PB2: The Ultimate Dieters Dream
By: Kevin Larrabee, CSCS I am a peanut butter addict. During the Destination Abs Project I had one particular craving. A craving, dare I say need for peanut butter. The problem is that on such a low calorie diet I couldn’t dip my finger into the jar and satisfy my craving. Then, Leigh Peele along with a bunch of followers on Twitter mentioned PB2 as an alternative to peanut butter. I had used PB2 in the past, but not in about two years. PB2 is basically what remains after... Read More
Destination Abs: Week 4 (End of Phase One)
By: Kevin Larrabee, CSCS Whew…There goes four weeks of intense fat-loss. This was easily the most drastic transformation my body has made since I dropped the initial 35 pounds when I was in high school. Was it as big of a number in terms of pounds? No. But the transformation in the mirror was pretty major. Wow, I can’t believe I made it four weeks. I think the biggest supporting factor was posting on TheFitCast.com each week and receiving comments from you and having... Read More

Too Fat To Work? Want Free Money? THIS IS SAD…
By: Kevin Larrabee, CSCS This is another news story that I just had to blog about. It is not funny, it isn’t cool new research about a life saving product or a new way to exercise that causes our body to lose fat faster. It is about a family in the United Kingdom that is mad about the compensation they are getting from the government while being out of work. Why are they out of work? It’s not because they slipped on ice and hurt their backs or because they all have... Read More
Poor Tracy Anderson…
By: Kevin Larrabee, CSCS Uh-oh. Looks like Tracy Anderson’s new gym is in some trouble. As we mentioned before, Anderson and actress/clients Gwyneth Paltrow decided to go into the gym business and bring Anderson’s two hours/6-day a week workouts to the public. Well, it looks like things aren’t going so well for the new venture. The Huffington Post reported that the gym is have trouble obtaining members. It seems like the main reason is the price. The “spy”... Read More
Top 5: Trader Joe’s Products
By: Kevin Larrabee, CSCS Why I Shop at Trader Joe’s Last week I was reminded by podcast listener and online client Tim that I never wrote that Trader Joe’s Top 5 article that was promised months ago. Well, here it is. I talk about Trader Joe’s on the FitCast, a lot. I do about 80% of my grocery shopping there every week. I recommend all of my clients do the majority of their shopping there as well? Why? Because they have the highest quality organic products... Read More

Top 5 Fruits
Fresh or Frozen, Local, Seasonal and Organic are best choices. By: Brian St. Pierre, CSCS, CISSN This article was one of the most difficult of the series. Only Top 5 vegetables was probably a harder list. There are a ton of really healthy fruits that I just had to cut. Needless to say, there are probably lots of fruits that depending on the day I might switch in with something on this list. On this particular day, this is what I decided. 1. Wild Mixed Berries – (blue, rasp,... Read More
Fat Loss Troubleshooting: Kevin Larrabee (Week 2)
By: Kevin Larrabee, CSCS Two weeks down folks. Two long weeks. Things are getting easier though. I am in a rhythm, figuring out how much food equals 1550 calories is pretty easy. To be honest, I almost eat the same exact stuff every single day. It’s easier and all of the food tastes amazing when it enters my mouth for consumption. 50% salted almonds from Trader Joe’s taste like M&Ms. Again, Leigh Peele has put together the nutrition portion of this program and...
