If you want to lose belly fat and get a flat stomach, all you need to do is to follow the law of weight loss. It is that simple.
There must be some reason why some people can lose weight faster than others. Of course there are a couple of factors to be considered like age and body type. But if all are equal, what is that one thing that is blocking some individuals from losing belly fat and preventing from getting a flat stomach. I have seen lots of people successfully lose weight and many that have invested years and money in gym membership but they get nowhere. Then I compiled the similarities of those who successfully lose weight and those who doesn’t and made a summary, which I call the law of weight loss.
People today are busy and they are constantly being pulled in different 20 directions. What often gets left off? Exercise. If you schedule exercise into your week at the beginning of each month, you will see that you are less likely to miss your training. Think I am nuts?

Anyone who has ever worked with me personally or in my group training knows I am about accountability. So one of the things I am having my clients do this month is to make a huge effort to make fitness a priority. To do this, I am asking all of them to put their workouts down as an appointment in their calendar.
What I am going to write about today is not a general specific fitness variable e.g. Strength or Endurance. I am going to write about the ESD which is a very important aspect of training to work out for an athlete competing in high level competitions. The ESD will show the percentage of an athlete’s strength potential that was not used in a given attempt of an exercise. This I hope will enable you to work-out where you are weak and help you plan to further progress to your athletic performance.
Cardiorespiratory fitness on the other hand is a condition by which the muscles of the body performs its work by circulating blood reaching the heart and thus supplements sufficient amount of oxygen through normalized breathing. It is also known as CR endurance or aerobic fitness.
This condition is required to sustain the regular utilization of large groups of muscles. It is also needed at elevated levels to allow constant and uninterrupted bodily functions. High levels would also permit a fast recovery from fatigue.

The Bowflex is a popular home gym workout system that incorporates polymer rods for resistance that emulates the typical weights and pulleys used in weight machines. It consists of on fairly large system that includes a bench as well as leg and arm levers. It comes in a much smaller package than the typical home gym, considering that only one unit needs to be purchased as opposed to several different machines. However, the Bowflex carries a high price tag. In fact the home gym system can cost up to 2,000 dollars. Bodylastics is a similar system that also relies on resistance training, but it is available for a mere 50 dollars and won’t take up important space in your home like a larger system will.
You have you home gym set up. You are ready to use it. Now, you want to have effective workouts. You want to reach your goals, just like you would have in the community gym. The good news is, you can and will. Get your exercise program together. Then go for it. At your personal gym, there is no waiting. You can just hop from one exercise to the next. Get a rhythmic flow to your workout. Rest the same amount of time between each set. This is good for adding on muscle, and also has cardiovascular benefits. This is often a challenge in the community gym, where you may have to wait to get on with the next exercise on your agenda.
In our grandparents’ day, you were expected to settle down and grow old gracefully. This meant gradually giving in to the limitations of aging; moving slower; losing strength; getting shorter as bones became more brittle. Human biology has not changed. We all grow older and lose ability, but today we know we can keep our bodies healthier, stronger, and more agile, often into our 70’s and 80’s.
The mysterious secret of this newfound fountain of youth? No secret at all. Healthy lifestyles, good diet, and perhaps most importantly, exercise can keep you in the game longer, and in many cases can prevent or delay the onset of debilitating conditions often associated with aging, such as arthritis, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.
