In January, I was struggling taking off some holiday weight. I subscribe to Geoff Neupert's mail list. Around this time, he was marketing Kettlebell Burn Extreme. I told myself, it's less than a tank of gas and if I buy it I know I'll stick to it. So I pulled out the credit card and pulled the trigger.
Best fitness investment I made. 26 days in, down 15.4 lbs. That's 7 kg ! Didn't lose strength and am the lightest I've been in 6 years! Have a 4 pack and am on my way to a 5!
I always knew it was 80% diet, but when you really incorporate it, it's more like 90%. It's timing and portion control. I realized, I didn't need to eat 12 oz. steak all at once. It's easier to fast 36 hours vs. 24 hours. I know that sounds funny, but when I fast 24 hours, I lose self control and just shove food in my mouth. When I do it 36, I'm never hungry in the morning so I have more control breaking the fast. The low carb days are harder than the fasting.
The workouts are simple, short and sweet. Challenging, but not killers. You'll breathe heavy, but not in the fetal position on the floor whimpering for your mother.
The recovery method, gulp, well let's put it this way. It's not fun especially in the winter, but it works. I have a little soreness in my knee from an old injury, that has vanished since I incorporated it. This is an absolute necessity. People look at me like I'm crazy when I explain it. I tell them man has gotten a little too comfortable. Being a little uncomfortable from time to time is a great thing.
Anyway, hats off to Geoff. I've used two of his products and they've worked wonders. He's a genius.
