How To Get Ripped Super-Fast

Do you want to get ripped in turbo quick time? Well then, this is the article for you. Today, I'm going to cover the steps you need to take to do that.

Using this, you'll have a beach ready body in no time! Let's get cracking with what you need to do.

STEP 1: Set Yourself Measurable Goals With A Time-line

When setting goals for getting ripped, you are looking at "Losing Fat". It is key you note that this is NOT "Losing weight"! Weight includes muscle, water AND fat. So your weight could go down, but your fat levels could go up!

So to make sure you are reaching your goal, you need to be measuring your fat levels, which is measured in Body Fat %. To work this out, I suggest you get self-testing calipers, you can get these for under $10 from amazon.com. Using this you can check your level of body fat at any time.

To get shredded and ripped, you want to bring your body fat down to around 7%-10% and a good aim is to try and lose 0.5% fat per week. So using your calipers, measure your existing body fat, and you now know how long you it will take you to get there and what your goals are going to be!
 

STEP 2: Start Your Fat Shredding Workout Routine (which includes cardio and weight-lifting)

Don't underestimate the power of both cardio and weight-lifting in your fat shredding goal!

Weight-lifting, being the high intensity exercise it is, helps to burn fat AFTER exercise, when at rest. This is because it really boosts your metabolic rate, which burns calories whilst you do absolutely NOTHING.
 

Cardio, on the other hand, burns loads of calories during exercise. So it is the best way to burn fat DURING exercise.
By combining cardio and weight-lifting together you can get maximum fat loss DURING and AFTER exercise, which will drive the fat off your body!
Here are also 3 small training tips, which can super charge your fat loss efforts:
 

  • When weight training, use the highest weights you can, so for each set you do, you tire out after doing 6-12 reps. This produces the best results
     
  • Do your exercise first thing in the morning, before breakfast, on an empty stomach. That way your workout leads to a higher percentage of fat being burnt off
     
  • When doing cardio, do some interval training and normal jogging. This will torch your fat.

STEP 3: Get Your Nutrition Correct For Maximum Fat Destruction

Nutrition has a massive role to play. In fact it forms around 60% of your results. You see, burning fat, using the exercise routine described above is all great, but if you are eating more calories than what is being burnt, you won't lose fat overall!

So pay attention, this is important!
You need to reduce down on fast-digesting carbohydrates which include high sugar items like sodas and chocolates plus processed and fast foods. That means for carbohydrates, you want to only eat things like wholemeal rice, wholemeal bread, potatoes, beans etc. But you still want to keep the levels fairly low still.
 

You also want to eat a decent amount of lean protein, like grilled skinless chicken breast (or turkey breast), but reduce down on whatever fats you're eating. So avoid things like butter and stop frying food in oil, start using the grill!
 

Finally, it is really important you count your calories, and make sure you consume less than what you're taking in! It's vital you do this, otherwise you can wave bye, bye to your results!

STEP 4: Keep doing The Above Till You Get Ripped….Then Enjoy Showing Off Your New Physique

 And there you have it, you're simple guide to shredding that fat off your body fast! You can get beach body ready quicker than you think!

Muscle Building Nutrition Explained

There is this guy at the gym who has been working out pretty regularly the last six months. He seems serious enough in his workout and probably has a great workout routine too. The thing is, he has not gained enough muscle mass in spite of his dedication. Curious to know why?

The guy is not eating enough and he's not eating the right kind of food.

See, building muscle is 40% training BUT 60% good nutrition, so a solid diet is vital. "How vital?", I hear you ask. Well even if Arnold Schwarzenegger himself gave you his body building workout routine, everything would be a waste without the right kind of food.

So, if you ever thought "Can't I just follow a workout routine on a regular basis and get six-pack abs WITHOUT changing my diet and lifestyle?", the answer is NO! You would still have sorry-looking muscles after a year of hard training.

It is important you learn to "feed" your muscles correctly! A poor diet will just lead to poor performance and poor muscle growth. There is just no way around it.

Here are some bodybuilding nutrition tips I would like to share with you for better results.

Eat 5-6 Meals Per Day, And East Big

Forget about the 3-square-meals a day. Bodybuilders need 5 to 6 nutritionally balanced yet fairly large meals to bulk up. This prevents muscle breakdown, and provides enough calories for muscle growth!

For a regular person, preparing this many meals a day is torture so for someone who works out on a daily basis this can be difficult? The answer is bulk cooking and casein protein powder shakes, for meal replacement. However nothing beats a natural well-balanced diet made of solid food.

Load on lean protein and complex carbohydrates.

Both protein and complex carbohydrates are extremely important to your muscle gain effort. Protein builds your muscles back larger, whilst carbohydrates prevents muscle break down! So what do you eat?

You can get protein from skinless chicken breast, turkey breast, eggs, lean red meat and fish. Soy and nuts are good sources too. You should look to eat at least 1.5 grams of protein for every pound of your body weight for best results.

When it comes to Complex carbohydrates, look at potatoes, wholemeal rice, oats, wholemeal breads and pasta. Try not to eat cakes, cookies and sweets as they are not good for you and are more likely to pack on fat, rather than muscle mass!

Cook Healthily And Settle for a low saturated fats and low salt diet.

Grill, bake, and steam your food to avoid using oil (fat) in your meal. But If you must, use corn, sunflower, canola or soy oil. Also look to avoid animal and vegetable fat or butter, which contain unhealthy saturated fats. And when it comes to salt, only lightly salt your food.

In addition, you have to stop eating junk food and drinking sodas. Drink lots of water every day and eat fresh fruits and vegetables too.

There We Have It...

Follow these small simple tips and you'll see a massive improvement in results!

Six Pack Abs- The Secrets To Getting Yours

So I went downstairs last week and turned on the television to see one of those infomercial products which promises to build 6-pack abs. Have to say it makes the product look great. You have those amazing transformations where they go from being fat to showing off an amazing set of abs in a stupidly short time!

It all sounds fantastic doesn't it! Well it would be fantastic if it actually worked. These ads, as much as they are fun to watch, drive me up the wall! The majority of these companies are ripping you off and mocking your knowledge. Yet we still all buy them. Heck when I first started out I bought them.

But today, I want to clear this up for you and help you understand exactly what you need to do to get that all elusive six pack and a toned set of abs. So let's get rocking!

So Why Have You NOT Got Six Pack Abs?

Well to start off with, you may actually have a 6 pack, but quite simply, you just don't know it yet! For six pack abs, the most important part of your routine is the fat shredding. See, If you have layers of fat on top it doesn't matter, you won't be able to see any abs!

For a male, you need to bring your body fat percentage down to around 5-8% whilst women should look to bring it down to between 10-12%. So exercising those abdominal muscles with these machines may help build up a little muscle in that area, but it doesn't do the most crucial thing, burn the fat on top!

Now I am not saying crunches and abdominal exercise are NOT important, because they are (they make the six pack muscles bigger and increase your metabolic rate which destroys fat while you rest) but what I am saying is that you can't ignore nutrition and cardio as they play the MOST vital role in getting that elusive 6-pack.

See these infomercial companies make it seem like their product alone is the reason for the transformations shown! No they are not, if you read the small print they say things like "whilst following a solid nutrition and exercise plan".

Well duh! If you are following a solid nutrition and exercise plan you will get the results without these "wow so freaking amazing" infomercial products!

The other thing is, doing the same exercise week in week out won't work either, because your body gets used to it, which means your muscle gain and fat loss results will slow down before you can ever get to those amazing beach body abs.

So How Do You Get That Six Pack Then?

You need a solid program that has the following:

a) A solid cardio routine, including interval training to shred that fat right off
b) A weightlifting routine, which works the abs as well,
where you do 6-12 reps per set, with the heaviest weight you can possibly use. This builds your abs ready for viewing pleasure!
c) A solid nutrition routine
which leads to fast fat loss and a 6 pack to be proud off. You are looking to eat lower carbohydrates and fat, and slightly more protein!

If you mess up one of the above you mess up all your results.

There We Have It...

 Follow these small simple tips and you can achieve 6 pack abs that will have hot girls drooling over you!

The Best Way To Avoid Another Failed Season

Have you found yourself spending time thinking about the game you DON'T have lately?

Have you realized you're missing the kind of athletic gains in your life that you know are possible?

If so...

You're closer to having more inches, more muscle, and more game speed in your life than you might imagine.


This new year could be the year that the results you'll always dreamed about will happen.

BUT...

If you're like lots of athletes, as much as you want and try for athletic superiority, you're NEVER going to have the gains you want with the sport you really want.

Why?

Not because you aren't a good athlete.

Not because you don't want it enough.

And not because you aren't willing to dedicate yourself and your time in order to get results in return.

No. Your problem isn't any of this.

In fact, you've probably found yourself suffering from lacking correct training principles.

Your problem is that you're frustrated that you don't really know what it takes to bring your game to the next level... and make it LAST.

So instead you try desperately to make the little gains that you are receiving and experiencing into more than they are.

And your struggling and frustration in this is only making things worse.

Let me ask you...

Do you have the athletic achievements you really want in your life right now?

And did the last year bring you all the power over your competitors you hoped it would?

Or are you still struggling with how to put on muscle, how to gain quickness and strength... and how to push your vertical to the max?

Are you living your life to the fullest, and experiencing all your athletic potential that's possible?

Or have you spent most of the last year "spinning your wheels", with little or nothing to show for all your blood, sweat, and tears?

I'm asking about all this for an important reason...

Because if you went through unnecessary pain and heartache over the last year because of training based on WRONG PRINCIPLES...

I want to help make sure you NEVER have to suffer from the same mistakes and experiences in your future.

You open to some help with that?

Good.

That's why it's time to look back and learn why it is that you have NOT had what you want on the court yet.

A tremendous amount of learning and power comes from taking a look at what you've been doing and asking yourself honestly "Why isn't what I'm doing working?"

Now...

It's also time for you to really and truly start creating what it is YOU want.

That's why I want to ask you something.

And try to be as honest with yourself about this as you can be...

Did you figure out exactly how to start creating what it is you really want on the court this year?

Are you CONFIDENT in your ability to play the game the way you practiced? And to keep it going on and off the court?

Or are you just trying to fake it until SOMEONE comes along and does it FOR YOU?

That ain't gonna happen.

If there's any time to sit back for a second, take stock of your game and set a new path for success... it's RIGHT NOW.

Here are some of the tough questions you need to ask yourself if you'd like to create a better player for yourself this year...

1) Can you 360 at any time you choose?

2) Can you best all of your competition?

3) Have you ever alley ooped in a high pressure game?

4) Are you completely present and in the zone at every game?

5) Do you know how to shoot a basketball with unvarying consistency?

6) Is your vert at its absolute maximum potential?


Chances are, you answered NO to at least one of these questions... and that means you're making a few critical mistakes that could kill the kind of success you need at your beck and call at every game.

The good news is, now you can easily start to identify the mistakes you're making and, with a few quick and easy changes... start getting more athletic gains than you have ever before.

The only question now is...

Are you ready to make a commitment to yourself and to your game this year?

The best way I know of to help get you off to an amazing start and give you all the insights you'll need into improving your game is HERE:

If you're ready to turn your luck around right now... then you need to go and download this program "The Jump Manual"

The Hardgainer Program To Massive Huge Muscle Growth
 

There is just too much to cover in one article, but I am going to do my best to give you as much of the solution as possible. I'll cover nutrition, exercise and how you can make small changes in your practical life that can really help....
 

> NUTRITION
 

The main area where you're likely to need the most help is in your nutrition. So let's look at what you need to do.
First you need to work out how many calories you use in a day, this is dependent on how active you are. To give you an indication, it is likely to be around 2500-3500 calories per day, if you are working out between 3-4 times per week.
You want to then consume around 500 calories more than what you use in a day. This requires you to count calories. You should consume these calories by eating 5-6 meals per day.

 In addition to all that, you want to eat more carbohydrates. Eat things like wholemeal rice, wholemeal bread, bananas, beans etc. This will reduce muscle breakdown, so you keep the muscle you want on!

Also increase your protein intake, with foods like grilled chicken breast (skinless), turkey breast, tuna etc and get in some casein protein shakes.
Doing all of this can really help you with mass growth!
 

> WORKOUT
 

With your workout routine, you want to avoid cardio at all costs, and just focus on weightlifting.

With weightlifting, add 1 set per exercise where you choose a weight, which causes you to tire out after doing between 2-6 reps. Then for the rest of the sets, choose a weight where you get exhausted in 6-10 reps.
This overall is great for muscle gain, and also will help improve your muscle gain potential!
 

> PRACTICAL DAY TO DAY LIFE
 

With most hardgainers running around loads, you need to slow yourself down and make time for relaxation to do the simple things in life like lounging in bed or watching television.

 But if you find that hard, why not take up meditation. This will relax you exactly the way you require.

 And That's It...Let's Recap...

 You can defeat your skinny genetics, as long as you get your nutrition, weightlifting and some practical aspects correct! Remember you can achieve anything you put your mind to! And I'm here to help you achieve that.

Ready to add some inches to your vert? Here is your special report

Last time we talked about the first strategy to getting the results you want: confidence. Today you're going to learn what SCIENCE says about increasing your vertical jump.
Achieving a higher vert is like learning to ride a bike…
It's hard at first but once you're taught how to do it, you've got the knowledge for the rest of your life.
It is out there: the knowledge you need to be the best athlete you can be. And there's a secret to being the best athlete you can be.
So what is the secret?
By basing your workouts on correct scientific principles…the results HAVE to come.
The good news is: Once you start seeing some immediate results, you will find yourself increasingly excited to continue to improve.
Confidence was our first strategy. The best thing about a program based on science, not hype, is that you can have confidence that it will work—it's been proven. And if you can have the confidence that a vertical jump program is going to work for you, you can invest your time and energy with your all…and you could gain up to 25 inches on your vert.
Strategy #2: Get to Work
You there in the back: stop groaning! ;) Thanks in large part to the latest, most updated vertical leap technology getting inches on your vert is easier than ever. But it's still going to take some effort. Here's a list of quick tips to help you pin down where to start.
• First you've got to make a commitment to yourself that you are going to dedicate yourself to this. Write down your goals. Write down how you're going to practice, how many inches you want to gain, and how quick you want to become. Decide NOW, before you even begin, that you are going to give it your best effort.
• Work smart and hard, not just hard. Quality, not quantity, and intensity, not repetition, will bring more results. This little-known scientific principle is ESSENTIAL to your training.
In-Depth Research: Complex Training
In this vertical jump program, The Jump Manual, you'll learn the Nine Essential Aspects to getting your max vertical. You won't find an explanation like this anywhere else on the 'Net.
I'll even throw in a bonus: if you order The Jump Manual within the next week, I will include a surprise special interview: an interview with one of the most famous and respected voices in the performance field.

Are You Really Still Buying “Low Fat” Foods…?

Habits are so hard to break, aren't they?

Just listen to people as they order their food, whether it's at a restaurant or the grocery store or just their latté at Starbucks.

EVERYONE orders non-fat this and non-fat that… Like the smoked turkey at the cold cut counter. "Which one sir?" "Uhh, which one is lower in fat?"

Or the low-fat section of the restaurant menu. Or even your latté… make sure it's with low fat milk!

… and if you ask these people why, they all say the same thing: "Well…you don't want fat. Fat is bad for you."

But ask these same people where they heard this, or to at least cite one credible source or medical study or something… do you know what you'll get? Blank faces.

They'll look at you like you're the crazy one for even asking the question. After all… everyone knows fat is bad, right…?

Well, sorry but… wrong. Dead wrong.

Of course, it's really not difficult to understand how the whole "fat paranoia" came to be. First of all, we are hugely influenced by what we read and hear and see in the media. And let's face it… all the books were saying you need to go low fat.

Furthermore, it's not much of a stretch to reason that if you eat more fat, you will become more fat…

Unfortunately… that's just not how it works. It is the various combinations of protein, fat and carbohydrates you eat that work together.

Depending on which combination you eat (and how much of each), your body will either store fat, or burn fat. Not to mention helping with blood pressure and cholesterol, or making it worse!

The Hormone Revolution

I am writing this email sitting at my local mega book store and as I entered the store there was a big table set up boasting a bunch of the latest diet books. I picked up the first four and skimmed the contents, and you know what? "Low fat" is LONG GONE. And it's about time!

From the handsome star of that new health show, "The Doctors", to fitness guru and hottie Jillian Michaels, to old standbys like "The Zone", "Protein Power" and "Atkins" – these books (and so many more) all share the same theme... the theme that has finally, thankfully, replaced the low fat song.

What new theme you ask?

Hormones. You have the incredible power of being able to set your metabolism to whatever "state" you choose. Just with food.

The low fat diet (quite ironically) ends up setting your metabolism to a "fat storing" state, where a Primal diet will set your metabolism to a "fat burning" state. It really is your choice.

The amount of research available now, and testing that has been done, is staggering. (Including my own health recovery story!)

But all you really need to do is try it for yourself. See how you feel on a low fat diet; see if you lose weight at all; see how hungry you are all the time!

THEN compare it to a Primal diet. The proof is in the pudding. (Um… but stay away from pudding).
