are you physically fit . . ? no need pills to take . . . Three tips to build muscle and lose fat 1. Challenge your muscles with weight training. Research shows that muscle strength declines by 15 percent per decade after age 50, and 30 percent per decade after age 70. Combat these changes with a fitness plan that includes cardio and weights. If you do both on the same day, do weights first, followed by cardio. This ensures you’ll be at maximum strength for weights and will keep burning fat during cardio. 2. Amp up the lean protein in your diet. Protein is the building block of muscle and it’s essential for repair after workouts. When you’re trying to lose weight, eating more protein can offset the negative effects on muscle mass by maintaining more muscle relative to the amount of weight lost, says a study from the University of Illinois.

Relora is an herbal compound I use in my practice that has been found effective in keeping stress hormone levels balanced and reducing abdominal fat. see more . . . bit.ly/M8jW1t
