Out of Sight, Out of Reach, Out of Mind: How Food Proximity and Visibility Can Keep You Thin Or Make You Fat
By Tom Venuto
Out of Sight, Out of Reach, Out of Mind:
How Food Proximity and Visibility Can Keep You Thin Or Make You Fat What really makes you eat more than you need? At the Food and Brand Laboratory of Cornell University, Dr Brian Wansink has been conducting fascinating experiments to find the answer. We know that how much you eat is influenced by taste, mood, stress, social pressure, and role models. Dr. Wansink hypothesized that having foods close by and in plain sight could also lead you to eat more, and do it mindlessly. The results of his study will astonish you! Read Tom Venuto's review of the experiment and watch Dr. Wansink's Video... . . . keep reading
Tom Venuto's Favorite Ab Exercises, Part 1: Kneeling Cable Crunch (Video Article)
by Tom Venuto
Tom Venuto's Favorite Ab Exercises, Part 1: Kneeling Cable Crunch (Video Article) Getting "six-pack" abs is more a matter of low body fat than your choice of abdominal exercises. That's why we spend so much time talking about nutrition and the importance of a calorie deficit. Nevertheless, interest in abdominal exercises has reached an all time high. That's why I decided to create something unique: A video article series about my personal favorite ab exercises which I've used over the past 20 years as a bodybuilder. You may be surprised when you see my list of favorites compared to what most of the 'guru-types' are recommending these days... . . . keep reading
The Secrets Of Fighting Female Flab Over 40 With Master's Fitness Champ Maxine Johnson
Tom Venuto CSCS, NSCA-CPT
The Secrets Of Fighting Female Flab Over 40 With Master's Fitness Champ Maxine Johnson If you think "over 50" means "over the hill," then you've never met Maxine Johnson. Maxine took up the fitness lifestyle in her mid 30's, was in the best shape of her life at age 40, competed in her first fitness competition at age 53 and is now winning fitness and figure contests at age 56. If you'd like to know how she developed a fat-free, fit and fabulous body after having three kids, holding down a job and managing life crises and stresses of all kinds (not to mention menopause), then you won't want to miss this exclusive interview. . . . keep reading
The New Rules of Cutting Calories: What is the "Real" Ideal Calorie Deficit?
By Tom Venuto
The New Rules of Cutting Calories: What is the "Real" Ideal Calorie Deficit? How far should you cut your calories to lose fat safely at the maximum rate? How large of a deficit is necessary? What is the lowest safe level of caloric intake? Why do some people lose a lot of weight on very low calorie diets, apparently without problems? Recent research has shed some new light on the subject, so it's worth revisiting "the optimal calorie deficit" including that old advice about "cutting 500 calories a day to lose a pound per week, cutting 1000 calories a day to lose two pounds per week, etc"... like other things in nutrition, you are about to learn that once size (calorie deficit) does not fit all! . . . keep reading
Why cardio doesn't work for some people… New study uncovers the answer!
By Tom Venuto
Why cardio doesn't work for some people… New study uncovers the answer! "Exercise is not effective for weight loss." "Cardio is a waste of time." "You must be cardio-resistant." "Aerobics makes you fat." What do these four statements, each one made by prominent book authors, scientists or personal trainers, have in common? Aside from the fact that they're all flat-out wrong, they are all alike because they completely miss or ignore the real reason why aerobics or cardio doesn't work for some people… A new study from the University of Leeds in the UK has found a definitive answer... . . . keep reading
"Steady State Cardio 5 X More Effective Than HIIT????"
Tom Venuto
"Steady State Cardio 5 X More Effective Than HIIT????" High Intensity Interval Training, or HIIT for short, has been promoted as one of the most effective training methods ever to come down the pike, both for fat loss and for cardiovascular fitness. One of the most popular claims for HIIT is that it burns "9 times more fat" than conventional (steady state) cardio. This figure was extracted from a study performed by Angelo Tremblay at Laval University in 1994. But what if I told you that HIIT has never been proven to be 9 times more effective than regular cardio… What if I told you that the same study actually shows that HIIT is 5 times less effective than steady state cardio??? Read on and see the proof for yourself. . . . keep reading
High Density Training (HDT): A Legitimate, Scientifically-Proven Method For Gaining More Muscle In Less Time
Tom Venuto
High Density Training (HDT): A Legitimate, Scientifically-Proven Method For Gaining More Muscle In Less Time Unless you're a beginner, you've probably already heard of "high intensity" training (HIT), but if you haven't heard of and used "high density" training (HDT), then be sure to read every word of this article because HDT is a science-based, real-world-proven principle that can legitimately help you gain more muscle or lose more fat in less time, while simultaneously allowing you to avoid joint pain and work out more safely without the injury risk that comes with training under maximal weights... . . . keep reading
How To Repair A Damaged Metabolism And Stoke Your Metabolic Furnace
By Tom Venuto
How To Repair A Damaged Metabolism And Stoke Your Metabolic Furnace If you've caused metabolic "damage" as a result of starvation diets, eating disorders or losing weight too rapidly, it can be extremely difficult to achieve any further fat loss at all... you may even suffer from weight loss rebound that researchers call "body fat overshooting." The good news is, metabolic damage can be "repaired" and you can turn your body into a fat-burning furnace. All it takes is the right combination of metabolism stimulating exercise and metabolism stimulating nutrition (NOT just a diet), all done consistently over time . . . keep reading

"Hypnotize Me And Make Me Thin!" (Does Hypnosis Work For Weight Loss?)
By Tom Venuto
"Hypnotize Me And Make Me Thin!" (Does Hypnosis Work For Weight Loss?) Hypnosis. It sounds so mysterious. It often conjures up images of a bearded man with piercing black eyes and a mesmerizing deep voice swinging a pendulum back and forth, chanting, "You are getting very, very sleeeeepy." Indeed there are many misconceptions about hypnosis and the only exposure to hypnosis that most people will ever have is a Las Vegas stage show. But stage hypnosis for entertainment and hypnotherapy for behavior change are completely different animals. Could "real" hypnotherapy help you with weight loss? . . . keep reading

Natural Sugar Versus Refined Sugar and The Health - Body Fat Paradox
By Tom Venuto
Natural Sugar Versus Refined Sugar and The Health - Body Fat Paradox In the weight loss world, sugar has become a dietary "evil" to be shunned at all costs. Unfortunately, many people don't make the distinction between natural (nature-made) or refined (man-made) varieties. Many people have sought out sugar alternatives that are all-natural, and replaced refined sugars with products such cane juice, cane syrup, sucanat, fruit juice concentrates, barley malt syrup, brown rice syrup, brown sugar, honey, or maple syrup. However, this may be a move from the frying pan to the fire if another, equally important distinction is not made... . . . keep reading

The Religion of Pre and Post Workout Nutrition, and other thoughts…
By Will Brink
The Religion of Pre and Post Workout Nutrition, and other thoughts… Pre- and post-workout nutrition is all the rage these days, and for good reason. For some, however, it's become more than a science--it's become their religion, or perhaps just a place to focus their OCD-like tendencies. Regardless, people have taken the topic of pre- and post-workout nutrition to a level that is not justified by the research, or at least not confirmed by the research that currently exists. . . . keep reading

 TESTIMONIALS

Here's what people are saying about Burn The Fat and the Inner Circle...


"Tom Venuto is a credible, qualified professional who knows his stuff. More than that, he has a genuine concern for the people he's helping. His "Inner Circle" is a premier quality resource - well worth the money, and a benefit to anyone, anywhere, of any age who is trying to lose weight. I highly recommend it!"

Paul Crane, UltimateFatBurner.com

"I just listened to the first "Burn the Fat Show" and this one 20-minute message is at the top of my list. I have motivational CD's and books coming out the wazoo and you've set a standard in your show that I look forward to listening to again and again. Keep up the GREAT work!"."

Steve Wiebusch

The support here is incredible for my morale. I'm excited about the inches I've lost. In the past when I'd get halfway there, I'd lose motivation and quit. I've never made it this far and still felt motivated to keep going. "

Rikki Fougere


"I have many people everyday ask me what my secret is and how I lost 137 pounds. I tell them the same thing - I use Tom Venuto's Burn The Fat - Feed The Muscle program and it all boils down to "How bad do you want it?"
Mike Ogorek



"I've been following the Burn The Fat recommendations and I now fit into a pair of jeans that I havent worn in a long time. The Salvation Army must love me these days, as I've liberated 12 clothes hangers and two shelves of oversized clothes since New Years!"
Sarah Cecile
