  • Does anyone get their body fat % measured? The scale does not tell you everything. If you are trying to lose body fat and not muscle along with it, it is important to strength train. Unlike cardio, strength training will raise and keep your metabolism higher for longer after you are done working out...which makes you a…

  • I am at 1310 plus exercise calories.. I could never eat lower than that! On a side note, don't be afraid of fats. You need healthy sources of fat in your diet for your cells to function at their best!

  • The gym I work at requires all trainers to have at least a B.S. in Kinesiology or Exercise Science. This is ideal, but usually is only required at your high-end gyms. A lot of gyms will hire you with only a certification, but a degree definitely helps too if you want to be taken seriously in the industry. Some of the best…

  • Wow I think we got a little off topic here. As a fitness professional, I really don't think this workout is very good. Crunches are out-dated, and research shows they are bad for the discs in your back and are not very effective. Try planks instead! Also, if you are trying to lose weight, doing biceps and triceps alone…

  • A protein powder is a good way to supplement your protein intake if you are otherwise having a hard time getting enough in without all the added calories of other sources. I recommend whey protein. The one I have come to like the most and that I currently use multiple times a day is Dymatize Iso-100 Whey Protein Isolate.…
