Next time you go to the mall or shopping, take a look at the people around you. Look at their physiques, the people at your work, the people next to you on the bus/train, the people at the drug store and the local fast food joint. What is the average body type these days? Do people look like Rambo? or do they look like the fatties on Wall-E? Well, unless you train hard like Rambo, or physical exercise is part of your communities lifestyle, the standard then you'll see is to be overweight.

Building Muscle Tips - Strip That Fat From Your Body and Reveal Your Muscles Today!

So You're ready to strip that fat? OK, here's how it's done:

Strip The Fat Step 1. LIft Weights Don't worry, you wont become muscle bound overnight. It takes years of bodybuilding to get big like those guys. The cool thing is though, that muscles burn energy faster than any other cells in your body. So lift weights, and your body will burn more fat. Simple. Workout every couple of days and you'll notice the difference.

Step 2. Don't do aerobic exercise. Yep, you heard me DON'T do it. You've got to be mad right? Everyone says do aerobic exercise so you'll burn fat, so it must be true. Nope. Well, it is, sort of. But it's not the most effective way so lets get to it.

So How Do We Train? What we've got to do is speed up the body's metabolism so it burns more fat, and faster, like stoking a furnace! We can do this by doing short (15 minute) but intense workouts. It's just like going for a long jog, but it takes less time. That's convenient isn't it!

Here's how it works:

HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training), or Interval Training is a training session divided into 2 parts. One intense, and the other less intense.

Here's an example of interval training:

# Stretches

# 5 min warmup

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 1 min walk/jog

# 20 second sprint

# 5 min cooldown

# Stretches

The beautiful thing about this kind of training is that you'll speed up your metabolism so much that you'll be burning calories for days! And it only takes 15 minutes! It's seriously the BEST way to strip that fat from your body with the least amount of work.

already working out 3 days a week? Good for you. Just do this interval training on your OFF days so you don't overtrain. Your body does not know how to burn fat and build muscle all at once. So swap between the weight training and interval workouts so you can get the best out of both worlds. Take a day off once a week so your body can recover.

Is that it? Nope one last thing:

Building Muscle Tips - Step 3. Eat Your Vegetables!

I'm not going to get into the whole calorie argument and talk about how confusing it is to have to read all the food labels. Let's just be serious for a second. If you want to get the fat from your body it's not going to happen eating burgers and fries. You know it. So what do you eat? Well, your best option is to eat food that's got plenty of nutritional value and helps keep your body and metabolism moving. What's the best food to do that? Fruit and vegetables.

Yeah, it's a bummer eh. You've been hearing it since you were a kid. "Eat Your Vegetables!" Turns out your parents were right eh. Well, I'm not about to tell em so don't worry!

If you're feeling a little uncomfortable and you're not in a major hurry, then adjust to adding more fruits and vegetables to your diet while cutting out the heavy carbohydrates like fries and burgers and that morning muffin with your coffee etc.

As you start to see results you'll become more motivated to change your diet. But trust me, if you

1. Start doing weights workouts

2. Do Interval Training to burn fat

3. Replace Junk Food With Fruit and Vegetables

Your body will thank you for it!
