After all, what bodybuilder doesn\u2019t enjoy walking into a restaurant or mall, and having everybody gawk at their massive biceps and huge traps? However, most people draw a line at how big they\u2019re willing to get because \u2013 while freakish builds like that of Markus Ruhl or Jay Cutler may get you all of the attention in the world \u2013 it\u2019s not necessarily going to score you hot women.<\/p>\n<table border=\"0\" width=\"40%\" cellpadding=\"10\" align=\"right\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<div align=\"center\"><!-- thumb --><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/www.elitefitness.com\/images\/rob-riches\/rob-riches.jpg\" alt=\"Male Model Rob Riches\" width=\"400\" height=\"751\" \/><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Male Fitness Model and EF Member Rob Riches<\/p>\n<p>Instead, most bodybuilders eventually aspire to develop a ripped, well-proportioned build like that of a male fitness model. It isn\u2019t hard to see why either because it\u2019s usually some model like <a href=\"\/\/www.elitefitness.com\/articles\/\/sagi-kalev\" target=\"_blank\">Sagi Kalev<\/a> or <a href=\"\/\/www.elitefitness.com\/articles\/\/rob-riches-natural-bodybuilding\" target=\"_blank\">Rob Riches<\/a> that we see on magazine covers with a perfect 10 draped all over him. And believe it or not, things don\u2019t change much from the magazine covers to real life. So if you\u2019re interested in achieving the insanely-desirable fitness stud look that women love, here are our top 10 tips for how to get built like a fitness model.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Male Fitness Model Male Fitness Model Tip #1 \u2013 Be willing to sacrifice Strength for Looks<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nobody makes a New Year\u2019s resolution to lose 20 pounds off of their bench press over the next year. But when your main focus is to get cut, sometimes you\u2019ll lose a little bit of strength in the process. This being said, do what it takes to achieve your overall goal by putting in extra cardio and eating clean \u2013 rather than eating to add bulk. Also, forget about impressing other guys in the gym by lifting heavy when you may need to scale back some instead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Male Fitness Model Tip #2 \u2013 Up your Anaerobic Threshold<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At the risk of sounding overly-obvious, I\u2019d like to say that you need to increase your current level of cardio in order to achieve a fitness model physique. However, you don\u2019t just wake up one morning and decide that you\u2019re going to go from walking 1 mile daily to running 5 miles a day; instead, you need to steadily increase your anaerobic threshold (AT). Expanding on anaerobic threshold, this refers to your body\u2019s ability to remove lactic acid. Simply put, a higher AT level enables you to work out harder, longer, and recover quicker the next day. Interval training on the treadmill or at an outdoor track is a great way to increase your AT, while there are various other forms of hard exercise that can do the job too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Male Fitness Model Tip #3 \u2013 Strongly consider doing Pilates<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The mere mention of this tip might have you rolling your eyes while thinking about the middle-aged, minivan-driving moms who huddle up in posh gyms for Pilates class. Moving past the wimpy stereotype, Pilates is actually a pretty solid workout routine that builds lean muscle, flexibility, and endurance throughout the body. In addition to the obvious physical benefits that Pilates offers, it also relieves stress and helps increase agility. So if you\u2019re truly looking for a new type of exercise that challenges you in unique ways, check out a class sometime. You might even meet some non-middle-aged, mini-driving chicks in the process!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Male Fitness Model Tip #4 \u2013 Gradually reduce your Caloric Intake<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It goes without saying that a great way to shed a few pounds involves cutting your calories. But do keep in mind that drastically reducing your food intake is by no means a shortcut to getting shredded abs. Sure it might make sense mathematically that, by eating far fewer calories, you\u2019ll lose far more weight. But your body\u2019s metabolic process doesn\u2019t work like a calculator. Instead, it will go into starvation mode when you cut up to 1,000 or more calories out of your daily eating schedule; when this happens, your body stores nearly everything that\u2019s eaten in an effort to maintain homeostasis. Case in point, start with dropping 400-500 calories off your daily diet and go from there.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Male Fitness Model Tip #5 \u2013 Drink Water\u2026.and then drink some more<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sometimes it amazes me how many athletes hit the gym regularly and constantly eat clean, yet forget one very important step in their routine: drinking water. First off, water helps you stay hydrated throughout the day, which, in turn, powers you through tough workouts. Secondly, water plays a huge role in metabolizing all of the protein you eat \u2013 or at least should be eating. So rather than opting for sugary juices or soda, be sure to keep water on hand at all times.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Male Fitness Model Tip #6 \u2013 Don\u2019t obsess over Crunches and Sit-ups <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One common tendency among bodybuilders who suddenly resolve to favor build over mass involves going crazy with crunches and sit-ups. And this is sometimes even true of people who know that their abs aren\u2019t going to get chiseled without lots of cardio. Whatever the case, it\u2019s important to understand that while crunches and sit-ups do build your ab muscles and make them more visible, you\u2019re not going to see truly-defined abs until you put some major cardio work in as well.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Male Fitness Model Tip #7 \u2013 Test out the 50-30-20 Ratio<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Let me start this piece of advice off by saying that no two people are going to respond \u201cexactly\u201d the same to a certain ratio of carbs, protein and fat. However, if you\u2019re completely at a loss for how much of each nutrient you should be eating, the answer is not the Atkins diet or fat-free diet. Instead, a good starting point is to eat 50% carbohydrates, 30% protein and 20% fat each day. Depending on how your body responds to the diet, you might tinker with the percentages; however, this serves as a nice starting point for getting shredded like a fitness model.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Male Fitness Model Tip #8 \u2013 Practice Short Rests, Lower Weights<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A good way to get away from the aforementioned heavy lifting mentality is to throw in plenty of workouts with shorts rests and lower weights. For example, you could do sets of 12 reps where you\u2019re only taking 45-second breaks in between each set. Assuming you can keep up with a brutal workout like this, you\u2019ll be getting in an intense, muscle-building session. Of course, this isn\u2019t to say that you have to completely abandon the heavier weights \u2013 just mix in some tough, short-rest sessions too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Male Fitness Model Tip #9 \u2013 Don\u2019t forget to Rest<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While training like a fitness model can be an intense, year-round ordeal, this doesn\u2019t mean that you should be in the gym 24\/7. Instead, your body will respond better if you completely take some days off each week. For example, if you work a couple of different muscle groups every day, you could work out for five straight days, then take two straight days off. Whatever path you choose, just make sure that you\u2019re taking some days off so your body has time to rebuild.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Male Fitness Model Tip #10 \u2013 Consider using Steroids<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Depending upon how closely you want to resemble a true male fitness model, you may need to use steroids to get there. The sad reality is that we\u2019re not all born with perfect genetics that enable us to cut fat easily while effortlessly gaining muscle. Plus many top fitness models and bodybuilders have used roids to get where they are today, which means those who are shooting for the top should think about doing the same. If you\u2019re totally new to juicing, it\u2019s extremely important to learn everything you can about the subject before buying a single pill.
