QUESTION:
I'm 30 years old and have lost 68 pounds. I think you have done an amazing job with your weight loss and by providing help to others interested in losing weight too.
I would like to know if you use any type of fat burner when hitting the gym. I've heard they help you lose waist line fat much quicker.
ANSWER: I have never used a fat burner in order to lose weight. Although i have taken 1 pill from one company and 2 from another in order to simply find out how they affect the body. Since I have never used them for their intended purpose I honestly cannot tell you which would be good or safe.
The biggest problem with fat burners is that they can be extremely dangerous if they are used improperly or used with another supplement. It is true however that they can be very safe and very useful for fat loss. If you do decide to use a fat burner I suggest going to bodybuilding.com ( this is where I buy all my supplements and they are cheaper than most other websites and much cheaper than stores) and finding the most used, reviewed, and best fat burner. From there I would do some research about it in order to find out if there are any side effects to using it. The best way to take a fat burner is by doing your homework on it and using it as it is intended; that being in dosage, and combination with a good diet and exercise program.

Hey man..I wanted to ask whether weightlifting helps to lose fat or only gain muscle?Will weightlifting effect our height if i am now only 16 years old..
ReplyDeleteWeightliftng will help you gain muscle. Muscle burns more calories than fat, so you'll also burn more calories then. I don't think it should affect your height. Check on that with your doctor.
