Hi there

Let’s talk supplements. Quite a few of my clients have approached me on the subject of supplements as in weight loss supplements, not vitamin supplements. I have no problem with vitamin or calcium, iron supplements stuff like that. I absolutely have no problem with these supplements as some people have a hard time getting all the nutrients they need to get in a day.

Although I still believe with proper diet, exercise and some daylight hours(as in the sun) you can get all you need. But this is not what I’m talking about here today. I’m talking about weight loss products such as metabolism boosters and hunger suppressors in the form of a pill. This will do nothing but wreak havoc on your internal system and screw with your metabolism.

The best way to speed up your metabolism is lift weights, walk daily and include some weekly cardio sessions and I know you guys already know this because we as personal trainers and fitness professionals have been telling you this for years. So please listen now do not I repeat do not turn to a pill or a shake to get you to your weight loss goals. Yes you need to put in hard work and yes it may be a more gradual journey BUT you will be healthier and will keep the weight off for longer most of the time forever.

And in my future post I will be talking about stupid fad diets that just don’t work so stay tuned…….

Work hard and play hard. Good motto to have.
