Confused by this picture? Don’t be. Just watch the short presentation above to
learn how simple it really is to manipulate carbs and force your body to burn fat.
Understanding Carbohydrates And The 3 Usage & Storage “Stages” That Take Place Inside In Your Body…
Stage 1: Immediate Energy Needs: Digestion begins in the mouth and carbohydrates are quickly made available for energy needs or stored for later use.
Stage 2: Storage in the Muscle & Liver: Your body stores carbohydrates as glycogen in the muscle and the liver as a source of energy for movement and daily function. The amount of these stores equates to the amount of muscle on one’s body. Storage continues until the muscle and/or liver is full.
Stage 3: Spillover (Storing Fat): When energy intake is abundant and little or no energy is expended, muscle and liver stores over fill, and the body starts storing the unused energy as fat.
Seems simple. Right?
WRONG.
Want to discover how you can keep all of your fat burning hormones at peak levels and prevent your metabolic triggers from adapting and blocking your fat loss? The Free Video above reveals precisely why macro-patterning your carbs can keep you lean for life.
Carb manipulation and macro-patterning is also the hidden secret to re-programming your body to stop losing things like water and muscle and actually forces your metabolism to continuously find and burn stubborn body fat.
Plus, it actually can make fat loss fun to learn and apply too.
Now you can keep your body burning and your metabolism happy at the same exact time!
Pretty cool, huh?
My wife Karen and I laughed our a** off when we saw this cartoon. Listen, it doesn’t have to be this way! Forget about the scale.
If you start using and applying a macro-patterning lifestyle you can just say “no” to scales and diets and say “yes” to being a life-long fat burner.

If You’re Adding Resistance to Your Cardio Machine, YES!
As a former bodybuilder who went on to own a gym, I have spent more than my share of time around cardio and weight machines.
The one thing that always amazes me is how people will take a perfectly effective, scientifically designed, thoroughly adequate exercise machine and adapt it thinking “more is more.”
In fact, more is more is one of the worst philosophies to have when exercising because, in fact, when you do it right less is actually more.
Less time, less effort, less weight, less often – IF you follow the rules and give it your all each time.
Unfortunately, everyone is so busy multi-tasking in every other part of their lives – eating while in the car, taking a conference call on your morning commute, with multiple windows open on every computer screen – that we naturally think we must do the same at the gym.
So I see people barely using any weight and trying to perform an exercise while talking on the cell phone. They use the gym more as a time to socialize than for what they are meant to do there: lift weights!
Others do the same workout every time (with no break in the routine): they come in and go down the circuit of machines in the same order and then decide, “Well, that’s it; workout’s over and I feel good! Time for a post-workout smoothie…”
Resistance training (free weights, stationary weight machine, etc.) can be a fabulous way to build muscle, boost your metabolism, increase toned muscle mass and increase your overall health.
Likewise, cardio exercise (Stairmaster, exercise cycle, treadmill, etc.) can increase your heart rate, burn fat and expend calories quickly.
So naturally, you might think, combining the two is the surest way to both build muscle and burn fat, get your heart rate up and expend lots of calories fast. But, in fact, doing more when it comes to resistance and cardio actually produces fewer results.
That’s because when exercising you should put like with like.
In other words, a great resistance workout can produce much better results when you concentrate purely on resistance, focusing on the tension of the weight, the number of sets and reps, really feeling the burn and completely focused on those main goals of resistance, i.e. building muscle and boosting metabolism.
Likewise, a great cardiovascular workout should focus strictly on cardio to produce maximum results.
The last thing you want to be doing while running around the neighborhood is fiddling with your weight straps or figuring out how to drink from your water bottle in one hand while adjusting your easy-grip, five- pound barbells in the other!
So when it comes to exercise, put like with like; resistance, resistance, resistance, cardio, cardio, cardio – not resistance, cardio, resistance or cardio, resistance, cardio.
I see this drastic mistake at the gym all the time.
I witness people, especially women, on a stair stepper machine, who add resistance thinking, “Wow, my butt (glutes) and legs are getting a hard workout.”
And they are, but the fact of the matter is this is THE most counterproductive way to perform cardio.
In fact, this is using a method of weight training called “time under tension” and what it will do is force the body to store more glycogen – and possibly fat – to the lower half of your body—actually making your butt bigger, because your body has to know how to anticipate the load, so the body says, “We need help; store more there!”
And that sure isn’t the reason why you are doing cardio in the first place, right?
So remember to use no resistance when doing cardio and only apply resistance when weight-training. One of the best methods I teach my clients to burn the most amount of fat is to do a method called H.I.I.T. (High Intensity Interval Training) or fat burning intervals.
The treadmill should always be set with no incline and if you use other exercises remember to stay away from resistance or any type of tension when doing cardio.
ALWAYS make sure to do weight training first and cardio last to get the most fat burning results out of your workout.
Remember, like with like: resistance with resistance, cardio with cardio for the most effective results every time.

Now that you understand “time under tension”, just hit the “like” button below and we’ll be back in a couple days with THE absolute best approach to interval training and cardio.
Conclusion: 25 people or more hit the “like” button = The 3 most powerful, proven, and effective Pillars of Attacking Body Fat with the GL-12 interval cycling workouts. (coming your way in the next few days).
A growing body of evidence and real-world results from our members and clients show that the benefits of our high-speed workouts extend far beyond our cardiovascular system and muscles – to our biochemistry and even our brain.
Here are 5 very powerful reasons to use Get Lean In 12 workouts to go fast on a regular basis.
1- GL12 workouts change your hormones.
Several key studies indicate that a series of 20 to 30 second sprints sharply increased HGH (human growth hormone) in the body while exercising – and also for roughly 2 hours AFTER a workout.
Once the Get Lean In 12 HGH is released, it will target body fat like a wood burning furnace.
How do you know if you’re going hard enough to produce fat-blasting HGH levels?
Here are some guidelines:
lack of oxygen and feeling out of breath (duh!)
muscle burn (lactic acid overload)
increase in body temp or breaking a serious sweat
you must “feel the pain” (also known as adrenal response).
We’ve seen many students and members lose up to 20 pounds in eight weeks using Get Lean In 12 intervals/sprints.
2- GL12 gets you fitter, faster.
Although Get Lean In 12 intervals are only part of a well-balanced fitness program and the results sometimes sound to good to be true…they are THE most important part of your regimen if you want quick results.
Researchers from 2 published journals found that GL12 sprinting for 20 to 30 seconds performed 3 times a week for 20 minutes or less produced the same results as 3 endurance (the slow boring stuff) cycling sessions, each of which lasted 90 minutes to 2 hours.
Yikes. Now that’s what we call a great R.O.I. (Return On Investment)
In other words, just one hour of Get Lean In 12 produced what would take up to 6 hours of the normal, boring, textbook, target heart rate cardio.
Also, after just 2 weeks, or six total GL12 workouts, subjects increased their endurance by 100% and they began using oxygen more efficiently to burn fuels.
This explains why sprinters are so lean and muscular. They automatically preserve muscle and burn more fat because of their training protocol.
Caution: the decision to go all out and push yourself to these limits should be cleared by your doctor first. It’s a process and a journey – NOT an event.
3- Adding GL12 intensity to your regimen will burn more calories-especially fat calories.
Although traditional, low-intensity, target heart rate exercise gets a lot of publicity…sprint – speed type workouts actually deliver better, overall fat-loss results.
Here’s why: although you can maintain lower intensity workouts for longer periods of time (1 hour or more) and it allows you to supposedly burn a greater percentage of fat calories (as opposed to carbs or stored glycogen)…minute for minute, the slow stuff burns substantially fewer total calories, therefore fewer fat calories as well.
All this indicates is that adding GL12 intervals to your fitness program also conditions your body to burn more fat during moderate-intensity exercise, as well.
In fact, subjects who engaged in these types of workouts increased the amount of fat they burned 36% more than those who engaged in moderate intensity exercise. It’s because GL12 workouts produce more mitochondria (you body’s cellular fat-burning powerhouse).
Lastly, GL12 activates more fast-twitch fibers, which is something that does NOT happen with the slow, boring cardio workouts.
4- Research shows GL12 workouts fuel your mind and might make you smarter.
Performing Get Lean In 12 workouts is the catalyst for your brain to produce more dopamine and serotonin. These are brain transmitters that reduce stress during exercise and other activities.
There is also some evidence suggesting that GL-12 can increase the amount of Catecholamine your brain produces. These are neurotransmitters found in the amino acid tyrosine which help the body stay sharp during prolonged periods of work, sleep deprivation, and other stressful situations….like life itself!
In other words, when you “Get Lean In 12” you won’t feel lethargic after lunch anymore. Is this the perfect synergy between the brain and the body? Quite possibly – yes.
5- GL12 will put a spring in your step.
Have you ever noticed how kids have non-stop energy, can go alllllll day long without stopping and the last thing they want to do is sleep? We always say, “I wish I still had energy like that, where do they get it?”
I’ll tell you where. Just watch em run around like they have the ‘need for speed’ in their everyday activities. Their bodies are loaded with hormones that your body could be suppressing from traditional, outdated, boring methods.
We all start to lose that drive by the time we hit our 20s and it just gets worse as we age.
Get Lean In 12 workouts 3 to 5 times a week will create new confidence and an appreciation for the spectacular engine that God had given us called our body.
Your body is supposed to have its engine revved up on weekly basis…so put a GL-12 spring in your step today.
Conclusion
So, if you have an interest in producing more fat-burning HGH (human growth hormone), cutting your exercise time in half, burning more fat calories while you go about your everyday activities, cultivating a sharper mind and more mental energy, and having the energy of a 5 year old…then what are you waiting for?
Get Lean In 12 today.
If you think you’ll get bored of the sprinting or you have limitations, just change it up.
You can use GL-12 bursts to do dozens of different exercises; mountain climbers, jump rope, standing jump-squats, squat thrusts, high-step sprints…you get the idea.
Don’t be afraid to change it up. Variety is a spice of life.
