How to Get Ripped Now

By Curtis Joel

Many articles have been written about creatine and periodization. In every magazine open you'll see thermogenic products from cover to cover. So why is it that after reading all of these articles you still aren't as lean and muscular as you want to be? The answer is simple.

You've gained knowledge about some of the components of the body transformation process -- not the entire picture. You just need to learn how to put all of the pieces together into a whole system.

What I'm going to do now is provide you with a series of articles that will help you put all of those fragments of body change knowledge you've acquired into a usable whole. The system you're about to discover has been proven to work and it's doable.

In the first part of your body transformation program you're going to implement a strength training technique that I've dubbed "metabolic shift" training. This is the most effective method for releasing fatty acids from storage for burning and for getting lean.

If you're like most people you've tried other routines that other people said have worked for them. You tried the ones you've seen in the fitness magazines, you've tried your gym buddies routine and it probably didn't work for you. That's because there is no perfect routine.

The idea is to challenge and feed your muscles with a stimulus that brings about improvement, and then, just before the body adapts to that stimulus, kick in a new challenge without overtraining.

While the general guidelines of muscle development apply to "all," you are an individual with individual strengths, unique recuperation and recovery abilities, and your own metabolism, therefore, once you understand and apply the general rules, you'll learn to self-customize the specifics of your training.

Good news: there is a way to control your metabolism and the amount of fat that covers your body. However, there is a prerequisite for making that change. You'll need to learn to control how to build muscle and burn fat.

The most common mistake that people make is attempting lose fat without having a concern for muscle. Did you know that muscle is the site where fat itself is burned? So doesn't it make sense that if you want to burn more fat that you'd want to improve that quality of your fat burning furnace?

How did you get introduced to strength training? Three times a week, basic compound movements, resting every other day? At first that worked. Then you learned more and you may have met someone that trains legs on Fridays and chest on Tuesdays.

You learned about supersets and forced reps. Your "thighs," rather than consisting of hams and quads, soon became inner quads, outer quads, sweep, and teardrop. The overhead presses you started with for delts were soon joined by all types of lateral movements to the front, sides, and rear.

The interesting thing is that this is the natural progression for most strength training athletes. As they advance their results seem to diminish. Why is this? - 17269
