Welcome to the Get Fit Guys quick and dirty tips to slim down and shape up.

My name is Ben Greenfield and I'm the Get Fit Guy.

You're probably familiar with American Ninja Warrior,

the heart racing and action-packed obstacle course competition series that seems to be taking the world by storm.

From school teachers to firemen to police officers to social workers, this competition gives

everyday men and women the chance to transform into fearless, acrobatic competitors,

a shot at a half-million dollar cash prize, and perhaps most relevant to you, the ability to do special

workouts and training that build a very impressive combination of a lean body, grip strength,

speed, explosiveness, flexibility, and balance. So how can you train like an American Ninja

Warrior? Well, in this episode, I'm going to give you six quick and dirty tips to two

course with speed, to move efficiently, and to be able to protect the body while flying through the air and hanging from bars on American Ninja Warrior course with speed to move efficiently and to be able to protect the

body while flying through the air and hanging from bars, an American Ninja Warrior needs to be light

on the feet. When I'm getting ready for an important competition myself, I combine as many of my

unconventional fat loss tips as possible. For example, I stop eating about two hours before bedtime. I get up in the morning

in a fasted state. I take a cold shower to jumpstart the metabolism. I drink some coffee. I do a 20 to 30

minute easy aerobic workout while still in a fasted state. I eat breakfast. I spend as much time

during the day on my feet standing at a standing workstation

or moving. And then later on in the day, I do something intense like weight training or high

intensity interval cardio training, followed by a final cold shower. Now that might seem a lot or

inconvenient, but if you want to get lean fast, doing things like that is a really good way to structure your day.
