Might not be for you, but you may know someone interested in making a more substantial income along side what theyre currently doing...
They may hate the job theyre already doing and wanting a new path to follow..
I have a very exciting job opportunity for those in that kind of situation...
&im currently working with very succsessful people right now. who are earning up to 10grand a month.. (and btw it only took them a year to get that far)
So while all of my friends are studying in uni (and im not mocking university or people choosing to study 3/4years at university) but i knew straight away that it wasnt for me.
I didnt fancy yet MORE education.. EXAMS... and trying to pay off debt fees years later.
Tbh I prefer making money with little effort. Thats just me.
But like i said some people prefer to study at university and get a 'Proper' job at the end of it...
I'd prefer the freedom and to work for myself.. and by starting out at my age I think my future is looking pretty bright tbh.

Pepermint Dark Chocolate slice and bake cookies - 55.3 calories each
Number of Servings: 72
Ingredients
- 1large egg
1 egg white
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 sticks I Can't Believe It's Not Butter cooking and baking blend, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour*
1 cup white whole wheat flour
1/2 cup dark chocolate drops
4 sugar-free candy canes
Tips
During the busy holiday season, prepare cookie dough ahead of time and then bake close to serving time. The cookies always taste better when freshly baked. This recipie is a basic dough but allows a lot of creativity. You can add your favorite flavoring to the dough and then roll the cookie log in different chopped nuts or use holiday cookie sprinkles. This dough will refrigerate well for two days and will freeze nicely for up to two months. If you want to use egg substitute in this dough, that will work as well. Follow the instructions on the package for accurate substitution.
This recipe was created by Patricia Huller C.C.E., M.Ed., a culinary instructor and healthy baking expert from Cincinnati State's Midwest Culinary Institute, especially for SparkRecipes.

BULK UP!
There is a whole lot of pressure even for men and some women on bulking up and building up muscle... but it is important to take into account the correct way on building this muscle.
If you are
very lean in the off season, when it comes to diet about 85% of the battle is
over. If your body fat is low, you will be stronger and more mentally prepared
to hit that shredded, ripped look. Also you will not have to diet as hard for a
long period of time which can take a negative toll on your lean muscle mass.
Also, from speaking with other top natural bodybuilders, staying leaner in the
off season causes you to be tighter all over including the trouble areas such as
the glutes and hamstrings. Ron Coleman said that he did not get his glutes
striated until one year of consistent dieting and staying lean. I believe now
that there are certain areas on our bodies that will not release the small
amounts of fat stored there unless we are lean for a very extended period of
time.
So how do we stay lean and tight and assure good quality muscle? Well
for starters you need to have the right diet. I would make sure you eat
small-medium sized meals every 2 - 2.5 hours. Each meal should contain a lean,
high quality protein source (25-50 grams, depending on your body weight), a
clean, low glycemic, complex carbohydrate source (approx. 50
grams), and a green fibrous vegetable. This is the time to write which foods you
eat in your journal to see how your body reacts to them. Remember you need to
learn what works for you to really start tapping in to your potential.
TRAINING
As far as training goes, overload that muscle with progressively
heavier and heavier weights. Give that muscle a new stimulus to adapt to by
growing. Try not to be in the gym for any longer than 1 hour and 15 minutes. I
would even strive to get an intense weight training session in as little as 45
minutes. If you find you are going over that mark try doing less sets but going
full intensity for each one... 6-8 reps have worked well for me in the past.
Again your body may be different so try 3-6, 4-8, 8-12, until you find what is
working best for your body.
Cardio? YES!!
You must make cardiovascular
exercise a part of your lifestyle. This will keep your metabolism cranking all
the time. It will allow you to eat more and stay leaner. It also helps your body
assimilate and use most of the food you are consuming. I do it for the benefits
in my training such as those last 3-4 reps when squatting or dead lifting.
Depending on how you want to look I would perform 30-45 minutes, 5 days a week.
If you want to eat more and have the discipline, do a little bit more cardio and
increase your food intake.
Use The Mirror!
Yes, this is another must. DO not get on the scale to help determine
if you are gaining muscle. Use the mirror. If you see you are getting a little
smooth, you must adjust your cardio and diet accordingly until your physique
reaches the leanness you desire. Vice versa if you feel weak and lethargic,
boost you calories slightly, by about 100 a week, until you tighten and fill
out. Do not remove the cardio; just eat more clean food.
Body Fat Testing
I
would recommend that you also get your body fat measure by the same personal
trainer every month. This will be a great way to see if you are putting the lean
body mass on that you want. If you are 200lbs at 10% body fat in January, and in
March you are 198 at 8% body fat, even though you may weigh less your lean body
mass has gone up 2 lbs. This means not only are you leaner and lost fat, but you
are also bigger. If you find that you have gained more fat than muscle, or lost
muscle, go back to the diet and make the adjustments that need to be made such
as raising your protein or lowering you calories, etc.
Conclusion
As you can see this does take discipline. Trust when I say it will
make your life a whole lot easier come time for competition. Not only will you
be mentally stronger, you will be physically stronger. You will be able to keep
your calories higher ensuring you of keeping those extra pounds of muscle you
earned. You will feel better in the off season because you will look better.
Just remember to keep track of how much and what food you are eating to find out
what is the best approach for you and your body. Sure, go enjoy yourself once or
twice a week with your favorite foods, but keep it moderate.

There is a rather easy soloution and easy but also intense training programme which many have found to be very succsessful, why not try it out?...BULK UP
A common question raised is
Do you bulk up fast or stay lean while gaining size?...
Here are common questions and tips for
gaining muscle the right way!
How do I gain good quality muscle size for competition?"
Through high school and the past couple of years I have tried
different ways of putting on muscle size. I tried the conventional "bulking up",
and I also took the "staying lean" route in my off seasons between competitions.
I personally feel that with proper tracking of your nutrition and very intense
training, the best way to gain that muscle size and keep it for your
competition, would be to stay relatively lean and tight all year.

9 Daily changes to loose weight. FAST!
1. Take Interest In What The Label Says
2. Realize That Not all Fats Are The Same
3. Stop Taking Supplements
4. Set Your Health Goals In A Tiered Fashion
5. Buy A Juice Machine
6. Chose A Role Model And Aspire To Be Like Them
7. Involve A Friend Who Is Attempting The Same Goals
8. Make Exercising Non-Negotiable
9. Make Sure People Around You Know What Your Goals Are
- Don't read the label because it is what experts say you should do. Genuinely take interest in what you are eating beyond how it will impact your goals.
- Learn enough about what goes into the foods that you can create your own diet without blindly following a plan.
2. Realize That Not all Fats Are The Same
- Fats come in many forms, but are often lumped into one category... unhealthy. This is not true, we need fats for energy but some fats are better than others.
- Sat/Trans Fats - These should be only eaten in moderation. It's important to read the label here because more foods today are loaded with these two.
- Mono/Poly - These are the good fats. They are in fact good for you and will support your goals if you make sure to keep them a priority and limit or even cut out the sat/trans fats.
3. Stop Taking Supplements
- Supplements are often used as a crutch or a mechanism that allows an individual believe they are taking steps to be healthy. These products are meant only to add on to an already healthy diet. If you truly believed you were already healthy in your lifestyle, you wouldn't be taking supplements.
- The claims on the packaging are intended only to get you to buy them, realistically you probably won't receive any of the benefits it claims to provide.
- They are extremely expensive. You could by the freshest products from the grocery store with the money you save from not buying supplements.
4. Set Your Health Goals In A Tiered Fashion
- If you get out of breathe walking up the stairs then a marathon might be out of the question for the moment. You'll need to work up to the final goal.
- An example could be: walk for 30 minutes everyday until it's too easy, move up to walking with short running segments, try to run for extended distances, etc.
5. Buy A Juice Machine
- Which would you rather consume, a basket full of fruits and vegetables that would take a considerable amount of time to eat and leave you really full? Or a glass of juice with all the nutrients and vitamins as that same basket without the time spent eating it.
- A juice machine can greatly improve anyone's life if one or two glasses are prepared and consumed eat day in addition to normal meals.
6. Chose A Role Model And Aspire To Be Like Them
- This doesn't mean chose your thin neighbor who eats fast food all day. They are not an ideal role model.
- Chose someone who has already achieved what you wish to accomplish and talk to them if possible. See what worked for them and what didn't. See what mistakes they made and what they found worked well.
- Keep them in mind when making a decision that could affect your goals negatively. "Would she choose that for lunch if she was here?
7. Involve A Friend Who Is Attempting The Same Goals
- Humans are competitive in nature. You will have an extra push to force a change in yourself for the better because someone is trying to beat you to it!
- You'll have someone to compared challenges or triumphs with. Your partner will be able to appreciate even a minor change you made because they are going through the same thing.
8. Make Exercising Non-Negotiable
- Turn exercise into something that must be done. Not because it is a chore but rather because you will be disappointed in yourself if you fail to do so.
- Set aside a certain time of the day for exercise so you are not trying to squeeze it in.
9. Make Sure People Around You Know What Your Goals Are
- You will be more motivated to reach your goals if the people around you know what you are trying to do.
- Look forward to their complements and comments when you complete your goals. If there are any naysayers, keep them in mind and prove them wrong.

Diet and Weight Loss Tips
Weight Loss Information and Tips for Getting Started
Calories per Hour offers the following tips to help you lose weight to look better, feel better, and live a healthier life. These tips are short and sweet and are intended as a starting point or quick reference for individuals seeking to lose weight by using the resources offered on Calories per Hour. Read the related tutorial topics to learn more about the topics discussed in these weight loss tipsIt can be extremely tricky to loose that stubborn belly fat that you've had for months or maybe years, these tips and this training programme can get you where you want to be and with very effort required...try it here
- How Did I Get Here?Do you simply need help learning how to eat better? Probably. But if you eat poorly as a result of emotional, mental, or spiritual problems, they may have to be addressed before you can make any real progress with weight loss.Even people who don't feel they have an eating disorder often turn to food for comfort. To learn to eat well and exercise regularly, you may also have to learn to handle the problems life throws at you without turning away from healthy eating and exercise. Be particularly careful about all-or-nothing thinking. A common tendency when failing to stay on a diet is to abandon it altogether. Instead, try to learn from your mistakes and do better in the future.Related Tutorial Topic: Eating disorders.
- Are You Ready to Diet? Again?Diets entice us with promises of quick weight loss. But focusing on quick weight loss can lead to unhealthy eating and only short term success.While most diets produce quick weight loss at the outset, they often cause your metabolism to slow. The result is that you have to eat less and less to keep losing weight. You quickly become discouraged, give up, and start eating like you used to. But now, with a slower metabolism, you regain all the weight you lost, and more.Focus instead on improving your health, and you will become slim and healthy.Related Tutorial Topic: selecting a diet plan.
- Take Control of What You EatThere are few things that we have complete control over, but what we put in our mouths is one of them. We don't have to lose control in a restaurant or a friend's home, and we don't have to eat everything that's put in front of us.Consider this: We love fat because it carries flavor, and restaurants aren't as interested in whether we'll be around in 30 years as whether we'll be back next week. And what about our friends?
- Eat Frequently, and Eat SlowlyIt is important to understand what happens when you skip a meal or go on a crash diet. When you skip a meal your metabolism slows to conserve your energy. And when you lose weight too quickly for a few days, your body thinks it is threatened with starvation and goes into survival mode. It fights to conserve your fat stores, and any weight loss comes mostly from water and muscle.Never skip a meal, especially breakfast, and eat healthy snacks between meals. Eating frequently prevents hunger pangs and the binges that follow, provides consistent energy, and may be the single most effective way to maintain metabolism efficiency.Eating slowly gives our bodies time to tell us they are full before we've eaten more than we need.
- Eat More Fruits, Vegetables and Whole GrainsPeople who eat healthy, mostly unprocessed foods, including fruit, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, and limited amounts of lean animal protein, often find that they can eat as much as they want without gaining weight. If they are switching from a diet containing lots of processed foods, they find that they can eat more yet consume fewer calories -- and they lose weight.Historically, the Chinese ate mostly rice and vegetables with a little lean meat for protein and flavor, nothing like the American Chinese restaurant dishes of deep fried sweet and sour pork. A step back to more natural foods would improve our health and waistlines and therefore...burn the fat!
- Eat More FiberFiber makes us feel full sooner and stays in our stomach longer than other substances we eat, slowing down our rate of digestion and keeping us feeling full longer. Due to its greater fiber content, a single serving of whole grain bread can be more filling than two servings of white bread. Fiber also moves fat through our digestive system faster so that less of it is absorbed.Refined grains like white rice and those used to make white bread and sugary breakfast cereals have had most of their fiber and nutrients stripped away. They turn into blood sugar (glucose) so fast that, like sugar itself, they can cause a spike in our insulin level. This tells our body that plenty of energy is readily available and that it should stop burning fat and start storing it.Eating foods with plenty of fiber will help keep our blood sugar at a more consistent level.
- Cut Down on SugarBe careful about sugar in coffee and soda pop. It can add up quickly, and these drinks aren't filling.Watch for "hidden" sugar in processed foods like bread, ketchup, salad dressing, canned fruit, applesauce, peanut butter, and soups. And be careful with "fat-free" products. Sugar is often used to replace the flavor that is lost when the fat is removed. Fat-free does not mean calorie-free.The greater concern with the insulin spike (above) is not that it tells our body to start storing fat. Whatever we eat and don't burn up eventually gets turned into fat anyway.The greater concern is that the insulin spike is followed by a drop in insulin level that leaves us feeling tired and hungry and wanting to eat more. The unfortunate result of this scenario is that it makes us want to eat something else with a high sugar content. When we do, we start the cycle all over again.Regulating your blood sugar level is the most effective way to maintain your fat-burning capacity.
- Too Much of a Bad ThingFoods like cheese stand out as among the most fat-laden, with a great number of calories coming from fat. But as important as it is to select the healthiest foods, it is also important to consider how they are prepared.Fried foods, especially deep-fried, contain a great amount of fat. While chicken and fish are usually leaner than beef or pork, they can contain more fat when they are fried. Look at how the number of grams of fat in a chicken breast changes depending on how it is cooked:
Cooking Method Fat Meat Only, Roasted 3.1 Meat Only, Fried 4.1 Meat and Skin, Batter Fried 18.5
- Too Little of a Good ThingBut don't try to eliminate fat altogether, as dietary fat is necessary to maintain a healthy body It is a vital component for building body tissue and cells, and it aids in the absorption of some vitamins and other nutrients. Many people eat too much of the bad fats, but also eat too little of the good fats required for optimal health.
- Exercise RegularlyPeople who exercise regularly not only lose weight faster, they are more successful at keeping it off. Exercise makes it possible to create a calorie deficit and lose weight without starving your body and slowing your metabolism. At home, at the gym, or playing sports, participate in both aerobic and strength building activities on a regular basis. Not only does the exercise itself burn calories, but your body will continue to burn calories at a higher rate even after you're done exercising.If walking is all you can do, then walk because it's great for you. But muscle burns more calories than fat, so put on a little muscle if you can and you will burn more calories just sitting there... looking good.But don't sit too long. The human body is good at adapting. If you dig ditches without gloves, you will develop calluses to protect your hands. If you sit too long, you will develop extra padding to keep you comfortable!
- Take It EasyUnless you are excited to be following a very specific diet and exercise plan, do not try and change too much too fast. If you have been eating poorly and not exercising, both your body and your mind will have a lot of adjusting to do.All the sugar and fat were actually quite enjoyable, and sitting on the couch didn't feel too bad, either. If you try and change everything too quickly the odds are greater that you will feel bad, get discouraged, and give up. So be patient.A time will come when a healthy snack will taste as good as the junk food you felt bad about eating, and you will look forward to your regular exercise.
- Begin NowYou can achieve your goals, but it won't likely happen as a result of the next fad diet. Or the one after that.Learning to eat well and exercise is the only solution to long term weight loss.

The 3-day diet!
Are you in a hurry to loose weight?
Do you need a loose some weight to head you in the right direction to a healthier future?...
The 3 Day Diet is one of the most popular short-term fad diets around today. Many people adopt the diet to try and achieve short-term weight loss. However, unfortunately most people simply gain the weight back on again once they resume normal eating patterns.
The 3 Day Diet is simply a low calorie diet (as can be seen by the meal plan).
There is nothing magical – no mystical chemical reaction that goes on (as some seem to think). Weight loss is due to a sudden drop in calories – some of this may be fat – but most will be from water loss.
However... the 3-day diet is NOT sustainable, eating like this for more than 3-days can lead to a yo-yo diet effect, a constant regain of weight.

Washboard stomach, made easy peasy!
Want washboard abs? It's easier to achieve than you think!
Tips on how to get that perfect flat tummy you can be proud of.
1. Forget sit-ups
Doing thousands of crunches does not guarantee you better results. To burn fat on your stomach, you must first burn fat from your whole body, which means getting your heart pumping with some cardiovascular exercise. It’s no good having washboard abs if they're covered by body fat. Time for the treadmill!
2. Rest
Skipping a session is no disaster. If you have to miss a day or two, that's ok. Muscle does not turn to fat. Obviously too long a break can be detrimental but so can pushing yourself to the limit every single day. The rest phase is actually when the body strengthens and repairs itself. Continuous training can make you weaker; remember slow and steady wins the race!
3. Stand up straight
Lousy posture can be a key factor in making your stomach look much fatter than it actually is. Stand to your full height and try not to slouch; with a straight back and chest high the abs will naturally pull themselves in.
4. Train your entire core
You will never achieve your six pack goal if you don’t properly train your entire core. This means your obliques, lower back, pelvis, glutes and hip flexors. A strong core will mean better balance and stability; weak core muscles leave you susceptible to poor posture, lower back pain and muscle injuries.
5. You are what you eat
Your diet is your essential tool in building a lean and mean physique. The optimal meal frequency is 4- to-6 small meals every day; this will have the effect of speeding up your metabolism. Along with eating frequent, smaller meals, you should consume your carbohydrates first thing in the morning to give you energy through the day.
6. Challenge your muscles
It’s important to keep your workout routine fresh, repeating the same standard practices will not only bore you rigid but have a negative effect on your muscle gains. If you notice a slow down in your progression it’s because you have hit a plateau, your abs will eventually stop responding to the same old exercises because simply, they're bored. Muscles need a challenge; to keep them growing try overhauling your routine every four to six weeks.
Sticking with these six simple steps will ensure tighter, stronger and more defined abs. For extra help in the quest for the cheese-grater stomach Pro-10 offer a range of supplements that speed up your gains, be it burning fat or gaining muscle.
An easy training programme to get you where you want to be.. and get a perfectly flat stomach.
