A colleague of mine recently earned his ‘Pro Card’ (A designation to be able to compete in the professional ranks for cash. Generally you have to win your weight class at a national championship) in the premier natural bodybuilding federation the WNBF. This federation attracts the best natural athletes on the planet as it has by far the toughest drug testing policy in natural bodybuilding plus prize money that is significant by bodybuilding standards.

Whilst surfing various forums and sites for contest results and pictures I also read various posts by detailing the diet and training secrets of some of the best professional natural bodybuilders on the planet for maximizing muscle gain and Fat Loss.

Guess what the best of the best, world-class physiques do to build muscle and lose fat?

1. They learn as much as they can and continuously research how the human body works and over time refine their understanding of their own unique muscle growth and fat loss physiology.

2. They eat clean and they are specific. Sweet potato, beef, chicken, vegetables, good fats and plenty of water. All day, every day in the right amounts and at the right times for their body to keep their body fueled and burning fat constantly.

3. They train smart. Once they know how their body works they create a training program that stacks up with the science of muscle grow adapted to how their body responds best.

4. They get their final edge with intelligent and rational supplementation. The pros of the WNBF know the handful of supplements that works and stick to them. They have everything else in line as well and know that supplements are not a miracle answer for deficient training and diet.

That’s it! A simple four step process for developing the body of your dreams. Yes, there’s effort and discipline involved but what everyone needs to understand is, once you get your body to the level where you’ve treated it to clean, functional eating for a period of time, you can relax a little, say over any festival periods it’s not a problem to get get your body back into pristine condition again because there’s not much work your body’s got to do to eliminate any excess toxicity that’s built up over a short space of time.

You don’t have to become a world champion body builder to join the fitness elite – the term ‘fitness elite’ means knowing exactly how to work with your body in an intelligent, holistic way, so you can sculpt your body to your own specifications at will, naturally. It’s not rocket science, it’s biology! How you can transform your body and enjoy all the wonderful fruit that comes with it, if you don’t take the time first to understand the very basics of what it requires to enable it to transform most efficiently? Impossible and downright insane.

To get your best body ever, it doesn’t get any better than following in the footsteps of those with world class physiques. Ultimate Body Success was created from the very same foundations that built and continues to build the best bodies on the planet but most importantly allows YOU to do the same.

Unrealistic expectations have proven to be the downfall of many who pursue muscle building or fat loss, as bodybuilding far too often becomes a pursuit of transforming into someone else, as opposed to maximizing the individual genetic potential that each of us has been granted.  We may frequently see individuals on the Internet, TV or in magazines who have the bodybuilding physique we aspire towards, so we somehow feel that by weight training and eating a certain way, we can develop an identical appearance, when in fact our physical makeup is unique and specific to each of us, meaning that results others produce do not in any way indicate we are capable of the same, or conversely, we may even be able to greatly exceed the bodybuilding success of those we admire.  Yet there is no way of knowing our own individual potential without first following an effective diet and weight training routine to determine how our body responds.

The unfortunate downside of basing our own level of bodybuilding satisfaction upon achieving the physique of another is that, although we may produce muscle building or fat loss progress that impresses nearly every person we meet, in our own mind, we remain inferior, since our standard is not based upon how much we’ve achieved, but rather whether we’ve become the person we choose to emulate, and therefore, regardless of how our progress appears to others, we continually seek for the impossible dream, and eventually either quit bodybuilding altogether, or decide to experiment with dangerous drugs or bodybuilding supplements instead of modifying our expectations to match our own potential.

Genetics offer us a barrier which we all must obey, no different from one who wishes to become a basketball superstar but lacks sufficient height, yet, in bodybuilding, very few ever achieve their own genetic potential, not necessarily due to lack of effort, but rather resulting from diet and weight training errors which plague muscle building or Fat Loss efforts.  Certainly, if one were training and eating perfectly, genetics will then eventually limit future gains, and will also impact the overall speed of results, but most who feel genetics is curtailing any positive change actually are eating and weight training without any sense of direction, which is the true culprit behind disappointing progress.

Muscle building or fat loss is as unique as our personalities, and we should never try to emulate or become another in our pursuit of physical fitness, rather forging our own road by maximizing the individual bodybuilding potential each of us has, and doing so through an effective bodybuilding diet and weight training routine.  When we begin to view bodybuilding as an experiment in personal achievement, we then begin to finally relish in the improvements we make, as opposed to feeling constantly deprived by focusing on the achievements of another.

I am eating heavy and lifting heavy to get size,mass, strength and I did.
In 1 month I will change my lifting workout to burn more fat,define and gain muscle seperation.
My problem is that I just don’t know how to eat or diet to strip fat off. I have the muscle I just need the excess fat to be gone from the muscle I have accumulated.
How do I start? I was thinking of eating METRX for 2 day’s just to shrink my stomach and then going hardcore high protien/low fat?
Help if you can relate?

www.FatlossLifeStyle.com for Free Stuff When & How Should I Warm-Up, Stretch, Exercise, and Cool Down? Welcome to my Advanced Stretching Video # II. I get tons of questions about this topic. There seems to be a lot of confusion about stretching. We all seem to not have enough time in the day for all that we need to do. So it is logical that most of us skip stretching. But that is a big mistake. I know it seems counter intuitive but more time not working out intensely will get you to your goals faster. You will become more flexible and lower your risk for injury. You will be able to stay more consistent to your work out schedule thus obtaining better results. The proper sequence of an intense work out should be: •Warm up •Light stretching •40 50 minutes of intense resistance training •Intense stretching the last ½ of the intense resistance session •Cool down Warm Up- It is very important to transition into an intense work out with 10 minutes of a low level cardio vascular activity. Some modes of exercise that work well are jumping jacks, jump rope, martial art kicks, squat thrust, or any full body callisthenic type exercise. However my favorite mode is power walking on the treadmill. Starting speed is nice and slow. I (I am 59) start at 3.5 mph and increase the speed by .1 mph every minute. Over the course of the 10 minute warm up I will go from 3.5 mph to 4.5 mph. Due to limitations in space here if you want this full special report on stretching go to FatlossLifeStyle
