Don't mind the cheesy title, it's true.
I wrote an article about it that got published in "Real" magazine. For many of you that think walking cardio is a waste I actually went down to 6% bodyfat with walking cardio alone!
I was limited with a torn meniscus on my right knee, along with 2 herniated discs that gave me excruciating back pain.
My physician told me that could only do light walking for my exercise, so I was hell bent on getting ripped with just walking alone.
This is the conditioning that I achieved with walking alone.
This picture goes out to the non believers who think walking alone will do nothing. I'm not a big fan of running or other types of high intensity cardio, in fact I hate it with a desire.
On the other hand I could walk for miles and miles. A simple brisk walk outside or 3 miles an hour on a treadmill is all I do.
If you that think I got ripped because of my genetics, I have to remind you that my default look is
"fat boy"
Here's the evidence
Sometimes it's the fundamental things that bring the most results, meanwhile we are always searching for the esoteric, top secret fitness methods.
In fact, I have most of my clients simply walk outside or on a treadmill for their cardio and on average they lose 10 to 12 lbs a month!
It's all about the specfic training and nutrition protocol that makes my Life Fuel Fitness program super duper effective at getting you lean and toned as fast as possible!
Over the years I have helped hundreds of people transform themselves with the knowledge and experience that I learned through my own personal journey. I know first hand how difficult it is to burn fat!
I am blessed to make a living off of my passion and it feels great to help others improve their lives. I decided to put all of my life long work into to creating a system that transforms as many people as possible.
My main purpose in life is to help you look and feel your best without being a slave to the gym or starving yourself.
I want to help you feel full all day while losing weight. My goal is to show you the minimal effective dose of exercise thats gives you the maximum result.

I met AJ, my trainer (www.lifefuelfit.com), at my sister’s birthday party. AJ is a professional trainer and nutritionist that had also trained my sister. I had noticed how much weight my sister had lost and how toned up she had become, so I promised myself then and there that I would get myself to 225 lbs and as a prize would start working with AJ to drop more weight and get into better shape.
I had always wanted to hire and work with a personal trainer, but the financial burden was too much to take on in the past. As the years went by, my financial status improved and I realized the benefit of investing money into my own body and health would be far more beneficial than spending on frivolous and materialistic things.
On that note, I contacted AJ for consultation and a trial workout, but after the first session I was in love with AJ’s methods and knowledge and I realized he was worth the investment, as I was walking out of the gym a stronger and more motivated person. AJ not only trained me within the gym, he also gave me the information towards developing a healthy lifestyle.

One of the best ways to improve your body composition is by increasing lean muscle tone.
Each pound of muscle burns up 50 calories per day, so by adding muscle tone- you are essentially burning fat while doing nothing!
When it comes to increasing muscle tone resistance exercise is the absolute best!
It’s well-known that people who challenge their bodies with resistance exercises have more muscle than those that do cardio alone.
And, depending on the diet and other daily activities, these people often have less body fat.
Challenging resistance exercise improves your body composition by stimulating muscle protein synthesis pathways and enhancing fat oxidation (fat burning) for several hours after your exercise session is over.
Scientific studies have shown us that certain foods can enhance the amount of fat burned for energy several hours after the weight lifting session is over, and increase the amount of muscle synthesized.
Specifically, a high protein meal has been shown in many different scientific studies to increase muscle tone when consumed after any resistance exercise.
The best time to eat a high protein meal for this effect is 30 minutes after you workout.
Recently, researchers from Michigan State University showed that when a high protein meal was taken after an exercise session, resting energy expenditure (REE) was significantly elevated for 24 hours compared to a carbohydrate-only diet.
REE is an important measure of the amount of calories you burn in one day and accounts for about 60-75% of your total daily energy expenditure.
Thus, if you have a higher REE, you will burn more calories in the day and store less of them as body fat. Enjoy a high protein meal within 30 minutes after exercise for the best effect and watch those fat cells run away in fear.

“My workouts with AJ have exceeded my expectations. As a military veteran, I thought I new everything there was to know about fitness and nutrition. Though, after just one session with AJ, I realized that there was still much to learn. Whatever your fitness goals are, AJ will definitely deliver results.”
