Foreword
by Kathy Smith
I m convinced that being overfat is one of the most serious problems our society faces. I ve worked with countless women over the years and I ve seen how it can destroy a person s health, undermine one s self-esteem, and drastically limit one s enjoyment and participation in all that life has to offer. And yet even after three decades in the fitness industry, it still surprises me how much confusion there is surrounding the best way to eat and exercise. This confusion is only made worse by the dizzying array of shortcuts and quick fixes out there and by the fact that most people just don t have the time or energy to sort out truth from fiction.
Here then to the rescue is Mackie Shilstone s The Fat-Burning Bible- one of the most comprehensive nutritional and exercise programs I ve ever encountered. This groundbreaking work is sure to be a powerful tool in the hands of anyone wanting to lose excess body fat while increasing his or her knowledge about this complex subject.
As the Ochsner Clinic Foundation s Performance Enhancement Expert, Mackie is well versed in the science of nutrition, fitness, and sports medicine. What s more, Mackie s metabolic prescriptions offered in this book are based upon his nearly thirty years of experience working with over three thousand top athletes and many thousands of ordinary women and men.
Mackie isn t kidding when he calls his book a bible -indeed, its scope and degree of detail are remarkable. While we ve all heard the standard one-liners on key topics like insulin resistance and cholesterol, Mackie s book explores the underlying science to give you the deeper story. From how to interpret your lipid profile to disease markers, HGH, whey proteins, and a long list of others-many of the topics covered are things I ve learned about and discussed with my own doctors. Still, I ve never seen them explained more clearly and accessibly than in this book. Through careful organization of the material, Mackie s explanations have the miraculous power to simultaneously provide more detail and a simplified understanding.
If you re like me, knowing the why behind the what is a key factor in staying motivated and developing consistency with a program. Consistency in turn is the key to success. The Fat-Burning Bible will take you as far as you want to go toward a thorough understanding of human physiology as it relates to weight loss-and it will show you how to use that knowledge to get results.
I ve spent my professional life sounding the call for lifestyle change. That s why it s such a pleasure to have another authoritative voice joining that call, especially one backed by such extensive research and armed with such practical solutions.
Obesity is becoming the number one disease in North America. The powerful exercise, nutritional, and stress-reducing strategies in this book are one sure step toward a cure.
Preface
I have always tried to be an innovator instead of simply copying others. In my health and fitness work I ve striven to be on the cutting edge as opposed to the cutting room floor. One of the things I learned when I got my MBA in business is that if you want to succeed you ve got to have a model. That s what I ve done in this book and in my two others, Lose Your Love Handles and Maximum Energy for Life, as I ve given readers a clear, easy-to-follow model of a good health and lifestyle program. In this book I provide understandable, tried-and-true strategies to either remain slim or to lose dangerous body fat. In this way, I am empowering you to avoid many of the diseases that are decimating the lives of literally millions of Americans.
Over the years, my work has been about stepping out boldly and using recognized, leading-edge health technologies to create success in my clients, whether they are world-class athletes or ordinary men and women from all walks of life. In 1985, I made history by helping Michael Spinks to be the first light heavyweight to become a heavyweight champion when he took the title from Larry Holmes. In March 2003, I used similar techniques to help Roy Jones Jr., the light heavyweight champion, to successfully defeat John Ruiz, the World Boxing Association heavyweight champion. Once again, we did the impossible. And, I might add, in twenty years no one else has duplicated these efforts.
The exercise and nutritional models presented in this book work. They have enabled athletes to extend their careers far beyond the norm. They have allowed men and women suffering from morbid obesity and life-threatening diseases to extend their lives. This program has given thousands of people a quality of life, health, and performance far beyond their wildest expectations.
The Next Wave of Disease Management
For years you have been reading about the three most prevalent diseases in the United States: heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and cancer. And for twenty-seven years I have been writing about and treating these deadly illnesses. While planning this book I asked myself, What common link do all of these diseases have? The answer is easy: they are most likely to develop when we put on excess fat with age.
In Maximum Energy for Life, cardiologist Chip Lavie made the startling statement that 95 percent of all heart disease is preventable. We gave you the facts and the program to prove it. In this book I am taking this concept one step further. I believe that obesity should be named the number one preventable disease in this country, because almost all major health problems have overweight or obesity at their core. Obesity is responsible for a whole constellation of problems generally known as heart disease: high cholesterol, hypertension, heart attack, and stroke
