Get Lean Quick 14 Day Fat Loss Kit

I finished my two week "Get Lean Quick" program. My first week I 
lost 15 lbs, second week 10 lbs, a total 25 lb loss. I was 220 
lbs and went to 195 lbs, I am 58 yrs 5' 10" tall. The program was 
very easy to follow, and I did not have to starve myself. Thanks 
for your help and guidance, you have always taken the time to 
answer all my emails. I will continue to keep the fat off. This 
program has taught me important info on nutrition and exercise.

Thank you!
 
Regards,
Mike G.

Slow vs Fast Fat Loss
Why you SHOULD lose fat fast...NOT slow...

Losing fat is a much debated topic and there are many people who
believe that any rapid weight-loss is going to be unhealthy, but if
fast fat-loss is done correctly, it'll be far superior to any "slow
cutting". The folks who believe "slow and steady" is required for any
sustainable fat-loss, should consider an alternative.

The problem is that when you lose fat too slowly it's not optimal 
either. If we go over a few "selling points" of doing the slow cut it
will be maintaining your maximum lean muscle mass, eating more on a
daily basis, and doing less cardio. The argument for doing a fast cut
and losing fat quickly starts with the longer you're on a calorie 
deficit the slower your metabolism goes.

Your body is designed to achieve homeostasis, which it does by 
"metabolic adaptation", which means your metabolism is able to adapt
to the amount of the energy it gets. It is constantly trying to 
balance the energy intake with your energy output – to achieve 
homeostasis.

When your energy output is more than your energy input (calorie 
deficit) you'll lose body-fat but your metabolism will slow down too,
which means you're burning less energy. The longer this calorie or 
energy deficit continues the slower your metabolism gets.

The argument for fast fat-loss says that when you lose fat slowly 
you're trapping yourself because the less you eat the less you going
to need to eat to continue losing fat only. If your metabolism is 
slowing down with every pound of fat that is lost it means that you 
have to continue eating less calories to maintain that fat-loss.

The problem with any slow cutting process becomes obvious: the longer
you are cutting, the longer you'll fail to build any real muscle. 
When you remain on a mild calorie deficit for fat-loss for too long 
you lose too much muscle. To keep gaining muscle you need to spend as
short a time as possible on a calorie deficit because your workouts 
get harder, hunger cravings get worse, so that you're only relying on
your will power to continue, leaving you physically and mentally 
completely fatigued.

Yes, eating a calorie deficit will always accelerate muscle loss, 
which is why "crash diets" are unhealthy. But how large does a 
deficit have to be before it's is too large? This question was 
examined in a study done at the University of Jyväskylä in Finland.

They studied groups of 20 to 35-year-old track sprinters and jumpers
which they separated into 2 groups, each group already having less 
than 10% body-fat. The one group ate a daily calorie deficit of 300 
calories (or 12% below their total daily energy expenditure) and the 
other group ate a daily calorie deficit of 750 calories, both groups
following a strict high-protein diet.

After the first 4 weeks, the results were shocking: the athletes 
using the 300-calorie deficit lost very little muscle and very little
fat while the group that ate a 750-calorie deficit lost around 4 
pounds of fat with very little muscle loss. The 750-calorie deficit 
group were not starving themselves, they were eating well over 2,000 
calories every day. Nevertheless, utilizing a very aggressive deficit
of around 24% they showed very good results.
