Over many years and after training and counseling hundreds of people on nutrition, diet and workout programs we’ve learned that everyone wants one of two things.

We don’t mean to over simplify this but each time a new client came to us we asked them what it is they wanted to achieve. Overwhelmingly men wanted to gain muscle quickly. Women wanted to lose fat just as fast.  More specifically they wanted to be “thin”.

The interesting thing is that we put them on pretty much the same diet in terms of ratios and similar workout programs adjusted for individual goals. In the end they both got what they had wanted. The men quickly gained muscle and the women lost fat (weight).  Actually they both were losing fat and gaining muscle at the same time but sometimes it’s best to keep the details secret and let the results do the work. There’s a reason for this.

Men often come in and want to gain overall weight. They want to be bigger and stronger so the mere mention of their scale weight coming down could sap motivation. Again, we let the results take care of the motivation.

Women, on the other hand, typically are not interested in gaining muscle. There is a perception that they will begin to look too big or masculine so the desire to look “thin” is more desirable. Again, we use results for motivation and in the end they’ve gained muscle, lost fat and look fantastic.

Now that we know where most people come from when approaching a weight loss or muscle gain program we can get started with how to achieve these goals…quickly! Remember, it’s not who trains the hardest but the smartest. Here’s what you need to do:

Diet: A weight (fat) loss diet is the same as a muscle gain diet and yes…you can absolutely gain muscle while losing fat. This diet really isn’t a diet either. Mention the word “diet” and most people automatically go to this mindset that they’ll be eating dry tasteless food for a period of 6-8 weeks. This isn’t accurate at all.

Diet and weight loss plans, muscle gain programs and even eating plans for people with diabetes have really come a long way. Now the food tastes great (for some programs) and even the supplements are the best they’ve ever been. Did you ever think you’d be able to eat ice cream and lose fat? Read on.

So the eating program isn’t that difficult. It consists of lean proteins, lots of healthy vegetables, and complex starches. Fat is in here too but only the healthy kind like evening primrose oil and caprylic triglycerides.

Many weight loss programs during the low carb diet craze convinced people they could eat as much fat as they wanted and still lose weight. People did indeed lose weight however, much of it was water and muscle, ultimately leading to even more weight gain as their metabolisms slowed down.  Remember when eating lots of fat you’re just going to have to burn it up later.  Do you really want to be on the stationary bike all day burning up all those excess calories?  We didn’t think so, there is nothing more boring even with music and a TV.

We’ve researched many weight loss and muscle gain programs on hundreds of people in Pasadena. We’ve also had clients come in seeking help after being unsuccessful on one or more programs from packaged meals that were shipped (how can that possibly taste good?) to liquid diets even to the extent that some would go in to a studio for shots.

There’s one program that has worked for all of our Pasadena clients over the years. It’s safe, effective and fast. Most important, it makes complete sense and is logical, something most programs and supplement companies have a problem with.

We began using the Parrillo eating program in 1988. At that time we used it primarily for amateur and collegiate athletes many from The Ohio State University and surrounding colleges. But it’s important to remember that you can easily cater the program to your lifestyle. You don’t have to be a bodybuilder or compete on a sports team to use Parrillo, it works for everyone and at any age. For these athletes it was very intense because they were looking to gain muscle fast while maintaining speed and other aspects of strength. It obviously worked well for them too and that’s why many athtletes over the years have turned to Parrillo for advice and supplements.

Exercise: After diet comes exercise. There is a wide range of exercise you can do because everyone has different goals and is at a different level. Parrillo has always specialized in helping athletes at the highest level but those same techniques have been adjusted and are just as successful on everyday people looking to put on muscle and lose fat. We had tremendous success with Moms looking to lose their baby weight, Dads wanting to get in shape again and even people with diabetes.

A very good start to any program would be to read the Parrillo Sports Nutrition Guide. It can be a bit technical for some so an alternative would be to browse the Q&A section. This will provide you with a very good idea of how the program works.

Supplements: For over 20 years we have tested every brand of supplement imaginable either directly or through a variety of case studies and focus groups. We also owned a diabetic food company for 9 years where we had the opportunity to really test blood sugar results. When working with people who have diabetes there is no room for error in labeling.

In all of that time, we only had one company consistently say that food came first and supplements second. It also was the only program that worked for everyone.

Supplements do come second to a good nutrition program, but there are a few that will be a perfect start for anyone.

Protein is a big part of the diet. It’s difficult to consume enough protein in food alone so a high quality protein powder is recommended to supplement.

We also recommend essential vitamins and minerals, which should be taken with meals throughout the day. In the Summer it’s of particular importance to maintain your electrolyte balance. Recently in Southern California temperatures have reached 115 degrees in some areas. If you are dehydrated and your electrolytes are out of balance you can easily tear a muscle or get cramps.

Muscle aminos are comprised of the three major amino acids your muscles need to grow. It’s a supplement that we’ve used consistently with our clients to great success, particularly during intense cardiovascular exercise.

If you are looking to gain muscle fast or lose fat just as fast we suggest the Parrillo program and supplements. It is the only company we know 100% for sure that you will not only get results but also that the products are the quality advertised. And if you’ve forgotten about the ice cream we mentioned you’d be able to eat on this program you won’t have to wait much longer. Our sources tell us it’s coming soon.
