Ugly Does Cardio, Hot Does Lifting.

I read this on Leigh Peele's blog, and I HAD to ask her if I could share the awesomeness with you.  I totally love the way that Leigh puts things. -Josh

This might be the 100th time you have heard this or it may be your 1st. Here is something you may not have heard before…

Ugly does cardio, hot does lifting.

That may seem a bold statement but let’s be clear for a moment on my intent.

• No lifting leads to ugly performance
• No lifting leads to ugly physique
• No lifting leads to ugly health
• Lifting leads to sexier bodies
• Lifting leads to hotter moves
• Lifting leads to a better well-being

excerpt from one of my [Leigh's] articles on Charles Staley’s website

There is an art to programing. There is an art to nutrition and training. Resistance training is in 100% of my programs. From actors to primary bodyweight conditioning. Resistance work is key. Never forget that or forget that I love it. There is a time and a place for all types of training. You don’t have to squat 2x bodyweight, but resistance work is key to it all. You just have to have the goods with program design.

Leigh is a wicked awesome fat loss trainer – she's one of my favorite trainers to read.  Some of the things she's talking about with nutrition are going to change the game forever. 

You totally have to watch the video she just did (scroll down the page a little) 'cause it'll blow your mind.
