The start - where are you now?
Everyone has to start somewhere. Over the years, I’ve helped thousands of people go from
Red Zone to Green Zone bodies. Identifying your individual starting place is an important
part of making your journey happen. |

Myths and Discoveries
When people go from Green Zone towards Red Zone bodies, there are two things that
happen, but we only notice one of them. That’s the accumulation of fat, which is stored on
the outside of our bodies. That’s why the SHAPE of our body changes. What’s NOT seen is
that the ‘metabolic engine’ of bones and muscles becomes relatively smaller and much less
active. Think of this like the engine of your car - the only part of the car that uses fuel. The
larger your metabolic engine of your body is, the less fuel stored as fat. A weight scale
CANNOT tell the difference between your healthy ‘engine’ and the storage tank of fat. The
denser and more active your metabolic engine is, the more your body shape improves. |

Activity – What kind, how much & How often
‘Cardio’ or Aerobic activities - Changing body shape requires building the ‘metabolic engine’
of bones and muscles in your body. Activities that get all of your body in motion at once work
best. Examples are walking, biking, dancing, hiking, jogging and lots of others. You need to
accumulate [not necessarily all at once] 60 minutes a day.
Weight Training can be a great adjunct to ‘cardio’. Keep it simple and totally effective by
doing ‘The Magic 8’. |

Supplements that work – and don’t
Some supplements have been shown to be helpful in reducing body fatness and improving
the ‘metabolic engine’ of bones and muscles. Many are a complete waste of your hard
earned money. See the supplement index for review and comment. |

Medications that help
No medicine will ever be a substitute for the other elements of the GREEN LIGHT Program,
but the medications listed have been studied and have been released for medical
prescription. Obviously, the appropriateness of using any medication is a matter to be
discussed with your physician. |

Surgery
For those suffering from severe obesity, gastric bypass or ‘banding’ procedures can
substantially improve quality of life. However, metabolic abnormalities tend to return over
time and maintaining adequate nutrition is often difficult. |

Coaching for Success
Over the last 25 years, I’ve found that the right kind of coaching is often critical. After all, the
very best athletes in the world have coaches to help them do what they are already the best
at. There’s so much involved with building a new body, so isn’t it reasonable that you could
use a coach? This is a place to go to review, ask questions, talk with others who share your
concerns and to get video, podcasts and other useful tools to help on your journey. |
