What makes this so different than the rest of the crop of
2010 “diet” books? Aren’t all these books more or less
the same?
Not this one.
We all know that we gain fat when we take in more
calories than we burn. But we’re not always rational
creatures when it comes to food and exercise.
Recognizing the emotional and psychological factors that
sabotage success and cause weight relapse, Venuto’s new
hardcover Book, The Body Fat Solution (Avery/Penguin Group)
hones in on the real causes of body-fat.
This book hands you a scientifically-sound plan based on
*principles* not current fads, to take back control of
your body and end emotional eating for good.
In The Body Fat Solution, Venuto outlines the 5 principles
that will retrain your mind and body for automatic success.
Determined to help you keep the fat off for good, Tom shows
you how to:
* End emotional eating and stop diet self sabotage
* Re-program your mind to develop “auto-pilot” success habits
* Go beyond goal setting by crafting a powerful “vision”
that motivates you for life
* Eat healthy, delicious food almost unconsciously and
shed the pounds almost effortlessly
* Increase your metabolism and break any fat loss plateau
* Reshape your body through lean muscle training for a
strong core and toned frame
* Build a supportive social network of friends, family,
and mentors to help motivate you and keep you on the path.
HERE’S WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT THE BODY FAT SOLUTION
* The Wall street journal says that The body fat solution is
more “attitude adjustment” than diet.
* Steve Yu, producer of ‘Inspired The Movie’ says, “it will
change the paradigm in how we view weight loss…”
* Judith beck, PhD, Cognitive psychologist says, “Read this book -
if you want to lose weight, improve your body and your health,
and keep up these improvements for life. Tom Venuto gives it
to you straight, basing his program on solid science and
common sense. You will come away with a new feeling of
inspiration and a new action plan to get you started and
keep you on track to help you reach your goals-and then beyond.”
* Motivational Speaker Brian Tracy says:
“Tom Venuto’s Body Fat Solution is one of the most important
books on health, happiness and physical well-being ever written.
In this fast-moving, easily usable series of methods and techniques,
you learn how to enjoy superb physical fitness, achieve your ideal
weight, and feel terrific about yourself both emotionally and
spiritually.”
* Top trainer Alwyn Cosgrove says:
“In 2003 Tom Venuto changed the fat loss world with his ebook
Burn the Fat – Feed the Muscle… In 2009 he’s done it again
with the Body Fat Solution. The World’s expert on fat loss speaks
- I listen. I’ve often said – Fat loss doesn’t start with an
exercise program, a diet or a supplement… It starts with a
mindset shift. That mindset shift begins with Tom’s new book.
If you want to change your body – you need to change your mind.
And to do that – you need Tom Venuto.”
* Library journal, the 132-year old publication read by
100,000 librarians, said:
“Venuto gets at all the physical, psychological, and even
sociological aspects of overeating, outlining a program of
mental, cardio, and strength training stressing accountability
and self-control. Nothing fluffy about this book: just well-
founded scientific research and clearly illustrated direction.”
You’ll be happy that you did.
Sincerely,
Greg

“the best seller of the new year!”

Will Playing Basketball work for Fat loss?
October 23, 2008

Basketball for weight loss
By Tom Venuto
www.BurnTheFat.com
ANSWER: I just plugged basketball into my calories burned calculator and it says that if you weigh 185 pounds, moderate basketball (full court game play) burns 839 calories per hour. Moderate basketball (non-game) is 528 calories per hour. I’m guessing “non-game” means either half court or just casual play with your buddies.
Either way, 528-839 calories burned per hour sounds like a good fat burner to me – especially the all-out, full court basketball. Don’t you agree?Basketball also gives you a wide variety of different physical challenges and intensity levels – running down the court, jumping, pivoting, shooting – and you said you enjoy it.
If you feel guilty when you finish your game, as if you didn’t burn enough, when the game is over, just run intervals up and down the court… do about 6-10 of them or until you yak. (just kidding).If I were to clarify my position on cardio training in my fat loss book today, I don’t think I would change my recommendations much. I’m a very strong proponent of exercise and becoming more active to burn fat rather than just cutting calories. However, I might change some of the language to make it clearer that fat loss is about BURNING calories and that your choices for HOW to burn them are virtually infinite.
The problem, in my opinion?
The word “aerobics” sets people off… especially the macho guys. There’s an instant emotional connotation carried in the word “aerobics, and it’s negative for many people. “Aerobics” is also usually a very narrow definition making for a fairly small list of choices.
I like the word “cardio” a little better, because it’s a little broader, but even “cardio” carries with it some pre-conceived notions and it’s unclear whether various types of “cardio” exercise are good fat burners.
Is basketball cardio? I suppose it depends on your definition.
Is basketball a good fat burner? Sure. But you might not think so if you were inflexible about how you define exercise and training.
What I would do if I wanted to most clearly define what makes a good fat burner, I’d recommend that you focus on:
“INCREASING ENERGY EXPENDITURE” (BURN MORE!)
This description leaves the choice of activity up to your own personal interpretation and personal preference.
Is 500 to 800 calories per hour a lot of energy to expend? You bet. Better still is the fact that you enjoy it. I know, I know, everyone wants to be told EXACTLY what to do; how many minutes, what intensity, what type, what heart rate, blah, blah, blah, and gurus are infamous for being dogmatic about their systems as the “best way” or “only way.” But what if Dan loves basketball and Tom loves the Stepmill and Joe loves to jog and Kyle likes calisthenics and John likes kettlebells and Suzy likes kickboxing? Then what?
By changing your language and focusing on increasing “energy expenditure” (Burning more), that should change your conception of what efficient fat burning exercise is.
DEFINITION OF GOOD FAT BURNING EXERCISE =
High # of total calories burned/expended
DEFINITION OF GREAT FAT BURNING EXERCISE =
High # of total calories burned/expended and high # expended per unit of time
DEFINITION OF WHOOP-ASS FAT BURNING EXERCISE =
High # of total calories burned and high # burned in a short period of time and you love doing it! It’s play time!
Fat oxidation and excess post exercise energy expenditure and all that other scientific stuff (that I could bore you to death talking about) does matter, but your primary focus should be on:
1) Burning as many calories as you can in the time you have.
2) Finding something you like to do.
3) Focusing on RESULTS above all else… Is your body fat decreasing or not?Last, but not least, don’t forget that optimal fat loss is achieved with a three-part approach including nutrition, weight training and “cardio” training. I’m not saying that basketball should replace your strength training. I’m suggesting that basketball or other sports can be a perfectly viable alternative to traditional aerobics or cardio if they’re high energy cost activities.
Using my new definition for fat burning exercise should help lift the fog of confusion that has been created by only defining fat burning exercise as”aerobics” or “cardio.”
The word “Aerobics” is somewhat restrictive in scope and definition. The possibilites for “expending energy” are endless.So now, go forth and BURN THE FAT… however you choose to do it… just do it!
Train hard and expect success,

A Review Of Tom Venuto’s Burn The Fat Inner Circle
May 31, 2008
A Review Of Tom Venuto’s Burn The Fat Inner Circle (The Internet’s Premier Fat Loss Support Community!)
I just took a real hard look at Tom Venuto’s member’s-only website called “Burn The Fat Inner Circle” and I have to say that I am very impressed with what he has put together.
This site is huge and contains some really powerful resources for people trying to lose fat and get in great shape.
This site, just like Tom’s other sites, has very high quality materials that will help his member’s burn more fat and really achieve the results they are looking for.
Before I share with you the insider-details of what the Inner Circle offers let me fill you in on who Tom Venuto is just in case you don’t know who he is.
Tom Venuto is a well known “Fat Loss Guru” — and a natural bodybuilder himself (can you say 3% bodyfat!!!). He’s the author of “Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle” which just happens to be the best fat loss and diet e-book I have ever read. (I reviewed Burn The Fat some time ago. If you’re in the market for a learner body then you should read Tom’s E-book).
Ok, back to my review of the Inner Circle website…
Burn the Fat Inner Circle is in fact a membership site. That means that yes; it does cost money to join. You may be wondering why you should even consider paying for a membership here if you have access to all kinds of free information online.
It’s a good question for sure and one that I asked too before I reviewed Tom’s site.
There’s a lot of free stuff on the internet and many free forums too but let’s be honest, a lot these free sites are pure garbage. For example, some of the free forums online are not closely moderated and I have had experiences were other forum members completely trashed other members even swearing at them! Not much of a supportive community.
The vast majority of the stuff online that isn’t complete garbage is slanted one way or another to sell you something. So it takes time to find real, helpful fat loss information.
Finding good teachers and supportive people can be a challenge on some of the free forums and sites but after checking out Tom’s fat loss support community I must say that I was impressed with how supportive the moderators and other members were.
I have always been a believer that finding good ‘mentors’ (people that have done what you want to do) has really helped me to achieve success at a faster rate. From what I have seen, the Inner Circle has a phenomenal group of fat loss mentors that can you help you get your questions answered.
Being part of a community of like-minded, qualified people can be a real motivating factor and the Burn The Fat Inner Circle contains a member’s forum — with thousands of members. These folks aren’t going to ‘flame’ you, call you stupid for asking questions, and they are not there to sell you supplements or other garbage.
And best of all, topics are moderated by professionals with impressive credentials (some top fitness professionals and fat loss success stories there to help you out).
Wrapping this up… joining a membership program can make very good sense… provided it’s the right program — and I assure you, this one is top notch.
OK, before I tell you what you’ll find inside the member’s-only area of the Burn The Fat Inner Circle, let me answer one last and very obvious question…
“Do I need to be on Tom’s Burn The Fat program in order to join this fat loss support community?”
My answer is absolutely not. There is a ton of great material in this site that will be of benefit to anyone — no matter what diet you are currently on.
To be fair though… it appears (by viewing posts in the forums) that many members are either on Tom’s plan or are at least familiar with it. So you’ll fit into this community better if you’re at least familiar with Tom’s Burn The Fat Feed The Muscle lifestyle program.
Let’s get to the good stuff shall we?
So what will you find in Tom’s Burn The Fat Inner Circle?
Oh boy… where to start?
Well, it’s all there really — everything you could possibly need on your fat loss quest.
I’m sure the biggest benefit for you is going to be the forums. They’re full of activity and supportive answers from real people that ‘walk the walk and talk the talk.”
The forum members are from all walks of life, all motivated by the same thing (and ready to lend a helpful hand to their fellow community members).
And of course, there’s a ton of info there as well…
Here are some of the coolest features that the Inner Circle offers:
• Tom Venuto’s Burn The Fat Show (A Members-Only MP3 Audio Program) that really has some powerful tips delivered by Tom Venuto himself • Audio interviews with top fitness and fat loss experts (I download a few of these and put them on my IPOD — very inspiring to listen to during my cardio workout today!) • Amazing fat loss success stories – learn how others just like you achieved their impressive body transformations (These interviews are great and I got some really cool takeaways from these people who have taken Tom’s program and ran with it!)
• Ever-expanding library of exclusive (not published elsewhere) articles; some really meaty stuff!
• Exclusive (not published elsewhere) Burn The Fat program Q & A that are great if you are going through a fat loss program and want your questions answered. • Library of downloadable e-books and e-reports for members only — My goodness! Tom sells these special reports and e-books to non-members and if you were to buy them one by one you would pay over $379!
• Diet and menu tracking and planning tools that are PRICELESS!! I figured out exactly how many calories I needed to take in for each meal for my fat loss plan; so cool!
• Calorie and nutrient information at your fingertips
• Weight loss and fitness news headlines that keep me up to date with the latest fat loss tips
• Community photo galleries where Tom’s members post before, after and progress pictures — so inspiring!
• Delicious taste-tested fat-burning recipes — I highly recommend Tom’s “Quick N’ Easy Salmon Burgers” — DELICIOUS!
• NO B.S. Science-based and unbiased supplement reviews (I stopped taking one of the supplements I was spending about $50 bucks per month on because of one of these reviews!)
• And there is even more that I am running out of space to cover here… The tagline of the Inner Circle is that it is supposed to be the Internet’s Premier Fat Loss Support Community, and having checked it all out, I’d have to say I agree 100%.
Bottom line?
Tom Venuto is a credible, qualified professional who knows his stuff. More than that perhaps, is the fact that he has a genuine concern for the people his is helping and is concerned with taking care of the people that enter his program above all else.
Tom has helped thousands of people shed thousands of pounds of fat and he is not like some online marketers out to take advantage of the hopes and dreams of honest people looking to make some positive changes in there life.
You’ll see no supplements for sale here and you’ll be impressed with the honesty and integrity that Tom has infused into the Inner Circle site — it really is something special and my recommendation is to check it out.
His “Inner Circle” is a premier quality resource — well worth the money, and a benefit to anyone, anywhere, of any age who is trying to lose weight naturally and permanently.
I highly recommend the Burn the Fat Inner Circle.
Sincerely,
Greg
PS — Don’t take my word for it… just see what some people are saying about the Inner Circle:
“My initial weight: 425+ lbs… Walking 10-15 steps was killer then… Today: 218 Lbs of fat put to rest! It changed my very foundation in life; there is absolutely no feeling like having control of your entire life again… there’s just no price you can put on it” –Mike Boyd, Inner Circle Member
“One day, while I was looking through a pack of photos, I came across a picture of me… and I barely recognized myself! At 5′ 1″, and150 pounds I had to face the fact that I was Forty and Fat. I had no idea that I had “let myself go” so much. So I decided to make some changes. Somehow, I happened upon Burn The Fat and ordered. It was the best money I ever spent. Today, I am 106 pounds, and I wear a size 0 (zero!)I am a personal trainer helping other women achieve their goals. I am a mom that can keep up with my kids. My self-confidence has soared. I actually decided to compete in two figure competitions this year – something I never would have dreamed possible before!
Sincerely, Aida Miodus, Inner Circle Member
“I used the BURN THE FAT program to not only lose 137 pounds, but it also changed my entire life and the life of my family. BURN THE FAT has also helped me achieve emotional, physical and financial goals I never thought possible. I believe that your entire success can be traced back to something as simple as desire. I need you to ask yourself one simple question – ‘How Bad Do You Want It?’ If you want it bad the battle is on and you can win, you just have to keep that desire fueled.
Sincerely,
Mike Ogorek, Inner Circle Member

2 Cardio Mistakes You’re Still Making
May 31, 2008
www.BurnTheFat.com
REASON #1: NOT ENOUGH FOCUS ON TOTAL CALORIES BURNED
REASON #2: TOO MUCH FOCUS ON WHAT TYPE OF CALORIES BURNED
(B) A 30 minute, sweat-pouring, heart-pounding, lung-burning run?
The reason people still buy it is because the “fat burning zone” myth sounds so plausible because of two little science facts:
- The higher your intensity, the more carbs you burn during the workout
- The lower your intensity, the more fat you burn during the workout
It’s not that fat oxidation doesn’t matter, but what if you have a high percentage of fat oxidation but an extremely low number of calories burned?
If you really want to be in the “fat burn zone,” you could sit on your couch all day long and that will keep you there quite nicely because “couch sitting” is a really low intensity (“fat-burning”) activity.
HERE’S THE FAT-BURNING SOLUTION!
BUT WAIT – THERE IS MORE TO IT…
Incidentally, this is the exact reason that a few studies show that adding cardio or aerobic training to a diet “did not improve fat loss”: It’s not because the cardio didn’t work, it was because the researchers didn’t control for diet and the subjects ate more!!
It should go without saying that nutrition is the foundation on which every fat loss program is built.
Choose the combination of type, intensity, duration and frequency that suits your lifestyle and preferences the best, and WORK THE VARIABLES to get the fat loss results you want, but whichever cardio program you choose, remember that a solid fat burning nutrition program, such as Burn The Fat Feed The Muscle is necessary to help you make the most of it.

Fat Burners: The Unadulterated Truth

Fat Burners: The Unadulterated Truth
By Tom Venuto, NSCA-CPT, CSCS
www.BurnTheFat.com
If you’ve paid any attention at all to the weight loss industry, chances are you’ve probably heard about some kind of fat burner supplements. The ads that promote these fat burners usually have a very lean model, often with a six-pack claiming incredible fat loss success. These companies would like you to believe that the only way to guarantee fat loss progress is by supplementing your diet with one of their “miracle pills,” and that it is not so much a matter of proper nutrition and hard work.
While I won’t dismiss the fact that there are some ingredients in some “fat burner” products that might help a little bit, I take great displeasure in seeing those kinds of misleading headlines as well as the misleading use of models who are often paid to endorse the product even though they may never have even used it (they’re just models!)
Many “fat burner” companies have been sued by the Federal Trade Commission for false advertising, false claims and falsifying before and after photos.
Just so you know those numbers arent something I just pulled out of thin air, lets take an example:
- walk your dog for 15 minutes
- three times a day, walk for 5 minutes at normal casual pace
- 30 minutes of ironing
- bagging leaves and grass clippings for 14 minutes
- re arrange your furniture for 10 minutes
- wash your car, 15 minutes
- vacuuming for 15 minutes
- 7.2 minutes of walking up stairs (could be spread throughout the day)
Ah yes, but why move your body when you can take the pill and metabolism increases while you sit and watch TV? How about for your health? A body that is not moved, rots away. Unlike a car which only has so many miles on it and wears out from over-use, people are the only “machines” on earth that fall apart from under-use.
Here’s what any good personal trainer will always tell you: No amount of calorie restriction or pill-popping will ever give you FITNESS. It willl never give you STRENGTH. it will never get you MUSCULARITY. It will never give you FUNCTIONALITY. At best it will help you reduce body mass slightly.
On one hand, I’m tempted to say that everything counts and that yes, 75 calories here, and 75 calories there, it ALL adds up, because it does. After you’re exercising regularly and all your fundamentals are in place, details and little things do matter.
I’m simply asking you to put the benefits of any fat burners in proper perspective and realize that (1) there is no “need” for taking them and (2) the claims made in the ads are often erroneous or exagerrated.
1. NEVER buy a fat burner unless you get independent verification of the claims made for the product.
2. Put it in perspective
3. See if there are any side effects or health warnings.
4. Read the label and see if the product contains enough active ingredient to even work.
5. Proprietary blend scam.
Some companies, DONT LET YOU SEE how much ingredient is in the product formula, because it contains multiple ingredients and they say their formula is a “trade secret” aka “proprietary”, so they list WHAT is in the product but not HOW MUCH. If you don’t know how much is in there then how are we (the consumers) supposed to get independent confirmation of the facts and analyze whether this product is any good?
6. Make sure there is human research, not just rodent research.
7. Look for more than one human study.
Actually, I think it’s a good thing that nutrition and supplement companies fund and sponsor some of the research. They should. They should not only back up their claims with published clinical trials, they should share some of the cost of this expensive research.
Do you REALLY need “more” than nutrition and exercise??????
