April Fool's Day??

On this April Fool's Day, I thought I would share my definition of a "Fitness Fool":

Fitness Fool- noun, someone who expects maximum return on minimal gain. Also, someone who gets no results, but keeps training and eating the same way expecting to get different results.

For the general population, improvements in body composition, body fat percentage, appearance, health, fitness, strength,etc will only be made consistently following this basic formula:

3 days per week-intense, structured, total body resistance training

3-4 days per week-intense, structured cardiovacular exercise

a healthy diet of natural food and natural drink, the appropriate amount of calories and macronutrients (protein, starch carb, vegetable carb, friut carb, fats)

Anything less than this and you are only fooling yourself.

Any questions-let me know!!
