The Cabral Concept

Short on time? Don't have a gym membership? Looking to get in amazing shape? Look no further! In my Boston weight loss & wellness practice I created a handful of gym-free fat loss intervals that clients can do outside, in a hotel room, or at home to burn body fat and tone up. The best part is that there is no equipment necessary and you can get in a full metabolic boosting workout in just 10-20 mi...

Doing a "cleanse" seems to be the talk of the town lately and they've certainly grown in popularity since celebrities starting using them a few decades back... But did you know that cleanses have been used for thousands of years? In Ayurvedic, Chinese, and Greek medicine we see thousands of documents showing their recommendations and successes... Most people could greatly benefit from an intestina...

Allergic reactions inside the body are one of the most under diagnosed causes for many of the health issues people are suffering from... The reason they're often missed is because your body doesn't always immediately react to an allergen or "pathogen" that's invading your body. Often times the histamine reactions build up over days and it's only then do you see symptoms. If you've ever suffered fr...

Today I want to teach you why over complicating your workouts doesn't get you better results! I see far too many people making up insanely difficult exercise routines & programs for no reason whatsoever - except to make the exercise even harder and look "cooler." It's that type of mentality that ultimately gets people injured and pushes them away from working out and making exercise a long-term pa...

Adding more fiber to your daily diet is one of the simplest ways to lose weight while improving your health - Today, I want to explain to you how to choose the right fiber type (soluble or insoluble) and how some types of fiber may not be the best idea to add into your daily meals until you correct your digestive issues... Plus, I'm going to review how many grams of fiber you should be taking in p...

One day a few months back I was trying to explain to one of the wellness clients in my Boston practice how to look at food & digestion in a new way... I wanted them to understand there are no "good" or "bad" wholefoods - only foods your body can easily digest, breakdown, and utilize... It's important to understand that when your digestive system is weak and you have reflux, bloating, gas, cramping...

Let's face it, sometimes you just have a bad day or week (or month!) and just need a way to hit the reset button... It's happened to everyone, but starting over is often easier said than done. The tough part is that our bad habits have begun to set in and now it's harder to break those patterns and adopt new ones - This is why I believe small incremental changes don't always work for a lot of peop...

Right now there's a lot of debate between those that believe workouts should be ultra-short 4-minute bursts and those that feel only longer 60-minute+ exercise programs will get results... As with everything, bio-individuality should decide who needs shorter workouts and who would benefit from longer routines - This helps eliminate a one-size-fits-all approach and allows for more individuality & c...

If you follow this rule you can expect to improve digestion, decrease bloating, lose weight & inches, decrease inflammation & pain, improve sleep, increase brain function, boost energy...

Over a billion people suffer from poor sleeping patterns - I used to be one of those people. Sometimes it would take me hours to fall asleep and some night's I wouldn't sleep at all. Then there were the nights where I'd fall asleep, only to wake up multiple times throughout the night... None of this is normal and it took me years of study to find the underlying root causes for sleep issues. And al...

It took me a decade to grasp this "philosophy," and it's not something you ever truly master... Too often we find ourselves in a state of perfectionism, where we want everything to be perfect before we even get started - Or worse, sometimes we're extremely hard on ourselves when we mess up on the path to achieving our goals... After having worked with thousands of clients, my mission is to help th...

We've been taught to believe that if something works, doing more of it must be better... It's a very American way of thinking and when it comes to certain workout styles this can get you in trouble. Today, learn the powerful metabolism boosting benefits of Tabata training and how to complete these intervals without going overboard. Plus, I outline what intervals are meant to be done for a more pro...

It's easy to look at and preach "eating less and exercising more," but often times there are deeper rooted causes for why someone can't lose the weight... At my Boston practice we look at the underlying imbalances with each client and have found that constipation can lead to inflammation, hormone imbalances, toxicity, and blood sugar dysregulation - which can then cause weight issues. My goal for...
