Can you see why I'm so excited? I just finished eating
dinner at the Market Street Grill in
San Francisco with a guy who is 20+ years older then me and
could still kick my butt in the gym not to mention the
stage.
The guy standing next to me is Scott Hults of
BodybuildingSenior.com He's also my biggest fan
and one of the most frequent posters on
Discussbodybuilding.com. Scott started bodybuilding
one day 15 years ago when he decided at age 50 (or around
that) that he wasn't going to let genetics determine his
fate. You'll have to ask him for the full story.
He really got into bodybuilding at age 61 when his wife said
he should do a show. He thought for minute and said
why not!
11 trophies later, a website, a fan base and several shows
scheduled for this year, Scott is even training with some 19
year old prodigy.
Really think about Scott's situation.
He's an older bodybuilder, who is dieting, training,
competing, doing the weights, doing the cardio and is
VERY serious about what he does. You've got to
wonder...
If he can do it can you? Absolutely. The word
'inspirational' fits Scott. I've received several
questions from older individuals who want to know if it's
even worth working about at age 50+? The answer is a
resounding YES. If you take a look at Scott's site,
you'll see his full color gallery of current bodybuilding
photos.

10 Things You Must Know About
Fat Loss by Gary Matthews
Ever wondered why there are so many diets around out
there and people are just getting fatter and fatter. We now
know that fad and repeat dieting don't work, so what does!
I have put together 10 fat loss tips below and if
followed will make things a lot easier for you on your road
to fat loss.
Lets have a look at a few:
Burn Fat: Lift Weights - Muscle determines the speed
of your metabolism - the speed of your metabolism depends on
how much muscle you have. That's why men burn fat faster
than women... They have more muscle. Women could burn fat
faster if they had more muscle.
Women are scared to lift weights because they will get
bigger muscles!
If only this was were the case. Women do not have the
hormone levels to build big muscles, however they can
replace the muscle tissue lost through years of crazy
dieting, irregular eating habits and age.
Yes everybody is losing muscle, every year; every decade
because we are getting older, but only people who let their
muscles waste away have slower metabolisms as they get
older.
Keep your muscles and keep your fat burning machine!
The only way to do this is get strong and stay strong.
Toss The Scales - The scales tell you none of the
things you need to know about your body and everything you
don't.
They don't tell you how much fat you have under your skin,
they don't tell you how much skin for that matter. The
scales can't tell you how much fluid is in your body.
What your bones weigh and most importantly, how much muscle
you have? However, weighing yourself can turn a perfectly
good day into a miserable day?
Don't let an inanimate, household item determine what kind
of day you will have! They are not accurate so throw them
away.
Muscle Vs Fat - Muscle weighs two times as much as
fat yet takes up half the space. Muscle is responsible for
burning fat. Muscle is small when compared with fat.
Muscle never hangs off your body in unsightly lumps.
Muscle looks toned, tight, strong and lean. Muscle is tight
and hard to the touch and muscle is heavy. Fat is lumpy and
soft and flabby, fat takes up a lot of space, fat hangs off
your body. Fat is also soft to the touch and does not weigh
as much as muscle.
Always Eat Breakfast - Research has concluded that
having breakfast is important to kick-start the metabolism
for the day, the body slows down whilst sleeping and food
first thing in the morning actually awakens the body ready
for the rest of the day.
Also try eating more fibre at this time as it helps the
digestive system work more effectively and will help keep
the blood sugar levels spread evenly throughout the day.
Don't Cut Back On Calories - Food has a heating
effect on the body increasing your metabolic rate; don't eat
less than 1200 calories, as this will throw the body into a
starvation mode. Your metabolism will then slow down to
conserve the calories that you do have.
Try to avoid fad diets if possible as they restrict or
reduce the nutrients flowing to the body, which in turn
slows down the metabolic rate.
Eat Small Regular Meals - Eat five or six small meals
a day as this will trick the body into thinking that there
is an abundance of food and will stop your metabolism from
slowing down, keeping your sugar levels at a normal level
and this will stop you overeating.
Try eating the majority of your food earlier in the day, as
the majority of the calories will be burned up while you are
awake and active.
Count Calories - The way to keep track of weight loss
is to buy a calorie counter and record your daily calorie
intake for a week. Average out your calories for the day and
then decrease the calories by 300 - 500 (No More) then gauge
what happens.
By decreasing the amount of calories per day to this amount
you should start losing weight. Don't go any lower; check
the mirror as well as the scales to judge your progress.
Don't Repeat Diet - Research shows repeated dieting
actually makes it harder to lose weight and easier to put it
on because when you dump the diet and return to normal
eating habits the drop in metabolic rate caused by the diet
means that your old habits actually represent an excess in
calories.
Not only do you regain the fat stores just lost, but also
you may even gain an extra bit. If you find your weight loss
starting to slow or stop over a period of time, increase
your walking pace a little or throw in a couple of hills
along your route.
Keep Track Of Fats - This may appear difficult to
maintain and calculate but it isn't. On nearly all packaged
food these days there is a nutritional label with a fat
indicator per 100gms of that particular food.
What your looking for here is a figure below 10 gms and
nearing 5 gms would be the ideal. So purchasing and
consuming foods around this range you'll be on your weight
loss target.
The Low down On Fats - It is stored in the fat cells
of the body. The number of fat cells is estimated to be
around 50 billion for the average person. It can be up to
100 billion for the obese person.
Fat cells are like storage tanks of energy to be used for
later use. It has been shown that obese people who binge eat
may stimulate baby fat cells to sprout to increase the
number of fat cells.
Believe me, once you start applying these 10 tips to your
everyday weight loss regime you will start to notice the
difference in a short period of time.Gary Matthews is the author of the popular
