THE NEW EXERCISE REVOLUTION: IRON IS SUPERIOR TO CONCRETE!

Scott Mendelson CPT www.infinityfitness.com and Eric Serrano MD, Smarter Exercise – Smarter Eating

If you want to get in your best shape ever for your New Year’s resolution, MD’S ARE PROVING THAT POUNDING THE WEIGHTS HAS MUCH MORE EFFICACY THAN DOES POUNDING THE PAVEMENT!

Once more, high intensity SB short burst exercise is proving more effective than any other exercise format!

To Scott - I am up and I’m serious to reach a body fat of less than 10%. I am about 20% and have already have lost 27 lbs. on better eating. I want to reach this level in 4 months. Is it possible and how much cardio should I do? Secondarily, do you recommend any start up training sessions that my MD can review too? My MD was amazed by my positive changes and I credit this to Dr. Serrano’s Alpha Omega and Fat Reduce!

A) From ERIC Serrano, “Congratulations. Please keepgoing and you are doing the right thing by makingsure to check in with your MD at least each 4 monthson any major fat loss program. This allows he or sheto make sure there are no nutritional deficienciesmanifesting, from any caloric or nutrient restrictions.”

From Scott – Hello and congrats. Listen, over the past 5 years or so, as it concerns start up fat loss programs (in those who may score as clinically obese, or whose body mass index (BMI) and levels offat registers as significantly overweight, many trainers and MD’s are finally following our established and published lead, and de-emphasizing aerobic exercise (especially running), in favor of compete body resistance training.

We can ask... “Why not replace about 80% of any planned ‘cardio sessions’ with better overall exercise, one that not only protects the integrity of your joints,but is of less duration yet, raises your metabolic rate chronically, building critical muscle, while causing your body to drop fat like a proverbial lead balloon?”

All exercise is “cardio!” If your ticker is not ticking neither are you. Fast-paced weight sessions add muscle, burns stored and dietary fat, decreases peripheral vascular resistance and increases cardiac output as your cardiac output equals your stroke volume X your heart rate (CO = SV x HR).

Training upon rising on a relatively empty GI tract creates some metabolic opportunity for more fat loss. This is due to carb fuels (sugar) not being restored and available - post your 8-9 overnight fast. But— this is usually relative to aerobic (cardio) exercise and building muscle requires different energy fuels than stored fats.

This is why Dr. Serrano is noted in his research on branched chain and free-form amino acids as a “fuel source” under varying well-hydrated conditions.

ALL of our some 12,000 clients over the numerous years all have earned great results with 100% MR and Muscle Synthesis (as noted by your MD’s amazement and the Alpha Omega and Fat Reduce).

Let’s address your fat loss goal.

Short burst (SB) workouts are the new standard. 15-20 minute intense exercise sessions will maximize metabolism, energy and even mental sharpness. SB burns calories. It also causes huge “metabolic after burn”– accelerating metabolism for many hours following exercise. Aerobics just do not cause much after burn.

Here’s a real world example:

“I am a grad student and I was always a first thing “cardio addict” for years based on physiology data from Douglas collections. That showed that my RQ (respiratory quotient) of C02 exhaled in relationship to Oxygen inhaled, was causing fats to be oxidized preferentially oxidized and utilized. But Dr. Serrano’s and Scott’sSB sessions have now replaced my cardio morning fever. I’m now down to 7% fat and my lean muscle tissue is 8.5 lbs. higher." - Mike L. - Tulsa, OK

As with Mike, increasing the intensity (and quality) of aerobic exercise will burn fat. So, more are going short duration, yet higher intensity.

An example of a SB session is alternating sets of chin ups with strict weighted push ups for a TOTAL of 40-100 reps for each exercise reached over 20 minutes. In fact, if you simply did 4 exercises and progressively adding weight — chin ups, pushups, crunches and free squats, with minimal rest, your body will soon enough be a tuned lean fit machine!

The client test group (11 males from 28-41 years of age), using SB workouts 4 times per week combined with a traditional weight training program later in the day averaged a 3.5% body fat loss during the first 45 days.

This was even more impressive when it was noted that ALL of the subjects herein, measured less than 16% body fat to begin with!!

Once more, none spent more than 4 hours exercising in a 7 day period. These subjects were given an amino loading protocol (vital raw materials) of Dr.Serrano’s 100% MR and Muscle Synthesis. This helped ensure complete substrate restoration and tissue nutrient repair, systemic and local recovery and accelerated muscle acquisition and fat loss.”

The key is that amino loading provided anabolic dietary nitrogen and metabolically, “forces” the body to use more stored fat as fuel during exercise. Amino Loading is well noted for improving performance and protecting lean body mass.

Dr. Serrano adds, “What makes 100% MR and Muscle Synthesis the most effective body comp improvement stack on the market? 15 years of research with real patient trials and I have the data to back up the great success! We spare no expense when it comes to raw materials.”

Do each exercise as a superset - Do at least 40 reps of each within 20 minutes using a slow, controlled speed of movement to maximize muscle recruitment.

One major secret to maximum fitness, both cardio and skeletal muscle is to cut training time, to cut bodyfat! While hundreds of articles are written each day ---- all addressing/discussing how to add weight and vary reps, sets, (leaps & bounds etc), how many address the critical issue of doing the same or more work, in less time? This is also a very important progression!

I call this “training density.” It’s the real forgotten factor of how to improve muscle growth and fat loss over time. Heightened TD (training density) causes an anabolic hormonal “explosion” with higher levels of blood testosterone and growth hormones.

Keep in mind that decreasing rest (progressively) increases the production of lactic acid. This lactate and increased free hydrogen ion, lowers blood and tissue pH and is mostly responsible for that “burn” that nature so happily provided us to remind us of what hard high intensity anaerobic oxygen debt work, truly feels like!

It’s important to note, that this hard exercise manifestation,is really a powerful precursor to growth hormonerelease. Naturally-released HGH is a pretty potentfat-burning hormone. Here is another variation to burnoff that fat!

I call it RRFL (Rapid Rip Fat-Loss) Training.

Try to cut you rest periods by 10 seconds each week without reducing weight. For you muscle hungry animals – try the first SB training routine above in the morning and this rapid rip routine in the late afternoon.

Q) Dr. Serrano I am seeking a 6-pack set of abs. BUT-- after 3 years of trying I can not make it happen. I want to hear your advice cold -- what do you suggest?

A) Training and nutrition must be re-considered! Tothe surprise of many, diet is much more important than previously understood.

“There is much more to fat loss and muscle gained than may be predicted from the overly-simplified energy equation of: Calories in vs. Calories out. Try eating 2,000 calories of potato chips or 2000 calories of balanced proteins, fats and low glycemic carbs andsee what happens, short term and over 30 days! In fact, hormones run our show and according to 15 years of hard research and great patient results, I can tell you for sure, that the same plan does not work for everyone.” Eric Serrano M.D.

However, those who can naturally manipulate their hormones with diet, supplementation and exercise are successful 100% of the time. That’s right.

The SB training is awesome. I do it myself when work piles up as I am limited on time. It makes my mind sharp and I stay in great shape. The SB abdominal routines are awesome and we have posted a video oninfinityfitness.com. Do it once per week and you will have a great six pack quickly assuming you are able to achieve a low body fat.

The most critical elements are determining how your hormones and metabolism react to certain food sources, timing and combinations.

Eric notes, “I always conduct that experiment with each patient. At seminars, I am always asked about calories to consume, macronutrients, carbs vs. fats, carb cycling and more. Indeed, all of these factors need to be ironed out, based on individual needs. Once more, changing certain factors (at the right time) is also critical to ongoing success!”

Scott notes, “Eric is 100% right and as a trainer dealing in more customized and personalizes approaches to altering body constituencies, I do this by communicated with clients regularly. The customized plans do work.

Remember, your DNA is unique and individual traits play a vital role in program design including age, gender, genetic background, stress levels, prior nutrition habits and so much more. For example, should a person who works all day doing manual labor eat the same amount as someone behind a desk, even if they weigh the same and have similar goals? Nada. Small refinements can be the difference between slow progress and staggering fat loss. Explaining the methods would takeup too much space, but needless to say you better find help from an expert if you are looking for both rapid and permanent results.

“I was skeptical of nutrition changes Scott suggested, but I could not argue with the results! His programs were easy to follow. I was never hungry. My net loss was 6% body fat (about 9 lbs. of fat), in just 2 months.I am now very lean!” Jennifer M. – Yuma, AZ

Insulin is a fat storage hormone, Cortisol activates fat accumulation receptors supporting fat deposition (and specifically on the mid-section for men and upper legs for women).

The typical American Diet combined with growing rates of stress is a recipe for physique disaster. A powerful method for attacking mid section fat is again, our combination of Alpha Omega and Fat Reduce.

Alpha Omega is a filtrated essential fat supplement unmatched for purity and effectiveness. It contains several ingredients in specific ratios, known for combating both elevated insulin and cortisol.

Eric adds, “I engineered Alpha Omega and Fat Reduce based on many years of blood work. I established clear markers that resulted in massive fat loss. Establishing what needed to be done was the easy part! Three years later, Fat Reduce was born! 30 patients participated in a trial and used Fat Reduce without any changes in diet or exercise over a 1 month period. They lost fat weight because the average metabolic increase was over 400 calories per day. My attitude has always been to make the most effective supplements possible and using science and patient trials. I back the effectiveness of 100% MR, Muscle Synthesis, Alpha Omega and Fat Reduce. I’ve seen them work over and over again for several years.”

“I take the fitness mission of every client as a personal challenge. I must help them win. I provide the customized tools necessary to get their job done. With Dr. Serrano, our powerful combination of exercise, dietary expertise, supplement strength AND dedication is unmatched.
