Top 10 reasons how women get fatter despite good intent

1. They do spinning classes.

2. They have Kashi for breakfast with skim milk for breakfast.

3. They go for coffee after training.

4. They follow a low fat diet, especially avoiding saturated fats.

5. They consume soy products.

6. They eat bagels because they are low fat. So is gasoline.

7. They don’t make time for themselves. Here is the best fat loss tip for women: take a week off just for you, no boyfriend/partner/husband and no kids.

8. They consume grains.

9. They use beauty products loaded with harmful chemicals such as parabenes.

10. They don’t follow the axiom: You are your schedule.

Mark Rippetoe on Strength Training:

"First thing we need to get out of the way: strength is the basis of athletic ability. If you are a good athlete, you are stronger than a less-good athlete. If you want to be a better athlete, you get stronger. If you are already very strong, there is room in your training for the development of other aspects of performance. But there is a very high likelihood that you are not that strong, since most people are not. You may think you’re very strong, but really, you know you could get stronger, don’t you? Sure you do. You may have convinced everybody else that you’re strong enough; you may even be convinced of this yourself. This is not productive, because if you can get stronger you should do so, and a lack of strength may be why you’re not performing as well as you know you should be. If your progress is stuck, and has been for a while, get stronger and see what happens. It works every time, and this is why I know it’s true.

You say you’re a runner, and that you don’t need to be strong. Get stronger and see what happens to your times. Or you’re a tennis player: get stronger and watch your game improve. Even in sports not usually associated with strength display, the stronger athletes are the better athletes. You may not like it because it makes your carefully cultivated Bosu-ball and wobbleboard “functional” training skill set less valuable, but any athlete that trains a simple barbell strength program and improves his squat, press, and deadlift will become better at his sport than you can make him with alternate 3 lb. dumbbell seated Swiss-ball presses."

Next week we will start another strength cycle! Please try to remember to write down,black berry yourself, email or whatever the numbers you push, pull etc in the next few weeks. Happy WEEKEND!

In a few days, I will post some video and some new literature under the "travel wod and nutrition" link. I have fielded a TON of questions about nutrition lately. I answered all of the questions as honestly and diligently as I could. I have put in a ton of work the past few years educating myself on what to eat and when to eat it. I helped Paula lose over 10% of her body weight. I encouraged JP when he was stuck at a certain number on the scale. Personally, I have lost 30lbs by doing CrossFit wods and eating correctly... So what's the secret?

Scenario

Steve: How was your diet today?

Client: I was running late this morning and didn't have time to make breakfast and I also forgot my mid morning snack.

Solution:

The client response makes me doubt how much you really want to lose weight/be healthy. I don't mean to be rude but... Are you lazy? I spend a lot of time trying to help clients and sometimes all I get is, "Its too hard, I don't like that food, I don't have time, That's way too much food..." Boo Hoo... if it were easy everyone would be ripped, skinny, healthy, active, jacked, FEF'ed etc... If you want to reach your goals and be ______ (fill in the blank), listen to what we preach, and ACT on it. Stop setting up road blocks for yourself. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink...

HOW BAD DO YOU WANT IT?
