How To Look Like hercules
So this guy emails me the other day, asking me questions about my Body Armor muscle building workouts.
He wants to know:
-why is there intense conditioning included in workouts that are supposed to build muscle mass?
-will Body Armor help him build a V-taper like the legendary Steve Reeves (famous for his roles as Hercules in the 1950s)
Well, first of all, the conditioning is included b/c Body Armor isnt about just getting you big. Being big is cool and all, but if you cant move and arent athletic at all, then who gives a damn? (Nobody wants to fit the typical all show and no go bodybuilder stereotype, do they?)
And ironically, it actually ties into his next question as well.
See, the guy went on to ask what kinda stuff was included for the side deltoids, lats, etc all stuff to help him improve his V-taper (wide shoulders down to a narrow waist). I told him he was barking up the wrong tree.
If he wanted an aesthetic V-taper, the smartest thing he could do was do the intense conditioning, and lose some weight.
Needless to say, he was emailing me back pretty quick, thinking I was nuts.
Something like a V-taper is all about proportion. Your shoulders dont need to actually be wide they just have to look wide when compared to your waist.. So, to do that, you could:
-build super-wide shoulders and lats
or
-lose the fat around your midsection and make your waist smaller
Which one do you think is easier (not to mention quicker)? Yeah, the second one. Now, I sound it might sound kinda strange that if you want to look bigger, you should try and lose weight. But think about this for a second - think of the physiques of Lee Labrada, Frank Zane, or Ed Corney. Then think of guys like Dorian Yates, Ronnie Coleman, or Jay Cutler.
The former were all much smaller guys - many times even walking around at less than 200 pounds. Yet, they all had much better V-tapers than the latter guys. Don't believe? Go do some google images searches and find out for yourself.
So try to lose some weight - then when you add good muscle building programs in there (like is in Body Armor), youre building your shoulders and lats wider *while* making your waist smaller.
Best of both worlds.
