How to Get Ripped By Summer by:Rocko Sanders
With summer on the way it's time to kick back and relax at the beach or just hang out in the sun
. For the serious bodybuilder this means taking off your shirt and showing the world what you have been doing all winter long. If you are hiding your defined muscle with a layer of flab then nobody is going to ask you how they too can get ripped. Get ready to change and move into "ripped" mode.
Most people, when asked will tell you that you must decrease the weight you lift and increase the reps in order to get ripped fast.
But do you really want to know the truth about how to get ripped? Do you want to know the facts behind lightweight vs heavy weight ways of building your physique?
People are mostly wrong about the right way to get cut and ripped. Don't waste your time and slow your progress with this stupid way of thinking because there is no physical evidence for this type of weight training at all
There is no way to spot reduce any areas of our body. To say you can't spot reduce fat in any one area would be an understatement. Performing squats with light weights will not magically burn fat from your legs and make them appear harder and more ripped.
When you begin to workout concentrate on stimulating each muscle fiber to grow and only use those exercises that will bring into play as many of these fibers as is possible. Forget about the magic weightlifting routines that will target individual muscles and force them to grow and become more ripped.
Do you want to learn how to really get ripped? Part of the solution is to train as hard as you can and begin using compound exercises to workout a larger part of your body.
To define each muscle in your body and get that ripped physique you must lower the overall fat levels in your body. There are two ways you can do this effectively.
1) No Diet....No Ripped.....
Start eating six small meals a day spread out and reduce your caloric intake to 15 times your total overall body weight. This increased metabolic state will keep you burning fat all day and all night even while you are resting . You have to eliminate simple sugars and saturated fats and learn to eat healthy foods like carbohydrates that have a low glycemic level. It's also necessary to eat a lot of high quality protein at least five to six times a day. The rule of thumb is to only eat 30 grams of protein at any one time because your body will have a difficult time assimilating anymore than that. Also make sure that you drink plenty of water to hydrate and lubricate your muscles and connecting tissues. It's all about the diet......I love my muscle building diet
2) Get really ripped by doing your cardio differently.
Forget about the age old methods of cardio workouts of the 30 to 45 minutes of moderate intensity. In order to get the most out of your cardio workouts and to minimize the muscle loss associated with a fat burning routine you need to focus on shorter and higher intensity cardio workouts. Stop doing the elliptical machine and start doing some wind sprints, have you ever seen a skinny sprinter? This is a proven way to increase your metabolic rate and continue burning fat while you are at rest.
Until you know what level of definition you are looking for my suggestion would be to do 4 high intensity cardio workouts a week.
It couldn't get any easier than that!. Do you want to learn how to really get ripped? Don't worry about using high reps and lightweight and start worrying about your diet and the intensity level of your cardio training. It is a fool who keeps doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
To get ripped just try the following:
1) Use compound exercises to build more muscle fibers in a wider part of your body for intense muscular gains.
2) Lose the body fat that is hiding the muscle by changing your diet and cardio intensity.
End of story!
