What Is It?
'Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle' is a 337 - page ebook that shows you how to lose weight by - obviously - burning fat vs burning muscle or losing water weight.
It shows you the techniques and tips that body builders and fitness models use to lose fat and get those show-ready bodies.
It's one of the longest e-books we've ever come across - but it does cover everything from goal setting, to identifying your body type to meal frequency to supplements to exercising and more - basically everything you could ever want to know about how your body burns fat.
Pros:
Despite all the hype, it's actually pleasantly surprising that this book offers a fair, balanced view of weight loss: you won't get an incredible body overnight - but if you're willing to be dedicated, work at it and follow what the book says, you can get an incredible body.
There's alot of scientific fitness and fat-burning facts - and if that kind of stuff interests you, you'll love this book. (For example, if you're the kind of person who finds it easier to follow a program if you understand exactly why you're eating what you're eating, why you're eating when you're eating, etc.)
Burn the Fat is not a high protein diet - or a low carb diet for that matter. It's emphasis is really on a healthy mix of proteins, fats and carbs.
Considering the many other crazy, unbalanced diets on the market - this balanced approach will help you lose weight without taking any chances with your health (because, say you've cut out an entire food group or you're so low on carbs you're walking around in a total brain-fog).
'Burn the Fat, Feed The Muscle' shows you how to analyze your body type (are you an endomorph, ectomorph, or mesomorph?). You then determine your BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate, or the amount of "maintenance" calories your body requires every day). You'll also find out whether you are carb tolerant or carb intolerant.
In the rest of the book, you learn the exact mechanics of fat loss - explained on both a scientific and a practical level (which you can easily apply in your own daily life in terms of what to eat and how to exercise to burn fat).
Another pro is that Burn the Fat is in e-book form, which means you can download it within a few minutes and get started right away. You're also covered by a 100% satisfaction guarantee. It's also a one time cost ($39.95). When compared to other diet programs where you pay $100+ each week, it's a great value.
Does it work? Yes. There are countless testimonials on the website to prove this and even pictures from real people who have lost fat with this program. I personally tried it and found I lost about 2 pounds (of body fat - not muscle) a week.
Cons:
Obviously if you're looking to lose 10 pounds fast, this is not the program for you. This is not a fad diet by any means and some people may not like this way of burning fat.
Plus Tom Venuto does emphasize exercise in the program, so if you don't have time or for medical reasons say, can't put a lot into exercise, you may feel like you can't fully do the program.
Bottom Line: Highly Recommended
If you're looking to reshape your body and want a fair, balanced way to burn fat and lose weight, 'Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle' really is one of the best resources out there.
Whether you're a woman trying to lose weight or a guy looking to beef up, you can still use the information provided to shape your body the way you want it to look.
