Hi , Sept 29, 2011
It all started with an email from Monica. She shot me a quick note to let me know how she loved the Burst Training strategy in my Fitness Breakthrough Kit.
It just so happened that a couple of days later, while on a flight from DC to San Francisco, I watched an episode from the Dr. Oz show featuring Tim Ferriss and his latest book, The Four Hour Body, to which Monica had to referred in her email to me.
A blog was born, and you'll see what I mean in today's Feature Article. Please pop on over to the blog to share your thoughts, it's always a treat to hear what you think.
See you there!

Better Than 'The 4 Hour Body'?
This just in:
Hi Lani!
I've been using your 15-minute blast strategy every morning and it's the best exercise program I've ever found. It's BETTER than Tim Ferriss' strategies in the 4-Hour Body, and much, MUCH easier to implement! ~ Monica Heyden, CEO, Tailored Trademark. com
Hey
thanks Monica, I'm so glad you likey my Burst Training guide. It's the
easy answer to the gotta-get-in-my-cardio-but-don't-have-much-time
problem.
And thanks also for providing me with the perfect opportunity to pop in
with response to Tim Ferriss' newest work on the market, The 4 Hour Body, which was featured recently on Dr. Oz..
Did you see Tim Ferriss on the Dr. Oz show?
 If you haven't read Tim Ferriss' 4 Hour Body (guilty!) or
seen him on the Dr. Oz show (I caught the segment on a flight out of DC a
few days ago), here's what happened on the Dr. Oz piece.
Tim Ferriss' new best seller, The 4 Hour Body, recently hit the body fat-loss magic bullet market. The Oz segment focused on 3 of Ferris' strategies for fast weight loss, specifically fat loss.
My concern here is what many viewers are probably going to get out of
this. Here are the 3 major recommendations for fat loss from Tim
Ferriss' 4 Hour Body and the problems I foresee for the public with
them:
1) 4 Hour Body plan: Pound down 30 grams of protein for breakfast.
Supposedly, this is going to help you by to raising your metabolic rate. High protein
foods recommended  are the usual animal-based proteins: meat, eggs, and
fish, which are a workload for the body to digest. So is the idea here
that we want to create a stress load for the body from which to recover
in our desperation to lose weight? Does the ends justify the means?
Response: Most Americans are eating too much concentrated protein as it is. And that's not the only problem. I'm betting that those
who employ the '30 grams at breakfast' tactic are going to simply add
it to everything else they are eating, merely adding to the calorie
overload and flooding the body with far more protein - and the fat that
comes with it - than it needs.
The US RDA for protein is .8 grams per kg of body weight. If your
body weight is 150 lbs, to convert that to kg you take 150 and divide it
by 2.2 = 68kg. 68 x .8 = 54 grams of protein. Those 30 grams of
protein out of 54 RDA comes out to 56% - over half of the protein -
recommended for the day. As an alternate, the USDA recommends for AI
(adequate intake) protein for healthy adult females is 46 g per day, and
56 g per day for adult males. The AI is 9 to 52 g for children, and 71 g
for pregnant and lactating women.
With this kind of protein overload at breakfast - 30 grams - you
would easily surpass your protein requirement for the day (30 out of 46
grams would be 65%), taxing the body system. As long as you are eating
a variety of whole foods and eating sufficient calories of vegetables,
starchy vegetables, whole grains, beans and legumes, and nuts and seeds,
you easily fulfill your protein requirements.
