A man can be robbed of his self-confidence when he gets really motivated to succeed and uses a mentor or a coach to help him. He invests a lot of time, focus, and effort into reaching his goal with this mentor--only fall far short of his goals. What makes this situation even worse is when a man believes that he's done everything EXACTLY as his mentor has instructed him to do.

In this video, Skip La Cour explains why that's usually not what's really going no matter how good that student's intentions are.

You don't have to lose all the muscle you've worked so hard to earn just because you are dieting to lose body fat. In this video, Skip La Cour talks about the mindset you must adopt and actions you must take in order to do so.

Skip La Cour gives you the answer you need to know to the question, "What Are The Best Bodybuilding Supplements Will Help Me Build Muscle and Lose Fat The Fastest?"

In this video, your coach Skip La Cour outlines some things for you to focus on when doing Mass Machine Training Curl Bar Curls for biceps.

The cardiovascular training machine may read that you've burned so many calories during your session (in terms of exercise)--but you can't directly compare that reading to how many calories (in terms of food) you can and cannot eat.

Although both the cardio machine and your food counts both use "calories," this is not the most effective way to determine if you've created a caloric deficit for the day for a couple of reasons:

First of all, the cardio machine is using "calories" as way to help you measure how much effort you put forth during you session. It's a great way for you to compare how much effort you put into your session versus your previous sessions. These "calories" aren't a direct comparison to the number of calories you are getting from your food in the form of protein, carbohydrates, and fats. So, if you think you can eat 300 more "calories" just because the cardio machine estimated that you "burned" 300 calories, you are going to have a challenge.

Another point that you need to consider is that, if you were to burn 300 "calories" every single cardiovascular training session for the next, let's use as an example, 30 sessions, your body would certainly adapt. Whatever the number of calories that you are really burning in session #1 would be significantly less in session #30 because your body would adapt. That's why it is so important for you increase your intensity during every cardio session.

You also must understand that your "maintenance level" is merely an estimate too. Trying to create a precise formula to establish a caloric deficit with one solid form of measurement (the calories in your food) and two mere estimates (the calories burned reading from a cardio machine and your estimated maintenance level) is not the exact science that many people believe.

This is why you shouldn't rely too much on cardiovascular training and too little on your good, consistent eating habits when trying to lose body fat.

In this video, Skip La Cour discusses these important points that must be considered when you are trying to lose body fat.

Doing more and even more intense cardiovascular training is considered by many people to be the best way to lose body fat. In fact, the very first thing that many people do when trying to lose body fat is to pay more attention to cardiovascular training.

There's no doubt that cardiovascular training plays its part in the fat loss process. Burning more calories than you eat each day and creating that very important caloric deficit will be bolstered with a consistent cardio training program.

Cardiovascular training makes you feel productive because you can measure the amount of time and effort you invest in it and the amount of sweat that pours off of your body.

What many people fail to realize is that cardiovascular training is one only part of the equation. They oftentimes put far too much importance on cardio and the part in plays in the fat loss process.

When you want to lose body fat, your diet is significantly more important than cardiovascular training. That calorie deficit can be created more effectively and efficiently through better eating habits than by doing more cardio.

In this video, Skip La Cour discusses these important points that must be considered when you are trying to lose body fat.

If you want to lose body fat, bulk, or cut after you bulk, the FOUNDATION of your plan-of-attack is based upon your "maintenance level." That's the daily caloric intake that you will either add to, subtract from, and aim for each day depending on your goals.

Some people get extremely detailed and specific about the exact number of calories they must eat every day to build muscle or lose body fat but their extremely important foundation--their maintenance level--is built upon a mere "GUESSTIMATE" created by averages generated by a formula they got from the internet.

In this video, Skip La Cour explains why you must start with that number and then, through consistent execution over a period time, determine your TRUE maintenance level that is specific to your personal conditions.

It can be really frustrating when you are getting results--but you are constantly told you are "doing it wrong." You should always be looking for more effective and efficient strategies--as long as you don't get so distracted that you don't commit to and follow through with any single plan.

No one who has mastered their bodybuilding and training efforts started out only using the "best" strategies. Everyone who has gone before you has had to go through some experimentation. One of the keys to their success is they persevered and eventually found the ones that work best for them. Your journey will be no different.

If your current training or eating strategy is working for you, execute it with confidence for a predetermined period of time. You will learn a lot through the process if you follow through. With the insight that you've gained through practical experience, you will have the ability to make wise decisions and adjustments later if needed.
