Ok, this spice that I’m going to mention is one of the most overlooked, but healthiest spices in the world…

You might even call it a “fat burning spice”… in a roundabout way.

And yes, it can actually help you win the battle against abdominal fat if you use it daily…I’ll explain why.

Here are some other benefits of this miracle spice:

*controls blood sugar levels
*helps maintain insulin sensitivity
*a very powerful antioxidant
*may have antibacterial and antifungal properties
*and dozens of other benefits

So what is this miracle spice?

Well… it’s good old tasty Cinnamon!

Although cinnamon does not directly increase fat burning (such as by increasing metabolic rate, etc),
it CAN actually help you to burn off abdominal fat and get leaner through an indirect link.

Here’s how…

Although cinnamon has dozens of health benefits, the main benefit that will help you to get leaner is through it’s strong effect on controlling blood sugar levels in your body.

In a study published in 2003 in the medical journal Diabetes Care, groups were split into people taking 1, 3,
or 6 grams of cinnamon per day in capsule form (the equivalent of approx 1/4th to 1 teaspoon of cinnamon).

The results of the study showed that all 3 amounts of cinnamon reduced fasting blood glucose levels by 18-29% after 40 days.

Cinnamon can also increase insulin sensitivity, which essentially means that it is helping your body to control blood sugar while simultaneously allowing your body to produce less insulin.

As you know, chronically high insulin levels can make your body pack on the blubber.

How to harness this to lose more fat…

One possible way to benefit from cinnamon to lose more fat is to use cinnamon daily in your meals
when you can, such as in yogurt or cottage cheese, in smoothies, oatmeal, or anything else you
can think of where it would go well.

Also, you could use a cinnamon capsule before each of your meals.

This could help to control blood sugar and insulin response from your meals and thereby control
your appetite and cravings throughout the day… hence, helping you to lose body fat more
effectively over time.

So now you can see that not only is cinnamon a powerful antioxidant that can help you stay
youthful longer, it can also help you to control blood sugar and get a leaner body!

Note: please make sure to consult your doctor before adding any new foods or spices to your
nutrition plan if you are taking any medications or have food allergies.

They didn’t like this article too much.

But if you know the TRUTH about cardio, and I know you do, then
you’ll find these 5 reasons why cardio is lame to be right on the
money.
“Cardio” is the “Economic Stimulus Bill” of the fitness world. You can put your hopes in it, but generally it isn’t going to do anything for you, and it will just waste your time and resources.

Most people don’t realize that there was “life before cardio”. People used to exercise outdoors. They participated in sports. They played games – outside! – with their family and friends. They used their feet or bicycles for transportation (rather than driving 15 minutes to the gym to go do “cardio”).

So here are the top 5 reasons why I think the term “cardio” is lame.

1) People hate doing cardio.

Have you ever met a person who smiled when they said, “Oh, I have to go do cardio now.” (That’s not the same as the excitement an endurance athlete gets when they go “training”. That’s different from “cardio”. Endurance athletes don’t call their workouts, “cardio”.)

NOTE:
So if you are a runner, and you love to run, and you tell me (with a smile), “I’m going out for a run”, then that’s cool by me. Nothing wrong with that. But if don’t like to run, and you tell me (with a pout), “I’m going out for a run because I have to get my cardio”, then I say, “Boooooo to that”. Life’s to short to hate your workouts!

2) People mistakingly believe that 30 minutes of half-assed cardio (which is what most people do) will help them lose weight.

But it won’t. It just wastes their time. People are obsessed with the calorie counters on machines. I truly believe this is how folks get hooked and obsessive compulsive with cardio…because all they can think about is how many calories they have burned, and how much food that means they can eat.

“Cardio” does not promote healthy relationships with food.

3) People think you have to “cardio” (i.e. go to a gym and exercise on a machine that doesn’t go anywhere) for 30 minutes in order to be healthy.

You don’t have to do “cardio” to be healthy. There is so much more to health than 30 minutes of “cardio”. Your diet is more important for your cardiovascular health than your exercise regime. Plus, as long as you’re active each day (doing manual labor, “cardio”, playing sports, or lifting weights), you’re doing enough to meet the minimum required amount of exercise for cardiovascular health.

4) People think “cardio” will help them with sports performance or their short, burst fitness (like climbing stairs).

It rarely does.

In fact, the guy who does “cardio” in preparation for his basketball, soccer, hockey, or Ultimate Frisbee league is going to be sorely disappointed by how slow he is – and by how he lacks sports-specific fitness as much as all the guys who just lifted weights all off-season. Plus, doing traditional “machine cardio” does not prepare you for sports-specific movements or speed of movement, so you’re just as likely – if not more likely – to get injured during the early season.

5) It signifys a waste of time, inefficiency, and a sheep-like mentality towards doing something just because everyone else is doing it.

Seriously, if you were from another planet and you came down to earth and went into a big commercial gym and look at the “cardio” section, pardon me, the “cardio theater” section, you’d smile to yourself and say, “wow, this planet is going to e easy picken’s”.

“Cardio” is also lame because people use cardio as a time to catch up on their magazine reading and TV watching (and now Internet and email time). That about says it all. Workout time is not multi-task time.

So what should you be doing instead if you want to sculpt your body, burn fat, lose your belly, and get lean before summer?

You should skip the “cardio” (let’s not ever use that phrase again) and focus on total-body, multi-muscle resistance training and interval training exercises to help you build “everyday” strength and fitness (like the ability to carry groceries or children, or climb 3 flights of stairs as fast as possible).

Plus, with these total body workouts, you’ll save time and get more health benefits than you will with straight “cardio”. (Sorry to use that term again.)

Helping you get more results while saving time and money,
