About this listen
When first entering the fitness world, I was amazed at the quantity of fitness equipment and machines. This machine will do one thing, but this other machine makes it easier. Take this magic pill and you'll have a beautiful body. For people, like me, who have caved into these fads and recognized their flaws, I wish to exploit and critique these fading fads so that you aren't another victim that experiences a failure like I did. I have been a victim to most fads, and I use the Fair Use Act to my advantage. I critique 25 fitness fads, using my person training experience, so you don't have to.

Story
Before beginning a muscle-building program, it is critical to understand its purpose. Muscle is simply the tissue in our body that provides us with the necessary power to move in various directions. As bodybuilders, our primary focus is on skeletal muscle. What exercises can we perform to improve our bodies and increase muscle? It is critical to remember that each individual has a unique body mass. Muscles must be exercised to be strengthened. This necessitates weight training. You can begin with modest weights and gradually increase them.

The bestselling fitness book for men who want to gain 25-35 pounds of lean muscle and lose as much fat or more in just 3-5 hours per week—and without giving up delicious foods or doing grueling workouts. Is Bigger Leaner Stronger a body building book that can help you pack on brain-shrinking amounts of muscle in 30 days flat? No. Is it a fitness nutrition book full of dubious diet and exercise “hacks” and “shortcuts” for melting belly fat faster than a roided hornet? Absolutely not.

It is widely believed that improving your appearance will lead to success in other areas; jobs, relationships, personal well-being. And while there are some studies which suggest this is the case - for example, because of the biases which are often expressed against heavier people at school and in the workplace - there are others who argue these effects don't last beyond first impressions. The truth is, devoting too much attention to appearances can damage a person's self-esteem.

Imagine this (go ahead, it's an easy one): You're bored with your workouts. Nothing's changing; you're not getting stronger or leaner or feeling better, and, heck, maybe you'll just take a layoff and see what happens. You know what happens. That two-week layoff lasts a year, that's what happens! Now consider this: Traffic was light and you're 15 minutes early for your dental cleaning appointment. You flip open your device and bring up your new copy of Before We Go. By the time the dental tech calls you, you've heard two chapters and are amped to get to the gym. Your mind is racing through the appointment, and it's all you can do to stay in that squeaky lounge chair.
