Ian Pattullo: February's Fat burn and endurance

Guy's check out Chad Waterbury, he is an amazing coach and I found his 10x10 ebook a very useful and a welcomed change to my usual workouts, I will be using a lot of his techniques in this months program .

I have decided to continue with January's fat burn into February and combine it with some endurance muscle training. This will consist of body weight exercise and high rep free weight exercises along with the fat burning technique's and exercises used in January's program. I will also continue with the new healthier way of eating as the results over the last four weeks were amazing. 102 kg to 95.5 kg, thats a 6.5 kg loss in 4 weeks and I feel I owe this to alkalizing the body by juicing and eating a lot more raw foods. A more detailed program will be released latter this year in the form of an ebook.

The most important thing we must understand is to have a goal and a plan, without either of these you will have near to no chance of succeeding. If you just decide to fat burn this month without either a goal or plan, you have nothing to aim for and little chance of achieving anything different to what you would normally achieve month in month out.

Last month my goal was to detox and try to introduce a healthier food intake by the means of alkalizing my body and Juicing, plus eating a lot more raw foods. ( I will cover a complete blog dedicated to Alkalizing, Juicing and raw foods as it truly has had the most amazing results) It takes 21 days of continuous focus to brake a bad habit and for the detox I eliminated coffee, alcohol, sugar, wheat, pasta, rice, milk etc. I did not find this to difficult and now I don't miss any of these, however I will occasionally have a beer or red wine. With the combination of eliminating foods and adding 2 or 3 fruit and veggie juices a day also adding salad and vegetables with my main meals I have manage to create a bottomless pit of energy, I have so much energy now that I am naturally waking up at 5 am ready to start my day, whereas before I needed 8 hours sleep a day I now only need 5 or 6.

Last month I was 102 kg and lost 6.5 kg now weighing 95.5 kg. So my goal this month is 3.5 kg loss aiming for 92kg.

So to recap, think of a goal that you really want to achieve, design a master plan that tis realistic and time specific, don't aim to high or to low. Record you weekly progress, if there is no progress in a week ask yourself why not and re-adjust the program of food intake.
