Asks:
I was on a no-carb high protein diet and I lost some weight
quickly, but as soon as I started eating carbs again I
gained the weight back. how can I lose weight and keep it
off?
- Sarah Bolon -

Hi Sara
This is a common problem
we deal with daily at Maximum Fitness. The basic problem
with low carb diets is that it is a very drastic, difficult,
and potentially dangerous "diet". A balanced nutritional
program, consisting of protein, carbs, and healthy fats will
allow you to lose weight and keep it off permanently.

What are the best exercises for toning, and strengthening my
legs?

Hi Julia
Wow. Where do i start.
Assuming you don't have any debilitating leg problems, I
would off with a some variation of a dumbell squat, followed
by a walking lunge, and either stiff-legged deadlifts or a
leg curl. These leg exercises are very efficient so 2-3 sets
of each should be sufficient. Obviously keep good form and
stay safe, but don't be afraid to sweat a little.

My 14 year old son is interested in weight training for
sports. Is he to young?
- Gary Crombach, Wilson, N.Y. -
Chuck's Reply:
Hi Gary
We train several young
athletes and have a great time with them. First check with
your Primary Practitioner and inform him of it. Next, hire a
trainer you feel comfortable with, so your son can be taught
proper technique. With proper training your son should have
no problems weight training.
