@BodyPerformanceTV, but what if you are able to not eat breakfast and not snack, maybe I just have good will power but I usually eat something like a a turkey sandwich and some chips for lunch maybe some chicken breast for dinner or maybe a sandwich, I never snack and I don't eat breakfast, this will result in weight loss correct because technically since I am not taking in extra calories from skipping breakfast it should be fine?

@BrownsGuy815 If you can stand the taste of skim, then that would be the way to go. It contains less fat so is lower than calories. This allows you to drink greater quantities of milk. If you want to drink 2%, that is fine except saturated fats are not very good for the body and you won't be able to drink as much. I have gotten used to skim over the years and 2% milk tastes weird to me now.
idk about this breakfast thing really. I know a few people who fast from time to time and they don't seem to complain about being hungry. Then tey do have a huge meal at the end of the day, but how big can a meal be? it's probably not more than 1000 calories for the day
Hi, you have that u work out 6 times/day. do u really mean day or week. Even if it is week that might still be too much. 2500 calories is too much as well. Follow serving sizes. Have three meals two snacks. Meal snack meal snack meal. drink water with every meal. and remember all you need is 1 serving size of what ever u use. and get lots of rest.

Hi there..I was wandering if you could help me with this..I work out usually 6 times a day and do mostly cardio..on the days I only do cardio I burn an average of 2000 cals..I am trying to lose weight but I am not sure how much I should be eating..Today I had 2500 cals..i never use to eat that much!!! will i still lose the weight? thank you!!!
using machines are OKAY, but it's not as effective as using regular weights such as bench pressing (unless you have bowflex because you train your muscles through resistance, not fake weight.)
For the abs, do crunches, NOT situps.
Crunches work your upper abs, situps doesn't do anything. For the lower abs, do leglifts.
Do 50 crunches then alternate to 50 leglifts on each legs. Then work on upper body and just keep switching and do that for 20-40mins.
If you eat 2500 calories, and burn 2000 through cardio, the chances are that you will eith go in zero, or lose a little.
this because of the calories your body spends to keep itself alive.
However if you burn 2000 calories in total, and eat 2500 then 500 of these calories are stored as fat. Easy explained, burn more then you eat, but never eat to little.

Fasting is good for spiritual reasons, but not the best way to loose weight. Fasting puts your body in a low energy state so you will burn calories slower. Thats why its important to eat breakdafast, just eat less.
you should have gained that in 3-4 months.have you ever thought of using roids,they do these ones when a gay fat turkish man who is sweating like a pig to put the roid pill on the japs eye of his 18inch penis and bang them up your ass from behind with a bag over your head,sound nice call 07960399512
Don't waste your time. It does not "Cleanse" the body or get rid of toxins. Plus, the next day you're starving. Plus, it slows the utilzation of calories. Just eat normal amounts and get some exercise.
Steve,I generally work at night and when I get up generally go straight to lunch.Any tips of how I should plan my meals especially since I stay up late?Many thanks inadvance!
So as long as hunger is not an issue, eating breakfast and eating regularly are non essential for losing weight since it does not affect the BMR?
How long time must pass for the body to feel the glukos% in the plasma is too low and start to break down muscle tissue?
Is BMR anyway tied to the Cortisol cycle of the day? As it inhibits insulin, could one plan high protein/fat meals when the cortisol concentration is at its lowest to counter a lowered glykogen reduction?
dear steve i am fascinated by your humerous style. thanks a lot for the usefull info. it is great! u r the most down to earth and honest guy in this business. good lcu with everything!
Ok guys check this out if you didnt notice ! look around ! everyone is diffrent ! some are fat some are averg and some are skinny ! people work diff bodies are diff ! so you need to treat diff bodies diff ways !
Cardio will not affect musclar gains until an individual does an excess amount of it. Meaning they start training like a marathoner. Intensity also palys a role too. Also, current musclarity plays a role as well. But 20-30 mintues of jogging or 45 minuts of walking 3-4 times a week is not an issue.
Hey Steve, I'm a 16YO Male, about 5'10 175pds and I'm trying to build more muscles as fast as possible...I've been weight lifting alot but I am curious if cardio plays a role in muscle gain? I can only run for about 2 minutes at a time before I get exauhsted...When I go to the gym I try to fit some cardio in but I don't do much at all...any info on how cardio plays a role in muscle gain? And I do drink protein shakes regularly even though you say not to because it help my muscles soreness.
Hey steve, ive been working out for about two months and have seen results. I am trying to loose weight quickly and safely over the summer. Ive been eating five small meals a day and two of them are protein shakes. I eat an egg white omlet for breakfast most mornings--is eating "lean" proteins like this doing me any good for speeding up metabolism?
no some people need calories to exersise the weight lifters eat alot to and exersise and do weights, carbohydrates fuel your body i know based on biochemistry i know most from the physed
Hey Steve .. I'm trying to build muscle but I'm alss trying to get leaner, what's the best way to do this without compromising my muscle growth. Can you give me any advice .. thanks Steve
it has nothing to do with satisfying your hunger, its about keeping your metabolism up. where are you coming up with this bogus info. are you making this up as you go?
want to really loose weight ? have a sensible breakfast of either peanut butter on wheat toats or oatmeal, then for every other meal eat skinless chicken breast, seasoned but no sause, with a side of mixed vegis. no snacks. I do this for 6 weeks or so before a contest and drop down to single digit body fat.
Well im not sure if im a moron for following what you say so closely but i stumbled across your videos some time ago, I watch them religiously and i have to say so far so good.
I have a calorie counter on the site. But most people think they burn more calories than they really do. Think about walking a mile burning 80 calories and running a mile burning about 100. Use this as a reference.
I believe the site is open now but I'm hoping you'll be able to join by Monday!
I just discovered you yesterday - you rock. Blunt, truthful and straight forward. Makes losing weight seem less confusing and gives me hope in achieving my goals.
Two Questions.
What accurate resources would recommend detailing the amount of calories burned for different types of exercises? I want to keep track as accurately as I can of how many I burn.
What is the general timeline of the complete launch of you website - I like what I see so far.
Yep, unless you properly cultivate an artificial body, you'll orphan your child. Steve Turano is my personal savoir, I can't wait for my Oprah special, I'd better think up something sassy to say.
well how can some people do this like ufc fighters they lift weights and do kickboxing and bjj and all thats sorta stuff is it because there used to all that stress?
hi steve im really sore after kickboxing and i want to start weight training but im already so sore from kickboxing how can i start lifting weights on top of that is there anything i can do about this?
You might try easing up on the kick boxing just long enough for you to start weight training. We just don't want you doing both and becoming soooo sore you can't move or get hurt.
This is great information! I have seen just about every single video that you have put out so far and wow! I have read a lot of fat loss/muscle building info over the years, but I've never seen someone put it out there in such an organized/simple manner that everyone could understand. This is weight loss/muscle building in it's most simple form, yet I find that because you put it out there in such a way, that I can apply this info to my diet/weight training/cardio much easier. Thanks Steve!
I understand that you have to burn more calories then you take in a day. In regards to cardio, I know that your body burns calories throughout the day, so how many calories or what percent of your calories do you have to burn? Thanks Again
another question how do you do your workouts like how many sets and reps and do you work out your whole body at once or like me one muscle group at a time?
Yes, if they are 3 working sets. Meaning they are difficult to complete. Eventually you will probably have to add either more sets, reps or exercises.
hey steve i cant wait for your site to be up i want to join. can i ask you a question about my weight training? im working out 2 muscle groups a day so today i did shoulders and bicep and im wondering if im doing 3 sets of 8 reps for each muscle group is this good?
Damn I sure hope so. We're loading the free audios, the down loadable audios, the videos and so on. Once we're up and running then I'll upload the men and women's workouts.
Facts in every single one of his videos. it's good to see that somebody takes the time to explain what fitness really is and what it takes to lose weight/build muscle etc. thx bro. LOVE YOUR BODY!!!
Hey steve i have a question is it true that if you do morning cardio before eating breakfast i heared that you are losing fat and muscle at the same time because your body is in starvation mode is true or false
I have watched a lot of you videos, and I was just wondering, if I do cardio 3 times a week and lift heavy, can i gain mass while losing fat (showing abs)?
Absolutely. Guys act like 30 mintues of walking or 20 mintues of jogging, both which burn only about 150 calories, will cause muscle loss That's total BS. AND my next video will cover this in more detail!
You can have breads, pastas, potatos, etc. Not a problem. And these supply more calories and energy. Just watch your TOTAL daily calorie intake. Fruits and veggies have MUCH less calories so you can eat lots of them. But since they don't have many calories it''s difficult to use ONLY them as an energy sourse. This is why you need higher calorie carbs as well.
Thank and great job!!! Many people don't have the courage or the discipline to start. You should be very proud. I'll still be posting videos on You Tube just not answering questions. You'll still be able to access me through my new website. Keep up the good work! ~Steve
steve before you leave youtube i just gotta tell you man your awesome. i decided to lose weight after watching just one of your videos and it changed me. ive lost 40 lbs in about 2 months and i couldnt have done it without you. thanks!
mabey not, but ive been taking thermobol, it DOES seem to be an appetite suppresent, also its all natural ingredients, it may or may not work, but i dont think its doing me any harm right ?
you are probably right, they recon the orange peel and the capsicum from the pepper, speeds up metabolisim, but that probably crap, if nothing else Steve, i take them and inspires me to eat and train well as i dont want to waste them.
every little helps as i have to take systemeic steroids for crohns disease, wich makes me put on weight.. deppressing stuff.
Actually eating throughout the day instead of eating big meals will boost your matabolism so its all up to the person to decide if they have big cravings then they might want to have big meals or if they want to lose weight, well increase that matabolism and eating thoughout the day will help that!
hey steve skipping rope and punching and kicking a boxing bag isnt that good for weight loss but its good for stamina right? so all those work outs dont burn that much calories but they get you in good shape right?
the workouts are one thing but the eating is a whole different story im not losing excess fat becos i cant help but snack, anyway for me to avoid this habit
Heres a personal tip to stop snacking, try to eat healthier foods like nuts, flax, hemp, quinoa, coconut, etc because there high on protien and will help keep you full (hopefully full enough to stop that snacking ;)
Hi Steve, I thought fruits had a lot of sugar in them and that eating too much wouldn't be healthy? I'm thinking this is wrong (and I hope so too because I love fruits) but I'm not sure.
Not bad but.1) Expensive 2) Independent handles with cables are difficult to use and control. Meaning using a bar is easier. 3) Increasing tension is difficult to lift vs. constant tention. Ex- weight stack or free weights vs. power bands. 4) The people in the infomercial got in shape using free weights, machines, diet, cardio and are professional models. I'd rather join a gym,.
If we eat organic foods, and stuff of that nature, we get more nutrients more energy to lose weight, and feel better. we need to avoid GMO foods aspartame, BPA (in plastics), fluoride (toothpaste, tap water, at the dentist, etc.), chlorine (tap water), MSG, vaccines (if you look closely you will find a cover up by big pharma in the vaccines bad vs good and you will find there bad, but dont let me say this, look it up), and much more to avoid and we will feel better and happier.
Dude, you're bringing up stuff that has no relevance here. Vaccines, chlorinated water and flouride have nothing to do with weight loss and you're buying into a bunch of conspiracy theory nuttiness.
When you feel good and have a good immune system and don't get sick, you feel better, happier and feel like working out more and you get sick less so your workout schedule will not be interupted by you sickness! Vaccines, chlorine and fluoride all weaken the immune system so if you get a sickenss that may ruin your workout schedule.
You can lift weights just like anybody else. Using machines would be much easier than any type of body weight exercises. 2-3 times a week. Start out slow & genlty. Then LOTS of cardio. If possible short sessions 10-15 minutes 3-5 timesa day. This will get your body used to exercising and using fat! Then you can increase your time and decrease the sessions.
Too true, I weigh 444lbs. I started eating breakfast again after about 10 years of going without. I've lost 7 lbs over the last week just from eating 2 plain boiled eggs in the morning.
What are some exercises/activities you would suggest for someone who is morbidly obese?
and also you say it doesnt matter what you eat it matters how much you eat. but im wondering what if you eat really fatty foods but your eating not that much of it where does all the fat in the food go that your eating?
what would happen if you have maybe a peice of toast and maybe a chicken breast witch is about 400 calories and you drank beer for the rest of your calories what would happen?
Should we eat a balanced breakfast as opposed to just foods that contain carbs? yes! Not everyone has the same metabolic needs. I am a protein type you maybe a mixed type. Balanced is best. Fat is not the bad guy. Moderation is key.
Steve, that's an awful lot of carbs w/o enough fat. Way to mess up you blood glucose balance! Fat has a role in weight loss. It is what satiates hunger for long periods of time. Low fat don't work in the long run.
Sorry but it isn't too many carbs. Plus carbs DO NOT raise your blood sugar as much as the inexperienced think. And those foods contain enough fats that 1) you don't have to supplement with fat OR 2) the fat slows the absorption of suagr. Low fat ,and therefore lower calorie, absolutely works!
i always feel better when i eat breakfast!

I think I've got your answer.
I'm no expert but I know some things.
You really do not need to eat that much.
Just stay away from sodas and extra food, like candy and dessert.
I work out 4 times a week working on atleast three different areas.
Run a mile and work out the muscles you want to improve on. In my case, the pecs and the abs.

My pleasure. I WISH we burned more calories through activities and exercise. If we did I would be eating a lot more chocolate!!!

Steve:
I want to publicly commend you. You have done a lot of work with your videos. Very good info for free.
You are in shape yourself. Scientists are not infallible. After much thought I am going with your figure on the calories burned OVER Cameron et al
Many of these scientists do not look like they can get good fat loss results themselves.
So thank you Steve for all you do. Your inpout counts A LOT.
sexylisagirl23 2 years ago
Steve is right. Many persons greatly over estimate just how many calories walking or running burns. The calorie burn is surprisingly low.
penileperfection 2 years ago
I disagree. Where did you hear that running burns little calories?
msswan 2 years ago
it has nothing to do with satisfying your hunger, its about keeping your metabolism up. where are you coming up with this bogus info. are you making this up as you go?
want to really loose weight ? have a sensible breakfast of either peanut butter on wheat toats or oatmeal, then for every other meal eat skinless chicken breast, seasoned but no sause, with a side of mixed vegis. no snacks. I do this for 6 weeks or so before a contest and drop down to single digit body fat.

Well im not sure if im a moron for following what you say so closely but i stumbled across your videos some time ago, I watch them religiously and i have to say so far so good.
ChrisMckeehan 2 years ago
I have a calorie counter on the site. But most people think they burn more calories than they really do. Think about walking a mile burning 80 calories and running a mile burning about 100. Use this as a reference.
I believe the site is open now but I'm hoping you'll be able to join by Monday!

I just discovered you yesterday - you rock. Blunt, truthful and straight forward. Makes losing weight seem less confusing and gives me hope in achieving my goals.
Two Questions.
What accurate resources would recommend detailing the amount of calories burned for different types of exercises? I want to keep track as accurately as I can of how many I burn.
What is the general timeline of the complete launch of you website - I like what I see so far.
Looking forward to loving my body.
thx

Why should one become OCD about transforming themselves into an ornament of culturally relative vanity? Is this pursuit enjoyable or sastifying?

is it enjoyable or satisfying to die young and leave your family/kids early because you arent doing enough to stay healthy?

Yep, unless you properly cultivate an artificial body, you'll orphan your child. Steve Turano is my personal savoir, I can't wait for my Oprah special, I'd better think up something sassy to say.

Yes. You can do it too you just have to get there gradually over time.

hi steve im really sore after kickboxing and i want to start weight training but im already so sore from kickboxing how can i start lifting weights on top of that is there anything i can do about this?
bdbfighting 2 years ago
You might try easing up on the kick boxing just long enough for you to start weight training. We just don't want you doing both and becoming soooo sore you can't move or get hurt.
BodyPerformanceTV 2 years ago
Thank you! Thank you! Wait until you see my new site. Coming in a few days.
BodyPerformanceTV 2 years ago
This is great information! I have seen just about every single video that you have put out so far and wow! I have read a lot of fat loss/muscle building info over the years, but I've never seen someone put it out there in such an organized/simple manner that everyone could understand. This is weight loss/muscle building in it's most simple form, yet I find that because you put it out there in such a way, that I can apply this info to my diet/weight training/cardio much easier. Thanks Steve!
floorit123 2 years ago
It will depend on how much you exercise and how much weight you want to lose. But if you burn 10% and exercise you can gradually lose weight.
BodyPerformanceTV 2 years ago
I understand that you have to burn more calories then you take in a day. In regards to cardio, I know that your body burns calories throughout the day, so how many calories or what percent of your calories do you have to burn? Thanks Again

Mark Sisson says intermittent fasting is good Steve. What is wrong with 18 hours of fasting now and then?
DirkSteinberg26 2 years ago
another question how do you do your workouts like how many sets and reps and do you work out your whole body at once or like me one muscle group at a time?
bdbfighting 2 years ago
10-12 WORKING sets. 3-4 exercises. Train M-F. One body part a day except Mondays when we train chest and tris.
BodyPerformanceTV 2 years ago
yes there hard to complete really hard. ans the next day there pretty sore thanks steve
bdbfighting 2 years ago
Yes, if they are 3 working sets. Meaning they are difficult to complete. Eventually you will probably have to add either more sets, reps or exercises.
BodyPerformanceTV 2 years ago
hey steve i cant wait for your site to be up i want to join. can i ask you a question about my weight training? im working out 2 muscle groups a day so today i did shoulders and bicep and im wondering if im doing 3 sets of 8 reps for each muscle group is this good?
bdbfighting 2 years ago
Damn I sure hope so. We're loading the free audios, the down loadable audios, the videos and so on. Once we're up and running then I'll upload the men and women's workouts.

BodyPerformanceTV 2 years ago
Hey,
I have watched a lot of you videos, and I was just wondering, if I do cardio 3 times a week and lift heavy, can i gain mass while losing fat (showing abs)?
OROTAO 2 years ago
Absolutely. Guys act like 30 mintues of walking or 20 mintues of jogging, both which burn only about 150 calories, will cause muscle loss That's total BS. AND my next video will cover this in more detail!

hey steve would it be better if i get my carbs from fruits and vegitables instead of pasta and bread? so would it be better the same or worse?
bdbfighting 2 years ago
You can have breads, pastas, potatos, etc. Not a problem. And these supply more calories and energy. Just watch your TOTAL daily calorie intake. Fruits and veggies have MUCH less calories so you can eat lots of them. But since they don't have many calories it''s difficult to use ONLY them as an energy sourse. This is why you need higher calorie carbs as well.

Save your money. They don't burn fat or cause weight loss..
BodyPerformanceTV 2 years ago
mabey not, but ive been taking thermobol, it DOES seem to be an appetite suppresent, also its all natural ingredients, it may or may not work, but i dont think its doing me any harm right ?
robblac 2 years ago
Appetite suppressant just keep you from eating so you lose weight. No pill burns fat.
BodyPerformanceTV 2 years ago
you are probably right, they recon the orange peel and the capsicum from the pepper, speeds up metabolisim, but that probably crap, if nothing else Steve, i take them and inspires me to eat and train well as i dont want to waste them.
every little helps as i have to take systemeic steroids for crohns disease, wich makes me put on weight.. deppressing stuff.
robblac 2 years ago
no, not even crunches, just do cardio and eat less and your abs will show up
cdm386 2 years ago
yeah eat enough food at one sitting so you dont snack and grave food
bdbfighting 2 years ago
Actually eating throughout the day instead of eating big meals will boost your matabolism so its all up to the person to decide if they have big cravings then they might want to have big meals or if they want to lose weight, well increase that matabolism and eating thoughout the day will help that!

hey steve skipping rope and punching and kicking a boxing bag isnt that good for weight loss but its good for stamina right? so all those work outs dont burn that much calories but they get you in good shape right?
bdbfighting 2 years ago
Yes. But those activities will burn fat and calories as well. I'm just saying that roadowrk is a bit better since it uses the legs more completely.
BodyPerformanceTV 2 years ago
Agreed!
the workouts are one thing but the eating is a whole different story im not losing excess fat becos i cant help but snack, anyway for me to avoid this habit
94tib08 2 years ago
Heres a personal tip to stop snacking, try to eat healthier foods like nuts, flax, hemp, quinoa, coconut, etc because there high on protien and will help keep you full (hopefully full enough to stop that snacking ;)
ty99999returns 2 years ago
cheers mate i'll give it a go
94tib08 2 years ago
Eat fruit. You can eat unlimited amounts and it will never make you fat.
BodyPerformanceTV 2 years ago
Hi Steve, I thought fruits had a lot of sugar in them and that eating too much wouldn't be healthy? I'm thinking this is wrong (and I hope so too because I love fruits) but I'm not sure.
Ovulate 2 years ago
Nope. You can eat fruit. Not much sugar, low in calories, lots of water and fiber.
BodyPerformanceTV 2 years ago
Not bad but.1) Expensive 2) Independent handles with cables are difficult to use and control. Meaning using a bar is easier. 3) Increasing tension is difficult to lift vs. constant tention. Ex- weight stack or free weights vs. power bands. 4) The people in the infomercial got in shape using free weights, machines, diet, cardio and are professional models. I'd rather join a gym,.
BodyPerformanceTV 2 years ago
hey steve what do you think of the bowflex? i always see it on T.V
bdbfighting 2 years ago
If we eat organic foods, and stuff of that nature, we get more nutrients more energy to lose weight, and feel better. we need to avoid GMO foods aspartame, BPA (in plastics), fluoride (toothpaste, tap water, at the dentist, etc.), chlorine (tap water), MSG, vaccines (if you look closely you will find a cover up by big pharma in the vaccines bad vs good and you will find there bad, but dont let me say this, look it up), and much more to avoid and we will feel better and happier.
ty99999returns 2 years ago
Dude, you're bringing up stuff that has no relevance here. Vaccines, chlorinated water and flouride have nothing to do with weight loss and you're buying into a bunch of conspiracy theory nuttiness.
dlvrymon 2 years ago
WRONG!
When you feel good and have a good immune system and don't get sick, you feel better, happier and feel like working out more and you get sick less so your workout schedule will not be interupted by you sickness! Vaccines, chlorine and fluoride all weaken the immune system so if you get a sickenss that may ruin your workout schedule.
ty99999returns 2 years ago 2
The sun makes you healthier for your workout. Why you may ask, well heres why, the red light helps increase the flow of oxygen.
Vitamin D is good for your overall health and can make you feel better if your lacking vitamin d.
KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK STEVE!
ty99999returns 2 years ago
You can lift weights just like anybody else. Using machines would be much easier than any type of body weight exercises. 2-3 times a week. Start out slow & genlty. Then LOTS of cardio. If possible short sessions 10-15 minutes 3-5 timesa day. This will get your body used to exercising and using fat! Then you can increase your time and decrease the sessions.

Too true, I weigh 444lbs. I started eating breakfast again after about 10 years of going without. I've lost 7 lbs over the last week just from eating 2 plain boiled eggs in the morning.

sayfaylo 2 years ago
Same place carbs and proteins go. They are broken down into energy. But if you're in good shape your body uses fats and more calories!
BodyPerformanceTV 2 years ago
what would happen if you have maybe a peice of toast and maybe a chicken breast witch is about 400 calories and you drank beer for the rest of your calories what would happen?
bdbfighting 2 years ago
LOL! Again, you will lose weight if you have a calorie deficit.

Should we eat a balanced breakfast as opposed to just foods that contain carbs? yes! Not everyone has the same metabolic needs. I am a protein type you maybe a mixed type. Balanced is best. Fat is not the bad guy. Moderation is key.

Sure, but it's not critical. But there are proteins, fats and carbs in the foods I mentioned.

I usually just have a Nature's Valley granola bar. Two if I'm really hungry. It's about 90 Cals each. Would that be okay?
kingmikeofthenorth 2 years ago
Steve, that's an awful lot of carbs w/o enough fat. Way to mess up you blood glucose balance! Fat has a role in weight loss. It is what satiates hunger for long periods of time. Low fat don't work in the long run.
B0thergirl 2 years ago
Sorry but it isn't too many carbs. Plus carbs DO NOT raise your blood sugar as much as the inexperienced think. And those foods contain enough fats that 1) you don't have to supplement with fat OR 2) the fat slows the absorption of suagr. Low fat ,and therefore lower calorie, absolutely works!
BodyPerformanceTV 2 years ago
Steve, I know more about nutrition than you think. Plus i am a diabetic. You are dead wrong about carbs and fat.
