Cena's Five Essential Exercises
1.Glute/Ham Raise
HOW TO DO IT: Secure your feet against the back plate of the apparatus and rest the middle of your thighs on the pad. Keeping your lower back in its natural arch, straighten your knees, lowering your body toward the floor. Stop when you feel your back is about to lose its arch [1]. Tuck your chin to your chest and explode back upward, bending your knees and pulling with your hamstrings to raise your body straight and vertical [2]. That's one rep. Use a spotter at first, as beginners can find it difficult to complete even one rep. Try to get strong enough that eight reps is no challenge.
2.Squat 3.Deadlift 4.Power Snatch 5.Power Clean

Fat-burning exercise, diet and lifestyle secrets
1. Maximize your muscle. Muscles are fat-burning furnaces, so be sure to do enough resistance training to build and maintain them and follow your workouts with a snack or meal balanced in protein, carbohydrates and fat. Each pound of muscle can raise your Resting Metabolic Rate up to 15 calories per day
2. Don't starve yourself. Eat 6 small meals a day to avoid blood-sugar spikes and minimize urges to binge. Try to schedule meals at the same time each day. If you feed yourself well throughout the day, you'll learn to understand when your body is going to need food.
3. Get real. Fuel your body with wholesome, nutritious foods, and limit your intake of refined carbs (anything sugary or white-flour based). To maximize the calories burned through digestion and stave off hunger, get plenty of complex carbs to fuel your body throughout the day and eat a little protein with every meal. It doesn't need to be meat; nuts, lowfat dairy, tofu, and beans are all good vegetarian protein sources.
