Hi BodyRockers, Today Freddy and I are starting to pack for our move and we are crazy busy. With everything that we have to do today, I didn’t have time for a full workout, but don’t worry because I put together this savage little 6 minute full body routine that will rock you out. I think that it is always better to do something than to skip your training completely, and this workout may come in a small package, but as you can see in the video, if you are pushing it at your max effort – full throttle – you won’t have anything left after 6 minutes. This is a perfect solution if you find yourself really busy and pressed for time – and you can also extend the torture by doing this 2 times back to back. As I said tho, the real test of your effort is that by the end of the 6 minutes you should be tapped out.

Why women think they are fat: brain 'thinks body is two thirds bigger than it is' - Health & Beauty, Lifestyle
Heidi Blake – 15 June 2010 10:23 AM Scientists have discovered that the body image a person projects in their own brain is “massively distorted” and can be up to two thirds wider than it is in reality. The brain’s own “body model” is also around a third shorter than the body actually is, according to the study at University College London.
How To Lose Belly Fat Fast For Teenagers
First, some facts about teen girls and belly fat. The normal, or healthy, percentage of body fat actually increases for girls as they enter their teens. So it's not unusual for a previously angular or "boyish" figure to become more rounded. It's also not unusual for girls to "thicken" a little in their middles prior to growth spurts. Think of it as a piece of elastic getting thinner as it gets longer. Finally, if a teen girl is carrying too much fat, one month isn't much time to take it off, as the recommended healthy weight-loss rate is between 1 and 2 pounds per week.
Scientists capture the first image of memories being made
The ability to learn and to establish new memories is essential to our daily existence and identity; enabling us to navigate through the world. A new study by researchers at the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital (The Neuro), McGill University and University of California, Los Angeles has captured an image for the first time of a mechanism, specifically protein translation, which underlies long-term memory formation. The finding provides the first visual evidence that when a new memory is formed new proteins are made locally at the synapse - the connection between nerve cells - increasing the strength of the synaptic connection and reinforcing the memory. The study published in Science, is important for understanding how memory traces are created and the ability to monitor it in real time will allow a detailed understanding of how memories are formed.

The Best Way To Burn Belly Fat
The best type of exercise to burn unhealthy belly fat is aerobic exercise, according to a new study. The results showed that people who did aerobics for eight months lost about 2.5 square inches of belly fat, as measured on a CT scan. That's about 1.5 times as much as people who did a combination of aerobic exercise and weight lifting, and about 20 times as much as those who only lifted weights. "Resistance training is great for improving strength and increasing lean body mass," said study researcher Cris Slentz, an exercise physiologist at Duke University. But aerobic exercise is better for losing belly fat because it burns more calories, he said. The study found that people who did both aerobic exercise and resistance training did not see further improvements to their health — in terms of liver fat, insulin resistance and other measures — beyond those who did only aerobic exercise.
