What if I told you that, without even moving your abs at all, you could get one of the most intense ab workouts you’ve ever experienced? The first question that I’m sure pops into your head is “how the heck can you develop your abs without moving the abs at all?” Well, I’m going to tell you exactly how this is done and believe me, the first time you try this exercise, you’ll never look at your ab workout the same way again! You see, oftentimes, the best movements for the abs involve very little bending or flexing of the trunk at all. This is especially true of the exercises that target the deeper core muscles (the transversus and the obliques), which are responsible for stabilizing and transferring power through the core. The exercise you’re going to learn here is going to demand great things from your deep core muscles, so start light and work your way up!

Why are bodybuilders infatuated with protein? Bodybuilders are infamous for their love affair with protein. The way iron-pumpers see it, muscle is protein, so they associate eating more dietary protein with gaining more muscle. Devouring egg whites by the dozen, meat by the pound and protein powder by the bucketful is the norm for hard training physique athletes. But is all this carnivorism really necessary? Why the infatuation with eating huge amounts of protein? Are bodybuilders correct in their habitual practice of pounding down the protein or is this immoderation unfounded? To answer these questions, it is first necessary obtain a solid understanding of what protein is and how it is used in the body. Only then can we objectively look at the protein consumption practices of bodybuilders and compare them to what the scientific evidence says in order to make some sensible and productive recommendations.

The Superset is a very simple concept...basically, you just do two exercises back-to-back, with no rest inbetween! A quick example of this is doing a barbell curl then going directly into a cable curl. Sound simple? It definitely is. But there are many different combinations and ways to use the Superset to make it an incredibly powerful training technique. Before I get into specific combinations, you need to know what, generally speaking, makes a Superset more effective than two regular sets done with rest inbetween. There are three major reasons why Supersets are so effective for training (and there are many more specific reasons that apply only to specific Superset types): 1. Supersets increase Lactic Acid production, which helps boost Growth Hormone (GH) levels in the body. The body responds to the reduced pH (increased acidity) in the body from the production of Lactic Acid by secreting GH. GH is a powerful fat loss and muscle building hormone. 2. Supersets are time-efficient. By doing sets back-to-back, you reduce your total workout time while still doing the same amount of total work. If you're in a hurry in your workout, Supersets can get you out of the gym faster. 3. Different Superset combinations can help increase muscle fiber activation. Essentially, this means you can use specific exercise combinations to increase the intensity of work on a specific muscle, helping to develop it faster.

The Secrets of Using Protein to Get BIGGER, STRONGER and FASTER! Are you an athlete who wants to play like a pro? Do you want to be bigger, stronger, faster, and have more endurance? If this is what you want and aspire to, then consuming more protein in your daily diet may be the ticket to accomplishing your goals. I’ve heard from hundreds of professional, Olympic, college, and high school athletes who have expressed their desire to get bigger, stronger, faster and have more endurance. Often, when I propose that the solution may be just as simple as eating more protein, many get dismayed and feel that I’m giving them a blown-off response.

What is Anator-p70? Anator-p70 is the first and only muscle gene activator ever created. Anator-p70 turns on the three major musclebuilding master genetic regulators, mTOR, PKB, and p70S6K.

These two proteins are needed for both contraction and muscle size. Nothing available compares to Anator-p70.

Bodybuilding is all about the food!!!! by Daniel Rocha Over the past month I have received many emails concerning the same thing... is my nutrition ok for muscle gain and fat loss? Now first off let me set the record straight by saying that you can not change muscle into fat and vice versa. So if anyone tells you that you changed fat into muscle, say Thanks and never consult with that person again. You can gain more muscle and lose more fat at the same time. But again most do not know how to do that. I can admit to all that when I first started bodybuilding I use to listen to the local big guy and he would tell that to get big you have to eat big. So I did. I was the VIP customer at Burger King. Damn those whoppers were good. But the end result was that I gained fat and very little muscle. I won my first open class contest as a lightweight competitor (151lbs). Do the math I had to lose 50lbs of fat to get to the end result 151lbs of lean muscle tissue.
