Alcohol and Me
Okay, so it’s probably not what you expected.
Does alcohol really make a difference in your attempt to lose body fat after our fat-reducing workouts at Robert Belley Fitness?
Well,…
When you drink alcohol, your liver has to process that as concern numero uno.
Everything else comes second… far second.
So whatever you eat just sits in your stomach, like late nite menu’s, after hours Chinese food, chips, dips, ice cream all of it.
Falls right onto your ass, back of your arms, belly button area, under the chin, you get the idea.
Sooooooooooo…
Are you gonna keep drinking on the weekends or having your nightly glass of wine sabotaging your minimalist meals and rice cakes all week?
I sure as hell wouldn’t if I had something I wanted to lose.
So make a choice, and start taking the steps to get it accomplished.
I believe in you,
if you believe in yourself.

I Love My Ass!
Okay, so maybe you’re not screaming from the rooftops that you love your ass.
And understandably so.
Not many things are worse than being approached by pimps, johns, construction workers, police and other people all interested in what you have to scream.
But keep it in mind, if you’re HOOKED on the 100 calorie or worse yet Glory-Of-The-80’s fat-snack-attacks, you most likely LOVE YOUR ASS.
Here’s a couple reasons why,
1) Did you know that rice cakes, pretzels, potato chips, corn chips and the like are all INFLAMMATORY foods?
Meaning, they actually promote irritation within the body thus yielding potential bloating, disruption to digestion, and promote weight gain.
How’s your peanut butter on rice cake now? Don’t forget to weigh in this week for $10 so we can tell you to buy more of our products 🙂
2) All processed flours, even enriched wheat flour (which is actually white flour in disguise), along with any fast food, cornstarch, sweeteners, margarine, shortening, corn syrups, high fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated oils, regular ground beef and more are all Inflammatory foods as well.
Basically, if you eat anything in the middle of the grocery store, you’re screwed and your ass will most likely swell.
However, there’s an alternative, ding, light bulb!
You can eat foods on the outside of the grocery store, or better known as the perimeter that are anti-inflammatory. Fresh fish, grass fed beef (you’ll need a speciality shop for this most likely – not even the whole foods in my area has grass fed beef), fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, cage free chicken, cage free eggs from those chickens and more all lead to smaller butt.
Throw in some exercise and my god!
You may have a tighter, smaller bum in no time.

YAP YAP YAP… ;)
No we’re not Sesame Street aliens, they “Yip, Yip Yip Yip Yip, Yip”
This is YAP!
What’s all the yapping about?
Your Action Potential!!
My colleague and friend, Dr. Jon, have teamed up to bring the world YAP Radio 🙂
Your Action Potential (YAP), is a new book coming out by Dr. J that he wrote during 2009. It has a fall release date and we’re all very excited.
I can’t wait to read the hardcover edition!
I’ve seen some of the meat, and we discuss topics of the book weekly.
Today’s show was titled ‘Committed Enrollment’.
Cut the fat, it’s a guide to taking control of your life through motivation and self-improvement.
Just brilliant stuff in there, and also, it’s very accessible terminology wise.
You do not need to be a Doctor to understand it, heck even a caveman could understand it.. ha ha, sorry couldn’t resist the stupid joke.
It is amazing, it will IMPROVE your life and you will look at your self and think,
“What the f— have I’ve been doing to myself?” “This guy is blowing my mind!”
We’ve already held a seminar, rave reviews, and plan on spiking more in the immediate future.
So stayed tuned for more info on Your Action Potential, and more from Dr. Jon and myself, Robert Belley.
It’s all about empowering YOUR life.
If we can do that, we’ve done our job.

Fast Workout Monday! Lynne Rocks!
Today was a crazy day… just one of those days when nothing seems to work out.
But, despite the universe’s best effort to thwart my fitness I still kicked in a killer quick workout.
And thank goodness I did.
Man I was stressed. I had just a few minutes between instructing boot camps tonight at the studio and needed to get a fast training session in.
And today I was so proud of one my really cool clients, Lynne.
She told me she’s lost near 30 pounds in just 2 short months.
I’m so proud of her.
And you now what? She eats like she wants fat loss. So key!
We can’t train our way through nutrition, unless you have skyrocketing testosterone levels and your hormones are geared anabolic. Then you can enjoy your fried dough, cotton candy and beer at the Marshfield Fair.
If you don’t have a six pack this minute…. you need to watch your diet.
I now it sucks, but anything worth having in life is worth working towards.
Well, here was my workout today…
By the way, I was still a little sore from last weeks’ workouts.
A) Plank – 1 x 4:32 seconds
B1) Romanian Deadlift/Bent Over Barbell Row Hybrid – 3 sets x 6 reps
B2) Ring Flyes – Bodyweight x 8 reps
C) Barbell Deadlift 1 set x 8 reps (very light weight)
On the Deadlifts I used about 33% of my max. I just wanted to add something at the last second.
This workout took me only 9 minutes… not kidding.
Now get out there, hit the gym, and train like you need it,
Live the Dream,
Rob
Focus, Focus, Focus Marshfield… For Fat Loss, Muscle…
Let me ask you a question,
If you decide to both burn lots of fat and build lots of muscle do you think it’s possible simultaneously?
Well sort of,
If you’re a beginner, your neurological and “new” stimulus will definitely elicit an amazing change in your body.
If you’re a genetic Adonis or Aphrodite yes your body will simply respond to both with very little dedication… from my experience about less than 1% of the population have this gift.
If you’re on anabolic-androgenic steroids then yes you will also have this chance, but you’ll also set yourself up for an emotional tornado of self-destructive self-esteem over time as well as be participating in something very illegal with the law.
So what do we need to do?
We need to focus.
Simply F O C U S.
If you’re involved in activity A, but also thinking about activity B, Activity C, D, E and so forth will “A” get your full attention and provide you the best result?
Of course not.
If you’re in a training session and thinking about the laundry, the kids, the ocean, your sister’s meatloaf recipe, the trash at home getting out then you are not getting the best result you need and desire from your workout. Your training sessions must be ONLY your training session. That’s the best result.
If you were working in a deli, using the slicer and while shaving down some cheese slices began to let your thoughts run towards others non-slicing related task in that moment what do you think may happen?
You’ll lose a finger or seriously hurt yourself.
It’s all about focus.
Staying in the moment.
Nothing else matters.
You need to only worry about the task that you CAN control.
You can’t control the trash during your workout.
You can’t control the laundry during your workout.
You can’t control the ocean during your workout.
You can’t control dinner during your workout.
You can’t control ANYTHING but your workout during your workout.
So STAY IN THE MOMENT.
Began adding this technique and I PROMISE you will find much better, and faster results within weeks if not days!
At my Marshfield fitness studio it’s all about staying in the movement.
Whether it’s our Marshfield boot camps, Marshfield yoga sessions, Marshfield personal training or Marshfield massage. It’s about staying in the moment and only focusing on what is at hand…
YOUR RESULTS.

Hydroxycut Kills
It should be a no-brainer.
It shouldn’t have to come to this.
But for some reason people still chase potions.
One of the all-time leading fat-loss burning pill scams, Hyrdoxycut, was recalled off the shelves today by the FDA.
Read the full Hydroxycut kills article here:
http://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/05/01/hydroxycut.fda.recall/
I’ll say this now as I always have…
FAT LOSS PILLS DO NOT WORK
FAT LOSS PILLS DO NOT WORK
FAT LOSS PILLS DO NOT WORK
I won’t lie to you about it.
They are all a scam.
The only thing that will provide you with fat-loss is eating properly and exercising intelligently.
You don’t need a pill for that.
So seriously, stop wasting your money on FALSE-HOPES.
If you want your dream body, you’re gonna have to work for it.
It’s not easy.
It’s not a smooth road.
But you’ll get there.
So long as you stay consistent you will get there.
I promise.
