook this important meal. Select healthy options that fit your taste and lifestyle, and put breakfast back into your morning.
Breakfast not only starts your day off right, but also lays the foundation for lifelong health benefits. People who eat a healthy breakfast are more likely to:
· Consume more vitamins and minerals and less fat and cholesterol.
· Have better concentration and productivity throughout the morning.
· Control their weight.
· Have lower cholesterol, which reduces the risk of heart disease.
Breakfast is especially important for children and adolescents. According to the American Dietetic Association, children who eat a healthy breakfast are more likely to have better concentration, problem-solving skills and eye-hand coordination. They may also be more alert, creative and less likely to miss days of school.
A healthy breakfast should consist of a variety of foods, for example, whole grains, low-fat protein or dairy sources, and fruit. This provides complex carbohydrates, protein and a small amount of fat -- a combination that delays hunger symptoms for hours. Whether you opt for traditional options, such as yogurt, whole-grain muffins or ready-to-eat cereal, or less typical foods, such as leftover vegetable pizza or a fruit smoothie, you can get the nutrients and energy you need to start your day.
To make a healthy breakfast each day, choose one item from at least three of the following four food groups:
· Fruits and vegetables. Fresh fruits and vegetables, 100 percent juice without added sugar
· Grains. Whole-grain rolls, bagels, hot or cold whole-grain cereals, low-fat bran muffins, crackers, or melba toast
· Dairy. Skim milk, low-fat yogurt cups or low-fat cheeses, such as cottage and natural cheeses
· Protein. Hard-boiled eggs, peanut butter, lean slices of meat and poultry, or fish, such as water-packed tuna or slices of salmon
For a healthy breakfast on the go, munch dry, ready-to-eat cereal with a banana and drink a small carton of low-fat or skim milk. The best cereals are those that are higher in fiber. If counting calories, choose cereals that are lower in calories. Oatmeal is another good choice, and don't forget eggs, including hard-boiled eggs, which are easy to take with you. Although the yolk contains fat, it is mostly unsaturated fat. Plus, eggs are full of nutrients, including protein, vitamins A and B-12, folic acid, and phosphorus.
If you dislike regular breakfast foods, try something different, such as:
· Leftover vegetable pizza
· Low-fat yogurt topped with fresh fruit or whole-grain cereal
· Vegetables, salsa and low-fat cheeses wrapped in a tortilla
· Fruit smoothie with some low-fat yogurt and wheat germ
· Whole-wheat crackers with low-fat cheese
Eating out can be healthy! You can even make healthy breakfast choices at fast-food restaurants. Whole-grain bagels, rolls and English muffins are better for you than fat-filled doughnuts, scones, croissants or biscuits. Stay away from oversized breakfast sandwiches, bacon, sausage and whole milk.
One of the most frequently-used excuses for skipping breakfast is lack of time. A good way to overcome this is figure out what you will eat the night before and get up 10 minutes earlier to enjoy it, or pack something to take with you.
Many people think they are saving calories by skipping breakfast, but chances are you will be ravenous by lunchtime. This may lead to eating more, or your hunger at midmorning may tempt you to indulge in a high-fat treat that someone brought to the office. Thus, more calories are being consumed in the long run. Making nutritious breakfast choices can set you up for healthier eating all day long, not to mention jumpstarting your metabolism and energy level.

you on the go. Check out these Meal Shakes that mix with water and taste great, 100% guaranteed too!

Making Smart Choices at the Grocery Store
Fridge
- Cottage cheese and Yogurt: Mixed with chopped nuts or berries makes a great mid-morning or mid-afternoon meal.
- Chopped walnuts, almonds and pecans: Great source of healthy fats.
- Eggs: One of nature’s richest sources of nutrients and high quality protein.
- Avocados: Great source of healthy fats, fiber and other nutrients.
- Whole grain wraps and whole grain bread: Look for wraps and bread with at least 3-4 grams of fiber per 20 grams of total carbs.
- Leaf Lettuce and Spinach: Salads are a great addition to dinner.
- Homemade salad dressing: Use balsamic vinegar and extra virgin olive oil mixed with your favorite herbs and spices. Store bought salad dressings are very high in sodium and use highly refined soybean oil.
- Fruits: Contain natural sugar but the fiber in most fruits slows down the carbohydrate absorption rate and glycemic response.
Freezer
- Frozen Berries: A great source of antioxidants. Mixes well with protein shakes, smoothies, oatmeal, yogurt and cottage cheese.
- Frozen Veggies: Very high nutrient content compared to the fresh produce.
- Frozen Fish: Try different varieties to get your daily dose of omega 3’s.
- Frozen Chicken: Put individual servings in plastic bags for a quick, convenient dinner option.
Cabinets
- Oatmeal: High in fiber and a great way to start off your day.
- Various Antioxidant Rich Teas: Green, white and chamomile are some of the best.
- Brown rice: Always choose brown over white.
- Black or Kidney Beans: One of the best sources of youth promoting antioxidants.
- Tomato Sauce: Great source of lycopene. Just watch out for brands that are loaded with high fructose corn syrup.
Remember, you always have a choice.

Fat burning tips to get you started!
- carb science (carbs spike the fat-storage hormone INSULIN)
- Carb intake rules: no more than 30g/sitting and 100g/day max
- Body for Life (reduced carbs and shakes)
- Water: 1 gallon/day (4 liters), 30% increase in metabolism, DRINK UP.
Start Reducing workout time and burning more fat at the same time!
-Strength training w/ intensity - Yes, this means weights. If you're unsure of what to do, let me know, I'll send ya some pointers.
-minimize rest, up the resistance: Go hard, minimal breaks between sets.
-Interval cardio: peak intensity every 3rd minute - If you get ANYTHING at all from this entire message please learn this.
Working out for 45-60minutes on the treadmill is doing more harm than good. Workout for 15-20 minutes on a cardio machine. Every 3rd minute you go as hard as you can, the 2 minutes between make sure you are going at a good steady pace. This will leave you burning fat all day. Google "interval cardio" and read up.
Timing food around your workouts to feed muscle and burn fat
-Morning Routine: 1st thing in the am is the best time to work out. If this absolutely can not be done, than make sure that you keep your carb intake to a minimun 1 hour before and 1 hour after your workout. If you feed carbs before or after your workout than your body will burn them and not the spare tire around your belly for fuel.
-Afternoon: enter in fat-burn mode (Protein @ 3pm, Spark Energy @ 4:15)
Cycling your fitness and nutrition to keep your metabolism fresh and your body guessing
- Switch up your carb intake some weeks - 50g/day or 100g/day weeks
-Resetting on weekends
- Take a day of pure rest
