We’re trying something new. First we will podcast our show in it’s entirety then we’ll release just the guest interviews during the week. So please click PLAY to listen to Dr. Fitness and the Fat Guy and learn all about how to lose weight while Doing Lunch with Roger Troy Wilson.

Roger was a millionaire by 41 and retired. He might of been rich but he was also extremely overweight. He tipped the scales at over 2 Fat Guys or almost 5 Kelly Ripa’s, in fact he weighed

430 pounds. He says he had a 62 inch waist when he was at his heaviest. Which by the way, is taller than Dr Fitness. He tried every diet, he even had his wife gain weight in order to join Weight Watchers so he could get their diet plan.

Then, almost miraculously, he discovered the start of an eating program that might work for him. He ate his son’s frozen

grapes and then swapped them for his nightly bags of chips and dip. In only a few weeks he had lost 20 pounds. Little by little he started eating loads of fruits, vegetables and lean meats…Even starchy vegetables – the ones the low-carb plans

didn’t allow. He was consuming 1000’s of calories a day, more than any diet had allowed. Better yet? There were no points, no food scales, no reading labels or counting carbs. All real foods and REAL portions. Roger stumbled on a diet that made

him“Feel Full Faster and Longer”. His book, Lets Do Lunch, shares his story and his recommendation for the foods you should be eating in order to lose weight. these are foods that bypass the stomach and go right to the colon.

An amazing weight loss story - Roger has lost 230 pounds and kept them off for years now. He is offering Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy listeners a special deal if you mention us when you order. Please go to Roger’s website www.letsdolunch.com for lots of great info and to order his book.

Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy Interview Serious Strength Training Expert And Author of The Slow Burn Fitness Revolution Fred Hahn

Wednesday, February 20th, 2008

 
icon for podpress  Fred Haghn Serious Strength Training Interview: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

We’re trying something new. First we will podcast our show in it’s entirety then we’ll release just the guest interviews during the week. So please click the PLAY  button to listen to Dr. Fitness and the Fat Guy learn all about strength training from Fred Hahn, author of the best selling book The Slow Burn Fitness Revolution.

Slow Burn exercise stimulates positive adaptations to every aspect of your body including the cardiovascular system. Once stimulated, the body needs time, roughly 48-96 hours, to produce the benefits. Science indicates that if the quality of an exercise program is high, 2 sessions a week of exercise is more than adequate to cause optimal positive results. More than three sessions produces little added physical benefits.

Fred says that exercise itself doesn’t make you “fit” or healthy. That it is sort of a necessary evil. The body becomes healthier if the exercise stimulus is adequate and if rest and recovery is allowed for. Quality not quantity is the key. That’s why you can get such a great productive effective work out in such a short time with Fred’s Slow Burn method .

During the show, Fred also talked about his upcoming new book about Childhood Obesity. He feels that eating too much sugar is a big part of the problem. For more information about Fred and his Slow Burn technique please go to his website www.seriousstrength.com
