No nonsense. Take your body from where it is now to exactly where you want it to be, as effectively and efficiently as possible. Welcome to The Body Transformation Blueprint. Your honest, definitive, step- by-step guide for building muscle, burning fat and maximizing your overall health, strength and well-being. With the endless flood of contradictory misinformation and marketing gimmicks the fitness industry has become so overrun by these days, most aspiring trainees have been left more confused than ever when it comes to achieving their health and physique goals. Everywhere you look there’s the next fancy workout system, fad diet or breakthrough supplement of the month, all claiming to have the “proven secret” to rapid muscle growth and fat loss. Basic hard work, patience and consistency have been overtaken by an endless barrage of worthless “get-fit-quick” schemes, all created for no other purpose than to line the pockets of the bodybuilding and weight loss marketers behind them. In fact, even those who genuinely are trying to put out useful training and nutrition information often mislead their audiences without realizing it. The Internet makes it easy for anyone to jump online and post any article or video they want, regardless of how truthful or accurate it is. In reality, the majority of so-called “online fitness gurus” are not legitimate experts and lack the knowledge and experience necessary to provide you with the proper guidance. At best, following this information leaves you with modest results while causing you to waste a significant amount of unnecessary time, effort and money in the process. At worst, you’re left with no results at all, possibly even at the expense of your health and safety. Bad information simply gets passed around from person to person like a multiplying virus, with everyone repeating and regurgitating the same lies they've been told. Unfortunately, this makes it damn near impossible for the average fitness hopeful to know who to follow and who to trust. Well, the good news is that it all ends here. And it all starts here as well. The start of a brand new body, and a brand new life. Today, we’re putting behind all the useless fluff and filler you’ve been fed on every random website, YouTube video, forum and social media page out there, and starting fresh. 7 No more worthless gimmicks, silly fads and blatant lies… What you’re getting here is the real, no B.S truth about achieving your ideal physique in a way that is effective, safe and sustainable over the long term. You’re here right now because you’re motivated and ready to make a serious change, and The Body Transformation Blueprint will equip you with all of the tools and information you need to make it happen. The guidelines found within this manual are based on the most up-to-date scientific research in the areas of proper training, nutrition and supplementation, combined with over 15 years of my own practical, real-world bodybuilding and fitness experience. Since its release, this system has continually improved and evolved, and prides itself on delivering a comprehensive yet easy-to-follow approach that anyone can understand and implement successfully. No matter how difficult or frustrating your fitness journey has potentially been up until now, there is a proven, reliable, step-by-step method available to finally get the results you’re after. Contrary to what you may have been led to believe by every “expert” out there trying to hawk the latest breakthrough workout or diet plan, getting into great shape does not need to be an overly complicated process. It does require time, effort and patience to get there, but the actual methods themselves are fairly straightforward once you really understand how it all works. You don’t need to dedicate multiple hours in the gym 5+ days a week to a highly intricate, excessively complex workout routine… You don’t need to slave away to a boring, tedious nutrition plan and deprive yourself of entire food groups, macronutrients or the foods you love most… You don’t need to spend boatloads of cash on expensive pills, powders and other supplements… And you don’t need to abandon your social life and hobbies or revolve every waking hour around your fitness plan in order to make outstanding progress. All it really takes is the ongoing application of a few key training, nutrition and supplementation principles, all of which will eventually transform into simple, routine habits once you get the hang of them. The initial stages of your fitness program will certainly require some hard work and discipline as you slowly learn the ropes and get things off the ground, but once you’ve built that initial momentum, it’s just a matter of basic consistency from there on out. 8 If you’re still a complete beginner at this, you might look at the length of this manual and feel a bit overwhelmed. If building muscle and burning fat is in fact a relatively simple process, why is there so much information included here? Well, unlike most other programs out there that simply tell you what to do without any real reasoning behind it, the goal here is to provide a full explanation of both what to do and why you’re doing it. Rather than just handing you some random workout plan and diet and saying “go do this”, I’m going to equip you with a complete understanding of how the muscle building and fat loss process truly works from the ground up. This is not just another “12 week program” to be blindly followed before hopping over to another program, and then another. The Body Transformation Blueprint will lay out all of the information necessary so that you yourself will know how to structure a proper training and nutrition plan on your own without needing to constantly rely on others moving forward. It’s the difference between merely handing you fish and teaching you how to fish. Remember, building a great physique is not some sort of “quick fix” or overnight process – it’s an ongoing lifestyle that you’ll be adopting for many years to come. Spending a simple week or two digesting the information in this manual is a very small time investment in exchange for a highly valuable set of skills you’ll be potentially applying for the rest of your life. You’re literally getting all of the most important principles I’ve learned in over 15 years of dedicated research and firsthand experience, all condensed into a simple, structured format that you can absorb in just a tiny fraction of that time. This will put you lightyears ahead of the game in comparison to the average person out there and will hugely increase your chances for success both in the short and long term. (As a side note, for those who are very eager to begin and would rather just get started on the actual program straight away, a “Quick-Start Guide” is available in the member’s area for this purpose. That guide includes all of the concrete, “actionable” training, nutrition and supplementation guidelines in one place without all of the additional information and detailed explanations behind them.
