7 Micronutrients For Macro Results

http://empowerednutrition.com/7-Micronutrients-for-Macro-Results

When it comes to nutrition, you have to think small to get big results.  To make sure you accomplish your goals and stay healthy; you have to provide yourself adequate water, not just huge amounts of protein, but also vitamins, minerals and for the body to respond effectively to your training.


The standard bodybuilding diet and get skinny quick diets relying on yams, chicken breasts and a few other staple foods is ideal for getting the macronutrients (protein, carbohydrates and fat) you need to lose fat and build muscle, but it falls woefully short when it comes to certain micronutrients (vitamins and minerals).  

The fact is that no individual food provided adequate amount of all the micronutrients you need to maximize fat loss, muscle growth, and support recovery and optimal health.  Chances are that you’re getting fit diet emphasizes a few foods at the expense of many others, which taps the micronutrient profile in ways unintended.

Active people including bodybuilders and weekend warriors need considerably more micronutrients than average people do.  The Recommended Daily Intake (RDI) does only recommended daily minimums, 200 pound body builders need are noticeably more than the RDI minimums indicate.

Nevertheless, there can sometimes be risks involved taking too much of a particular vitamin supplement form, which may lead to toxicity or other side effects.  This is particularly true of minerals.  Therefore, we need to take these upper limits in mind while also making certain you’re getting more than you’re daily minimums.


Additionally don’t forget that many foods are excellent sources of particular micronutrients.  For each micro we discuss, I would also provide you with a list of foods that are rich in the nutrient.  The good news is that many of these foods are small calorie fruits and vegetables and work well with your body building and fat loss diet – whether you’re trying to add mass or cut body fat.

Here I will provide a rundown of some of the most vital micronutrients bodybuilders, fitness models, athletes and active individuals need, ranked roughly from the top in terms of their importance and supporting tissue growth, maintenance and fat loss.

In the next few paragraphs I will cover and uncover these magical micronutrients, why you need them, how to use them and where to get them.

7 Micronutrients for Macro Results:

1. Cool C
2. E for Excellent
3. Magnificent Magnesium
4. The Non Vitamin... All Washed Up
5. The Canadian Vitamin "eh"
6. Electrifying Electrolytes
7. Z = Results!

Let’s get started... read the entire line up here >> http://empowerednutrition.com/7-micronutrients-for-macro-results


You can get almost all the nutrients you need from a well structured meal plan like the Empowered Nutrition Done For You Meal Plans, that are full of all natural foods, including, meats, poultry, fish, eggs, dairy for proteins as well as fruits, vegetables and grains for carbohydrates and nuts and oils for omega rich fats.

My buddy Mike Westerdal is a strong guy, but the cool thing is he is one of the nicest guys around... but clearly he can build up some anger management as you will see in these 2 videos of Mike doing 315 pounds for 8 and then doing 405 pounds for reps.

Critical Bench 2.0

I have done 315 pounds for 3 sets of 10.

I have done 405 pounds for 4, 5 and 6 reps just a handful of times, but this is just awesome muscle and power.

So in my honor to August is Awesome Muscle Month, here is Mike Westerdal, Owner of Critical Bench doing 315 and 405 on the Bench Press.

		<description><![CDATA[OK so when you think about nutrition do you think muscle building or fat loss?

August is Awesome Muscle Month

The answer is BOTH because Nutrition is the key link to BOTH Muscle Building and Fat Loss.

Wihtout empowered nutrition, you won't accomplish any of your goals.  You won't burn fat and you won't build muscle.

You certainly won't be able to build it up and cut it off and show that lean sexy body you'be been working so hard for.

Just to remind you that muscles are sexy and fun, I included this cool video at the end you just have to see... it's awesome!

So to help you I want to remind you to cycle your training and your nutrition for the Ultimate Transformation.  You will want to build muscle as much as you can, as fast as you can and as effectively as you can.  You will also want to cut the fat as fast and efficiently as you possibly can.

That is why I am going to stick to a theme for you and keep reminding you that August is Awesome Muscle Month.

Need I remind you that Muscle Building is for BOTH Men and Women.  Come on guys, don't be so ego-typical and think I was writing this just for you.  yeah right a whole month dedicated to guys... might was well call this Alpha Male Fitness

Ladies... STOP.  Stop that little voice in your head.  Stop it from saying "but I don't want to look like a guy... I don't want to be She-HULK".  Trust me even if you were loaded to the gills with pharmaceuticals you still won't start to look like a guy.  Perhaps like a very muscular fish consider you grew gills... sorry pharmacopia humor.

Muscle building is for both Guys and Gals and if you thought differently, then you are missing out on incredible results.  Not only that you are missing out on fast tracking your results and having that dream body faster than you planned.

So train hard, train smart and enjoy this months August is Awesome Muscle Month features I got lined up for you.

Watch the video... Now this is Awesome Muscle! >> http://empowerednutrition.com/august-is-awesome-muscle-month ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There is nothing greater than being in control of your own destiny.  There is no better way to do this than taking control of your energy, your emotions, your physical appearance and your abilities.

Looking and feeling great is the most incredible experience one can have and it can only be enhanced by celebrating your success with a vacation retreat on a pristine, white sand beach with soft glowing blue waters, and subtle white tops cresting the tide as you walk in the surf and peel off your shirt for the first time in what seems like an eternity to reveal the newly etched details upon your flawless abdominals and body.

Being able to take control of your destiny is something millions of people are attempting to do right now at this very moment.   The world over people are working harder and longer than ever before in an effort to take control of their lives financially as their health, fitness and mental vitality painfully spiral out of control.

One of the best things you  can do that truly will put you in control of your life is to take control of both health in mind and body.  While many are gaining unimaginable amounts of weight and losing control of their health sitting in office chairs in front of computer screens for hours on end, there is an elite few that are doing the exact opposite by taking control of their health and destiny eating well, being active and going on multiple vacations every year away from computer screens while enjoying beaches, sun and surf.

The great thing is this can be you too.  You can take control of your future and be the master of your own destiny in this unstable economic time by taking control of yourself.  It is without a doubt (and some pretty compelling empirical data) that fit bodied professionals are paid better, receive promotions sooner, work less and perform better than their sedentary plump partners.  They also command nonverbal respect in and out of the boardroom...

... It has been reported that a 30-60 minute workout first thing in the morning provides a mental and physical focus that allows an individual to complete 9 hours work in 8 hours or less, thus providing more time to enjoy more vacation time.

One of these elite few is none other than Patrick McGuire, President Empowered Nutrition Products Inc, a professional nutrition and fitness expert with a focus on living life to the fullest and providing powerful proven results and ultimate transformation rewards...

Keeping nutrition at the forefront of the three pillars of performance...

		<description><![CDATA[Ammunition for building awesome an awesome Body with TacFit Commando Training...
Watch the TACFIT - KIDNAPPED VIDEO at www.EmpoweredNutrition.com/tacfit-commando-bullet-points

Whether you dream of training exactly like the world’s elite special ops or you just want that shredded special ops physique, TACFIT Commando addresses both lean muscle gain AND fat loss WHILE exposing you to a level of skill development that’s been kept “classified” until today.

High-Intensity Fat-Burning Circuits:

Each mission in the TACFIT Commando dossier can be completed in less than 30 minutes, and those 30 intense minutes melt fat faster than hours of cardio-style exercise.

Equipment Free Muscle:

When on a mission, "black-ops" types need to maintain or even continue building muscle mass without equipment. We put the Commando program together to maximize continued muscle growth while ensuring optimal fat loss. When you're on vacation, too busy to get to the gym, or simply want to shake things up a bit while still building muscle, this is the perfect equipment-free solution.

Complex Skills that promote “neurological sophistication”:

Special ops guys tell us that after training with TACFIT, time appears to slow down as they speed up, fine motor skills become more accurate, gross motor skills more efficient, and they feel significantly less stress in a crisis. Imagine how much easier it'll be to put up with the stresses of day to day life? That neural stimulation also means you'll be able to activate more of your muscle fibres and lift more weight when you go back to the gym. You'll also avoid fat loss plateaus by continually adding new stimulus.

Injury-Proofing and Active Recovery:

The tactical operator needs specific low-intensity mobility exercises to accelerate recovery from intense effort, to prevent overtraining, and to diminish the delayed muscle soreness typical of extreme exertion—which translates to constant mission readiness. YOU will get the same benefits applied to accelerated fat loss and recovery from intense training.

High Octane Cardio Conditioning

Tactical training programs must target the energy systems of tactical response: that means high intensity, three-dimensional movements done for repeated bursts of short duration, with fast recovery—serious workouts for those who aren’t afraid to push limits others call impossible. For YOU that means faster fat loss through interval-style training, and more energy for your work, leisure and life.

Improved Stress Management:

Finally, the extreme psychological stress experienced by active tactical responders requires methods that safely reabsorb the adrenal dump of “fight or flight.” You’re of no help to your teammates if you’re sick or burnt out. Your ammunitions only as good as your rifle—and if your equipment breaks down you can't even shoot blanks. Daily life translation: a run in with the boss, your spouse or an irate neighbour won't tax your system like it used to -- you'll be calm, cool, collected and ulcer-free.

Well Rounded Physical Specimen…:

Crisis response demands a physical training program tailored to the specific needs of the field agent: tireless stamina, extreme range reactive strength, ballistic speed, the agility and coordination of a Free Runner, and active recovery and pre-habilitation. Tactical operatives need these things NOW, and TACFIT delivers in spades. Using the programs designed for these guys means YOU will benefit from the same kind of well-rounded athleticism they use on real life James Bond missions.

Cool Applications — Party Tricks

Real Tactical Applications: each exercise has been carefully programmed to forge the highest level of specific conditioning while building and reinforcing tactically relevant skill sets. Want to move like Mission Impossible? TACFIT will teach you how. By incrementally working up to the "crazy" tactical exercises these guys use, you'll have an endless source of "party tricks" to amaze your friends and freak out your kids. You'll also build an incredible movement palette for your sport, leisure activities or just your everyday life.

"And what guy doesn’t dream of learning the methods that Navy SEALS, Marines and real-life secret agents are using right now to chisel those rock hard bodies…?"

Program Specs:

-> Bodyweight only — No equipment

-> 4 distinct types of training days performed cyclically (mobility, flexibility, strength, conditioning)

-> Choice of a rotating 4 day or 7 day cycle OR…

-> Integration of specific components into your existing workouts (cardio, flexibility, etc)

-> 9 28-day "Missions"

-> Instructional videos for each Mission

-> Follow along videos for each Recovery session

-> Follow along videos for each Mission (Deluxe Deployment Kit)

-> eBook manual and pdf Mission Guides

-> And many more "goodies"

		<description><![CDATA[I hope you enjoyed the weekend.  As a Canadian who carries his Irish passport and his American green card I take the liberty to thoroughly enjoy every festive holiday I can.

This weekend was no exception as we are enjoying July 1st Canada day and July 4, Independence Day in the US.  It’s truly great as my mom and step father are up from Naples Florida and they joined me, my wife and 3 kids at the Canada Day fireworks display at Spencer Smith Park in Burlington ON.  But Not before I got some park time with the kids and my wife.  After the park we did lunch, and then I hit a killer ride in Kelso, where I met two other riders that were out for some fun as well.  Then we had a nice family dinner, kept the kids up late and went to the fireworks, it was a great day.  I captured most of the day on my Hero Cam for you.

To celebrate Independence Day on July 4, we had a great big BBQ at my mom’s apartment (albeit here in Burlington ON) and ate a lot of whole beef hotdogs and sliders.  (For anyone who does not know what a slider is, think mini hamburgers or just go to White Castle and order a sleeve).  It was great; we swam, played and ate.  Starting with veggies and lots of water; going heavy on the veggies first prepped us for all the other food to come.  Of course after all the veggies, and eating more than my share of meat, I washed it down with a pop and chased it with a cappuccino ice cream drumstick. I got a lot of this day on video too, including... YUP! Another mountain bike ride at Kelso.

Well, I hope you enjoyed your Can Am Weekend as much as I did and I hope you let loose on a day or two having your cheat, treat and reward meals.  If for any reason you feel you over did it and are feeling guilty, then there is a quick easy fix to get you back on track with your calorie plan.  You can always include a STOP day this week.  I am having a STOP day today.  Seriously I am STOPPING all food consumption for 24 hours.  Just liquids with ZERO calories, starting with an ice cold glass of water with lemon juice followed by black coffee lots of water, green tea (hot and cold) and more water and black coffee.  

BEFORE you scream at me, you better do some research on the subject like I have.   Stopping is NOT Starving. You WONT lose muscle.  You will NOT be lethargic and tired.  You will NOT feel empty and starve.  In fact the opposite of all those will occur.  You WILL be more focused.  You WILL get more done.   You WILL burn more body fat today and you WILL keep all the muscle mass you started the STOP day with.  Just as my friend Brad Pilon, he wrote the book on Intermittent Fasting and called it Eat STOP Eat.

I am going on a STOP for 24 hours from dinner to dinner as I choose that to eat the main meal with my family as it could be difficult to explain to 6 and 4 year old girls why daddy is not eating dinner with them.

So if you have not yet enjoyed a good cheat, treat and reward meal for a job well done this past week, or celebrated the Canadian and American Holidays, then today is the day to do that.  Have a HUGE BBQ dinner tonight, have a glass of wine or a pop and have that ice cream treat when you are done.  Trust me your body will thank you for it, especially after a week of staying focused on your nutrition game plan.

If you already did over indulge, then get back on your Empowered Nutrition Meal Plans and consider adding a STOP day to your schedule and surprise yourself just how easy it is and how much work you get done today.

		<description><![CDATA[I have to admit, this is going to be tough to admit... but the truth is out.  I don`t know if I will ever be able to do this.

Can you do or even imagine doing what this guy is doing... its crazy and you need killer skill, strength, and balance and muscle control to pull this one off.

Enough hype and awestruck babbling, just watch the video and you will know what I mean.  Then read the rest of the post and find out how you can issue your own challenge and get 1 Night Hotel Stay for your challenge efforts.

================================================
Watch the Planche Push Up and Inspiration Video on the Blog 
>> www.EmpoweredNutrition.com
================================================

WOW!  Enough said.  I am literally awestruck and amazed! 

So if that doesn’t inspire you to think of something crazy, or get you to try it yourself, then I don’t know what will.  No like I said, I am not really sure if I can even do some of the training push ups let alone the full Planche Push Up, but you have to know that I have tried (and failed) and will continue to challenge myself and try it again every few months.  When I finally do a full planche push up I will be sure to post the video.  I may even be obliged to add my failures for fun video viewing pleasure.

Now here is the cool, fun and rewarding part of this blog post and how you can have 1 Night Hotel Stay Certificate.

Get ALL the Details on the BLOG
>> www.EmpoweredNutrition.com

I want to encourage you to be creative in your training and inspire others to try something new too.  I want to hear what crazy exercise or personal challenge you set for yourself either now or in the past.  All you need to do is make it short and sweet and post a comment on the blog below for others to read and try.

If you DO try someone else’s crazy challenge exercise or activity, then post a reply on their comment and let them know how you appreciate the challenge and just how well you did. 

For every Challenge Exercise or Activity posted I will issue each person 1 Night Hotel Stay Certificate on Sunday night by email.

If you have the chance and ability to put it on video and post a link to EmpoweredNutrition.com from or in your video and post link to your video in your comments, I will make a blog post featuring your video and you and I will give you 2 Night Hotel Stay Certificate just for going that extra step to be different and inspire and challenge others.

You will have to hurry as the CHALLENGE for YOUR CHALLENGE is over Sunday June 20, 2010 at 9pm.  After that you can still post your own challenges, but I won’t be able to give away any more 1 or 2 Night Hotel Stays.  Sorry.

So WHATS YOUR CHALLENGE?

		<description><![CDATA[Part 4 of 4 in our 3 Minute Challenge...
3 Minute Dip Challenge
This is not an easy task by any means since you will be using a very small muscle group to move your body through space.
Another factor that is going to limit the consistency of the results is how you perform the exercise. To make this equally fair for all we will be using a chair dip or bench dip. To execute this one, you need to have your arms behind you on one chair and your feet either on another chair or on the ground simply as pivot points not to be used for pushing and cheating.
This falls into both the muscle ENDURANCE and POWER challenges, since you will be using a small muscle to move your weight you need power to even get started and since it is such a small group exhaustion will come quickly and you will need muscle endurance for your triceps to keep going rep after rep for 3 minutes.  You will also be working your core stabilization, some front delts and even traps during this exercise.
Here are the requirements for this dip challenge:
1 or 2 chairs
Timer – here’s one for you http://e.ggtimer.com/3-minutes
State Your Name, Weight and Total Reps
Will power and muscle endurance

INCENTIVE:
To challenge yourself
Set a new standard for you to beat each month
Video this and post it on YouTube for all to see
Tag and link EmpoweredNutrition.com and add your link to the comments on this post (this helps build your YouTube traffic as well)
1 Night Hotel Stay - Do the Video version of your challenge and let us know and I will send you 1 Night Free Hotel Stay on me just for entering.  Come on its going to be fun, motivate you to beat yourself and others and I will give you a prize just for entering a free contest.
I look forward to seeing your results.  Even if you don’t do the whole video thing, post your results as a comment on the blog post and we will be sure to add you to our long list of Empowered Achievers.

		<description><![CDATA[Today is the big day in our 4 part series of bodyweight challenges...
3 Minute Squat Challenge
OK this one is probably going to feel a bit different than the other two.
Push Ups for Chest (front delts, triceps and core stabilization) was pretty tough, but more of a muscle ENDURANCE event
Chin Ups for back (rear delts and biceps) required more POWER than push ups and was probably the toughest of the three to complete even half the reps of Push Ups
Squats for Quads, Hamstrings, even calves (lower back and core stabilization) will be more of a SPEED STRENGTH challenge.
So far in Challenge #3 of 4 we have covered 3 different exercises and 3 different training techniques for 3 totally different outcomes even though we are limited to our bodyweight and our time (3 minutes).
The other constant is we are always moving our bodies thru space, rather than moving weights through space which is pound for pound always easier than moving the same bodyweight through space.  It’s weird but true.
Think about this.  You can do a Bench Press with say a max weight of 315 pounds.  Now if you were 315 pounds do you think you could do the same amount of reps with your feet on a bench for push ups?
It’s doubtful.  Even if you can, you aren’t really moving a true 315 pounds of bodyweight through space, you are moving a portion of your total bodyweight... and it’s tough.
So today’s 3 minute challenge is going to be really, really tough.  
You will need to have muscle ENDURANCE as you will no doubt be able to complete a fairly high amount of repetitions, but need to keep strict form.
You need to combine POWER since you are moving your entire bodyweight through space up and down repeatedly.
You need to have SPEED to set a pace that you can control for as long as you can to complete 3 minutes of body weight squats and yet to be the champion, to be your best you will need to move quickly and if you are a bigger guy or girl you will be challenged to keep that pace and strength going for the full three minutes.  I am certain that you will complete so many reps in one set that you will start to creep into the lactic acid threshold very quickly.
So here we go.  I wish you the best of luck and the most reps to you.
Everyone challenging themselves in this squat challenge that posts a video of their challenge and tagging or linking back to EmpoweredNutrition.com will receive a Hotel Night Stay on me.  Good to use anytime within 1 year.
How to Enter the Challenge:
Set a timer for 3 minutes.  Here’s one ready to go for 3 minutes for you http://e.ggtimer.com/3-minutes
Set up your video camera, flip cam, phone or laptop camera to start recording
Assume the position.  In this case, the Squat position.
Start the camera, start the timer and start the reps.
In your video please share your name, weight and the number of reps you completed.
Post a comment on this blog post and link to your video to build your YouTube traffic and I will send you 1 Night Hotel Stay just for tagging EmpoweredNutrition.com in your video.
That’s it.  3 minutes of Squats.  1 minute to add a tag and a link to EmpoweredNutrition.com to your video.  1 minute to load your video to YouTube.com.  30 seconds to add a comment with your video link on this post.  A total of 5-6 minutes and you get a FREE 1 Night Hotel Stay compliments of EmpoweredNutrition.com and me (Patrick McGuire)
I look forward to seeing your results.  Even if you don’t do the whole video thing, post your results as a comment on the blog post and we will be sure to add you to our long list of Empowered Achievers.
Here is the list of 3 Minute Challenges for you...
Challenge #1 – Push Ups
Challenge #2 – Chin Ups
Challenge #3 – Squats
Challenge #4 – Dips
For ideal results and the ability to track your results from all your nutrition and training you should set up a standard set of tests for yourself to see where you are today and where you are going and to make sure you are on track on the way.  After all you can’t drive to Disney without a road map, a game plan and some check points on the way.

		<description><![CDATA[This is part 2 of our 4 part series in the Empowered 3 minute challenge series.  Todays challenge is the...

3 Minute Chin Up Challenge



OK so before I say anything this is tough.  A lot tougher than yesterdays 3 Minute Push Up Challenge.  Check out some of the success stories for the 3 Minute Push Up Challenge CLICK HERE.

Alright so you probably already know the protocol.  Just in case here's the recap of the challenge details.

Get a timer.  Any timer, use your phone, egg timer or even try this online timer I set up for you, but before you click that link be ready to start, the timer starts as soon as you hit that page (you can always hit "refresh" to reset it).  Here it is for you >> http://e.ggtimer.com/3minutes

Be prepared in advance.  Here's what you need:

A bar, steel gurter or even a park play ground to do chin ups
a strong mind
a stronger will
grip strength of steel
and a fear of failure... believe me you will fail, this is next to one of the most impossible tasks I have ever attempted
I suggest having a towel handy to wipe the sweat from your hands so you don't slip and hurt yourself.

The Techniques

You have 2 techniques to choose from, both with mid grip width.  The two styles are Overhand and Underhand grips.  You need to pick on and use that technique each time you test yourself... oh and be sure to let us know which grip you used in the blog comments and your videos.

I like overhand shoulder width as it truly taxes the back and is a strong position for this test.  However for maximum stretch, power, strength and endurance the slightly narrower than shoulder width underhand grip will allow you to use more biceps, but be careful in this test they could burn out and be your weakest link.

OK its GO-time!

Read the rest and find out what today's prize is...



Let me know how you do with this one.  Add it to your training notes and compare this test again in the near future, say ever 30 - 60 days, or whenever you feel like it.

Here's some more images to help you visualize a wide chin up in case that is the method you choose to test yourself with wide grip chins.  

Again anyone who videos this one and either sends it to me for validation or post the video results to YouTube.com and tags or links EmpoweredNutrition.com will receive a 1 night hotel stay at one of thousands of 4 and 5 star hotels to choose from.

Challenge #1 - http://empowerednutrition.com/3-minute-push-up-challenge/

		<description><![CDATA[This is just part 1 of a 4 part series providing you with a pretty powerful tool you are going to love...

3 Minute Push Up Challenge

Its that simple.  how many push ups can you do in 3 minutes.

You have to be true to yourself and you have to be true to your best form possible.  Be forewarned as your peers and Empowered Insiders will call you out for cheating and lying.

I challenge you to perform the 3 Minute Push Up Challenge.

Warm up, get ready, drink some water...

Set your 3 minute egg timer or iPhone timer or heck if you need one, try this online timer...

>> http://e.ggtimer.com/3minutes

But before you click on that link, you better assume the position.

Do as many reps as you can in 3 minutes.  Rest as much as you need to, perform perfect or near perfect push ups and do your best.

Let us know how you did by posting your results as a comment below on this post.

I will tally all the results and on Friday.  Anyone who participates and posts a video tagged or linked back to this post for this or any of our four 3 minute challenges I will give a free night at any hotel they choose... I got thousands of hotels to choose from.  

That's right... anyone that can prove their worth and validate their 3 Minute Push Up Challenge abilities with a video, I will give you a 1 night hotel stay.  You will need a video camera and a YouTube account.  Be sure to tag it to Empowered Nutrition and add the link to your video in your comment with your "magic" number.

Anyone can enter, anyone can win... best of all its FREE!

I will also perform the 3 Minute Push Up Challenge tomorrow morning and let you know how I did.

This is a great way to test yourself every month to see how your performance is ever increasing.  It really validates if your weight loss is working by getting lighter and increasing your score or if your muscle building is working and your weight stays the same, even getting bigger and doing more reps each month.

If you want to drop some weight to enhance your score try these done for you fat loss meal plans over at www.EmpoweredNutritionMealPlans.com 

Have an empowered day and let us see just how impressive your 3 minute push ups are.

		<description><![CDATA[Patrick How Can I Be 100% Positive My Nutrition Program Is Working?


CHALLENGE YOURSELF!


That is a great question.  I get asked that a lot.  Now most of the time with any of our Empowered Nutrition Meal Plans and especially our Personalized Nutrition Programs it is very obvious and easily identified.

But how do you know the program is working for performance.  Well that is as easy as taking your measurements and comparing them to the last set of measurements.


Lately I have been on a bit of a journey myself.  You see I started back in the day wanting to be a competitive body builder.  Problem was I was skinny.  Great for non contact hockey, but eventually things got rough and I had to bulk up and still keep my skills on the ice.

Well I played at a high level of hockey and football, went thru the military and honestly breezed thru the QL bootcamps and became a competitive body builder.  All that was great and I literally set goals and accomplished them every season.  Now fast forward many years, 3 kids an awesome wifem a crazy busy business and lots of desk jockey time and I need to refocus, energize and motivate myself to get back at it and get in great physical performance conditioning.

So what motivates me to get back at it today?  These days its not just setting big goals, but its the little goals that are really making a difference in my comeback.  Its hard enough to find time to exercise these days.



The thing I found is working for me is to CHALLENGE myself to workout 1, 2, 3 even 4, 5 and 6 days a week.  I’m not doing too badly. I’m up to a consistent 3 sessions a week.  That’s pretty good considering March 1 2010 I was getting in 1 workout a week on a good week.


Now here is a little challenge I am enjoying these days.  I like to test myself each and every workout.  Literally I put together some exercises I want to see if I can do it and just go out and attack it.


I am not really into counting reps anymore or just yet again, so I am using my iPhone to time various challenges.

Here’s one that is real easy to implement and will be a real fast tell tale if your nutrition and training program is working for you.  I want you to take the test and report back to me in a comment below.


The Empowered 3 Minute Challenge


Set your timer to chime every 3 minutes


Do each exercise to failure, rest and go at it for 3 minutes total until the timer rings

Do a  light warm up.  I like a 3 minute run / walk program 1 minute run, 1 minute walk, 1 minute run, 1 minute walk, 1 minute run, 1 minute walk... total warm up 6 minutes and you should be ready to do a light stretch, but not too much, you do not want to burn any extra glycogen since you want to test yourself to a time failure with this Empowered 3 Minute Challenge.

Exercise #1 (3 minutes) – Bodyweight Squats
Rest 1 Minute
Exercise #2 (3 minutes) - Push Ups
Rest 1 Minute
Exercise #3 (3 minutes) – Chin Ups

That’s it.  Just hit 12-15 minutes of activity and when your done stretch it out and report back to me in the comments below.  Wait a month, focus on your nutrition, step up your exercise routine and test yourself again in a month and come on back and drop an update to your comment and let me know how you are doing.

Be sure to challenge yourself in everything you do.  Goals are only accomplished in a few ways.  One is to set goals and crush it.  The other is to challenge yourself to do better each and every day.

		<description><![CDATA[Top 10 Foods For Fat Loss


This is taken from My Q&#038;A from The Empowered Transformation Coaching Program


Empowered Member Question: "What are your top 10 must eat foods for fat loss?"


You can read it in full detail on the blog www.EmpoweredNutrition.com, but for now here is the list and a sentence to get you thinking.


Okay so Top 10 Foods For Fat Loss, this is not an easy task, there are so many things I want to do and say about foods for fat loss, for now, here we go.


Water (I had a bunch of Transformation Coaching clients tell me “that’s NOT food!”)


Okay fine so water isn’t “food” but it is the most important substance you can take into your body...  Water is 100% essential need to the body, and 100% essential for fat loss. If nothing else remember this the next time you chug down some water. "How do you think that fat leaves the body?" I will give you a hint, it doesn’t just magically disappear into nothing.


Eggs


My next choice is eggs, especially egg whites and omega 3 eggs. You know there is just nothing you can’t do with good old fashioned natural eggs...


Oatmeal


Oatmeal is a personal obsession, it is hard not to put it at one because of my pure love for it but nonetheless here it is, Oatmeal.  A lot of people get very confused about oatmeal, how to cook it, which brand to get...


EFA’s (Essential Fatty Acids)


Next up is EFA’s or essential fatty acids. These are essential.  Yeah I know, not really a food either, or are they?  They come from foods and are natural, so I consider EFA's empowerednutrition...


Berries


Berries. Particularly I would chose wild blueberries, raspberries and cranberries. Some of the best sources of anti-oxidants, fiber, low calories, easy to make anything taste good with and if you buy frozen you can save some cash...


Fish


I am NOT a huge fish fan for taste, but it IS one of the cleanest natrually occuring protein sources on the planet.  I still don't love fish (except fish sticks)...


GREENS


Greens is classified as turnips, spinach, collard, kale, I would even throw in broccoli into that mix. These are the true super foods.  Vitamins, minerals, fiber, antioxidants, low calorie, list goes on and on... Find out what I learned from Sam Graci about getting my veggies in...


Protein Powders (YES I know... not really a food... or is it!?)


Now that I gave you my “eat your veggies” talk, let's talk protein.  Specifically, Whey Protein. ...


Sweet Potato


Sweet potatoes deemed the “antidiabetic” food are filled with antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and of all starch foods are the easiest to digest. Did I mention they are really yummy?  ...


Butters


Yeah this sounds odd.. BUTTERS?... 



So with this list realize that if you ate nothing but what is on this list that you have a complete balanced diet right here. Complete amino acids, good fats, vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants, all right here in these 10 foods. Mix them up even and have real power meals, put the berries in the oatmeal, put the spinach in the omelets, it is endless.  Some people might say “hey you didn’t list this or that”, don’t get me wrong there are definitely some other great foods out there, but as far as I what I feel the average person can easily and should keep in their daily diet, these are my top 10 for today.

		<description><![CDATA[OK so today I want to cover a few things, lots of things, more things, totally too busy to get it all done, kind of crazy things... I mean lots and lots and lots of stuff...
Read the entire Article on Caffeine 
>> www.EmpoweredNutrition.com/caffeine-for-fat-loss-and-performance
Alright enough with the BUZZ talk for today.  Point blank I want to share some evidence on caffeine and how it can help and hinder your results for the gym, the office and the home.
This is quite typically the most over documented product in the world and the most blogged about topic on the net.  I am taking a more clinical approach to this blog post as I have given you some of the more simple evidence in past posts.  Today we get technical and with this information you will see how caffeine can enhance most other products and foods you may be using or ingesting.  Specifically I am always impressed with the good old "Grapefruit and Coffee Diet" or more accurately "Naringin and Caffeine" for fat loss.
Now to the technical stuff for Caffeine.
Caffeine is a Nonessential Micronutrient
 
My Summary
Caffeine is the most widely used "drug" in the world, consumed daily by millions in coffee, tea, and sodas. We use it for its stimulating effects, for a jolt of energy,  or in an attempt to fight fatigue — and it does work. What most coffee drinkers don't know is that caffeine mobilizes fat for use as energy, which is a great thing if you are exercising and trying to reduce fat but not so good if you spend your days sitting at a desk eating doughnuts. Caffeine is a standard part of many stimulating, weight-loss supplements.
Find out all the crazy goodness and badness of caffeine over at www.EmpoweredNutrition.com/caffeine-for-fat-loss-and-performance 
 
Other names for Caffeine: caffeine anhydrous... or as I like to say “the BUZZ”
 
Where to find Caffeine:
Caffeine is found naturally in coffee (most prominently), tea, chocolate, cola products, guarana (an herb), kola nut (another herb), and many "fat-burning" type weight-loss products.
 
In Today’s post when it comes to caffeine we cover... 
PERFORMANCE BENEFITS
 
Why athletes use Caffeine 
Ways that Caffeine can enhance Fat Loss:
Ways that Caffeine can enhance Energy &#038; Endurance:
HEALTH BENEFITS
 
Signs of Caffeine deficiency: 
 
Potential uses for Caffeine
 
Research indicates that Caffeine may be useful in the treatment of:
•	Migraine headaches
•	Fatigue/Weakness
•	Obesity
•	Senility
•	Depression
  
More about Caffeine
  
How it works 
A jolt of energy for the gym 
Performance enhancement 
More good news
How many of us can relate? 
A potent "stimulant" cocktail – referred to the E/C/A stack  
NOTES ON USAGE including...
 Amounts 
Important note
Timing
Energy jolt
Athletic performance
Synergists of Caffeine
Safety of Caffeine
Toxicity of Caffeine:  
Bans and restrictions:
Now, of course, a dose of common sense is very important when using caffeine or any stimulant. Drinking two entire pots of coffee by yourself in a day is just plain nonsense! There is truth in the old saying, "too much of a good thing can hurt ya." But in moderate amounts, up to three cups of coffee a day, caffeine has been shown in research to have no ill effects.
 
In conclusion
The stimulating facts about caffeine are that it's not "evil" and has in fact shown itself to be a valuable aid for increasing fat loss, boosting energy, and effectively helping athletes reach higher levels of performance.

		<description><![CDATA[Grapefruit For Fat Loss

Grapefruit is highly abundant in a component called Naringin.  It is this Naringin that makes the cragefruit diet work.  That and the caffeine from coffee, the restricted high glycemic and complex carbs and low calories.  But none the less Naringin is very effective for fat loss, medicinal assitance, performance boost and much more. 

This is a general overview.  The full article is available at www.EmpoweredNutrition.com/naringin-for-fat-loss

Naringin is a Nonessential Micronutrient 

My Summary

While Naringin has become most popular for its synergistic effects with other supplements, especially caffeine, it’s quickly gaining ground for its other potential benefits. In particular, its ability to support healing of our tissues after intense, grueling workouts. But make no mistake, the best reason to be interested in Naringin is to increase the effectiveness of the other supplements you may be taking.  Get the facts in this unique and interesting review of Grapefruit and Naringin.

Other names for Naringin: citrus bioflavonoid, grapefruit peel, orange peel

Where to find Naringin

Naringin is a flavonoid extracted from the inner peel of grapefruit and other citrus fruits (albeit in lower amounts).

Much of the early research into citrus-fruit flavonoids was funded by the Florida orange juice industry looking for a commercial use for orange peel. Grapefruit product manufacturers try to use fruits with low Naringin content since it causes the bitterness characteristic of citrus fruits. The food industry, however, uses Naringin as a bitter in “tonic” beverages, bitter chocolate, ice cream, and ices.



PERFORMANCE BENEFITS

Why athletes use Naringin

Interested in saving some cash by increasing the potency and lifespan of your supplements? Look no further. Naringin does just that and more.

Ways that Naringin can enhance Fat Loss:

Reduce hunger while potentially enhancing the flavor of foods by stimulating the taste buds

Ways that Naringin can enhance Longevity:

Extend the life of supplemented nutrients and increase their potency

HEALTH BENEFITS

Signs of Naringin deficiency: No deficiency conditions are known to exist.

Potential uses for Naringin: Research indicates that Naringin may be useful in the treatment of:

Herpes
Diabetes
Alcoholism
Heart failure
Chronic venous insufficiency
Bruising

		<description><![CDATA[I know you are busy and have a lot to do, but I also know that there is a good chance you suffer from back pain like I do.

I wanted to take a quick moment to give you some tips to help correct your back pain and create a “bullet proof back”, but to be honest my friend Eric does a much better job at it over at BulletProofYourBack.com

You can read the rest of my painful story on the Empowered Nutrition Blog www.EmpoweredNutrition.com  or you can go see the even more scary back pain experience that Eric has endured and the reason for this awesome program by visiting www.BulletProofYourBack.com 

The Number #1 Cause of Back Pain is Repetitive Stress

The #1 Way to Relieve the Back Pain is Proactive Stretching and Exercise... 

The #1 Reason Most People still suffer from Back Pain is NOT knowing exactly what exercises to do and what order, how much and how often. 

I have chronic back pain.  It’s so bad at times that I am laid out in bed for days.  I mean this problem is mostly due to sports injuries and lack of active rehab.  It’s ridiculous; you can literally see my hips shoot out and over by and inch or more and up more than an inch to the right side... always to the right, never the left.

Read the rest on the blog > www.EmpoweredNutrition.com
Or read Eric’s reason to Bullet Proof Your Back over at www.BulletProofYourBack.com 



I mean things get so bad with back pain that I can’t breath normally.  It feels like I can’t breath at all and I have to do other stupid things just to get dressed.

All my training was halted about 8 years ago due to a severe injury to my back.  I got that “shift” right in the middle of an exercise and bottom line is I never got back to training.  I was contemplating competing again and was leaner than ever 16 weeks out, so it would have been a good show and “POP” the back went out... I couldn’t fall down... I couldn’t get up... I couldn’t let go of the bar I was holding for fear of springing up and hurting it even more.

The worst part is that my whole life changed.  Back pain stopped me from doing the things I loved for several weeks and even months and still affects me today.  I couldn’t do the simple things I loved.  I couldn’t...

Hold my daughter (now 3 kids)
Workout
Stretch (yeah couldn’t even do that to fix the problem)
Prepare for the contest, photo shoots, calendars, nothing... 
Make money to pay the bills the way I was with my physique
Work my day job
Drive safely... I still did, but it was scary
Play with family and friends
Mountain bike... and I just got a $3000 bike then... 
I couldn’t do “squat”... literally squats to tie up my shoes, put on my socks or even squat to stretch with my own body weight.

My back pain was so bad that I couldn’t even pick up a bowl to help empty the dishwasher.  I tried and dropped it because the problem from my lower back caused me upper back and even grip strength problems.

Let’s just face it back pain sucks and if you are like me you will spend thousands of dollars on rehab, tools and devices like I did... I still use my inversion table for peace of mind and when I just don’t feel like stretching or am too lazy and tired to be proactive, but nothing beats active rehab.

If you have any back pain at all, you need to jump on it NOW.  Do NOT wait to fix it like I did.  That day will never come and it will be too late to avoid the PAIN... luckily its never to late to fix the problem and “bullet proof your back”.

If you suffer from back pain like I did then you need to visit my friend Eric Wong... like me he is a back pain sufferer with a very scary back pain story that you won’t even believe when you read it, but I know Eric, we had lunch the other day and I know his pain.  If you suffer from back pain visit Eric’s site and Bullet Proof Your Back Today.

Your partner in pain,

Patrick.

P.S.  If you order Eric’s program I will give you 5 Done-For-You Fast Fat Loss Meal Plans to fast track your successful back pain surgery without the needle and shave off the 10, 20 or 30+ pounds from your body that is causing 3 to 5x the pressure on your back.  All you need to do is send me a copy of your receipt and I will send you the link to get your BulletProofYourBack.com Fat Loss Meal Plans FREE.

Its time... Bullet Proof Your Back NOW! www.BulletProofYourBack.com 



I am honoured that you are an Empowered Insider.  Like you I suffer from the struggle of fat loss and keeping as much muscle as possible and the pains of joints and a bad back.

I am an affiliate of Eric Wong and as such when you order BulletProofYourBack.com using one of the links in this email I will be compensated for making a recommendation to such an amazing program.  Hey BulletProofYourBack.com is so good that even if Eric wasn’t my friend... was a complete jerk and I didn’t like him even to throw him under the bus that I would still recommend checking out BulletProofYourBack.com

		<description><![CDATA[OK so today's post was not starting out this way.. but I sure am glad it ended up this way...

Mix It Up - Fruits and Veggies

Yeah, oddly enough I was not going to talk about nutrition, I was doing some research today on the link between obesity and cancer.  Then in a sidebar I saw this ad and its link.  It was dancing fruit it was cool... it caught my eye.

I clicked on the ad and got to a pretty cool sight.  I think you will agree its pretty cool and provides lots of killer free simple ways to incorporate more fruits and veggies into your life.  If you already have our "Done-For-You Fat Loss Meal Plans" or one of our Personalized Nutrition Programs, then you know we LOVE Fruits and Veggies.

Most people (including lay nutritionists) will avoid fruits like the plague for weight loss, but in reality they are very powerful fat loss tools when combined with the right foods in the right ratios and at the right times.  Eating a fruit rich diet increases long term success of any program.

Performance athletes are cringing at these words right now.  Especially the body builders since they run the opposite direction when they hear the word fruit.  However when you use fruit to your advantage during a cutting or fat loss cycle, when it comes time to shred it up, it is easy and fast.

Replace your "Wet" Fruits Carbs with "Dry" Grain Carbs...

This will expedite the rapid fat loss and water loss that is so typically hard to shed at the end of a contest or fat loss strategy.

Now I wanted to highlight something amazing about this site I am pumped up about... oh yeah there is no "kick back" or commission for this blantant site promotion... they don't even sell anything its all FREE!

Visit www.FruitsAndVeggies.ca

The site is super cool, looks great and has tons of free fruit and veggie tools that work wonders for you and your family.  Cool Tools include...

Fruit of the Month
Veggie of the Month
Meal Planner
Top 10 Reasons
Fruits A to Z
Veggies A to Z
and a whole lot more...

Really this is cool and it looks cool too.  Go check it out and get some even more creative nutrition ideas from FruitsAndVeggies.ca, and remember to eat your proteins and fats too.

I mean really check out this bit I grabbed from one of thier pages (http://fruitsandveggies.ca/en/fruits-veggies-primer/variety-colours).

VARIETY

Eating a serving of fruits and veggies from each colour group is one way to add variety to your diet. Each colour group represents a different combination of nutrients. So, the more colours you can put on your plate, the better.

COLOURS

Fruits and vegetables can be divided into five colour groups: 

[veggie color chart image: Red, Yellow/Orange, Green, Blue/Purple, White/Tan/Brown]

Try to include at least 1 serving from each colour group every day.
Try new fruits and veggies! Choose a variety of colours!
Keep a copy of the Colour Tracking Chart on the fridge, at work or in your grocery bag.
Write down what you eat and add up the number of colours each week.
Download Your Colour Chart

We really need more of these types of resources out there.  Many of you already know that we recommend compliance charts like the one you can download above and if you are in our Empowered Coaching (we are about to open another round of Transformation Coaching and Contest Coaching Slots shortly) programs you already have several that you are already putting to work in your daily routine.

I think this is an awesome site and since it is a government initiative I hope they keep funding it many years to come and save people from boredom with fruits and veggies and serious long term health issues.

Thanks FruitsAndVeggies.ca ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today is a great day for fitness, fat loss and fight fans.  Well really Saturday was, but I was without internet access all weekend.

GSP, UFC, Empowered and TACFIT!

I have to say it was a great day as my fellow Canadian Georges St. Pierre won his title defense against Dan Hardy from the UK.

Why is it a great day for Empowered Nutrition?

Well Georges clearly showed up, bigger, faster, stronger and leaner than ever before, but still made the same weight.  This is significant as he made it public that he hired a personal chef to take care of his food prep for 12 weeks leading to the contest.

What!?!  Israeli Special Forces?

No GSP did not get attacked (who in thier right mid would try and mug this guy) but he did incorporate every bit of traning he could to be the most rounded performance athlete in the world and it showed on Saturday night when he won his title defense.

I want you to take the same approach as Georges and his fellow UFC athletes and focus on nutrition and incorporate many aspects of training into your fat loss, muscle building and performance programs.

I got one way to help you to do exactly that and it is free for another 12 hours, then its gone.  Scott Sonnen has given access to Empowered Nutrition Insiders to get a FREE TACFIT Israeli Special Forces Challenge Video and Workout, but at midnight its gone.

I personally cannot think of a time when I was in better shape then when I was coming off of a power lifting / body building phase and in the military with the Royal Canadian Armored Corps.  I could do it all.  I could run, swim, fight and do it for 18 hours a day at full speed.

Now that said I was also in the best shape of my life 2 other times... during my years as a hockey player and body building and during my years with the NFC Champion football team as a middle linebacker just after getting ready for a bodybuilding competition.

Its all about mixing it up and being able to use ALL the tools you have been given and developing over the years.  So I want you to mix it up a bit more by adding this free TACFIT Isreali Special Forces Challenge to your program.

Here's how you can mix it up and still stay on track for your primary goals.

Get TACFIT Free >> www.GetTACFIT.info

I got 2 ways to make TACFIT work for you

1. Train as normal and add a 20 minute TACFIT sequence at the end of your regular training program
2. Train as normal and on your training days add the 20 minute TACFIT program as an active rest day

I can tell you this TACFIT is not easy and its ONLY 4 unique moves to get started with that will leave you feeling tired and energized at the same time.  Its great and works on total bodyweight movements that include the explosive dynamic actions and short rest training.

Best of all TACFIT can be done in your hotel room, office or gym in the space of a large beach towel and will increase your fat loss nutrition program results.

I accepted the TACFIT mission and le tme tell you the first day (Friday... TACFIT CRUSHED ME) and I fully intend to send you a message saying I CRUSHED TACFIT real soon.

Get TACFIT Workout and Video Today Free >> www.GetTACFIT.info 

If you choose to accept the mission, report in and see what your team mates are saying and let us know your mission details >> http://EmpoweredNutrition.com/I-Crushed-TACFIT ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hey, I want to have some fun with my friends over at TACFIT.

I need your help on this mission. 

I have personally been pretty lax these days when it comes to actually training.  Some of you know I am in the midst of re-writing my own fatness fitness program.

Let's just say with 3 kids (all under 6), a growing online and very established offline nutrition business, consulting to many organizations and sitting on several boards of directors all the while over the last 12 years sorting my way in and out and through partners that lack the long term vision and the pain threshold I put myself thru has needless to say wreaked havoc on my body and fitness.

Sure I am more fit than most, but reality is I am totally unfit and nowhere near where I want to be, let alone mention it to you... but I am NOT fit, just OK.

Why do I tell you all this?

I am going to grab the free TACFIT Israeli Special Forces Workout and put it to the test tonight myself.

I encourage you to do the same.

Your Mission if you choose to accept it:

Grab Your FREE TACFIT Video and Workout 

>> www.GetTACFIT.info

Watch the Israeli TACFIT Video and Read the Workout

Attack the Israeli Special Forces Workout Tonight and Report Back with a Comment Below.

I am going to do the same and report back to you.  The mission is mine...

Do you accept this Mission to CRUSH the TACFIT Workout?

www.GetTACFIT.info before the FREE Video and Workout are gone!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[OK so laughter may or may not MAKE you Lose Weight or even more desireable LOSE FAT, but it just might and if its that 0.3% difference to a successful transformation, then you have to at least try it.

Laughter is fun.  Its contagious, its powerful, its effective, and its just better than crying.

There are millions of cells in you body. Think of them as soldiers.  Now if I was going to war I would like to have 1 million positive minded and relatively happy soldiers going to war with me.

I mean the alternative is 1 million grumpy bummed out soldiers being forced to fight for your cause... hmm, lots of lost battles in history can be tied to this type of army.  the victors aren't always the best equipped but those that are positive in vision and ultimately outcome.

I want you to go into battle with a great vision (the ultimate you, ultimate transformation), a great leader (you) and a million happy little trigger happy fat annihilating soldiers (your cells).

And to help you out, I got a little added not so nutrition or exercise related video for you...

[great video inserted into the post, you are going to love this one - http://empowerednutrition.com/laugh-to-lose-fat-and-feel-great]

Hey if Robin Williams can do it as "Patch" (a real life depressive turned fit and healthy doctor of laughter not medicine), then you can to!

Be positive, be focused, have fun and have a laugh.

Oh yeah... did a mention that some studies have tracked a good laugh to burn 20-50 calories!? That is 50 calories I don't need to cut out of the diet or stand on a treadmill for.  So LAUGH it Up and LOSE!

If you haven't already started your fat loss battle plan I encourage you to make Personalized Nutrition Program the first wave of attacks on fat.  Don't sit back idly and defend, you will never win the war on fat that way.  ATTACK, ATTACK, ATTACK!!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I Got Grilled By Nick Nilsson!

Yeah you read it...

I GOT GRILLED!

Nick Nilsson, and I have been bashing it back and forth, nutrition versus exercise and its all good.

In fact we both agree that they are both integral to a successful fat loss and muscle building program.

Nick fully supports the Nutrition side of things.  I completely believe that if you are going to train you might as well get the best [Check out Metabolic Surge Program Click Here].  Like me, Nick believes you need to turn to a coach to maximize your results.  I mean for example the Olympics recently happened and some of the athletes had as many as 6 coaches... just for one sport... and guess what.  Some of them won medals!

We had a few glitches at the start (my call dropped) but definitely listen in...we covered a LOT of good stuff.

- the ins and outs of how his personalized nutrition programs work and what they can do for you
- should you eat first thing in the morning before training
- what's the best snack for on-the-go fat loss eating
- can specific foods be used to target specific bodyparts?
- do you HAVE to eat first thing in the morning in order to lose fat effectively?
- is "afterburn" fat-loss real and does it stop if you eat after training?
- Get all the info here!

Listen to Nick Grill me (Patrick) CLICK  the LINK >> http://attendthisevent.com/?eventID=11814357

If you are here to read or listen in to this interview where Nick Nilsson grills me about my Personalized Nutrition Programs and Nutrition Strategies.  I suggest that you add a solid workout program to your Empowered Nutrition and if you want to maximize fat burning and muscle building then you should check out Nick's program Metabolic Surge Program >> www.MetabolicSurgeProgram.com]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today I am instituting a global call to action.  Its contest time.  Empowered Nutrition is hosting a Social Proof Project: Fat Loss Super Shakes and Smoothies Contest.  

Everybody that submits a recipe (as a comment) will receive a copy of the Social Proof Project: Fat Loss Super Shakes and Smoothies Recipe eBook.

Top 10 (declared by rely comments and kudos by the community) will be short tracked like the Canadian Olympic Hockey Teams and move to Semi Finals (Top 5) to be judged, with ingredients purchased, made and drank live on video for your personal pleasure.

The Top 5 Winners will receive $300 in Grocery Gift Cards and everyone that participates by submitting a recipe will get a copy of the Social Proof Project: Fat Loss Super Shakes and Smoothies eBook with hard copies available at cost upon request.

Its going to be amazing... slightly scary what I might have to drink, but I will do it regardless... just be gentle with me, I'm fragile with a weak stomach.

Check it out, enter early, enter often, tell your friends to come and reply comment on your recipe to increase your odds of winning. http://EmpoweredNutrition.com/fat-loss-super-shake-contest]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[101 Sneaky Weight Loss Tips - REVIEWED

Jeff Anderson asked me to review his eBook as a friend.  We often bounce things off each other so I thought sure... I quickly realized this could easily be 101 Sneaky Weight Loss Tips from Empowered Nutrition.  I can't NOT suggest you read 101 Sneaky Weight Loss Tips... its too good to miss.

Included is 3 Support Audios on Nutrition, Exercise and Motivation AND 2 Super Bonus items, an eBook Food Label Secrets Revealed and another Audio with Dr. Cory Holly and his wife the super fit Tracey Holly.

At the end of this link, I provide a very special limited time Empowered Insiders link to save some dough if you choose to get 101 Sneaky Weight Loss Tips.  The Empowered Nutrition Insiders Special is soo low I can't post it... but its over Sunday at noon CST.]]></description>
