An interview by Geovanni Derice with Mike Geary - Certified Nutrition Specialist, Certified Personal Trainer

I had the pleasure of being interviewed recently by a fitness professional from NYC, Certified Personal Trainer, Geovanni Derice. The interview is below and I think you’re going to like it… I reveal some of the hardest hitting strategies for getting rid of that stubborn stomach fat to uncover those flat six pack abs that everyone wants.

“GD: Welcome Mike to our 4-ever-Toned Fitness Journal. For those who do not know you, please tell us a few things about yourself and how you can help our readers with their fitness and health.

MG: Thanks for having me, Geo. Well, to go back a little, I have been heavily involved in fitness and sports for about 17 years now, ever since I was a teenager. Being involved in sports in high school got me interested in strength training and conditioning.

At that point, once I started feeling more energetic, getting stronger, and looking better, I was instantly hooked for life. I’m 33 now and still addicted to the way living a healthy and fit lifestyle makes me feel energetic, confident, strong, and youthful on a daily basis.

I decided earlier in my 20’s that I wanted to make the commitment to help other people experience the excitement of being fit and getting in the best shape of their lives, especially since we’ve reached an epidemic of obesity, heart disease, diabetes, cancer, depression, etc. That’s why I became a fitness professional. It just gives me so much satisfaction to help others, who have struggled for years to get in good shape, and show them that it can be done, and it can be fun in the process.

I’ve expanded over the years from just reaching local individuals with personal training, into being able to help people all over the globe achieve their fitness goals with the reach of the internet. I only hope that my passion for fitness inspires people to take action and improve how they look and feel for life.

GD: Now Mike, there’s so many things out there as to what works and what does not work… if you had to pick 3 things that work time and time again to get flat lean abs, what would they be?

MG: The first and most important thing to get control of in order to lose your belly fat and get flat abs is cleaning up your diet. Exercise is important, but your diet is king when it comes to losing body fat so that you can see your abs.

There’s so much confusion these days about what a healthy diet that promotes fat loss really is… after all, we are bombarded by conflicting messages in the media about what is healthy and what is not, and you have all of these gimmicky diet books about low carb, low fat, high protein, vegetarian, fasting, atkins, south beach, liquid diets, and hundreds more. There’s so much conflicting info, that the average consumer doesn’t even know where to start when it comes to eating for fat loss.

The second thing that works time and time again, is to focus on the intensity of your workouts and focus on working the body as a whole in order to get the best metabolic response to lose that stubborn stomach fat.

In order to really get lean, the workouts should have a high intensity, with short rest periods, working the largest muscle groups of the body, instead of trying to isolate specific small muscles like the biceps, triceps, or calves.

For the third thing, let’s talk about actually training the abs specifically. When it comes to training the abs, if you want real results, I always recommend forgetting about the crunches and situps for the most part. They are ok for someone that is really deconditioned, but most people that already have some training under their belt need a much better stimulus for their abs than crunches. Crunches are one of the abs exercises that actually provide the least amount of resistance, and remember that resistance is what develops and tones the muscles.

I provide a ton of great abs exercises in my book, but one of THE highest resistance exercises for the abs, is hanging leg raises (but NOT the way you see most people at the gym doing them). The key to doing these and actually working the hell out of your abs is to curl your pelvis up as you raise your legs. Almost nobody ever does this right. To be honest, the majority of people cannot do this at first, but I provide some strategies in my book as to how to progress to doing these correctly.

GD: What are people doing wrong when it comes to developing the coveted “6 pack abs”?

MG: Well Geo, I know this sounds funny to most people, but the MAIN thing that people are doing wrong to get those flat 6-pack abs is… are you ready for this?

They spend entirely too much time focusing on training their abs! WAY too much time spent on abs exercises. Sounds crazy, but it’s true.

Remember, having a flat and visible six pack of abs is all about getting down to a low body fat percentage. In order to do that, your workouts must focus on stimulating a fat burning hormonal environment in your body, and increasing your metabolic rate. That just does not happen when you focus too much time training a small muscle group like the abs.

Instead, you must use the majority of your time focusing on training the largest muscle groups of the body like the legs, back, and chest. That’s what stimulates your metabolism and the fat burning hormones that will get you truly lean and sporting a flat sixxer!

GD: Which exercises are the top exercises that people need to do if they are to get maximum defintion with their midsection?

MG: When it comes to developing the abs themselves, I again refer to any kinds of hanging abs exercises, as well as some good floor abs exercises like lying leg thrusts (all described and illustrated in my book).

However, maximum definition in the abs and midsection comes from losing bodyfat, and the most effective exercises featured in my program for that goal are various forms of swings and snatches (unique dumbbell or kettlebell exercises that almost nobody ever does in normal gyms), squats, deadlifts, lunges, step-ups, clean & presses, mountain climbers, sprinting, and other full body exercises and calisthenics. If you want great looking flat abs, focus on those instead of focusing so much on training the abs directly!

GD: When it comes to diet Mike, people really have tried millions of ways to get one thing… and that is fat loss. What recommendations have you used to successfully help your clients lose body fat and keep it off?

MG: I have included a fully comprehensive discussion of this topic in my book, which accounts for almost half of the book, but I’ll try to make some nice simple generalizations to get people started on the right path immediately. The most important thing is that your diet is as natural and unprocessed as possible. It almost always comes back to the overprocessing of food that makes it unhealthy, and makes it totally wreck your metabolism and hormone balance in your body.

For example, why eat refined grains, when you can eat whole grains (even better are sprouted grains, as I usually recommend limiting grain foods overall for best results).

Why eat refined sugar, when you can get natural sources of sugar from a high nutrient whole food like fruit. Why eat highly processed, refined, and hydrogenated vegetable oils (these are THE worst thing in the modern diet), when you can eat natural sources of healthy fats like nuts, avocados, fish, eggs, coconut milk, organically raised meat, and so forth.

The point is to not fall for some gimmick like extremely low carbs (although I do believe in a fairly reduced carb intake as that is a big problem for most people), low fat, super high protein, or any other combination that has you focusing on one macronutrient vs. another.

Your body needs all macronutrients to thrive and obtain a variety of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, etc. Trying to cut an entire food group out just works against what your body needs. I get into much more detail on this vitally important topic towards losing body fat (especially that stubborn stomach fat) for life in my book.

GD: Thank you very much Mike for sharing with us all of this great information.

Well, I hope you enjoyed this interview and plucked several nuggets of info to get you motivated and started on showing off your flat abs shortly. If you don’t already own a copy, be sure to pick up a copy of my Truth about Six Pack Abs book and discover the entire system I’ve developed for ridding yourself of that extra ab fat for good!

Go here to see the results many of my readers are getting in losing stomach fat and getting lean abs.

The origins of the Cross Group date back to the mid 19th century when two members of the Cross family in Cork started a carriage hire and stables business in Cork city.

In the 1920’s, Cross’s Garage Ltd extended their business to the sale of ice boxes and mechanical domestic refrigerators. Early sales ledgers show that the first commercial coldroom was sold in early 1930 to the Royal Oyster Tavern, Market lane, Cork, a very famous and popular Cork bar & restaurant.
Cross Group quickly realised the potential of commercial refrigeration and soon re-trained some of their motor mechanics on refrigeration discipline

In 1966 Cross’ were appointed the Frigidare distributors for Ireland and at this time decided to separate the refrigeration division from the garage and formed a separate company- Cross Refrigeration Ltd. In 1968 the business was purchased from the Cross family and moved fully into commercial refrigeration.

The Cross Group of companies is now a young, diversified, dynamic group of companies with interests in a number of sectors. The core of the business is still founded in commercial and industrial refrigeration and air conditioning.

Today Cross Refrigeration is the widely recognised leader in the supply and installation of industrial and commercial refrigeration in Ireland. Cross Air-Conditioning also hold a similar position in their market and have expanded to the UK in recent years with many high profile installations. In the area of fruit ripening, storage and distribution Cross Ripening is recognised as a world leader, with installations spanning four continents! Cross Hire has developed to offer the highest quality brands for hire across a broad range, with unparalleled customer service.

Most excitingly, Cross Energy is a new, dynamic division which has already dramatically reduced the energy bills of many retailers and businesses throughout Ireland and the UK. This has encompassed a broad range of energy products from the highly regarded Cross Total Energy Management System to high quality installations of Solar PV and Wind turbines.

Summary
An innovative new insurance policy has been launched by Animal Friends Insurance (AFI). The insurance plan offers lower premiums to vegetarians, based on evidence that they are at a lower risk than their meat-eating counterparts of developing certain health conditions. It remains to be seen whether other insurers will follow the new policy marketed by Animal Friends Insurance .

A not for profit insurance firm has introducd an insurance policy which offers fish-eaters and vegetarians a reduced cost life insurance premium .

The deal, thought to be the 1st of its type, is being pioneered by Animal Friends Insurance (AFI). The firm is offering vegetarians a 7% cheaper premiumon life insurance premiums
The company claimed that vegetarians ought to pay a lesser cost for the product, which pays out if the person dies, because they were less likely to suffer from a range of very serious illnesses, including some cancers.

Elaine Fair, AFI’s managing director, said that the risk of veggies being diagnosed with certain cancers is shrunk by up to forty two per cent and the possibility of them suffering from heart disease is reduced by up to thirty per cent, but despite this they have, until now, had to pay broadly the same premiums as people who eat meat.
She says that Animal Friends Insurance believe that this is unfair and says the life organisations should acknowledge the fact that being a veggie can impose a positive impact on life expectancy and lower its monthly charges accordingly.

A standard plan is also on the market for meat eaters. Both insurance policies are brought to the market by LV=, which was previously known as Liverpool Victoria.

In common with standard life cover, a range of aspect contribute to the cost of the monthly premium including whether the applicant smokes, their age, weight and sex.

Just at the moment, Animal Friends Insurance is making the seven per cent reduction in price itself from the money it earns from from LV=. In the future, however, the firm’s aim was to offer lower costs on specialist policies. In making the discount the business is hoping to sign up enough veggies to make it viable for LV= to underwrite yet another plan that takes the vegetarian’s diet into account.

Indeed there are welcome savings to be made, a 40-year-oldnon-smoker purchasing £300,000 worth of life insurance might potentially save £393.60 over a 25-year period.

Where cheap life insurance is concerned, AFI believes that insurers should try to treat meat eaters and non-meat eaters in a way that is similar to the way they approach those that smoke and those that don’t. Perhaps other companies in the insurance industry will do the same.

Some peoplein the insurance industry do not believe there is robust proof that vegetarians live longer, and how any insurance company would know that applicants who had certified that they are veggies did not munch on an occasional bacon sandwich.

When it comes to smoking, it’s true that there are your Doctor’s records - if you now don’t smoke it’s possible that your GP is likely to be aware. But this won’t apply when it comes to eating meat, an executive from the insurance industry commented.

But many veggies argue that they are not concerned about people falling off the veggie way of eating and suggested that once a vegetarian has become a vegetarian, they do not return to meat-eating, that’s unlike applicants who smoke who tend to drift in and out of their habit.

Put simply an acne scar is the visible legacy of your skin’s trauma it has suffered whilst the inflammation was at it’s peak. Whenever our skin is damaged in any way, blood gets to the area carrying a mixture of our own body’s natural defences. The body’s immediate response is to heal and prevent further issues by way of infection from external sources.

Unfortunately, although our skin does invariably manage to heal itself, it often does so with little regard to how it appeared in its before the acne struck. Once acne scars have formed, there are several ways of removing them.

The most intense of treatments would certainly be surgical procedures which can be carried out either via laser therapy, plastic surgery or injections of collagen directly into the scar. These methods of course involve difficult procedures, skilled and trained individuals, and in the case of laser therapy in particular, very expensive equipment. Of course the cost of these treatments as a result is considerably higher in price than alternatives.

Simpler methods of acne scar removal include processes such as micro-dermabrasion, micro-needling and silicone sheets. These approaches, although are often provided by beauty clinics and professionals, can be carried out at home successfully, at a much reduced cost. It is often the case that these simpler procedures can create as good a final result and usually do not require a period of recovery after treatment.

It is important that before choosing a method of treating any acne scar, that research is done into each of the alternatives so the right balance can be made between all of the advantages and disadvantages. It is also worth baring in mind the time it takes to recover, the length of time each treatment takes as well as any potential downsides.

XBOX360 PROS: I was shocked at how good the graphics are. I really didn’t think there was a big difference between last generation and the current generation, but I can see now that there is. One of my neighbors brought over the NCAA 10, and the difference between it and my PS2 NCAA 10 is like night and day. I’m one of the strange ones that prefers the 360 controller. I have big hands, it fits well, and I like the layout of their analog controllers better than the Sony controllers, though I guess is isn’t a big difference. The controller is nice though. Hardly no noise level and no heating up. So, so far, the Jasper must be doing its job. Overall, I’m very pleased with it and at least feel positive about this generation of consoles, as can be seen by pre-ordering the PS3 slim.

I have to say that this xbox is much better than the earlier versions. It is a little quieter and doesn’t overheat,I’ve played for 10 hours straight with no RROD, awesome.

PLAYSTATION 3 PROS : You’ll get:

• FREE Blu-Ray capabilities right out of the box.

• Upgrade the hard drive to any size you like…I put a 500gb in mine.

• The controllers are much better and actually fit in your hands AND you don’t have to replace the internal batteries.

• The controllers and all other accessories communicate via blue-tooth….MODERN technology.

• FREE online gaming with NO ADS.

• FREE wifi capabilities right out of the box.

The first party games are leaps and bounds better than anything the XBOX can produce because the developers aren’t limited by the older DVD technology.
The PS3 was built for the future…you won’t have to buy another console years down the road.

I’ve found so much value in the PS3 that I have bought two - one for the bedroom and one for the living room.

The fresh, garden feeling that comes from living with plants indoors is never more marked than when vines are part of the picture. Their graceful, curving lines seem more natural than stiff, upright plants; they give more flower and foliage display per square inch of root space; and they are more adaptable, without unnatural strain and distortion, to many desirable effects. Vines and hanging plants create vitality and motion, actually seem to “breathe life into a room.”

This is true in houses of all types of architecture or interior decor, and particularly true when the style is strictly contemporary. Planning for minimum maintenance makes use of building materials, fabrics, and finishes that are smooth and stark, but also sometimes monotonous and glaring. The clean, uncluttered look provides not only the opportunity but also the need for the kind of decoration vines can provide.

Straight, plain contemporary lines call for a softening effect. Large, bare areas are superb backgrounds for the play of light and shadow, for contrasts in color and texture. With the trend toward living, working, and eating areas instead of sharply separated rooms, vines can be used to give the effect of a screen or divider without actually closing off space. And the contemporary emphasis on “oneness with the outdoors” expressed in large windows becomes more emphatic when a vine makes a soft transition between inside and outside view.

Spanish or Oriental; Georgian, Tudor, or Victorian; Northern Colonial or Southern plantation - there is hardly a house that is not made more attractive by vining plants. By their very nature they are in character with the country cottage or farmhouse. To the prototype suburban home, vines contribute individuality. In many older homes they are useful in modifying, modernizing, or screening what we now consider defects in design, making all rooms more refreshing and livable.

A vine trained along certain lines can make a large room seem smaller and more friendly, a small room seem larger and more airy. Grown up or down a wall, a vine will heighten a low ceiling; horizontally, it lowers a high ceiling. Effective use of vines will pull the three windows of an old-fashioned bay into one homogeneous indoor garden decoration. Used in a single window where a variety of plants appear, vines help achieve decorative unity. Vines can be used to help balance a design for interior decoration, to give it rhythm, to create a center of interest or call attention to a focal point, to achieve any or all of the requirements of good design.

In the incredible variety of vining plants, there is almost unlimited choice of color, texture, structural form and size, and character with which to create any desired effect. Some vines make a dark room look brighter; others can be arranged for coolness and shade; and still others will produce either effect, depending upon how they are used. Today we have available a fascinating array of foliage vines that will flourish on indoor walls and in other places where the light is too dim for flowering plants, and we’re learning to love the beauty of fresh green foliage, the intricate tracery of twining stems, and the fascinating effect of the shadows of both.

There are vines in tune with the restful mood of the living room, the happiness of a kitchen or playroom, the femininity of a bedroom. There are small vines in scale with small rooms, large ones bold enough for great drawing rooms; vines effective when used alone, or in combination with other plants, or both. Some vines grow fast, some slow. Some climb up a support, some dangle from a wall bracket or hanging baskets. In using vines for indoor decoration, you can indulge your adventurous spirit and ingenuity to the limit, and at little cost.

There is one obvious condition upon which this is all possible - that the vining plants are healthy, colorful, and fresh-looking. This may require making some provision for light and sunlight, humidity, and other cultural requirements just like how to care for an aloe vera plant. Some plants can adapt to indoor life more readily then others; some are of such rare beauty that pampering is more than worth the trouble. In addition to optimum cultural conditions, Chapter 5 contains suggestions for some easy ways to keep a constant supply of thriving plants for decorative use.

So much for generalizations; now, let’s get specific. Here are a number of ideas for using vines and hanging plants for indoor decoration - in planter gardens, in windows, on walls and other vertical surfaces, in baskets and other hanging containers, and in small table-top compositions. Each idea is meant to be adapted to suit your house and your personal taste, and to inspire you to create your own completely new effects.

Acquiring electronics goods is slightly different from your normal grocery shopping. When you’re picking up electronics goods, you need to make sure the product has some form of warranty, at least one year to see to it that your investment in it will not be wholly meaningless should the product failed to work anymore before the warranty expires. Reading reviews of the electronic products you’re interested it is a good course of action to see to it that you’re making the best choice in terms of price and quality.

If you often have trouble maintaining your car battery and having a dead car battery is not unfamiliar to you, you should get a 12v car battery charger which can recharge the battery quickly so that you can use your car again as soon as possible and continue with your daily activities. The cost of investing in such a tool is so much cheaper than calling a mechanic or buying a new battery which in most cases, you do not need to. Be sure to choose a model that supports your car battery and one that has smart recharging function so that it will not damage your car battery by overcharging it.

If you own a boat however, you will no doubt know that if you do not maintain your boat battery normally enough, it will also be dead just like your car’s battery. The solution to this problem is truly easy and that is to get a marine battery chargers and install it onboard. Make sure that the model you settle on is tough enough to withstand all the bad weather elements and vibration that you will encounter on sea.

Ever wonder how you can increase the shelf life of your food without using preservative other food chemicals?

Storing your food in this manner is assuredly relatively a piece of cake and all you need is a reliable vacuum packaging machine which can do it for you with no bother.

Are you shopping for your cat loving friend, neighbor, or family member, and need some ideas of what to buy? There are many gifts you can get for the Cat Lover in your life, and you can even find gifts online that can be shipped within a few days. Just wait until the recipient opens the gift you buy once you find the right one for that person.

Please read further for cat lover’s gift giving ideas.

Some cat lovers like to receive calendars, greeting cards, framed pictures, scrapbooks and other published arts or graphics, especially if they include pictures of their very own cat. They also would like cat figurines, and subscriptions to various cat magazines or gift certificates to a local pet store.

When deciding to give a gift to a cat lover, be sure to find out what kind of cat that person has, or to take pictures of the cat if you already know. This may take some planning on your part. For instance, you may have to think of an excuse (such as your friend’s kid’s birthday, or a holiday) to go over to your friend’s house, and to take pictures of that cat. You want to make sure you plan the picture taking in a way that is natural, and does not bring suspicion on the part of the cat owner. You would not want to ruin the surprise right?

Then, you can either take the pictures in to get developed by a professional, or develop the pictures yourself if you have a computer. If you have some artistic ability, you will be able to create a beautiful framed piece of art for the cat owner to hang on his or her wall, or a decorative scrapbook for that person to place on a coffee table. Either that or you can buy already made frames, or have someone make a work of art for you to give to your friend or family member, the cat lover.

The person who receives this gift will be most overjoyed, and will be grateful that you appreciate that person’s love for cats. Another example of a gift to give a cat lover would be to buy that person a subscription to a magazine such as Cat Fancy. This magazine tells cat lovers everything they would want to know about cats, such as various breeds, grooming techniques, the best cat toys to buy and more. This magazine also has cat lover’s stories to tell, as well as health information about various feline pets.

The list of gifts to buy for a cat lover does not stop there, however. You can also buy cat themed clothing, personalized cat (and photo) doormats, and decorative chalkboards. You can also buy for your cat lover a personalized cat photo blanket, or a piece of rhinestone jewelry that says “I love cats” on it. Furthermore, there is a huge selection of catlike style crystal figurines and real life models of a wide variety of cat breeds.

Other cat lover’s gifts would be great for the kitchen, such as paw print pet treat jars and hand painted mugs, and even dinnerware. You may also find refrigerator magnets and kitchen rugs with cat decorations on them.

For the cat lover’s car there is the license plate cover that can include a saying on it such as I love cats, and have little kitten decorations surrounding its border. Furthermore, you can buy for the cat lover a suction cup cat that would stick to any car window, or “I love cat” bumpers stickers.

There is virtually no end to the amount of gifts available for you to choose from for any cat loving individual. Along with that, is the fact that you are sure to find from amongst the many different gifts displayed online one that is within your price range.

After selling the M.I. Hummel line of Goebel figurines since 1935, Goebel shut its doors in October 2008. Problems began years before with the owner filing bankruptcy in 2006. The economic downturn had an effect on a company that had been in business since 1871. Although best known for their Hummel line of Goebel figurines many different artists produced drawings that Goebel figurines where fashioned after. Several types of porcelain figurines by artists like Charlot BYJ have had success and have value in today’s market, but their Hummel line of Goebel figurines were always their best selling and most loved figurines.

When Goebel shut down, 230 employees who worked in the Hummel factory lost their jobs. Not only the employees but collectors of the Hummel line of Goebel figurines were astonished and saddened. Collectors were emotional and believed there was no way that Goebel could stop producing the Hummel line. Goebel had tried everything they could think of to keep producing the line, even increasing production of the Hummels to make more revenue. However, this didn’t work and supply quickly outweighed demand.

In 2009 Hoechst Porcelain located near Frankfurt, Germany founded the firm Manufaktur Roedental and they acquired not only the copyrights to the Hummel line of Goebel figurines but also the production facilities. They have hired back many of the former craftsmen and production of these beautiful figurines is again underway. Since everything is still made by hand, one figurine can take up to twelve weeks to produce.

This year is the 100th anniversary of Sister Maria Innocentia Hummel’s birth (she is the artist whose drawings the figurines are modeled after) and the new company is hoping this will respark an interest in the pieces. Many new porcelain figurines are being produced for the occasion and hopefully the tradition of the Goebel figurines will be carried on.
