Mcdonalds Burgers Nutrition Facts

I really love eating at Mcdonalds, the sad reality is that for anyone who is on a diet, trying to lose weight or thinking about fat loss, its the last place in the world you should be going to eat. In a series of posts I’m going to be listing out the nutrition facts and calorie content of the food at Mcdonalds. This is to either help you factor in how much damage a meal you’ve had their has done to your calorie intake for the day or act as a deterrent to eating from there (this is what i use it for). Since the menu is so big I’ll be breaking it down and todays post is all about the calories in Mcdonalds burgers and sandwiches.

This is the Daniel Craig workout done for the James Bond movie Casino Royale, I wanted to put the workout for Quantum of Solace as well but unfortunately there have been no details out in interviews or anything like that. The only thing we know is that after Casino Royale Daniel Craig basically slacked off and stopped working out and had to do it all over again for the new movie. [Read more...]

The Importance Of A Healthy Breakfast

From the time i can remember i was always told to have a good breakfast and that it was important. Whoever told me that was right, It is the most important meal and sets you up for the rest of the day. Some bad choices here and have a lasting impact on your day and your overall health. Studies show that out of all the meals of that day, breakfast is the one that is neglected the most.What is the importance of a healthy breakfast? What should you be eating and drinking?

The Brad Pitt Fight Club Workout

I remember watching Fight Club and thinking wow when i saw Brad Pitt’s absolutely ripped body. I don’t think there’s anyone i know right now who wouldn’t want that kind of a body. It’s ripped and he’s got almost the perfect size, not too big and not too small. From what I hear he had a 4% body fat percentage which is an absolute killer to acheive.

Now the only real way to get that kind of physique is to count the calories in your food and make sure you dont exceed your basal metabolic rate. Meaning you must not consume more energy than your body needs to function on a basic level. You couple that with this workout and you will gain muscle and lose that body fat. This is something along the lines of what P90X would give you if you stuck to the program and its diet perfectly. Anyway here’s the brad pitt workout from fight club:

FIVE TIMES A WEEK: Cardio

Brad did cardio five times a week for 30 mins, monday to friday. He did this as he woke up in the morning before he ate anything. The theory behind this is that as you wake up, your bodies’ glycogen stores are low and by working out in the morning you will be getting rid of the remainder of your glycogen without adding to it with food. Glycogen is what becomes fat when excess amounts of it are stored in your liver and muscles.

EXERY OTHER DAY: Core

Clearly you need to workout that core. The brad pitt fight club workout would not be complete without some serious core work. Here’s what you need to do:

Hanging leg raise: Grab hold of a pull-up bar. Once you have a good grasp, slowly bring your knees up to your chest, and then lower them back down. The slower and more controlled the movement, the greater the benefit. This exercise will also target your rectus abdominis, as well as your hip flexors.

Standing cable oblique twist: Get on the cable crossover machine. With your arms straight, hold the handle in front of your chest. While looking straight ahead, contract your abdominals and slowly turn your torso to the right, making sure to not pull with your arms, but to feel the work in your obliques. Release and repeat on the opposite side.

DAY1: Chest, Shoulders & Back

Incline dumbbell press: Sit down on an incline bench with the dumbbells resting on your lower thighs. Kick the weights to your shoulders and lean back. Position the dumbbells to the sides of your upper chest with your elbows under the dumbbells. Press the dumbbells up with your elbows to the sides until your arms are extended. Lower the weights to the sides of your upper chest. Do 15 reps and immediately move on to the next exercise.

Seated pec dec flye: Sit in an upright position on a pec dec machine. Position the pads so that your upper arms are parallel to the floor. Keep your abs tight and your shoulders back. Using your chest strength, bring the pads together and squeeze. If the machine has pads, do not let your elbows flare off of them; this is a sign that you’re using more than your chest to move the weight. Slowly return to the starting position. Perform 15 reps in a controlled, continuous motion. Rest for 60 seconds and repeat both exercises back to back.

Dumbbell lateral raise: Grasp the dumbbells in front of your thighs. Bend over at the hips slightly with your knees bent. With your elbows slightly bent, raise your upper arms in front of you until your elbows and wrists are at shoulder height. Lower and repeat for 15 reps, then immediately perform the next exercise.

Reverse pec dec flye: Lower the seat a bit and sit facing the machine. You can use a straight or reverse grip; both work the rear shoulders in different angles. Adjust and grab the handles, then contract your rear deltoids and shoulder blades to bring the weight back. Visualize your shoulder blades pinching together throughout the movement. Once you have squeezed your shoulder blades together, return the handles to their initial position without letting the weights rest. Always keep the tension in your muscles. Do 15 reps, rest 60 seconds, and start the superset over with the dumbbell lateral raises. Do a total of two supersets.

Lat pulldown: Sit with your thighs under the supports and grasp the cable bar with a wide grip. Pull the cable bar to your upper chest. Release until your arms and shoulders are fully extended. Repeat, and after finishing your set, immediately perform the next exercise.

Seated row: Sit on the platform with your knees bent and grasp the cable attachment. Position your knees with a slight bend. Pull the cable attachment to your waist while straightening your lower back. Pull your shoulders back and push your chest forward during the contraction. Release until your arms are extended, your shoulders are stretched forward and your lower back is flexed forward. Do 15 reps, rest for 60 seconds and start over with the lat pulldowns. Do two of these supersets.

DAY2: Biceps & Tricep

Dumbell bicep curl: Position two dumbbells to your sides with palms facing in and arms straight. With your elbows at your sides, raise one dumbbell and rotate your forearm until it is vertical and your palm faces your shoulder. Lower to the original position and repeat with the opposite arm.Continue to alternate between sides for 15 reps, then move on to the next exercise right away.

Dumbell tricep kickback: Kneel over the bench with one arm supporting your body. Grasp a dumbbell. Position your upper arm parallel to floor. Extend your arm until it is straight. Return and repeat. Continue with the opposite arm. Rest for 60 seconds, and then start over with dumbbell bicep curls. Do three of these supersets.

DAY3: Legs

Hack squat: Lie supine on the back pad with your shoulders under the shoulder pad. Place your feet on the platform slightly higher than the base of the sled. Extend your hips and knees. Release the dock levers. Lower the sled until your knees are just short of complete flexion. Raise the sled back up by extending your knees and hips. Repeat for 10 reps, then move on to the next exercise.

Leg extension: Sit on the apparatus with your back against the padded back support. Place the front of your lower legsunder the padded lever. Position your knee articulations at the same axis as the lever fulcrum. Grasp the handles on the sides for support. Move the lever forward by extending your knees until your legs are straight. Return the lever to the original position by bending your knees. Repeat for 10 reps and go to the following exercise.

Prone hamstring curl: Lie prone (face down) on the machine and hook your legs underneath the pad; the pad rests on the back of the ankle, below the calf. Raise the weight until it feels comfortable while holding on to the hand grips. Lower and repeat for 10 reps. Rest for 60 seconds, and start over with the hack squat.  Do three of these sets.

This was his workout for a few months before the movie. Just remember that what worked for him might not work for you but if you want a basis to go on, this workout is it. I was surprised to find a lack of a specific ab workout but i guess the core workouts would have taken care of that. Also remember to keep to a strict diet or all your working out will be for nothing.

Here I am on Day 28 of P90X

Wow, I can’t believe I’ve been doing P90X for almost a month now. 28 days have gone and looking at the before and after pictures there seems to be quite a decent difference. I’ve been told to really look at the before and afters around the day 60 mark to notice some real differences. P90X is an awesome workout and unlike any other workouts I’ve tried, I still haven’t lost interest.

So now that the first month is over I go from Phase I to Phase II. Interestingly while Phase I is called the fat shredder from what I’ve heard most of the fat loss comes from Phase II even though we consume a little more carbs. In terms of absolute numbers, I’ve gone from 155 pounds to 153 pounds, a body fat percentage of 22% to 19% and a resting heart rate of 65. This is after just thirty days, imagine what the ninety day mark might do for me.

I’m doing Kenpo X today and that marks the end of week4 (which is called the recovery week) and tomorrow i start week 5. Exciting Stuff, I’ll let you know how it goes.

New Celebrity Workout Series

Due to some heavy demand I’ll be doing a series on celebrity workouts over the next few days. Right now I’ll focus on some of the more popular celebrities and then work my way backwards. My first couple of workouts will probably be Daniel Craig, Kim Kardashian and Nicole Sherzinger. From that point I’ll work my way back to the famous fight club Brad Pitt workout etc. 

My initial plan was to focus this week on what makes a good breakfast, why we need it and recipes for the different types of breakfast. But i got enough requests to do this so i’ve decided to do both. Should be fun.

Your Resting Heart Rate

12314513646nmQ23For those of you who do a lot of exercise, If you don’t do it already, you should constantly monitor your heart rate. Your resting heart rate is the amount of times your heart beats per minute. I have been measuring my heart rate for about a month now and since I have been working out more, my resting heart rate has gone from 73bpm to 67bpm. My target is to hit 60bpm in the next two months. The resting heart rate is used as an indicator of your level of fitness and compared against the table below you can know for your age group what level of fitness you have. [Read more...]

Healthy Breakfast Recipes

I can’t highlight the importance of breakfast enough if you are trying to lose weight or just have a healthy diet. A healthy Breakfast is by far the most important meal in the day and usually because of the rush of waking up (nobody likes to wake up early) and go to school, college or work, it’s usually ignored. Most people will have a bowl of cereal and juice or coffee and start the day. That really is not the way to do it. I’ve collected some healthy breakfast recipes from around the net and from some nutrition plans that workouts provide. If you are going to put some effort into a meal, breakfast should the most important one. [Read more...]

How to Lose Facial Fat

short-chin-hair4

short-chin-hair4Most of us want to lose either belly fat or just want lose fat overall, but i have got a lot of requests recently with people wanting how to lose fat in the face. This post will deal with what the realities are and i will even give you a few tips on what you can do.

I want to state from the beginning that spot reduction of fat (which is to lose fat in a specific area) through exercise or dieting or any means, is not possible. If we could target specific areas, fat loss would not be such a problem. Targeting thighs, a spare tire, flabby arms, or in this case a somewhat chubby face is not something we can do, so lets focus on what we can do.

Don’t be discouraged, the situations isn’t hopeless. How can we lose fat in the face? Here are some tips and tricks: [Read more...]

Tony Hortons 11 Laws of Fitness

I am a big fan of the P90X workout program and actually started doing the workout about 3 weeks ago. For those who don’t know the program it is an intense 6 day a week workout that lasts ninety days and has everything from weights for the major muscle groups to yoga and even a martial art like kenpo. One of the reasons that i like the workouts so much is that it embodies a level of intensity that forces you to step up and push yourself like never before. P90X was created by Tony Horton and these are his 11 laws of fitness. I read this list on Facebook and i had to share: [Read more...]
