Article#1:
How to Lose the Most Fat and Build the Most Muscle in 30 Days
By Nick Nilsson.

A lot can happen in 30 days…

The dream of everyone who trains is to lose maximum fat and build maximum muscle in the shortest period of time possible. While it is definitely possible to both lose fat and gain muscle at the same time, in my experience, the best results come from concentrating on one major goal at a time.

Let me put it this way: to lose fat, you need a caloric deficit. To build muscle, you need a caloric surplus. If you try to do both at the same time, you may just remain exactly where you are!

So the question before us is - how do we maximize both fat loss and muscle gain, two very much opposing goals, in only 30 days?

It’s simple – we focus on both goals in the same program but not at the exact same time!

By alternating rapidly back and forth between reduced-calorie fat loss training and higher-calorie mass-oriented training, you can not only accomplish both goals at the same time, you can actually use the two opposing goals to feed on each other and send your results through the roof!

To illustrate my point, remember how quickly you gain weight when coming off a strict diet? Remember how quickly you lose weight when you start to diet and you haven’t been careful about what you’ve been eating? That’s your body rapidly adapting to a stress. One of the most powerful features of this switching back and forth is in the change itself - your body changes far quicker when you give it a powerful reason.

What is the result of this switching back and forth? Extremely rapid fat loss and extremely rapid muscle gain.

To maximize the effects of this switching, you must tailor your training, diet and supplementation towards your specific goal during that particular time. Proper manipulation of these factors will greatly enhance the body’s hormonal response to this program, which is the real key to maximizing your results.

For five days, we will target everything about your training and nutrition towards fat loss.

You will reduce your caloric intake below maintenance levels to promote fat burning.

You will reduce the rest periods between sets in your weight training to increase the intensity of the workload and boost the metabolism.

You will increase your training volume, performing more sets for each bodypart.

You will not push your body to muscular failure – pushing to failure can be too stressful to the muscles when on a reduced-calorie diet. Stop one rep short of this point.

You will include cardio training, preferably High Intensity Interval Training for best results, to burn calories and further boost your metabolism.

You will NOT take creatine during this time (I’ll explain why below).

It is best to follow a low-carb diet during this time for maximum effectiveness. Eating this way will be especially powerful when you switch to the next phase of the program.

After five days, your metabolism will be just starting to get used to the training and nutritional program you’re following. Now we’ll throw it a curveball and change everything!

For the next five days, you will be focusing your training, nutrition and supplementation completely on muscle building.

You will increase your caloric and protein intake to promote gains in muscle mass.

You will increase your rest periods in between sets to allow for more recovery and increased strength in your sets.

You will decrease your training volume, doing fewer sets but with greater intensity. This is the time to really push your muscles to the edge! You’re feeding them now, so don’t be shy about training them hard.

You will eliminate all cardio training in order to maximize muscle gain. Cardio training can burn calories that should be used for the muscle building process.

You will load creatine for the first three days of the muscle-gain phase. This will take advantage of and greatly enhance the flood of water and nutrients into the muscles.

You will NOT follow a low-carb diet during this time. We want lots of carbs to provide energy and promote insulin release (the body’s primary storage hormone). This insulin release will help shuttle protein and other nutrients into the muscles to help with building.

The body’s hormonal response to this huge change in training, nutrition and supplementation is tremendous. Sensing a feast after a famine, it will greedily take in all the nutrients it can and store them in the form of glycogen (for carbs), muscle mass (for protein) and fat (to some extent). Since you will only be doing this phase for 5 days, however, fat gains will be minimal so don’t be shy to eat!

It is important to note that you should eat a lot but you should eat clean – loading up on junk food will not give you the best results. You’ve got to provide your body with quality materials to rebuild with or you may not gain as much muscle and you may add too much fat.

After five days of this training, your metabolism will be cranking along, happily building muscle. Now we’ll pull the rug out and go right back into fat-loss training for five days. Since your body is used to getting more food and your metabolism is still moving fast, switching to fat-loss training at this time will immediately result in your body burning far more fat than if you were using a conventional fat loss program.

In 30 days, you will complete three rounds of this rapid-adaptation training. As you will soon experience, this switching back and forth between a short, targeted fat loss program and a short, targeted muscle-building program can have a tremendous and rapid impact on bodyfat and muscle mass levels.

What does this mean for you? It means you can lose fat faster and gain muscle faster, taking FULL advantage of your body’s natural reaction and rapid adaptation to massive change.

Think this program sounds good? You ain’t seen nothing yet...

This particular program is just a taste of what you’ll find in the full All-Star Trainers eBook from AtoZFitness. In addition to a detailed explanation of how to perform my program, including a day-by-day guide and set-by-set workouts to follow, you’ll also get the rapid fat-loss and muscle-building secrets of 11 of the most knowledgeable and respected trainers in the world, including Tom Venuto, Pete Sisco, David Grisaffi, Jeremy Markum, Phil Campbell, Christopher V.

The next 30 days are going to pass by whether you get this information or not. You could stick to your conventional programs and get slow (if any) results. How would you like to make these next 30 days the most productive of your entire training career?!

Article#3: How To Pack On Muscular Bodyweight FAST!!!
By Lee Hayward

I go to a gym regularly, I train hard, eat right,

but I am not getting any bigger. Why?

I get asked this question a lot, by both men and women who

are desperately trying to put some solid muscle mass on

their bones.

The key building muscle mass is to eat, eat, and eat some more. 99% of the people who call themselves hard gainers are really just under eaters. A lot of guys will skip breakfast, have a small lunch or snack during the day, then pig out and stuff themselves at dinner and think that they are eating a lot.

You need to eat something every 2 hours during the day to build maximum muscle mass. Eating frequently will make eating lots of food much easier.

When you want to build maximum muscle mass you should aim to eat 1.5 grams of protein and 25 calories per pound of bodyweight each day. Don't just stick to low fat "diet foods". Eat everything! You need lots of calories and it will be too difficult to eat a high calorie diet with just low fat foods.

Protein drinks are a great way to get extra protein and calories in your diet. I suggest that you use the big 5 pound containers of whey protein powder because these are the best value for your money.

When bulking up you should aim to eat at least 50 grams of protein and 1000 calories each morning for breakfast. This will start your day off right for maximum muscle building. It really doesn't matter what you eat, just as long as you eat. If you are in a hurry you can have a big protein drink, 2-3 slices of toast with peanut butter, and a piece of fruit. Or if you have the time you can cook up steak, eggs, hash browns, pancakes, etc.

For lunch at work or school you can cook foods such as chicken, beef, turkey, rice, pasta, etc. ahead of time and put them in a Tupperware container to reheat in the microwave. Make sandwiches such as tuna, roast beef, turkey, etc. Mix a protein shake and take it with you in a thermos or shaker bottle. Take a protein / meal replacement bar. Take fruits and vegetables i.e. apples, bananas, carrots, etc.

For dinner you can eat basically any meat and potatoes type of meal. Get some cook books and lean to make some good mouth watering meals. The tastier you make your meals the easier it will be to eat the volume of food necessary to build maximum muscle mass.

Good snacks to eat during day include dried fruit and nuts, cottage cheese, yoghurt, cereal and milk, fresh fruit, protein bars, and protein shakes, etc.

If you are really serious about making solid muscle gains, as well learning how to sculpt that raw mass into a lean and muscular physique. I highly recommend that you check out the: All Star Trainer's Secrets To Maximum Muscle Gain and Maximum Fat Loss In 30 Days!
