Being in Shape<br />

In this day and age, the importance of staying fit and controlling body fat<br />

percentage is essential to a modern man. Being and staying “fit” isn’t as simple<br />

as the first association suggests. It implies having a type of body that can endure<br />

all sorts of daily activities without a feeling of exhaustion or a direct impact to<br />

one’s health. The modern job requirements range from working long hours in<br />

an office, sitting, which is certainly not good for your health and your body posture,<br />

to jobs that require lots of standing and walking such are various sales jobs,<br />

waitressing, service desks and so forth. Our Full Body Transformation Program<br />

gives a simple and accessible, yet thoroughly planned and optimized, recipe for<br />

improving all around fitness, body posture, concentration, looks and overall self<br />

confidence.<br />

Running VS Strength training<br />

There are quite a few ways to reduce body fat. One of them, most<br />

commonly used by recreational athletes is the extended treadmill running. This<br />

method requires constant running or brisk walking for 28 to 29 minutes with the<br />

pulse ranging from 120-135 bpm, after which the process of burning fat starts<br />

(entering into oxidative phosphorylation) with the rate of 1 kg of fat burned for<br />

every 10-30 hours of running, depending on the intensity.<br />

As you can see, and probably have tried before, this method is extremely<br />

slow and pretty much unproductive and here’s why:<br />

By running you increase your aerobic endurance and you really burn some<br />

fat BUT at the same time you stimulate secretion of hormones which have a<br />

negative effect on your muscles. Not only is this somethig you want to avoid,<br />

you want the exact opposite. Furthermore, while running, muscles of your legs<br />

work only with 40 to 50% while the rest of your body is pretty inactive, thus your<br />

complete musculature is neglected
