Mass Media is great for spreading fitness misinformation especially when it comes to nutrition so here are a few things to keep in mind that will help you sift through all the nutrition info garbage out there Eating to simply lose weight and eating to change your body composition is not necessarily the same thing. To really change your body you have to follow an eating plan that will enhance the muscle building process while encouraging fat loss. Simply eating low calories is not enough. Sure you can lose weight by just lowering your...

Nutrition and Cardio are the keys to getting super lean. You can have the greatest weight training workouts in the world but if your nutrition and cardio plan is lacking you will not achieve super lean status! Here are a few pointers to keep in mind as you structure your plan… Cardio: Remember to keep it short (16-20 minutes) and intense. You should be “huffing and puffing” the whole time. You need to be out of your comfort zone. Short duration/high intensity cardio will have a greater impact on your metabolic rate and...
read moreKey Workout Principles That Will Maximize Results!
I’ve used the Max-OT (Maximum Overload Training) principles for over 14 years and have instructed countless others on this highly effective method with tremendous success. Max-OT was developed by AST Sports Science founder and one of my mentors, Paul Delia. I had the privilege of working with Paul directly for four years when I lived in Colorado and worked at the AST Sports Science headquarters. That was the greatest educational experience of my life and also the most productive years of my training. In that time I like to think that...

Achieving a lean and muscular midsection is all about fat loss. You can do 1000 crunches a day and it won’t make any difference because you can’t spot reduce fat.

read moreFat Loss Cardio Tips!
1. DO NOT perform cardio first thing in the morning on an empty stomach! This is a great way to encourage muscle wasting. As soon as you wake up I recommend consuming whey protein isolate and a carbohydrate source (my favorite combo is VP2 Whey Isolate by AST Sports Science with breakfast cereal as you can see in my “Lost Logs” e-book.) After you have supplied the critical nutrition upon waking you can then attack Max-OT cardio and achieve great results! 2. Keep cardio short and intense. 16 to 20 minutes of high intensity cardio will have...

I reference the Max-OT principles all the time and I am always saying in order to get the most out of the system you need to follow all the Max-OT principles and not just pick and choose the ones you like and disregard the ones you don’t. One of the important but often overlooked principles is a scheduled week off. Scheduled weeks off every 8-10 weeks yields important physical and mental benefits that will help increase your long term results. In the excerpt below from my eBook “Inside the Mind of a Champion” I address this...
read moreWeight Progression Tip
It is true when using the Max-OT principles you are striving for a continual progression of overload. That means once you complete 6 “good” reps with any given movement it is time to increase your weights by the smallest increment available. The key phrase in that last sentence is “good reps.” What do I mean by 6 good reps? That means you are in control of the weight for all 6 reps and require very little to no assistance from a spotter to complete the last rep. If you are sloppy or really struggle to get 6 reps it is...
