Thinking About Buying Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle? WAIT! Find OutWhat You're Getting Yourself Into BEFORE You Buy

Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle makes some outrageousclaims, has a bunch of larger-than-life testimonials, andcosts more than your average hardcover book. Whenscrolling through the (very long) official website, your mindwill be racing with questions wondering if it’s a scam or alegitimate program, because you have to admit, the concept behind the program is very intriguing.It’s getting harder every day to distinguish the legitimate fatloss programs from the ones that are nothing but scams,so…

Before you decide to purchase Burn The Fat, Feed TheMuscle, let’s put it to the test.

First, the author, Tom Venuto has been featured on hundreds of websites as well as inmagazines such as Natural Bodybuilding & Fitness, Ironman, Men’s Exercise and Men’sFitness. Tom is also the author of a hardcover national best-seller, The Body Fat Solution(Penguin/Avery books). There was even a blurb about his latest book in Oprah Magazine.Venuto is a bodybuilder – in fact, his whole system is based on “fat-burning secrets of bodybuilders and fitness models.” Looking at his pictures, you can see that he is beyondgood shape, the guy is jacked and six-packed. You’d be tempted to scream “Steroids”except that Venuto says he’s lifetime natural and has competed in drug-testedcompetitions for more than 20 years.After a little more research, you’ll find that Burn The Fat was released in 2002 and wasthe #1 e-book best-seller for 4 years in a row. Most Internet weight loss programs haven’teven been around that long, let alone topped the charts that long. Also, New York City publishers and major magazines like Men’s Fitness don’t give the time of day to fly-by-night Internet marketers, so there’s some credibility.

But the real question is, does the program actually work?

The claim made by Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle is that bodybuilders and fitnessmodels are the leanest athletes in the world. Venuto himself was 3.7% body fat at one point (note: on the day of a contest). Therefore, says Venuto, if you find out how bodybuilding, fitness and figure competitors get so lean and you do the same thing, youwill get the same results. It makes sense. However, there’s no magic solution here.From reading Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle, you learn that you won’t get 6-pack abs or a body like a fitness model by training a few minutes a day and eating junk. You learn

that to get lean you have to change your lifestyle and adopt new habits to replace the oldones that made you fat. You learn that to get “ripped” it takes an even more regimentednutrition program.When looking at the Burn The Fat website, you’ll see a home page plastered withtestimonials from people of all ages. Since it’s impossible to be sure thesetestimonials/people are real, a little outside research is in order. What you’ll find on a websearch is a free discussion forum called the Burn The Fat Facebook group, which hasseveral thousand members who support each other to implement the program. You’ll alsofind several Burn The Fat Yahoo groups. There is also a paid online support community(sponsored by Venuto), called the Burn The Fat Inner Circle, with thousands of membersusing the Burn The Fat system. Membership to this site is optional and doesn’t come withthe e-book.With a little more online research, it’s easy to find positive reviews and before and after photos of people who have successful used Burn The Fat to lose weight. You’ll also findsome YouTube videos and blogs devoted to chronicling the training journals and nutrition programs of fat burners.It’s hard to dispute that Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle is one of the most established fatloss programs online. Not only is third party proof all over the Internet, this program has been around since 2002. A program just can’t survive that long on the web if there isn’tgood word of mouth. And of course, we know this method has worked for bodybuildersfor decades.

The final question then becomes, will it work for YOU?

Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle is a best seller and there’s proof that it works. But it will probably appeal the most to a certain kind of person. First, it takes effort and asignificant time investment. It trades focus, dedication and hard work to get significant, permanent and natural fat loss (as opposed to some rapid fat loss programs where you’rerequired to take drugs or supplements and where the weight is a lot more likely to come back).Another thing to know is that the main focus of the e-book is on nutrition, and it requirescounting calories and crunching numbers to create menu plans. There’s a lot of value inthat kind of precision, but this approach may not be for everyone. Some people prefer to just estimate portion sizes. Burn The Fat is probably ideal for people who need structure,enjoy planning and are detail-oriented (accountants, engineers, math buffs and other analytical types will be in seventh heaven). If you like to know WHY you’re doingsomething instead of just being told WHAT to do, you’ll appreciate the detail in the 300+ pages. It’s definitely thorough. Encyclopedic even.
