Fitness madman Jon Benson is at it again… this time telling us you can get “skinnny eating fast-food…” And he intends to prove it. Naturally you have to modify the way you eat fast-food (duh!) but his tips are really clever. Here’s 3 for you today…

Believe it or not you can get lean by eating fast food.

I know, it sounds crazy… but in a few weeks I’m going to prove it to the world with the release of my newest mini e-book “Fast Food Fitness: How I Dropped 40lbs Eating Fast Food Every Day.”

No matter how we do it, we all can agree- crunches are boring! Flatter abs would be great, but we all hate crunches. We want washboard abs without doing so much to get them.
Make 2010 your year to have both—the abs you have always wanted and the easy moves to get them. There are so many ultra-effective tips and moves for a leaner stomach that you can swear off crunches forever, if you’d like, and still chisel your middle. Follow some enjoyable ways to shed inches from your waist and keep it off.

Wow… this one blew me away. My friend and fitness author Jon Benson just got back from a 3-week business vacation and LOST 11 lbs of body fat. Here’s the email he sent me detailing how he did it… Enjoy!

How I dropped 11 lbs… on vacation?

It was the weirdest thing …

I mean, I’ve been around you know? I’ve had just about every body and fat loss experience you can think of… the good, the bad, the ugly…

… and now the really bizarre.

Here’s the story:

I would like to introduce to you the Lifecore CD400 elliptical machine. This machine is right for everyone. The Lifecore CD400 is a compact elliptical trainer that’s short on size, but long on club quality, features, and stride length.

The biggest problem most of us face when trying to find a feature packed elliptical trainer with a compact footprint is the annoyingly small stride length of the most machines on the market. This makes it nearly impossible to workout on the elliptical machine.  There’s nothing more annoying than a small stride length when you are trying to get into a good workout on an elliptical.  In the past, it’s become a trade-off between the size of the machine OR the stride length, but with the CD400 you are getting the best of both worlds.

The Best Body Composition Measuring Scale is an at-home scale that will show weight, fat percentage, muscle percentage, and much more.  It was selected best by the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute for its accuracy and features.  At a price tag of $119.95, it is certainly not an inexpensive scale – but if you are serious about your diet and want to get an accurate reading on your body composition, this is the scale for you.  Don’t waste your money on cheaper imitations, as in the long run you’ll have more than $120 invested in your scale by the time you find one that you are happy with.  This scale uses a bioelectrical impedance technology to send a harmless bioelectrical current through your body to measure your body fat percentage, visceral fat level, skeletal muscle mass, resting metabolism, body mass index, and body age.  During product testing at the Human Performance Lab at the University of Illinois-Chicago, this model scored highest for accuracy across weight and BMI readings because it was only 0.11% off of the beam scale measurement.  Unlike cheaper body composition scales, this one is able to measure your entire body’s composition using six total sensors – 2 on a handheld unit and 4 on the scale itself.
