The Problem with Weight Loss: Your Body Will Do The Opposite.
Posted by: | CommentsAlright I normally like to blog at least once a week but I didn’t really have any time so I am just going to post an article here by uber fat loss expert Alwyn Cosgrove. Alwyn Cosgrove has some of the best fat loss programs out there and a lot of the other good ones were created from research and practices taught by him. He is one of the people I always research to get cutting edge stuff because his stuff works plain and simple.
The Problem with Weight Loss: Your Body Will Do The Opposite.
By Alwyn Cosgrove
Homeostasis is the property of a living organism, that regulates its internal environment so as to maintain a stable, constant condition.
When you don’t drink enough water in the short term — often the body retains water. It attempts to maintain homeostasis by counteracting the stresses we put on it.
When you drink a lot of extra water – your body excretes more water to maintain balance.
When we weight train — we actually break down muscle tissue. And the body responds by building new muscle. It attempts to maintain homeostasis by doing the reverse of the stimulus we placed on it.
When a male takes supplemental testosterone — the body shuts down its own production in a bid to maintain homeostasis.
When we immunize children against disease — we actually inject them with a small dose of that disease. The immune system recognizes the vaccine as foreign, destroys it, and ‘remembers’ it. When the virulent version of an agent comes along, the immune system is thus prepared to respond. In order to prepare the body to defend against a disease – we expose it to the disease – and it responds by doing the opposite – it destroys the disease.
In almost every situation I can think of, the body tries to maintain homeostasis by “doing the opposite” of the stimulus.
How does this apply to weight loss?
Now we know that while you are doing it — low intensity exercise burns primarily fat.
Higher intensity exercise actually burns more carb stores than fat.
But in every head to head comparison, high intensity exercise results in more fat loss than low intensity exercise – even though the more intense work may burn a lesser percentage of fat during the exercise session.
Burning glycogen results in a larger amount of fat lost than burning fat directly.
The body responds by “doing the opposite”…
Break down muscle to grow more muscle. Burn glycogen to lose more fat.
I designed Warp Speed Fat Loss training program to specifically take advantage of this ‘law’ of nature so that when your body “does the opposite” you’ll end up with faster and greater fat loss.

So far I must say I have been very happy with the equipment I have gotten from this company. That is why I always refer people to them. Their shipping is fast. Their prices are fair. Their equipment is high quality. I have ordered from rival companies in the past and have been disappointed. With a thing as simple as a kettlebell you would think it wouldn’t matter where you go but that is wrong. The kettlebells from this company are great. The ones in target and such not so much. Also I have ordered like 150lbs of kettlebells and only paid $20 for shipping. Not bad right?
