I've been trying to lose weight for a long time now with not much success. A friend of mine suggested I start walking/ running while wearing a rubber suit and it'll help me burn calories faster. I recently came across your website and wanted to get your opinion on this?

................................................................................

 

Michael Collins: I'm sure your friend had the best of intentions, but he/ she is offering up some awful advice.

 

The rubber suits you see some misguided people wearing while working out do nothing more than make you sweat more. There's no fat loss benefits from wearing the rubber suit.

 

Wearing a rubber suit will not only make you look silly, but could actually have some very real consequences. Performing intense exercise in a rubber suit can cause dehydration, dizziness, heat exhaustion and heat stroke, and has been linked to a number of deaths (mainly due to dehydration and complications arising from dehydration). If you're not convinced, Google “rubber suit death”.

 

As far as having challenges losing weight, you've come to the right place. I suggest you read a few articles on the site, starting with the Foundations of Fat Loss series. This will give you some basic knowledge on how to lose weight effectively.
 

We've also written a thorough, fool proof weight loss plan that covers all the bases ( including the little known techniques and tricks only the insiders know). It's called Black Book of Secrets.

 

It's an instant download, meaning you'll have it within minutes. Any time we update the book, you get another complimentary copy. Head over and purchase it now. You'll be glad you did.

Get Thoroughly Acquainted with Your Food for the Best Weight Loss Results 

What do you think of that diet where you eat certain foods based on your blood type?

 

I’ve always been told to get a six- pack you need to do a lot of abs work with high reps. Would you agree?

 

Do I need supplements to lose weight?

 

Is it possible to lose weight and gain muscle at the same time?

 

I’ve got fat located in the area of my body where my arm meets my shoulder, and I can’t get rid of it.  Are there any exercises in particular that would help improve that? Or what about any spot reducing supplements?

 

I know I should be having some protein and carbs after a weights workout, but what about after cardio? I've heard that you should wait 2 hours before eating.

 

You mentioned the benefits of scheduling a "cheat meal" into your eating program at least once per week. Is there a best time to eat a cheat meal?

 

Should I be counting my grams of fat, sugar, and calories?

 

What can I do to flatten my lower abs? I've been doing crunches and hanging leg raises for the last year, but nothing seems to help.
