What You Can Do With Your Body In One Month
- jedmeyers 13y agoWhat you can do with your body in one second by tensing your muscles...
- arshadgc 13y agoI hear what you're saying, and I'm definitely sucking in my stomach more in the second photo. But some things are impossible to fake: one can't flex shoulder muscles with the arms down; flexing the stomach doesn't lead to more definition around the lats, flexing doesn't cause the entire torso circumference to shrink relative to upper body.
- vraj5 13y agoYou also have much better lighting and it appears that you're holding your arms further from your body/flaring your lats a bit. Not doubting that a lot of great work can be achieved in one month, but your photos don't have the consistency that lets somebody actually judge progress (and the changes you're reporting are more qualitative). I haven't reviewed your program though, so I won't try to give an opinion of that. But this sentence I find points to a big cause of achieving fitness goals, "My wife is an excellent cook and prepared perfect meals for me" -- eating healthy doesn't mean you shouldn't eat well. For example, this can be done in one-hour: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/andrew-dixon/weight-loss-secrets_b_3643898.html http://www.huffingtonpost.com/andrew-dixon/weight-loss-secre...
- dsizzle 13y agoThere's mention of the "myth of calories in vs calories out", implying the relevant changes were not calorie-related, but there's no mention of typical exercise nor calorie intake before or during the month long experiment.
- consultant23522 13y agoI think the point is that fat can pass through the body without being absorbed easier than glucose. So calories from fat are less likely to become fat on your body than calories from simpler sugars. That's really the best I can come up with, but the article sounds like mostly nonsense.
- contextual 13y agoScam alert. I used to be into bodybuilding and read all the muscle mags I could get my hands on. I also learned how pro bodybuilders get that shredded look about a week or two before contest. It's the manipulation of muscle glycogen, salt and water intake. It's not exercise and meditation that would cause this (fake) transformation, as this advertisement would have you believe. Just research "muscle glycogen supercompensation" to find out what the guy in the before/after photos really did. I doubt they share that bit of info though. Again, pure scam, and one that's as old as the hills.
- jclos 13y agoI usually refer people to this youtube video by Furious Pete on the topic: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M957dACQyfU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M957dACQyfU
- gamblor956 13y agoTo further that, I see signs of photo manipulation in the second (after) photograph, i.e., the bizarrely V-shaped torso that is not match by corresponding visible gains in shoulder, chest, or back muscle, the areas of blurring around the suddenly muscular abs, etc. Oddly enough, he even appears to have gained a few inches in height...
- jetru 13y agoMan, you're pretty fit in the "before" pic. Everyone looks more buff right after a workout. Getting a good body is all about diligence, continuous work over a longer period of time. I don't doubt that your program is bad. Just that no one will gain anything significant by doing it for one month. You need to do it forever.
