Three weeks..

Goal setting is all about setting S.M.A.R.T. goals -- and T stands for "Time line". Athletes peak for National Championships, Trials and World events. Just because you're training for fat loss or to look better naked - doesn't change the fact that DEADLINES are extremely effective tools.

For someone interested in changing their physique, goal setting with deadlines is just as important.

A great idea would be to set your next goal for the unofficial end of summer - the Labor Day weekend (first weekend in September). This is currently just over three weeks away.

So if you're looking a little flabby this weekend or feeling a little embarrassed about your physique -- you can still make amazing changes. It's never too late. This is an opportunity for you to look completely shredded - rock hard legs and abs by Summer's end.

But you still need to start now.

Here's the fat loss basics:
  1. You need to create a caloric deficit - no two ways about it - you must burn more than you consume.

  2. The most effective way to create that deficit is to use a combination of diet and exercise

  3. Your diet should consist of lean proteins, fruits and vegetables. Keep starches and refined carbs to a minimum. Keep your fluid intake high (water only), and try to eat at least 4-5 small meals per day. This will help maintain blood sugar levels and keep you from blowing your diet.

  4. Exercise - interval training and metabolic resistance training will provide the most bang-for-your buck.

  5. Try to exercise at least six days per week - three days of interval based cardio and three days of metabolic resistance training.

If you are ready to really ramp it up and change your body forever - get over to Warp Speed Fat Loss and get started on that program. That program has shown results of 8.5lbs in seven days, 12lbs in two weeks, and 17lbs in 28 days. The good news is - it's an instant download and you can start it today!

It's three weeks to Labor Day weekend. It's time to step it up.
