The Stubborn Fat Solution Book

As Lyle states himself, unless you are already on the edge of single figure bodyfat levels this book is not the one for you. It is aimed at those people that want and need to get down to "paper thin skin" for competitive bodybuilding shows or photo shoots etc. Probabally best if I hand over to Lyle from this point in.

About this Book (Words from the author)

The problem of stubborn body fat (typically the abdominals/low back for men and hips and thighs for women) is one that lean dieters have been trying to deal with for decades. Various simple explanations (typically involving estrogen) have been offered but the results from these simple approaches have been, at best, poor. This is a place where simple is simply wrong.

As it turns out, stubborn fat is stubborn for a number of inter-related physiological reasons, all of which conspire to make its elimination difficult (and for some, seemingly impossible). The Stubborn Fat Solution is the first book to scientifically examine the causes of stubborn body fat in extreme detail. From receptor type and number, blood flow, the propensity to both store and release fat, the physiology of stubborn fat is dissected in detail. The role of hormones and diet is also discussed.

Of course, all of the physiological verbiage is useless without solutions and The Stubborn Fat Solution provides those as well. The book describes four specific protocols aimed at optimally mobilizing and burning off stubborn fat.

While the protocols are primarily training based, the impact of diet on stubborn fat loss is also discussed and information on how best to incorporate the four protocols into your current training and diet program are examined. And while none are required, several beneficial supplements are also discussed.

Please note: Like The Ultimate Diet 2.0, The Stubborn Fat Solution is aimed at lean dieters trying to achieve extreme levels of leanness. Until men are 10-12% body fat and females are ~15-17% body fat, the information in this book is not necessary (although it will still be informative).

Excerpt from this book

The following is from Chapter 7: Why is Stubborn Fat Stubborn

So this chapter basically is the first punch line of the book, finally defining, physiologically, what makes stubborn fat so stubborn. And, rather than being any single hormone or factor, it's essentially a combination of issues including adrenoceptor number (which determines the sensitivity to lipolytic stimuli), blood flow, sensitivity to insulin, what type of fat is stored, and whether the fat cells are small and numerous or large and less numerous. Of those five factors, three are under our immediate control, the last two are not.

Additionally, there is the global fact of how the body adapts to long-term dieting. Reductions in metabolic rate, thyroid, leptin, nervous system output, etc. all make it harder to reduce fat mass in general, this just compounds the problems already associated with stubborn fat.

In any case, having identified what makes stubborn fat stubborn, we can (finally) set about figuring out how to overcome the problem. Clearly finding a way to overcome the issue of a high alpha- to beta-receptor ratio is a first key. Improving blood flow into and out of the cell is the second key. Avoiding issues with high insulin sensitivity (or simply a propensity to store fat in the first place) is the final key.

The magic bullet to get stubborn fat moving

Review submitted on 29th May 2010 by Pattie Farley

As a female contest bodybuilder I am always struggling to get that last bit of fluff off the hips and thighs. Stubborn Fat Protocol is the magic bullet to get it moving.

I have used Lyle’s protocol successfully for four bodybuilding shows and would never consider prepping for a contest without it.
