Here’s some of the tips we used in our plan to help the 3 brothers lose that last ten pounds of fat in the last 10 days of the transformation that helped them get featured in Men’s Fitness magazine with their ripped abs.
Here are the guidelines we’ve come up with to lose the last 10 pounds.
NOTE: The brothers were only going to follow these guidelines for 10-14 days. So if you choose to use this plan, don’t follow it for more than 2 weeks.
That’s the maximum time for this advanced plan. After that, ease up on the restrictions a bit – and enjoy your advanced fat loss physique you’ve attained.
Advanced Nutrition Tips
1) Start your day immediately with 2 cups of water, 3 fish oil caps, and 20g of lean protein, as part of your normal breakfast.
2) Eat 1 cup of broccoli at lunch and dinner (in addition to what you normally had planned).
3) Eat only protein, almonds, and raw vegetables between meals.
4) Elimiate all pasta, rice, potatoes, and carbohydrates from a bag or a box.
5) Don’t go to bed full. Eat only a small protein snack in the evening to keep hunger at bay and to provide the body with protein before sleep.
6) Drink 6 cups of green tea per day (3 in AM, 3 after lunch)
Advanced Exercise Tips
1) Add 10 seconds to each interval
2) Add in some bodyweight circuits (10-20 minutes per day) done in the morning or evening (if you do your regular workout in the AM, do your bodyweight circuits after dinner; otherwise, do the bw circuits first thing in the AM, and then do your regular workout at lunch or later in the afternoon or evening)
3) Add one set to the first superset you do in each workout.
Use these strict tips for no more than 2 weeks before returning to normal exercise guidelines and carbohydrate intake.
Train hard but train safe and you’ll lose the last ten pounds.
