How to get shredded

[wave_length]

For anyone who wants to get ripped and never has achieved it since:

You only need to follow 3 simple rules:

- eat enough protein (about 1g / lb of lean body mass a day).
- perform intense anaerobic training.
- reduce calories to lose about 1-2 lbs a week.

I guarantee anybody who does that for long enough to get ripped to shredds. Forget about books, fitness trainers, and "gurus". They are all bull****ters who want to steal your money. The whole industry is just a bunch of liars and crooks.

Hey,

I posted this question in your original thread in the weight loss section today, maybe you can answer it here:

Hi,

I just read Wavelength Guide to Cutting v1.0 and have a few questions.
I'm currently at ~185 lbs, 17 or 18% bf and want to get cut (visible abs - hopefully 10%bf) by summer (July or August).

- How many months before hand should I start if I follow this simple method?
- How do I calculate the amount of calories I should eat (I guess its a bit less than maintainence, but how much?)?
- Do I start cutting right away or do I need a period to slowly adjust my caloric intake to a lower level?

[Fuh_Q]

Can you elaborate more plz. What about macros, simple carbs etc?

[superdunkaroos]

you do realise you don't need 1gram per lb of body weight

waste of protein/ unecessary stress on liver

Sorry man, answered in the main thread.
PM me anytime if I ever miss a question.

Irrelevant except for a certain amount of protein.

you do realise you don't need 1gram per lb of body weight

waste of protein/ unecessary stress on liver

As mentioned above, I recommend 1g / lb LBM. However, I agree that most people will probably still be able to yield (close to) optimal results with less. It's just an easy way which fits all.

thats not what Bigbeezy said

Who's that?

I tried 1g/kg and my body composition suffered. That's just my experience, others may differ. My recommendation is on the lower end anyway if you compare it to most "bodybuilding diets".

Op your kinda 2 shredded, i think itll be hard to maintain being THAT lean all year round, besides Alot of people want to get Big and Shredded (or atleast hope to), not just shredded

I agree and I'm not the best example of "big and shredded", for various reasons. However, the rules don't change between "shredded" and "big and shredded", other than maybe you won't really be able to achieve the latter without drugs anyway.

I prefer Amphetamines and sitting on ma butt.

Good ****, I wish people wouldn't make things so complicated. Fundamentally, losing weight is sooooo simple it's stupid. There's only ONE thing you need to do and you're GUARANTEED to lose weight. Just consume less calories than you expend. Regardless of all crazy supplements you're taking, kind of training your doing, complicated macro computing you're doing, if you eat less calories than you burn you're guaranteed to lose weight. It's that simple.

But that's just on a fundamental level, obviously working out is paramount, but people get too caught up in the training and supps that they don't realize they just need to eat less.

[iLoLd]

no point in looking shredded unless you have developed mature muscles underneath to reveal, which takes years and years of bodybuilding, and by then you'd already know how to become shredded because you'd be friends with other bodybuilders who compete in amateur competitions.
