Big things going on at TT this week.
1) First, the Toronto Star newspaper published a review of my book, "Just Say NO to Cardio".
PS - If you haven't grabbed your copy of that book and the free bonuses, go here:
2) I'm planning some TT seminars for the Toronto area in January.

3) Okay, time for this week's 7-Day Weight Loss call...where I cover my opinions on caffeine, ab exercises, and "Off-day workouts".
Here are the main points from the call...
Monday
Today's the big day...the 3rd TT Transformation Contest Finalists will be announced.
Today's the big day...the 3rd TT Transformation Contest Finalists will be announced.
They all have one thing in common...they used social support to succeed. None of them did this "all on their own". So take 5 minutes and find ONE source of support today (at work, online, or at home).
Tuesday
Bodyweight exercises are great for off-days, but you need to pick the right exercises.
Bodyweight exercises are great for off-days, but you need to pick the right exercises.
Choose easy bodyweight exercises and work on your mobility. I call this type of workout, "upbeat yoga". More movement, but same goals. (I also cover the truth about eating after 7pm on the call.)
Wednesday
I shared my latest upper body workout that I use in my latest strength and muscle building program.

That's a FUN workout.
Thursday
I want to clear up a misconception...many folks think I've said that coffee is bad for you. But I haven't! Coffee and caffeine are fine in moderation. (I just don't drink coffee, personally). I also explain why caffeine withdrawal gives you headaches.

Friday
When you do ab exercises, brace your abs as if someone was punching you in the stomach. I explain the technique on the call.

Saturday
Plan for all the obstacles you think you're going to come across this week. Plan 2 solutions for each obstacle and you'll have a better chance to stick to your plan.
