Okay.... first of all this is a blog that Vic started at the beginning of his fitness journey so there is a LOT of missing content. Somehow his commitment to blogging about his experience deteriorated....Buuuut it's better than if he had quit the actual fitness portion of it!
Then we had been talking for awhile about using it as "our" blog to chronicle our individual transformations, but that has yet to occur. Mostly all due to my trepidation of posting pictures of my "before" state, and not knowing what the end result would be. It was scary to think I'd fail with the world watching.
Sooo, I guess I can commandeer it for awhile on this journey with you. My fellow Xtreme Fat Loss Diet-goers. I am going to posting some good info that I found useful, and I hope it's helpful to you as well.
Look forward to seeing some after pics, if ya'll ain't skeered ;)
TOP 10 Reasons The Xtreme
Fat Loss Diet Works
*****
===================
1. Every Day Is A "Mini-Challenge"
====================
One day you're CHEATING, the next day you're FASTING, the next
day your doing ONLY protein shakes... it's SO SO easy to stay
focused on one "mini-challenge" at a time.
=============
2. It's ONLY 25-Days
=============
Many diet plans last "12-weeks" or more and that's just too
daunting for some people to wrap their minds around. 25-days
is a perfect amount of time to get serious and dedicated.
===============
2. You Can Build Muscle
On Your Cheat Days
===============
I trained my weaker body parts, biceps and shoulders on
these days and experienced more fullness and definition
at the end of four cycles because of the extreme caloric
surplus that occurs on this day. I could actually FEEL my
muscles stretching and filling out more and more after
each cheat meal.
====================
3. You Can Lose Up To 2 Pounds
Of Fat In ONE Day On Your FAST Days
====================
This DOES require you to workout on your fast days and I
will note that i sometimes did 2-3 workouts on my fast
days! Yes, you read that correct. However, your body is
so topped off with glycogen, amino acids and triglycerides,
from the cheat day, your body has LOADS of energy to train
as normal in a FASTED state. Believe it or not, my workout
intensity and energy is just the same. You'll see for yourself.
=======================
4. You Lose 3-5 Pounds EVERY 5-Days
=======================
Do you know how motivating that is? Every 5-days,
Flavia and I would step on the scale and see our weight
get lower and lower and our abs got more ripped and
defined faster than ever. We COULD NOT WAIT to get
to Punta Cana and do our photo shoot. Plus, all the fat
was coming right off our lower abs (trouble spots for
both of us).
========================
5. The Compliments And Stares You Get
Will Keep you EXTRA Motivated
=========================
Even though we did our transformation with Joel's plan
in November, Flavia was getting compliments on her arms
every day at work. When I trained in the gym, you could
see my six pack through my white Under Armour shirt
and when people were looking at me - I knew what they
were starring at. Every 5-days you capture more and
more momentum to keep you pushing.
===================
6. Every 5-Days You Learn
Something New About Your Body
==================
Trust me, I was a huge skeptic before I attempted this
plan. Training on my fast days was really scary because
I was afraid of losing muscle. Joel reassured me to
TRUST the program and the science and I did that.
I actually gained 1 or 2 pounds of lean muscle over the
21-days - probably because of the massive caloric surplus
I took in on the Cheat Days. I learned that "losing muscle"
is over rated if you have the right plan.
==================
7. Every 5-Days Your Confidence
And Belief In Yourself SOARS
==================
This one is from Flavia. She told me her mentality of
herself completely changed and she gained so much
self-esteem, will power and belief in herself after these
21-days. The Protein Only Depletion days were probably
the toughest day but knowing you have the Cheat Day
the next day keeps you true to the program.
=================
8. It Acts SUPER SUPER FAST
=================
Bottom line: we looked good in late October but we were
not ready for our photo shoot in late November. If you
need to be ready for a special event in the next 25-days,
then I have no better solution then Joel's plan.
============
9. It's SO SO SIMPLE
============
As I mentioned, each day you have a new goal which keeps
you focused and looking forward to being successful one
day at a time. How hard is it to Fast ONE DAY every 5-days?
How hard could it be to have protein shakes one day every
day days? How hard is it to eat your favorite foods EVERY 5-days
and be strict on the others? Once you study the 5-day strategic
plan, you're laughing.
============
10. And It's RIGHT In
Time For Summer
============
Enough said. 25 days from now you can be poolside rocking a brand new body. That's where I'ma be.
