What Does It Mean To Get Ripped For Real?
If you are here, you probably want to do something about your physical appearance.
Maybe you want to reach that coveted state of "being ripped" - where your muscle details stand out in bold relief.
Many people associate this state with body building or weight lifting, but with the current attention on physical fitness and appearance, the term has become part of the mainstream vernacular.
I mean, who wouldn't want to have a full set of six-pack abs? That clear separation of abdominal muscles is the trademark of all really physically fit people.
Let's be real here.
Many people WANT to do something about their appearance, but few actually get to the point where they actually DO something about it.
On the other hand, some are not sure what to do about it, or they've tried various programs and failed - so have just given up.
I am not trying to be negative, but let's look at some facts here.
In 2010, the facts are that 68% of Americans were overweight (at least slightly overweight - up to 30 pounds over their ideal weight).
The facts also show that 30% of Americans are obese.
I don't know about you, but I have noticed a lot more people seem to be overweight today.
Take a look around next time you're near a lot of people and make your own evaluation.
Too many people are overweight, and it's not getting better - it's getting worse.
Much worse.
So where does this all lead - and how can you go from where you are now to that lean muscle popping ripped condition? Well, the first thing that you have to understand is that to really get to that totally fit appearance, you have to lower your body fat.
You can exercise all you want, and build up a lot of muscle, but if your body fat level stays the same - you will not get that sculpted look you are going for.
Very low body fat is the actual key to getting that ripped appearance.
Read that again - as that is the essential element in achieving your goal.
The question now is, how do you get to a very low body fat condition? How do you take a fit body and transform it into a fantastically sculpted specimen that stops everyone in their tracks? Well, there is one thing that is more responsible for a low body fat level than any other single factor.
That thing is nutrition! Don't get me wrong here.
You are going to have to work out and build muscle.
I mean, come on, if you don't have any muscle to stand out - you'll never get to a ripped condition no matter how good your nutrition is.
Another thing - I am not just talking about "going on a diet" NO! I am talking about getting the right foods in your body to build rock-hard muscle, and to also rev up your metabolism so that fat just melts off.
This is not an overnight transformation that we are talking about here.
Anyone that tells you that you can "lose 20 pounds and be super buff in the next 10 days" is lying to you.
It's just not going to happen.
Don't fall for that crap.
This is going to take work.
This is going to take some grit - but it absolutely can be done.
Given the right nutrition, the right physical training, knowledge and equipment - with some dedication on your part - and you can get ripped for real.
Know one thing though - YOU can do this.
You can make it to your goals.
You just need the right guidance to get there - and you will get that here - so cheer up.
You're going to be so confident and proud of yourself when you make it to your goals that you'll be the envy of everyone that you meet.
It's going to be great! Eat Right, Train Right, Get Ripped.
