Body Transformation Photo

I'm wanting to share with you a client of mine, who's seen fantastic results from his training. For confidentiality reasons I'm unable to reveal his name, but Mr X has seen a huge change in his physique over the last 6 weeks - losing an incredible 24.4lbs.

Mr X came to me with only 12 weeks in which to transform his physique. He trains with me once a week and an additional 2 times following my program.  The following protocol is what I have prescribed to him over these last 6 weeks:

• Substituting his breakfast of toast and cereal to a meat and nut breakfast.
• Omega 3 fish oil liquid - 10 grams 3-4 times per day with meals.
• L'Carnitine - 3-4 grams per day.
• Taurine - 3 grams post workout and 3 grams with evening meal.

With only a few adjustments made to his lifestyle Mr X has seen great results, and with another 6 weeks to go and more improvements to be made we're both looking forward to seeing the end result.

This Weeks Top Tip

According to top strength coaches the trunk or 'core' muscles are the least trainable muscle group in regards to increasing strength. The calfs on the other hand have the most potential for the greatest increases in strength.

In other words, spend an initial 6-8 week period on your functional 'core' exercises and then let the big lifts, such as squats, deadlifts and chin ups take care of the rest. Time spent after this period is, in my experience time wasted.

This Weeks Top Tip

By adding the following foods to your meal you can effectively lower the glycemic index of the meal by 30%

• Green Olives
• Dills and Sweet pickles
• Horseadish
• 1/2 lemon or lime
• Pickled beets, peppers, garlic, legumes
• Vinegar

I often use this tip for clients who eat out regularly and find it hard to avoid low carbohydrate meals.

Success Story #3

It's the end of the week and I just wanted to tell you of another client's success story.

I'd like to congratulate one of my female clients on her outstanding drop in body fat %

In as little as 24 days she has dropped from 32.01% to 27.01%

A small change in her eating habits has led to this fantastic 5% drop.

                                                                                                Well Done

Success Story #2

I'd just like to congratulate one of my clients on his successful weight loss so far.

He came to me for training 2 weeks ago and wasn't at all happy about his weight.

He weighed in at 111kgs.

I amended his training and changed one aspect of his eating habits.

Two weeks on, he now weighs 103.2kgs.

A staggering loss of 7.8kgs

                                                           Well Done and keep up the good work!

This Weeks Top Tip

When performing incline dumbbel curls make sure to keep the head back against the bench. When the exercise begins to get difficult push your head/neck into the bench as it will help increase neural drive to the biceps and improve concentric strength.

I see so many people perform this exercise whilst tilting their head forward. This leads to a slower communication time between the CNS and the muscle that will inevitably make you weaker!

This Weeks Top Tip

The next time you perform a squat think about pushing the ground away from you instead of pushing the weight up. You'll find the concentric part of the lift much easier.

I use this mentality with clients to instantly improve explosive strength of their lift.
