Exercise for love handles, is it painful? Depends on what you do. It doesn’t have to be painful.

Why we call those chubby lumps at our sides ‘love handles’ is a mystery to me. There’s not a lot to love about them.

The technical term for love handles is obliques, after the oblique muscles which sit at an angle at each side. The word oblique mean ‘at an angle’.

In the fitness & health industry the standard advice starts with – eat healthily, exercise moderately, balanced diet – and all the other rubbish they spout.

We know what we should do but we need to get rid of these love handles the easy way, without the hard work. Is there a way?

Can’t Lose Weight? It Doesn’t Have To Be This Way

By Bruce Lee Workouts On August 4, 2009 NO COMMENTS

Do you believe you can’t lose weight? Have you got a particular reason you can’t lose that excess fat? Sadly the majority of people who want to lose weight get it in their heads that they simply can’t lose weight. Some mystical power is stopping them from achieving their weight loss goal.

Realty is that deep down they don’t really wanna lose any weight. They are happy living the lifestyle they are living. Openly though, they will still claim to want to lose weight but can’t seem to manage it.

It’s no magical secret. Weight loss is a simple mathematical problem. You need to burn off more calories than you eat. If you don’t use as many calories as you eat you will gain weight. Period.

Look at it from the other way and you will lose weight if you burn more than you consume. They you have the big problem, today’s food is

Love Handle Exercises – If Side Bends Don’t Work – What Will?

By Bruce Lee Workouts On July 30, 2009 NO COMMENTS

Do any search on the net and you’ll hit a million websites that will promise to strip that fat from your love handles. Fact is, the majority is useless. Designed to sell you some crap diet or some pills.

The side bend is the usual suspect in the exercise for love handles category. You hold a walking stick or broom above your head and bend from side to side. Simple! You can do side bends all you like but they won’t work.

They rarely work because you are trying to target just one small area. This is very difficult if not impossible. You’ll always get the smart ass telling you they do work. They do work, but only if you do them with a whole all round system and not just “spot” training.

You will lose weight from your love handles if you incorporate the side bends with an all round workout. If your

If You Can’t Lose Weight – A Step By Step System Can Help

By Bruce Lee Workouts On July 6, 2009 NO COMMENTS

If you’ve been struggling with your weight for some time, you might believe right now that you simply can’t lose weight.

I can tell you now that’s not physically possible. Everybody can lose weight. You just haven’t found the right system for you just yet.

I used to think I couldn’t lose weight but with mother nature using some shock tactics on me, I realised it was all in my head.

I used to be about fifteen pounds overweight most of the time. Then I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and at twenty seven years old. Shock, dismay, confusion, depression, I had it all.

I don’t know the how’s and why’s of it all but I do know it prompted me to do something with my weight.

I love systems. Systems make things easier by breaking them down into manageable tasks. I thought weight loss shouldn’t be any different.

A system is like a recipe,

Exercise For Love Handles – Does It Hurt Bad?

Exercise for love handles, is it painful? Depends on what you do. It doesn’t have to be painful.

Those nasty lumps of fat at your sides are what is termed as ‘love handles’. There’s nothing lovely about them so where the name comes from I don’t know.

The technical term for love handles is obliques, after the oblique muscles which sit at an angle at each side. The word oblique mean ‘at an angle’.

The majority of advice in the fitness game will be garbage like – eat healthily, balanced diet, exercise regularly – that sort of thing.

Yes people, we know all that but we want to know how to get rid of love handles without all that hard work. Is it possible?

Well, let me say this, yes it’s possible to eat like you are now and lose your love handles but it will take an enormous amount of work.

The problem is

I Was Convinced I Can’t Lose Weight – Now I Know I Was Wrong

By Bruce Lee Workouts On June 24, 2009 NO COMMENTS

In my eyes my adult life is in two parts. Not the before and after drastic weight loss. Yes, weight loss is involved but not how you would think.

In my case the before is (yes being overweight) before I was struck with diabetes. After is obviously the fall out after getting (and dealing with) it.

I was in my mid twenties and I was overweight. Not drastically but I was nearly always carrying around an extra 15 to 20 pounds.

I had tried to lose weight many times in the past but motivation was the key for me. Actually lack of motivation was the key for me. I just assumed I can’t lose weight.

I had tried to lose the weight before and when I tried hard it took for ever to shift. If I stopped for a little while it come piling back on in double quick time.

Then disaster, or what seemed

Those Who Think They Can’t Lose Weight, Think Again

By Bruce Lee Workouts On June 23, 2009 NO COMMENTS

Maybe it’s time for a rethink if you think you can’t lose weight. I believe everyone can lose weight if they just use the right system for them. It’s not rocket science.

I once believed the same, that I can’t lose weight, and probably never will. I was totally wrong on that point.

I used to lose a pound and pile two on, an endless merry go round. I changed when I was struck with type 2 diabetes.

Was it caused by me being overweight? I don’t know and I don’t think I’ll find that one out. But I know it gave me the shock of my life.

27 years old and diabetic. But worse in my eyes was I had what was termed “age onset diabetes”, what older people get.

Time to do something about my weight properly this time. No half hearted attempts to lose a few pounds. I had to change my
