Hybrid Training for Fat Loss Anyone?

Hey guys,

Welcome back! As I've mentioned on my earlier post, I'll be heading off to Perhentian Island in a month's time and my training has been getting more intense every week. I just came out of a 3 month bulking phase with some added muscle back into my scrawny frame. After coming out of the phase, I ended up with 72kg overall weight with 14% body fat. That's a 7kg increase since December 2010. Not too shabby eh? :P

However, I can't show up in an island carrying this big belly! I was reading about a lot of articles on fat loss and it seems that most of these guys were having problems like losing muscle, having less energy etc... I guess its because of all the calorie restrictions. Well, I can't let that happen to my valuable 7kgs of hard earned mass.

Then, I stumbled on this program which was recommended by Vince by the way. It is a program by New York’s Premier Fat Loss Expert and Fitness Model John Romaniello.

                                                  He calls it : FINAL PHASE FAT LOSS

After picking it up and reading it, the program actually emphasizes on our hormones and how to do specific workouts to produce more hormones like Testosterone, IGF-1 (Growth Hormone), Leptin to battle off those bad guys like Cortisol, Estrogen (for guys) and more catabolic hormones... Very interesting stuff! Especially for those of you who seem to have difficulties losing the last few pounds of fat that makes your six pack visible.

John also talked about how these bad hormones have a certain habit of staying in our troubled areas like belly, glutes (ass), chest and thighs and he also has an interesting theory on how to "spot reduce" fat in specific troubled area. AWESOME! Just what I needed!! Now for you guys out there who had made some research stating that spot reduction is impossible, I had the same thinking too... but after reading the manual, the theory of it seems realistic, which is why I've decided to pick up a copy and try it out for myself.

I've just finished reading the manual yesterday and will be heading to the gym in a couple of hours to try his program out with only 4 weeks to go, let's hope that I can melt off those Fat in my mid section as much as possible.

Stay tuned for my workouts on this program, I'm trying to take some short clips on the routine and post it here, but first, need to find a cameraman / lady..... :)
