Dare To Be Different

By on

body sculptingIn order to sculpt your body into an amazing work of art this year, you MUST “dare to be different”. With a large segment of the worlds population being obese and an even larger segment being over weight, carving out 6-pack abs will set you apart from 95-97% of the population. Achieving the goal of being absolutely RIPPED, will place you among 1% of the population at most.

It’s important to acknowledge that you WILL be different from many people that you come in contact with. That may feel a bit strange when you think about how often we tried to “fit in” throughout our lifetime. But when it comes to body composition, this is one area where it does not serve us well to “fit in with the crowd”.

Achieving your physique goals this year will require you to think different and act different than most people. While others are saying, “Live a little and have another beer”, you will pass on that beer. While others are hitting the snooze button and staying in bed, you will jump out of bed and hit the gym. While others get caught up in the hype of fad diets and workout programs, you will opt for the time tested and proven strategies of the classic physique artists. While others are looking for short cuts and magic potions in their quest to finally get ripped, you will put forth the work ethic, consistency, and discipline that it takes to achieve the incredible body composition results that you desire. about Dare To Be Different

Leg Workout For The Body Sculptor

By on

If you’ve been looking for a way to spice up your leg workout, I’ve got a treat for you today. I’m going to share the workout that I’ve been following this month to continue sculpting my legs. This workout is from the most recent Metabolic Masterpiece Body Sculpting Program called Greek God(dess) Gauntlet.


Leg Exercises

NOTE: If you are not familiar with some of the exercises, click here to view the video demonstration page >>>

Front Squats 8 sets of 8: After a warm up I began the workout by taking a page out of Vince Gironda’s book and performing 8 sets of 8 with the Front Squats. I only allowed 15 seconds rest between sets.

This takes careful consideration in selecting the weight. It must be about Leg Workout For The Body Sculptor

Wake Up Call For Your Hamstrings

By on

When you think about training your hamstrings, the most common exercises that come to mind are Stiff Leg Deadlifts and Leg Curls. I’ve been hooked on the T-Bar Stiff Leg Deadlift for the past few months ever since my buddy Tom Venuto introduced them to me. I get an amazing stretch and contraction with that hamstring exercise. I’ll be sure to record a video of the T-Bar Stiff Leg Deadlift soon. The regular Deadlift also makes for one heck of a glute and hamstring exercise.

When I asked the members of Tom’s Burn The Fat Inner Circle if they had any alternative exercises that really blast the hammies and glutes I was surprised to hear Tom suggest Glute-Ham Raises. I was even more surprised when Tom mentioned that Glute-Ham Raises are not only difficult, but you can expect 3x the muscle soreness afterward.

Delicious High Protein Crepes

In a previous post I shared my love for high protein pancakes. Well, now I have a new love… high protein crepes. I have been experimenting with a variety of recipes… some that are high in carbs for a post workout meal and some that are low in carbs. Here are a few of the delicious recipes so far…

High Protein Crepes

Blend all the ingredients together in a blender and pour into a frying pan making a thin layer.

Spread on whatever topping that you wish. I used 1 tsp natural peanut butter for each crepe. You can also use natural honey, or sugar free jam…. or whatever your hearts content.

Please watch this video to see how I make the crepes nice and thin…

High Protein Oatmeal Pancakes

By on

When it comes to body sculpting nutrition, one of my main goals is to consume at least 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight everyday. It’s just as important that I consume adequate amounts of carbohydrates to keep my energy levels up throughout my weight training sessions. That’s what makes high protein oatmeal pancakes an ideal meal for physique artists like you and me.

I have been experimenting with a variety of high protein oatmeal pancake recipes. Here are just a few to give you an example. Please feel free to modify the recipes to suit your caloric needs…
