WANT TO START LOSING WEIGHT AND BURNING FAT TODAY? (Do this)

It's Thirsty Thursday "IF YOU FIGHT FOR YOUR LIMITATIONSYOU GET TO KEEP THEM....."   I have been thinking about this quote for so long....   It means so many things...for me at least...   But lately I hear it more and more...   I was at a Unleash the Power Within with Tony Robbins a few years ago (the 1st time I went) and he said   “We can change our lives. We can do, have, and be exactly what we wish.” – Tony Robbins What we tell ourselves is what we believe. We often limit ourselves by deciding we can’t do something before we even try. When we tell ourselves the answer is “no” before we ask the question, we’ve stopped our growth and our path to success. Our story affects what we do, where we go and how we approach life. A powerful story leads to a life of opportunity— change your story, change your life. The first step in changing our story is to stop telling ourselves disempowering ones How many times have you told yourself one of these? I can't lose weight I can't get in shape No matter what I do I can't lose weight I have tried everything I have done everything I workout all the time I workout everyday I never take days off I don't have time to workout I don't have time to eat I've been following my diet everyday and nothing yet  "IF YOU FIGHT FOR YOUR LIMITATIONSYOU GET TO KEEP THEM....." If you keep telling yourself the same story, nothing will change Part of the reason you may not be able to lose weight or stay on you diet is because you have told yourself that story for so long you believe it. I have been talking to so many people lately and you would not believe how many times someone sends me their weight or comes to the gym to weigh in...and after seeing that they have lost a pound or 2 lbs or 5lbs...the next thing they say is "Why haven't I lost any weight?" "Why isn't this working?" So I always wonder....are the people saying this just so used to saying that, that they don't even notice the results? or We're they expecting a larger amount and equate not reaching that amount to it not working? I don't know....but what I do know is that to many people are not looking at THE FACTS....and are NOT LIVING IN THE TRUTH Change your thoughts, change your life Want that diet to work...stop saying it won't Want the results from the workouts...show up and go all in Want to burn fat and get the results you see others getting, put in the same amount of effort and time If you lose a pound you in FACT lost weight....PERIOD. I'll say it again..."IF YOU FIGHT FOR YOUR LIMITATIONSYOU GET TO KEEP THEM" If this made sense to you...let me know If it didn't make any sense...let me know Coach Rafael PS...Remember that client I told you about 10 days ago? I said  I just started working with a female client that was weighing 180lbs. She will be competing in the WBFF Bikini Category in June...I think she will step on stage at around 150lbs and very lean....   177 this morning, right on track....   For those of you thinking, you can't get results like that...I invite you to watch how I create the process for her to follow and hit that goal by June 15th...   Will you be reaching your goal this Summer? Want a similar results? Just reach out...I'm here to help

CELLULITE: Can it be fixed?

The Most Important POST About Cellulite You Will Ever Read...Make Sure You Share With A Friend

Happy Hump Day HUMP DAY....Haha...Get it???   So this is the question so many people ask but don't want the answer to   Two of the toughest questions my clients and email readers ask me are: 1) What can I do with loose skin?; and 2) How can I get rid of cellulite?    BUT while so many people ask.....Most of you don't really want the answer.   Last year, when Lais said she wanted to compete in a fitness competition and be judged on stage in a bikini on the way she looked CELLULITE was definitely a concern.   Look at these pictures from her journey... the 1st picture was December 2017...the 2nd picture where you can really see the cellulite was in March 2nd 2018 a few weeks after dieting the way I wanted her all the time....at this point MOST OF YOU READING THIS THAT WANT TO GET RID OF YOUR CELLULITE WOULD HAVE QUIT OR FIRED ME...   Let me repeat...look at the 2nd picture...if I delivered these results after 6 weeks of following my instructions...most of you would be pi$$ed at me, quit, cried, and certainly fired me...because I have no idea what I'm doing   Then you would have jumped to the next thing....   Lais didn't really have a choice...she had to trust, she had to follow the instructions and trust the process...   Had to keep her fears doubts and insecurities away...every BAD piece of information she had ever heard about cellulite wanted to come out..   Carbs, Sugar, Rice, Eating Late, Cardio, Fat, Creams and Teas, Lotions and Potions...all things she had tried with no success but wanted to go for it again.   Like most of you...how much money and time have you spent on things that don't work and yet you keep trying them? She wanted to go back to all that useless stuff   But she had to do this...she announced she would step on stage, she had people following her journey (some secretly hoping she would fail, so they could say "I knew it") and not a good argument to combat what I was saying...   I actually have a lot of woman on our Team right now that are competing in June in the same show she did last year, with the same fears and concerns she had at this point...   And to them and to all of you reading...I say...look at picture #2 again and then just look at picture #3..June 16th 2018...   CELLULITE GONE...   And on stage with bright lights shining on it...Gone...   No Fat Removal Creams or Teas, Lotions or Potions no long hours of cardio, no strict dieting...as a matter of fact we had Mexican take out and Chinese food the night before she competed   March April May and 1/2 of June ...but she did everything, lots of food, showed up to our classes, and was consistent no matter what   and then we kept going and picture #4 glute and legs are even tighter   So let me tell you what most of you do   Creams that are anti cellulite $20-$200 (they don't work, you still buy them)   Cellulite Treatment like VelaShape™ and VelaSmooth™ costs depend on the size of the treatment area. In general, patients pay anywhere from $500 to $3,000. The cost of a single VelaShape™ may be priced higher than the cost of a single VelaSmooth™ treatment.   Venus Freeze is offered as a package of eight 60-minute treatments for $2,500, treating 2 large areas. If additional areas need to be added for more time, those can be priced during a consultation.   So let's BE SMART for 1 minute   The problem is, most women don’t really know what “cellulite” is, or what causes it. So if you don’t know what cellulite is, how can you get rid of it? Fact is, the word "cellulite" is an adjective. A word made up in the late 60's, in a French salon to describe this problematic appearance on women's lower bodies. It's actually caused by muscular atrophy, which occurs when the layers of muscle UNDER the skin become weak, deflated and untoned.   It has nothing to do with your skin, and NOTHING to do with weight loss. Because even the skinniest of women can suffer from "cellulite".   1. You CANNOT get rid of cellulite with creams or lotions: So, stop using them. It’s that simple. There are dozens of cellulite reduction creams on the market, but they don’t do anything to treat your cellulite. The dimples caused by cellulite are a superficial result of a problem below the surface of your skin, therefore creams will do nothing. 2. Medi-Spa Treatments do not work: Numerous FDA reports show that medi-spa treatments have actually scarred and injured a number of women permanently. From body-wrapping to endermologie, these treatments are completely ineffective, but can be very expensive and dangerous. 3. Cellulite is NOT genetic: Ignore what you’ve been told, because celluliteis not genetic and you are not stuck with it forever. Believing this just prevents you from taking the simple steps in this video to get rid of your cellulite.     AND HERE WE ARE HAVING TO ADMIT THAT MOST OF YOU WOULD RATHER PAY A COUPLE THOUSAND $$$ TO FREEZE OR WHAT EVER PRODUCT THAT DOESN'T WORK AND WILL STILL TAKE TIME....   Than to actually fix the problem...   Yes you have to exercise, yes you have to eat right and no you don't know...   So many people lately saying things like "I know how to eat right"....   Sorry...you don't...   I know where my heart is and I understand what it's job is...but I would not try to operate on it....   Let's not say things that are not true, just because we don't know what else to say   BUT THERE IS A SOLUTION.....JUST LIKE LAIS...YOU TO CAN FOLLOW THE ADVICE SHE GOT....HAVE A MEAL PLAN DESIGNED FOR YOU...YOU CAN WORKOUT WHERE SHE WORKED OUT AND HAVE ACCESS TO HER COACH.....   And just Like her you will be scared, want to quit, think it's not working and even be angry with her coach....   And Just Like Lais, by he time June is here...This Summer...You can be rid of it ..all you would have to do is follow instructions and be consistent...   PS...during that time Lais had parties, ate out, went to Disney, had funnel cake...etc etc...she was not eating boiled chicken and asparagus at every meal   Tomorrow is the LAST day of Feb....Friday is the 1st Day of March...if you would like to work with her Coach and get started on the path to getting rid of cellulite or know someone who might need this...   Let me know, send them this email...I can connect you with the person that helped her...if you see her at the gym and want to talk to her about it...go for it   I WISH YOU ALL A HAPPY HUMP DAY...Now that you know better, you should do better   Coach Rafael   PS....this is a real offer...if you are interested in working with her Coach to help you get rid of the cellulite problem or any other problem body part, using crazy things like real food and exercise...and you want more info just reply...so I can connect you...Coaching for this kind of program is ongoing and her Coach can take on some more people, but not many...only so many hours in the day
