Fat loss is a two-part problem: too much fat and too little muscle. To guarantee permanent fat loss, a two-part solution is required: more muscle that will in turn increase your metabolism and reduce excess fat. BodyTech has spent 20 years refining the Fat2MUSCLE 6-week fat loss programme. The result is a combination of BodyTech’s No-Momentum™ style of strength training, personal training, reduced calorie eating plan and superhydration.
The science of fat loss and strength training has never had more to offer both men and women. BodyTech’s Fat2MUSCLE is a revolutionary approach. It literally takes everything you’ve ever heard about fat loss and turns it upside down.
Others say: walk, jog or cycle for a long duration 5 to 6 days a week
Fat2MUSCLE says: shorter, smarter workouts. Just 3 x 30 min high intensity personal training workouts per week.
Others say: diet only and use supplements
Fat2MUSCLE says: eat more frequently, eat real food and superhydrate your body with water.
Why do we say this? Because our experience in long-term effective fat loss has proven our system works and gets the best results. Scientific research on fat loss, plus practical experience, has led to the development of the Fat2MUSCLE 6-week fat loss programme.
The most debilitating problem encountered during adulthood is the gradual loss of muscle. This decrease is really an insidious process that gradually puts on unwanted kgs. For every 10 years of adult life, both men and women have the potential to lose 2.3 kgs of muscle and gain 6.8 kgs of fat. Because muscle is a very active tissue, it plays a major role in maintaining metabolism. The simple fact is the more muscle you have, the higher your metabolic rate, enabling your body to burn more calories - even at rest.
Without question, strength training is the most important ingredient in the fat loss solution. BodyTech’s No-Momentum™ style of strength training is the best means of replacing your lost muscle and revving up your metabolism. For every kg of muscle you add through strength training, your resting metabolic rate has the potential to increase an extra 100 calories a day. What’s more, unlike cardiovascular training, a BodyTech strength training programme offers three advantages with regard to your energy use.
| 30 min strength training session | 240 calories/session |
| 2 hour post-exercise period | 60 calories |
| 1 kg regained muscles | 100 calories/day |
| Total calories cost per training day | 400 calories |
When you consider it takes about the same amount of calories (240) for a 30 minute walk, jog or cycle, you can see that BodyTech’s style of strength training and resulting metabolic rate increases are actually far more beneficial – in fact, around 800 more calories than an equivalent three day a week cardiovascular training programme of equal duration (30 minutes).
The Fat2MUSCLE programme is designed to regain lost muscle. Adding muscle increases and recharges your metabolism enabling you to burn
