I want you to do me a favor. I know you’re gonna hate it, but please do it anyway. I promise you it will make life so much simpler…make things so much clearer…and save us so much time in the coming months.
I want you to go back to school with me for a minute, and review some simple math.
If you’ve ever tried to lose fat on your own you know how challenging it can be.
Have you ever quit your exercise routine because you became bored with it? And going to the gym seemed like a chore?
Have you ever struggled to lose just a few pounds, even though you were going to the gym and eating a bunch of boring healthy foods?
The sad fact is that most people who try to do it on their own fail. Very rarely does their body seem to change much, even when they try their hardest.
By far, the absolute best solution to this problem is to get a personal trainer. They can guide, direct and motivate you to a better body. Personal fitness trainers can help to change someone’s physique like nothing else on the planet
But, many times this isn’t the case and the trainer ends up being more problems than they’re worth… Read the rest of How to NOT Get Fleeced By A Personal Trainer…
This month, I am going to be revisiting back training. Back training will help you develop a powerful V taper look in the upper body. If you’re female and don’t care for a “V taper” don’t worry – you’re not going to end up looking like a guy! And a well-toned back is very sexy, so go for it!

Steroids. They’ve been a topic of discussion in my life for over 25 years. Do I recommend them? Never! Have I worked with athletes who have used them and found at least short-term benefit? Absolutely! Have I helped people get “off the juice” by helping them better understand training and eating? Yes, and that feels good!
I am often asked about steroids via e-mail, and the questions are usually related to specific drugs and dosages. “How many mg. of Sustanon should I do per week in an 8-week cycle,” or “is it better to mix Winstrol and Primo for a 12 week cycle, or should I start with Anadrol to get some size first?”

I find it peculiar the way shoulders are something of an afterthought for many bodybuilders.
REMEMBER: I call anyone who walks through the door of a gym a bodybuilder… that includes you, ladies.
I think it has a lot to do with the fact that the muscles involved in shoulder pressing are so similar to those used in chest pressing that they play second fiddle. I’ve seen many bodybuilders and serious weight trainees devote an excessive amount of time and energy on their pecs, but only rush through a few quick sets for delts.
Nothing looks sillier than a guy with a big chest, decent arms and little width and thickness to his shoulders.
It’s a narrow, girlish look.
That’s right – GIRLISH!

The buns are getting loads of press lately. It seems a perky posterior is as high a priority for many women as a pair of equally perky breasts. Some women are going to great lengths to achieve a more voluminous back-side, including undergoing buttock implants, augmentation and fat injections – extreme procedures when trying to eradicate a saggy, unimpressive derriere.
Haven’t these people heard of weight training?

As a personal trainer, I have been approached many times by clients or other women in the gym asking me questions on the best ways to “tone up, lose cellulite, get a butt that ’sticks out’, get a sexy stomach…” the list goes on.
My answers are always the same. There is no magic pill or powder or even secret that trainers, professional athletes or fitness models are keeping from the general public. It all comes down to hard work, being conscious of your diet and, most importantly, being consistent.
If it were easy everyone would be in perfect shape all of the time. To quote Bill Cosby,
“In order to succeed, the desire for success
must be greater than the fear of failure.”

Ahhhhh . . . . the sounds of a gym. Music blaring, people chattering, workout partners shouting at one another believing that the greater the decibel level the easier the rep, people grunting as they grind out one final rep before complete muscle failure, and of course, what would a “gym” be without the reverberation of . . . weights CLANKING, BANGING, SLAMMING, SMASHING and CRASHING into one another?
