Well, there is some confusion out there in the world of Weight Loss.

The confusion is, people do not know how much food to eat and how much exercise is needed to burn calories.

Ready for some simple math, here it is;

Let’s say you are female and (not saying particulariliy anyone) weigh appproximately 175 lbs.

1st, you take 175 lbs and x that by 10, =  1,750 (calories needed to maintain life function, not including your daily activity). This is your BMR - Basal Metabolic Rate

Under a general assumption, we assume you add 20% of daily activity effort to that (work, no exercise yet).

**********Disclaimer******************

Jobs differ

Some Construction workers burn quite a few calories. (So do stay at home Mom’s - I know)

Office workers are what we gauge these numbers (20%) by.

So… Lets take 1,750 x 20% = 350 daily activity calories

Now, just by breathing, going to work, and doing daily chores YOU burn 2,100 calories/day.

Numbers don’t lie.

If you are consuming 2,100 calories/day - YOU WILL NOT lose weight!

Just maintain  

If you over eat or move less - YOU WILL gain weight!

Here is another number.

Lets say you burn 500 calories per hour.

If you do this every day over the course of 7 days = 3,500 calories burned.

Heck, there goes 1 lb of FAT!

Ok, it gets better.

Take that Total daily activity munber and consume 500 calories LESS 7 days/week = 3,500 calorie deficit.

Ok, YOU excited yet?

I just explained to you the simple math to be in a deficit of 7,000 calories/week = Presto….

**************   2LBS GONE PER WEEK!!!   **************** 

Hold the phone Batman, one more.

It is known that the average person out there who adds 1 lb of muscle burns approximately 50 calories/day at rest.

Well…….

If you add 10 lbs of muscle (while losing 10 lbs of fat, weight didn’t change too much there) you now burn

500 Calories/day at rest.

Yeah, while you are sleeping!!!

Isn’t that great? Another lb gone, right?

My question to you is, are you disciplined to try and lose 12 lbs/month (if you need to that is?) ?

As a Mobile Personal Trainer, our job function is to get you that!

I want you to burn more at rest,  lose calories from daily exercise, and eat less but more frequent from our customized Meal Plans.

There is the science.

If we at TOS kick your butt 3 days/week for 1hr = 500 calories each workout + after 30 - 60 days you will have an additional 10 lbs of muscle, and eat 500 calories less per day -  we essentially are getting you to be in a potential deficit per day of 1,500 calories on the day you train with my Trainers.

WOW!!

Even at exercising 3 days/week = Negative 4,500 calories.

I know I know, sign you up - right?

Hey guys,

On this post I want to discuss what type of equipment do you use with your resistance training.

Are you a believer of Bands?

Do you benefit from Barbells?

Or do dumbbells deliver?

Bands…

I like bands personally for many different reasons;

• They are portable
• They are affordable
• They provide varied resistance

With bands, when you start the exercise the load is easy but gradually becoming increasingly harder every inch into the movement.

Bands weigh virtually nothing but when expanded they can be a tough load on the desired muscle.

Barbells…

The reason why barbells are great is;

• You can lift very heavy weight
• Very sturdy
• You can perform power movements

Barbells usually require a great deal of space and are most often used in a gym setting. One would have to be an experienced exercise enthusiast to use barbells.

Dumbbells

Dumbbells rock because;

• They are portable
• You can recruit a great deal of stabilizer muscles with them
• The required resistance

Dumbbells give you the same resistance at the start of the movement all the way through until the end. If you are investing in dumbbells, invest in Bowflex select techs http://www.fitnesssource.ca

You surely don’t want to invest in 17 different sets of dumbbells and pay double the price?

Don’t forget to leave your comment on the blog on which you prefer, Bands , Barbells, or Dumbbells?
