  The first question you need to ask yourself is what did you have for breakfast today. Most people who can’t gain weight supposedly “no matter how hard they try” either have a bird breakfast or no breakfast at all. If you are trying to gain muscular weight, aside from training hard doing the big basic lifts, you must eat a big breakfast everyday, no ifs and buts, no excuses. If you don’t you’re doomed to fail. No amount of supplements, pills, and powders, can make up for proper nutrition.

  Max Power

  Getting rid of excess fat is necessary if you want to reduce your health risks such as obesity and cardiovascular diseases. To effectively lose weight and burn fat, you’ll have to restrict your calorie intake, eat more meals (more in terms of frequency but in small portions), increase physical activity, engage in high intensity cardio training, and stay on track with a proven strength training and weight loss program.

  How much water should I drink a day?

  1 Answer(s)

  0

  Max Power

  Aside from fighting dehydration, water is crucial for all bodily processes such as detoxification and for energy production. The general guideline and healthy recommendation is to drink at least two liters a day. Our bodies after all are 75% water. This guideline may vary depending on variables such as size, weather, and level of activity of the person. The bigger you are, the more you should drink. Also, the weather plays a huge factor as to the amount of water that should be consumed. On hot days, drink more. Obviously if you sweat a lot from exercise and an active lifestyle you’re bound to lose a lot of water, so you have to drink more as well to replenish what you’ve lost.

  My abs are not showing. Should I lower my bodyfat or I should work more on my abs?

  1 Answer(s)

  0

  Max Power

  No amount of ab work can force your abs to show if it remains covered by a thick layer of fat. To be able to flaunt your abs, you’ll have to lose the spare tire first by lowering your bodyfat, there’s just no getting around it. Abs get stronger through abdominal exercise, but to be able to show them off you’ll have to pay your dues in the kitchen as well. No amount of cardio and ab isolation exercise would give you that much coveted six pack if your diet is junk. Eat a healthy and balanced diet, do some serious strength training, and step up your cardio so you can showcase a strong midsection, instead of just using it as a centerpiece of fat storage.

  What's the best advice you can give to someone looking to lose fat while maintaining/building muscle?

  1 Answer(s)

  0

  Max Power

  You really can’t do both at the same time unless you’re using performance enhancing drugs, so to make the most out of your training separate your goals and prioritize which one you want to accomplish first. If you are overweight, focus on fat loss and once you’ve reached your target weight, do some serious strength training to build your muscles. Don’t starve yourself or else your body will go into starvation mode and store more fat. Do your cardio either after lifting weights or first thing in the morning before even eating anything to trigger your body to use your fat deposits as fuel. Clean up your diet as well, and eat complex carbs and lots of fruits and vegetables. Avoid processed foods and eat whole foods instead, and drink lots of water.

  I heard I should eat several meals a day. What do you think?

  1 Answer(s)

  0

  Max Power

  Breaking down your meals into smaller portions and eating after very couple of hours is a good strategy to train your body that it has sufficient food supply. By eating small, healthy meals instead of large portions, your metabolic rate kicks into high gear because the body realizes you are not anywhere near starvation mode, a condition in which your body stores as much fat as possible because of extreme dieting. To ensure your meals are complete, it should have around 30-40% animal protein, 30-40% carbohydrate, and 10-20% fat. If you have to eat before training, make sure you consume it at least 30-60 minutes prior to your workout.

  If I exercise, does this mean I can eat whatever I want without getting fat?

  1 Answer(s)

  0

  Max Power

  This is a myth and is a common excuse a lot of people use to go to all-you-can-eat restaurants. You can’t expect to gain the full training effects and benefits of an exercise program without a sound nutrition program. If you don’t want to gain weight, then don’t eat more than what you can use or burn. If you can’t control your appetite, make sure the food you eat will not contribute to any unwanted weight gain. Add more fruits and vegetables in your diet, eat only the lean portions of meat, and steer clear high-sugar and processed food products.

  How can women get sexy abs?

  1 Answer(s)

  0

  Max Power

  Most women have this problem right around the swimsuit season. That’s the problem right there: you can’t get sexy abs after only working on it for a short time. While most think getting sexy abs can be achieved with hundred of crunches, the reality is it can only do so much. By doing crunches, you are strengthening the abdominal muscles. But as long as there’s a layer of fat above it, you’ll never see a sculpted midsection. To reduce body fat, your workout should have cardio, strength, and flexibility exercises, on top of a balanced and healthy diet.

  How can I be healthier in just a few months?

  1 Answer(s)

  Max Power

  To dramatically improve your fitness level, you have to be willing to make some lifestyle changes. Eat more than 5 servings of fruits and vegetables per day, and cut back or better yet cut out simple sugars from your diet. If you drink and smoke, quit as soon as possible, and get your cholesterol checked by eating whole grains and oatmeal everyday. Reduce stress by exercising regularly, take a good multivitamin, and eat smaller meals more frequently to improve your metabolism. This may take a while, but if you stick to it not only will you revamp your body, you will also reduce your risk of life-threatening diseases.

  Does coffee and caffeine hinder weight loss?

  1 Answer(s)

  0

  Max Power

  Yes. Caffeine found in coffee and some sodas makes you insulin resistant, a trait common in overweight people. Aside from this, consuming beverages with caffeine, even those labeled decaffeinated, makes you crave more as it increases appetite. Thus, if you are trying to lose weight, it would be best to avoid caffeine.
