We all want to be ripped. Success ultimately lies in finding that balance of gaining – and even maintaining muscle – while burning fat. There are a few factors in achieving this. For one, we have to get hormones like Growth Hormone and Testosterone working overdrive, while lowering levels of bad hormones like cortisol.
There are infinite dieting protocol’s that promise fat loss, but usually fail in helping us keep this fat off. And then there’s the ‘new kid on the block’: Intermittent Fasting (IF).
Intermittent Fasting (IF) is starting to gain some serious momentum in the nutrition and fitness industry. Why? Well, it makes sense both to the average Joe and the scientist, it’s easy to follow, and it’s more of a way of eating than a method of dieting. It’s also in direct conflict with many of the ‘facts’ that trainers, nutritionists, and yes even doctors have been teaching since Moses wore short pants.
So, what isIntermittent Fasting ?
Well, it’s exactly what it sounds like: periods of fasting, followed by eating. Some protocol’s bunch the majority of your meals into cheat days, while others have you eating a couple big meals after fasting for the first part of the day. Read the rest of this entry »
Henry Cavill did a lot of work to get in this shape for the Immortals.
You’ll see images of actors who get in amazing shape for a movie. Much is made of their transformation. Everyone wants to know what they did and how they achieved such impressive results. And then you hear about their training and the hours upon hours of hard work they put in to achieve these results. This is when people lose interest.
It’s true, there’s no substitute for hard work. Unless, of course, you compare it to smart work.
The problem with these transformations that actors go through, is that as soon as the movie is finished, they find themselves right back into their usual lifestyle. A lifestyle that is similar to a lot of our own, in that it leads to an average looking physique.
This series has been entirely about creating a lifestyle that will lead you to having a ripped physique year-round. No bulking and then cutting. We’ve gone over nutrition, supplementation, and lifestyle techniques, and now we get into my favourite topic: training. Read the rest of this entry »
The goal of this ‘Get Ripped‘ series is to give you strategies that both work, and are easy to follow. In order to get ripped, and stay ripped 365 days a year, there has to be alterations in our lifestyle. Dieting and following fads will always fail. But living a healthy life, and living in a way that is both fun, and easy to follow will last forever.
I’ve stayed at – or around – the same weight and same body-fat percentage for more than a couple years now, not because I live a strict life or because I have insane genetics, actually both are far from the truth. Instead I’ve figured out foods that taste great and are great for maintaining muscle, but also fat loss.
I mean, I have French Toast 4 times a week (syrup and all). I have grass fed beef burgers (no bun) with cheese, pickles, and mustard 4 or 5 times a week. I drink beer, Scotch, and smoke cigars. Yet, I’m in the best shape of my life. A miserable life filled with restriction isn’t a prerequisite for a life lived with our ideal physique.
Over this article, we’re going to go over some of the tricks I’ve incorporated in my dieting that have helped me see the results I want to see without making a ton of sacrifices in my lifestyle. We’ll also talk about some effective supplementation techniques that help us build muscle and burn fat at the same time.
Sometimes the solution to our problems are a lot simpler than we think. Quite often these solutions are right under our noses. So, I bring you 4 common problems, and the solutions to those problems:
1. Can’t focus at work.
When we’re focused and ‘tuned in’ to what we’re doing, we get a hell of a lot more done in much less time. Hours of work don’t necessarily Read the rest of this entry »
