Fat Loss Made Simple

[hardasnails73]

I did not no by no means of being sarcastic, I just like to take a balanced and scientific approach to weight loss with minimal muscle loss. Drastic changes are not the best way to go and usually deter the average person a way from accomplishing their goals. We are here to help each other not to critice or mock each other. So if you have a problem with that I'm sorry if it came across the wrong way. Each thing doesn;t work for the same person that for damn sure. You just have to experiment to find out what works best for your body. In order to be successful one has to adapt to a new environemt and gradual change is the best for the average person. The average person is not as discpline as most of us "Hardcore" people. This approach works for both the natural and enhanced athlete as well, It just has to be modified by 10-15% for enchanced athletes. I'm fortunate to have access to some of the top researchers in the field of nutrition, kinesiologist and biochemistry today and that is why i enjoy sharing this information with fellow board members becuase alot of people on here are just spinning their wheels and going no where fast. I admit i was in their shoes years ago, but why should other people not learn from mistakes that veteran boards made in the past? I think alot of people tend to use too many drugs to offset there lack of knowledge of trainning and nutrition. If people would learn more about the science of training and nutritioin they would be able to lower the dosages and get better solid gains. Of the members i have met in persoon from here not to many impressed me, but that doesn;t go for every one I know. It was just an observation. By the way if you don't you can place high at a national level show with minimal dosages. I will prove that theory wrong. Personally i don't like becoming a human pin cushion before a show so I go clean 5-6 weeks out. By the way i only inject my self about 10 times during the whole 10 week for contest prep and no i don;t take orals at all !! . My goal is top five at junior nationals and possible top 3. my trade mark is my conditoing and symmetry that is what wins it for me each time. !! Currently i'm 5'9 at 212 under 5% bf and been clean for 5 weeks !! so i will be 8 weeks clean going into the junior nationals. I hope to set an example that you don;t need a huge amounts of drugs to achieve your goals, but rather hard work discpline, and a lot of knowledge with take you even further.

Peace

Good stuff nails! I didnt' read any attitude in the post btw. I think people keep forgetting that its not all that hard and secret is to follow a diet that supports your body's current needs & your goals, and to not eat garbage while you are dieting. But to avoid the urge to eat garbage (excluding an occassional cheat meal), the most important thing is for a diet to be part of your lifestyle - not something that makes it hard to live w/ the schedule and extra work to make/pack your food.

I also like the lack of required huge piles of cardio and supps.

I hear hardasnails is one ripped mofo right now so I can hardly wait to hear the results of your comp!

nice article nails. bump for the time taken to write it. but i think u make it even to difficult. for me it couldnt be simpler, eat a few veggies chicken and some rice down some ephedra and caffeine (BTW try the vitamin shoppe body tech line cheap and works great). do some mild exercise, i like 20 rep pushup/20 rep situp supersets (3 of em back to back w/out stoppin) takes me about two weeks to thin out, and then another moth or so for my cuts to really start to show.

It's not that simple.

Otherwise, word of the "ultimate diet" would spread like wildfire, and jenny craig's and gyms would go out of business and everyone in the coutnry would fit and trim and running around with tons of energy.

Doesn't work liek that.

For starters, genes play a HUGE part in getting fat. New studies have proven that many people are prone to just getting fat WAY more easily than others. Meanwhile some people with good genes can eat all they want and NEVER get fat (ie: the different "morph" bodytypes).

Yes, some people are more prone to high bodyfat levels than other because of many factors. It could be insulin resistance, leptin resistance, high estrogen levels, big appetite, etc.

That doesn't negate the fact that the machanics of a diet are VERY simple. I think toughasnails was refering to all of the crazy ideas people come up with for diets when for most people >12% bodyfat, a diet with a caloric deficit will be equivalent to another in terms of results.

Remember: If you're fat, and you get on steroids -- you'll create TONS of muscle and lose all that fat in no time.

You are a moron.

So what can you do? Find stuff SIMILAR to steroids, that can almost get you the same result, but with a little bit more work.

again... moron
