It is obvious that people have become very confused about how to go about burning fat.
They are receiving conflicting information and hearing unproven claims from different sources, all claiming to be the one and only truth.
They do not know who to believe and are confused about what works, what doesn't work, and the reasons why.
There are hordes of health enthusiasts spending their precious time and energy at the health club, or engaged in fitness related activity.
Some like the outdoors and prefer jogging, running, or walking.
Others focus on their indoor routine of pumping iron, using the elliptical, treadmill, stair-climber, stationery bike, or working through a circuit routine.
They want to burn fat, to build muscle, to feel better and to look better.
It is hard work but the goal of looking good is strong motivation.
Does that ring a bell? These folks may also be involved with a fitness or diet guru who has them augmenting their exercise program with magical diet pills and nutritional supplements.
Eating special foods and ordering miracle supplements can get expensive.
In their quest to burn fat and lose weight, many of these people will be monitoring their weight on a daily basis.
It is funny, but some will probably check their weight two or three times a day to see if they are making progress.
And what do you think happens if their weight happens to increase by a pound or two? For many, that's unacceptable and the program or diet will be ditched in favor of another.
But it's easy to go overboard when presented with a trendy diet or exercise plan that promises to get rid of our unwanted fat.
We quickly forget that true weight loss will take a bit of time.
Dropping a few pounds only to see them come right back is no solution at all.
It is the principles of health and fitness that many people don't know and only a select few apply to their lives that are the answer.
When put to use, these principles enable people to drop pounds of body fat, get their weight under control and keep it down, and gain extra energy and health in the process.
Here are a few basic facts you need to know...
With most legitimate nutrition programs or exercise plans, you'll probably be able to lose some fat initially.
The problem is keeping the weight loss trend going for week after week, or month after month.
Too often, progress slows and you'll start to think that it's not working any more.
That can lead some people to quit the program and try something else.
Of course, the cycle repeats and can end up with people quitting all efforts to lose weight or get healthy.
I'm convinced that a huge reason why most people are not achieving their weight loss and fitness goals is their failure to commit to a program long enough to get meaningful results.
And as part of that, they are marginalizing their results by following incorrect plans.
To spell it out, most people exercise too long without sufficient intensity to burn their fat, and follow unrealistic diet recommendations that make them irritable and therefore unable to accept the diet as a lifestyle change.
If people would focus on their fat burning and weight loss goals as long terms goals then it would be easier for them to do the right things to get there.
And those right things would include a workout program that features brief yet intense resistance exercises, a diet of nutritious food while staying away from the junk food, drinking lots of water every day, and getting plenty of rest and sleep to feel your best.
Those people familiar with the Fat Burning Furnace method of learned exactly what they need to do, and when they apply these methods they reap the health and fitness benefits that they desire.
