I was raised on values of honesty and integrity. Therefore I’m moving uncomfortably in my chair while I give you a permission…to cheat. Actually, it’s more than just permission. This “License to Cheat” will help you to achieve your health and fitness goals. My permission to cheat contains 2 “cheats”: Cheating With Your Diet We are not perfect. As we try to keep a healthy diet, sooner or later we’ll have some weak moments. I have my cravings as you do. But I successfully keep a sustainable 10% body fat because I stick to the Anti-Aging Fitness Program cheating technique. We usually crave for the foods that are out of our ideal diet. Some crave French-fries, some crave ice-cream. But we all think of them as forbidden sins. The cheating technique converts the sin into…part of your diet. You do so by opening time windows for your “cheats”. Anti-Aging Fitness Program opens a “window of cheating opportunity” once a week. For example, my cheating day is either Saturday or Sunday when I eat out with my kids. On weekends you can catch me eating bread or French-fries. You should set a time window for your cheating meals. If you have a time when you want to eat without too many guilt feelings, set it as your weekly cheat meal. The great thing about this cheating technique is that if you suddenly lose control and eat the wrong stuff, you won’t be hard on yourself with guilt feelings. Make it as your weekly cheat meal and skip the planned cheat meal. Cheat meals have 2 benefits: They psychologically support you to overcome your cravings. They shock your metabolism and make your Anti-Aging Fitness Program more effective. “License to cheat” is given 1-2 times a week. One time will help you to achieve your goals faster than if you have 2 cheat meals per week. As you reach your goals, you may consider having 2 cheat meals. But then, you probably won’t need to “cheat” because your blood sugar will be lower and you won’t crave high GI foods. Read more about Cheat Meals on page 58 of my book “Change Your Body and Be Admired”, the first volume the “Anti-Aging Fitness Program” Cheating the Rep The second “license to cheat” is a workout technique. Veteran personal trainers are familiar with this trick that can take your fitness to a new level. Every set of weight training exercise contains a number of repetitions. You define in advance what number of repetitions you expect, but you should not stop when your reach this number. You must continue until you reach Maximum Effort™. If you cannot do the full motion of the exercise even for one more rep, then you can “cheat the rep” by performing part of the motion instead of the full motion of the exercise. For example, if you’re performing bicep curl, and you reach Maximum Effort™, don’t let your arms to fall all way down. Stop your negative motion when your arms are perpendicular and then curl again. When you don’t perform the full range of your exercise, you’re “cheating the rep”. Do that only close to, or beyond your point of failure. Find more about the Maximum Effort ™ and point of failure techniques on page 101 of the first volume of Anti-Aging Fitness Program – “Change Your Body and Be Admired”.
