Can you increase your metabolism? The answer is ye Can you increase your metabolism? The answer is yes, but it’s important to mention that it’s not going to help with weight loss unless you’re controlling your nutritional intake. Here’s 3 ways you can boost your metabolism: 1. Lift weights (which you should be doing anyway). The process of incorporating amino acids into new muscle tissue costs energy which can come from the breakdown of fat molecules. 2. Do high intensity interval training (HIIT). Not only will you burn calories during the workout, but for a significant amount of time after the workout is done. 3. Take a supplement called Capsaicin. This is the ingredient that gives chili peppers their heat. Not only does it help raise metabolism but it probably improves blood flow as well. Questions about weight loss and fitness?

Italian Seasoning ⠀ 1 tsp. Red Pepper Flakes ⠀ ⠀ Method: ⠀ Preheat oven to 400. Heat a nonstick pan until hot and add the olive oil. Place chicken and onions in pan and cook until the chicken is no longer pink. Cook mushrooms in a separate nonstick pan and cook until tender. Drain mushrooms and mix with chicken and onion. Add salt and Italian seasoning. Take a bell pepper half and place half of a slice of cheese in the bottom of the pepper. Repeat with the rest of the pepper halves. Divide the chicken mixture evenly between the six pepper halves and place on a cookie sheet. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove peppers from oven and top with the other half of the cheese slice. Return to over and bake an additional 10 minutes or until cheese has melted. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes if you like a little kick. Enjoy! ⠀ ⠀ Serving Size: 1 whole pepper (2 halves) - Calories: 348, Protein: 57g, Fat: 11g, Carb: 10g
What is the most effective muscle building workout What is the most effective muscle building workout? There is no single best workout for everyone. However the most effective routines share certain attributes so you should make sure that these 3 points are included in your routine: #1 Your workout trains both type 1 and type 2 muscle fibers which are necessary for complete development. #2 Your workout takes advantage of the three major ways that muscles grow by: A. Increasing mechanical tension. B. Metabolic stress C. Muscular damage #3 To ensure your workout is as effective as it can be you train through different set and rep ranges.

What is the best workout to get ripped fast? The m What is the best workout to get ripped fast? The most effective routines to rapidly burn body fat while maintaining or even building muscle involve intense strength training with rest periods short enough to create a cardio component. While you certainly can do weights and cardio separately, from a time management perspective it makes sense to put them together. For this purpose I like ascending rep circuits which I was introduced to by strength coach, Christian Thibaudeau @christian.thibaudeau.thibarmy. You pick an exercise for chest, back, shoulders, quads and hamstrings and you perform them as a circuit shooting for 5 reps each and then rest for 90 seconds. Then you do another circuit but with 6 reps, then rest for 90 seconds. On the third circuit you shoot for 7 reps etc. If you fail to meet the target reps for that circuit you simply eliminate that exercise for the next circuit until you’re left with 1 and then no exercises. At that point you’re done with your workout. Try this 3 times a week and see how you do. Questions about weight loss and fitness? Reach out to me or my staff, we’re here to help. – Dr. Charlie
Happy Friday! Are you a snacker? Do you run into t Happy Friday! Are you a snacker? Do you run into the problem where you eat the majority of your calories during the day and have little left for dinner? Our Fitness Nutrition Specialist Nicole shared her “Timed Eating” schedule for this post because she loves to snack, but also enjoys cooking and eating dinner with her husband which is often in the late evening. She puts this schedule right on the wall at her desk so she can look up at any time and see when she can eat. She says, “knowing there’s a set time for me to eat helps me not to over snack throughout the day.” She also tries to eat lunch as late as possible. She’s down 2 lbs. and feels more at ease knowing how her macros will be spread out throughout the day. Questions about weight loss and fitness?

Here’s a before and after of my rock star patien Here’s a before and after of my rock star patient BW. Over the course of 1 ½ years he lost 140 lbs. and has kept it off. Additionally he has transformed his body by consistently hitting the weights using progressive overload resistance training programs I created just for him using the equipment he has in his house. At 47 the man is a MACHINE. I couldn’t be happier with his continued success. Questions about weight loss and fitness? Reach out to me or my staff. We’re here to help. -Dr. Charlie
Which is better for weight loss? Cardio or weight Which is better for weight loss? Cardio or weight lifting? The answer is BOTH, but only if you’re keeping rack of your caloric intake. If you just exercise you’ll subconsciously move less and eat more throughout the day which will offset the calories you spent exercising and if you overshoot on the food intake you might actually gain weight. However assuming your weight is stable if you keep your caloric intake constant AND add exercise AND make sure you’re active throughout the rest of day it should increase the rate of your weight loss. A proper fat burning exercise program should include both cardio and weight training each of which has unique benefits. If you want me to break down an effective fat burning routine reply FAT BURNING in the comments section of this post. Questions about weight loss and fitness?
