Final Phase Fat Loss was recently released to the paying public in February. The unique selling point of this fat loss program is that it targets specific hormones (cortisol, insulin, estrogen and leptin) that are keeping you from losing weight in specific areas of your body. Cortisol is responsible for abdominal fat. Insulin for weight gain in the back and love handles. Estrogen for butt and legs. And leptin for overall final fat resistance. Final Phase Fat Loss claims to be able to target these hormones using different workout methods.
John Romaniello, self proclaimed weight loss expert and creator of the Final Phase Fat Loss Program, has created four different training regiment that you do each week to target these hormones. The workouts are called density, dynamic, lactic-acid and strength. Even though each workout targets a specific hormone, Romaniello doesn’t recommend that individuals only do one form of training to target that hormone. Instead, he says, do all of them to aid in the process of losing those last few stubborn pounds.
Romaniello also discusses muscle confusion similar to the way P90X and Tony Horton promote muscle confusion. The four workouts are laid out differently each week to keep your body off balance. The difference is that with Final Phase Fat Loss you are using more resistance-based training.
Cardio is only done once a week and you perform HIIT or High Intensity Interval Training. The intervals are based on exertion and are all over the place. More traditional metabolic circuits are not used in this program but have been gaining more and more popularity in the fat loss industry.
The nutrition program is pretty general, pointing you to certain levels of calories and breaking down those calories into specific energy sources. If you order the upgraded version you are given the Cheat Your Way Thin eBook. This book details a diet plan that includes a cheat day. The cheat day is supposed to help regulate leptin levels as you lose weight. The author Joel Marion argues that leptin levels are controlled by two things: our fat and our caloric intake. Have a cheat day and your leptin will rise and stay raised, Marion reasons. This diet plan is very similar to the Body For Life Program.
