All tag results for 'burn'

When exercising or trying to lose weight my #1 rule is…don’t judge yourself! Everyone has a different body, everyone has a different pace. If you focus on your cellulite, muffin top, flab, etc…you will get burnt out easily. Have confidence in yourself for continuing to stick to it!

Incorporate "Superstar Foods" into your everyday life. They all contain secret ingredients that cause the body to burn fat. Examples include: 1/2 grapefruit, 1 apple, 1 breast of free range chicken, 2 eggs with the yolk and 1/2 cup of oatmeal.

If we can't believe the results in informercials… what can we believe??

Our whole universe is shattered: the BowFlex guy says he didn't get his abs using the machine!

Noooooooooo!! Ha!

Apparently, TJ Hoban got his bounce-a-quarter-off-them abs nearly entirely by eating well, not the machine he's selling.

Boo!

For someone that says it's all on the diet, he sure says the opposite in the commercial that's claiming, "no diet plan" can build muscle and burn fat like the Bowflex machine.

Lame!

Either way, he's in fab shape!

The guys over at Dynamics of Motion have been very kind to us in revealing the secrets of fitness.

Now, they've sent us a video explaining why it might be better to do short burst workouts vs long ones in the case of burning fat.

Basically, it comes down to whether you want to burn calories, or if you want to burn fat (without burning muscle, too!) Check it out above!

Thanks, Dynamics of Motion!

We told you they were doing it!! And here it is!!

Check out the video for Burnout, the new rap from MattyB featuring NASCAR driver Max Gresham!

It's pretty cool (especially for an 8 year old) that Max is driving the No. 66 MattyB BurnOut themed truck in the video AND in actual races!

So take some time and watch it above!

So much talent!!

Every time we wonder this question we immediately forget to ask someone about it as soon as we get off the machine!

We're glad someone thought to ask it, though, and to our Mike Donavanik no less!

The question:

I was wondering when using cardio machines in the gym how close is my actual calorie loss compared to how many calories the machines show I'm burning? Thank you!

Mike's answer:

Unfortunately, the number of calories a cardio machine shows you burning is usually off by 10-15%! It can be off by even more if you don’t input your age and weight. For a more accurate calorie burn reading, I highly recommend using a Polar Heart Rate Monitor, Garmin Heart Rate Monitor or dotFIT’s Exerspy. If those are not available to you, when you do cardio make sure you enter your details (age and weight) into the machine and take 10% off the final number of calories the machine says you’ve burned.

Thanks Mike! We were actually guessing that it'd be a little worse off than that, so that's good news!

And if U have a question you'd like answered, write Tips@FitPerez.com or tweet @MikeDonavanik! We'd love to hear from you!
