Sure, you might feel stronger by packing on a few more plates, but if you’re stopping a few inches shy of completing each move, you’re cheating your muscles—and that’s going to cost you better results.

It’s no secret that the biggest fat burning muscles in your body are your legs. They are the largest muscles in your body and therefore require the most amount of energy when used.

I recently got a email from one of our MAX Workout Club members (Thanks Tony!) about a tool he uses to keep track of his calories. I know… counting calories… who has the time right? But the truth is it’s necessary if you’re serious about losing weight. It’s sort of like keeping a food journal—once you get started it’s actually not that bad.
