You've probably heard all the "too good to be true" claims from the different supplement manufacturers. As a trainer and fitness enthusiast, I've tried several over the years - some that make a little difference and others that didn't.
You should be wary of any supplement that tells you that you can lose weight just by taking their pills and not exercising. There have been a few stimulants that have worked for some people to help accelerate fat loss, but not for others.
Often, these stimulants leave you jittery and anxious, and are not always healthy for you. Trying to lose weight without exercising is an uphill battle. Very few can do it and keep it off long term.
I have been training fairly intensely the last couple of months. After many injuries that kept me from training consistently for several years, I am back to where I want to be with my workouts. Much of the reason for that is all the joint mobility training I have done the last few years.
But that is a story I will share with you another time.
I've been combining sled pushing, bodyweight exercises, kettlebells and sandbag exercises for some really demanding workouts. Using multiple muscles and joints in all my exercises creates a greater stimulus for change than if I were doing bodypart isolation exercises.
This is especially true if your primary goal is fat loss.
A highly respected trainer became involved with a new supplement that is supposed to increase your lean muscle tissue, burn fat, help you sleep better and help fight the aging process. In checking it out, it seemed almost too good to be true.
Having been in the same seminar with this trainer, I knew he wasn't the typical flashy, salesman type, so I did some reading and decided to give it a try. I figured if it was only half as good as they said, it would still be worth it.
After two and a half weeks, I can see a difference in my physique and feel stronger. Its no miracle pill..... I'm still training my butt off, but I haven't made any other changes in my diet and its the only thing I'm taking right now. Its helping me recover faster and sleep better.
At 42, I feel no different than I did in my twenties, but don't recover quite as quickly from exercising, so this supplement has definitely been worth while. By Summer time, I should be in great shape at this rate - probably the best shape in years!
I'll be the first to say that my diet isn't as good as it could be. So if you have trouble changing your eating habits, but have no problem with the training aspect, this might be the answer. Stay tuned as I share more about this all natural product and show some of my progress pictures.
