How To Burn Fat Fast For Men





Ripped Freak Hybrid:

They’ve called Ripped Freak a hybrid fat burner because it acts in multiple ways. It works like a normal fat burner through thermogenesis – increasing your body temperature. It also contains ingredients that are supposed to support the more important fat burning hormones in the body and it supports HSL – the enzyme that helps to break down fat.




It also contains our three favorite stimulants – Green Tea, Cayenne Pepper and Caffeine. These work together to naturally increase your metabolism.

The Olive Leaf Extract is said to support the fat burning hormones in the body.

Any negatives?

You only get 60 capsules in a bottle
Doesn’t suppress appetite


Ripped Freak Hybrid contains a good natural formula, it has mostly positive reviews out there and is readily available here.

How To Eliminate Excess Body Fat ( Stomach And Face Fat)





Losing stomach and face fat changes your appearance -- and improves your health. The body deposits excess calories as fat in a layer under the skin called "subcutaneous fat." The fat on the stomach, abdominal fat, includes both subcutaneous fat and the most dangerous fat on your body, visceral fat. This fat blankets your organs and can harm your health. A combination of cardio, strength training and a sensible diet can eliminate excess body fat, the American Council on Fitness advises. As you reduce overall body fat, your stomach and face become slimmer.



Step 1

Increase your cardio. Walk briskly, use a mini trampoline, bicycle, dance, perform pool aerobics, step aerobics, martial-arts based aerobics or other continuous, rhythmic activity for at least 20 minutes three times a week to start. Increase your exercise sessions to 60 minutes most days of the week to burn fat and lose weight, the American Council on Exercise recommends.


Step 2


Perform resistance exercise at least two times a week for 20 minutes at each session. Use resistance bands or lift weights to maintain your muscles and keep up your metabolism as you diet. Focus most of your exercises on your legs, back and chest. Training these major muscles burns the most calories and helps to boost your metabolism so that you burn more calories.







Step 3

Engage in core training most days of the week. Include crunches, planks, side planks and leg raises to strengthen your abdominal muscles -- the obliques, rectus abdominis and transversus abdominis -- and your back. Strengthening your ab muscles can firm the midsection, so it looks tighter once the extra fat is lost; and a strong core can help you hold your belly in/improve your posture.





Step 4

Cut down on your calorie intake. A calorie deficit is needed to lose weight. Use monounsaturated fats in your diet in place of saturated fats. Substitute one-fourth of an avocado mashed on whole-grain bread for mayonnaise. Use olive oil instead of creamy salad dressings, and nuts or nut butters instead of cheese or butter. A diet rich in monounsaturated fat can help prevent and reduce abdominal fat, according to researchers who published their findings in the March 2007 "Journal of Diabetes Care." Eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, whole-grain breads and pastas and low-fat dairy products.

What To Do To Boost Your Metabolism & Burn More Calories.





Our metabolism is responsible for converting all calories from the food and drinks that we consume into energy. A fast metabolism burns more calories. However, our metabolic rate is affected by our age, gender, and size.
Nevertheless, there are some ways that we can do to independently control our metabolic speed. Here are some things that we can do to boost our metabolism.

1- Sleep
Health researchers have discovered a connection between metabolism and sleep. Not getting enough sleep can seriously slow down metabolism. Lack of sleep leaves your system stressed out. This makes the body produce more cortisol, which triggers your appetite. Also, it throws the system’s hunger hormones out of whack, making you crave more and end up overeating. Hence, it is important to get enough rest.

2- Drink Green Tea

Considered a “super-food,” green tea not only contains antioxidants but it also speeds up your metabolism. Also, it is calorie-free, so there is no reason not to have a glass or two every day. To learn more about the benefits of green tea.




3- Do Higher-Intensity Workouts

Steady and slow workouts may not always be successful in the race. High intensity workouts, which include interval runs or quick intense exercises can help jump-start your metabolism, which keeps on burning calories even after the workout is over.

4- Do Not Skip Breakfast

Breakfast is important as it kick-starts your metabolism and keeps it working throughout the day. Hence, set your alarm clock and grab a bite before starting your day. If you do not have a morning appetite, try a small snack such as a protein shake. 

5- Hit the Weights
Weight lifting not only helps you build muscle but it also helps in speeding up your metabolic rate. Hence, pump some iron and make those dumbbells your new best friends.

6- Spice Up Your Food
Spices such as cayenne pepper contain capsaicin, which is known to help boost metabolism. Add a dash of spice to your food for a fiery kick and to speed up your digestion.

How To Protect Your Skin From Sun Damage.




Sunlight has been clinically tested to improve moods and increase your body’s vitamin D production and endorphin release. But while everyone wants a glowing tan, the sun can also seriously damage your skin if you don’t take precautions. Here’s some simple guidelines for capturing that perfect tan and not frying your skin:

• The most important factor when picking a sunscreen is to get one that has an SPF of 15 or higher and broad-spectrum protection. This means your skin will be protected from both UVA and UVB rays.

• Chemical-free physical sunblocks that contain ingredients like zinc oxide or titanium dioxide  reflect harmful rays without reacting with the skin. This means they don’t cause allergic reactions and don’t sting the eyes if they run due to swimming or sweating.

• Regularly exfoliating your skin removes the outer layer of dead cells and allows you to achieve a more even tan. However, this also causes your skin to burn more easily, so don’t scrub yourself right before tanning.

• Lips can chap as easily from sunburn as from exposure to cold and dry air, so make sure to use a lip balm with an SPF of 15 or higher.



• Sunscreen should be applied 20 minutes before you go out into the sun to allow the skin time to absorb it. After a half an hour outside, it should be applied again for maximum protection. Most sunscreens only last about two hours, so make sure to apply it regularly, especially if swimming or sweating heavily. Even “waterproof” brands lose their potency after an hour in the water.

• Sand and water can reflect up to 90 percent of the sun’s rays, so give your skin extra protection when at the beach. A stronger SPF is also recommended for higher altitudes, since the air is thinner and sun exposure more intense.



• Don’t forget to apply sunscreen to sensitive areas like the tops of your feet, backs of your ears and neck, and areas of the scalp and hairline if your hair is thin or thinning.

What Makes Squats Such a Fantastic Exercise? ( Burn More Fat).





Most of you know that I'm an avid exerciser, and an avid exercise proponent.

Suffice it to say, a varied workout routine of appropriate intensity is one of the smartest health moves you can make, and adding squats to your routine is a must.

What makes squats such a fantastic exercise?

1- Builds Muscle in Your Entire Body:

Squats obviously help to build your leg muscles (including your quadriceps, hamstrings, and calves), but they also create an anabolic environment, which promotes body-wide muscle building.

In fact, when done properly, squats are so intense that they trigger the release of testosterone and human growth hormone in your body, which are vital for muscle growth and will also help to improve muscle mass when you train other areas of your body aside from your legs.

So squats can actually help you improve both your upper and lower body strength.



2- Functional Exercise Makes Real-Life Activities Easier:

Functional exercises are those that help your body to perform real-life activities, as opposed to simply being able to operate pieces of gym equipment. Squats are one of the best functional exercises out there, as humans have been squatting since the hunter-gatherer days. When you perform squats, you build muscle and help your muscles work more efficiently, as well as promote mobility and balance. All of these benefits translate into your body moving more efficiently in the real world too






3- Burn More Fat:

One of the most time-efficient ways to burn more calories is actually to gain more muscle! For every pound of additional muscle you gain, your body will burn an additional 50-70 calories per day. So, if you gain 10 pounds of muscle, you will automatically burn 500-700 more calories per day than you did before.

4- Maintain Mobility and Balance:

Strong legs are crucial for staying mobile as you get older, and squats are phenomenal for increasing leg strength. They also work out your core, stabilizing muscles, which will help you to maintain balance, while also improving the communication between your brain and your muscle groups, which helps prevent falls – which is incidentally the #1 way to prevent bone fractures versus consuming mega-dose calcium supplements and bone drugs.




5- Prevent Injuries:

Most athletic injuries involve weak stabilizer muscles, ligaments and connective tissues, which squats help strengthen. They also help prevent injury by improving your flexibility (squats improve the range of motion in your ankles and hips) and balance, as noted above.

6- Boost Your Sports Performance -- Jump Higher and Run Faster:

Whether you're a weekend warrior or a mom who chases after a toddler, you'll be interested to know that studies have linked squatting strength with athletic ability.1 Specifically, squatting helped athletes run faster and jump higher, which is why this exercise is part of virtually every professional athlete's training program.

7- Tone Your Backside, Abs and Entire Body:

Few exercises work as many muscles as the squat, so it's an excellent multi-purpose activity useful for toning and tightening your behind, abs, and, of course, your legs. Furthermore, squats build your muscles, and these muscles participate in the regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism and insulin sensitivity, helping to protect you against obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

3 Exercises That Get Rid Of Cellulite And works Nearly Every Part Of Your lower body—butt, hips, And Thighs.




Because cellulite is simply fat, many people experts included have claimed that the only way to lose cellulite is to lose body fat. But the most current thinking on cellulite goes a layer deeper, to the muscle that ultimately gives fat its shape. "As women age, they lose muscle," says Wayne L. Westcott, PhD, Prevention advisor and fitness research director at Quincy College. "As that muscle layer becomes thinner, weaker, and less firm, that overlying fat layer now doesn’t have a stable base. The fat crinkles and wrinkles and goes in any direction because there’s not a solid, smooth foundation underneath it."

Each of this exercise works nearly every part of your lower body—butt, hips, and thighs. In fact, they’re so efficient that tagging on just one of the following exercises to your regular workout 3 to 4 times a week can transform your entire lower body. Unless otherwise noted, complete one to three sets of each exercise.


•Clockwork Lunge :



1. STAND with hands on your hips and feet hip-width apart.

2. TAKE a big step forward with your right foot and lower down until your right leg is bent 90° and your left knee is nearly touching the floor. Push back up to starting position.

3. TAKE a big step to the right with your right foot, bending the right knee and keeping the left leg straight. Return to the starting position.

4. TAKE a big step back with your right foot. Lower until left leg is bent 90° and right knee is almost touching the floor. Return to starting position.

REPEAT with the left foot, stepping to the front, then to the left side, then back. That’s one set. Do 15 sets.



 •Plié Squat With Alternating Heel Raise :



1. STAND with feet about 3 feet apart, toes pointed out.

2. LOWER down until thighs are nearly parallel to the floor. Push yourself back up to standing. That’s one rep. Do 15 reps.

3. REPEAT the same move, but raise the right heel as you lower down. Do 15 reps.

4. REPEAT the same move, but raise your left heel as you lower your body down. Do 15 reps.


• Alternating Abduction Squats  :



PLACE a weighted stability ball about one foot in front of you. (A Swiss ball works, too.)

1. RAISE your right leg and touch the top of the ball with your foot. Use your foot to swipe the ball to the right side, landing with your feet shoulder-width apart.

2. SQUAT: Bend at your knees and lower your body down until your thighs are parallel to the floor. Push yourself back to standing.

REPEAT using left side

NOTE: If you don’t have a BOSU ball or Swiss ball, do the same motion but without the ball. Raise your knee up to about hip-height, swipe your leg out to the side, and land with feet shoulder-width apart.
