8. Eating ice cream can actually help you burn an enormous amount of calories. The key to this lies in its temperature.

Ice cream is very cold. When you eat ice cream, your body must expend energy (a.k.a. calories) to warm it up to your internal body temperature.

When you work throughrepparttar 118295 scientific formulas for heat conversion, you can see you will end up expending approximately 6,000 calories to heat up a small dish of ice cream to body temperature. Drinking ice cold beer with your ice cream amplifies this effect.

These diet tips should have you well on your way towards effectively peeling off pounds of unsightly fat.

Think of me next time you’re eating a pizza with french fries and ketchup on top, dunking your donuts in a glass of cold beer, and shoving down Twinkies (withrepparttar 118296 filling sucked out) mashed into a dish of nice cold ice cream!

Rush-Hour Bench Press - This exercise is done onrepparttar 118292 vertical seated chest press machine that has a foot pedal to help raiserepparttar 118293 weight torepparttar 118294 starting position.

Your footwork will resemble that of someone in rush-hour traffic going from 0 to 60 to 0 every 3 seconds.

9. Close-Grip, Behind-The-Neck Shoulder Press - Sit in a shoulder press station, grippingrepparttar 118297 bar overhead with about 6 inches between your hands. Bringrepparttar 118298 bar down directly behind your head.

10. C.P.R. Bench Press - Start by loading your safe maximum bench press weight ontorepparttar 118299 bar. Now add 20 more pounds just to be safer.
