  • That's actually incorrect. It takes 3500 calories to burn 1 lb of fat, so you need a calorie deficit of 500/day. As far as eating back the calories you burned, experts say that you should not go below 1200 cals/day. So if you only ate 1200 and burned 400, you are left with only 800 calories...which they say is unhealthy.…

  • Everything is based on moderation and how quickly you want to loose weight. Eating healthy is a habit, same way your McDonald's eating habit...that's why you crave for it. Once you perform the habit of eating healthy, you'll crave water, instead of soda and anything fried makes you think twice...even free doughnuts. You…
  • I'm a 2nd Degree black belt in TKD, used to have my own school. I also taught cardio kickboxing at a local big box fitness center. I had the biggest class at the time...it was a tough class but made it fun. I had students who took kickboxing from other instructors before and hated or got bored with it...but loved and lost…
