Jack Owoc, VPX CEO and Chief Scientifc Offcer.
ETHYL ESTER(EX) TECHNOLOGY INSURES MAXIMUM ABSORPTION AND
UPTAKE NO-Shotgun

contains the key amino acids (mentioned below),


creatine and other radical compound innovations that are engineered with Ethyl
Ester pharmaceutical delivery enhancements. This means that these important
muscle building compounds enter into the bloodstream AND THE MUSCLE almost
100% intact. NO-Shotgun's

Ethyl Ester (EX) Technology is far superior to regular


Amino Acids, Creatine, and Arginine where you might only absorb 13% to 37%
and only 4% might actually get into the muscle! This special and highly advanced
EX technology shuttles all NO-Shotgun

compounds across the muscle cell


membrane where they can cause explosive growth!
1) BCAAEX

(Branched Chain Amino Acid EthyI Ester) Matrix x Another frst in


the exclusive array of compounds found only in NO-Shotgun!

BCAAEX

are the
Ethyl Ester version of these key muscle protein synthesizing amino acids. BCAA's
have been shown to promote lean muscle mass by increasing protein synthesis and
nitroJen retention in muscle tissue. Studies have shown that subjects who consume
BCAA's while dieting have greater levels of lean muscle mass retention. And,
another study showed that BCAA consumption had a powerful nutrient partitioning
effect resulting in rapid fat loss in the abdominal and thigh regions, two areas of
concern for many men and womenv in regards to fat loss. Consequently, this makes
BCAAEX/NO-Shotgun

a prime choice for contest prep or any other intense dieting.


NO-Shotgun

also contains the potent Arginase enzyme inhibitor, L-Nor Valine! This
novel Nor Branched Chain Ethyl Ester Amino maximizes the active life of the AEX

(Arginine Ethyl Ester) by preventing the body from destroying AEX

and allows it to
increase GH and Nitric Oxide for extended periods of time.
2) Beta-AIanine EthyI Ester HCI (BAEX
"
) Another compound found only in
NO-Shotgun

! This beta amino acid is also sometimes referred to as carnosine.


Research shows that it supports lean muscle mass and can enhance muscle fber
synthesis. This nutrient actually helps create carnosine in muscle tissue. Carnosine
is mainly found in muscle tissue and can help buffer H+ (normalizing PH) so we can
exercise longer and harder-basically; it helps delay fatigue. Research shows that the
higher the carnosine levels in muscle, the greater the power. Regular carnosine is not
absorbed well,l so the BAEX

is used to maximize carnosine production in muscle


tissue. A recent study showed that just 4 weeks of Beta-Alanine supplementation
signifcantly increased lean muscle mass. More reps and less fatigue equal muscle
growth! Beta-Alanine Ethyl Ester rocks!
3) Creatine EthyI Ester HCI (CEX

) We know that creatine is the most proven


and potent supplement to increase lean muscle mass and strength. This specifc
"EX form takes creatine to a whole new level! CEX

is a membrane permeable
form of creatine that can enter muscle cells without bothering with the regular
creatine transporters like sugar etc. This means up to 98% can enter the muscle
compared to regular creatine where only 4% makes it into the muscle! CEX

does not cause bloating, cramping, or stomach discomfort because it doesn't sit
in the stomach it gets into muscle tissue fast to support the more production of ATP for massive
intra-cellular volumization, muscle size, power, and strength!
4) L-GIutamine EthyI Ester HCI (GEX

) This powerful amino acid is the most abundant


amino acid found in human muscle and plasma. GEX

addresses the
major Glutamine absorption problem by allowing it to be maximally
absorbedas much as 80% of regular L-glutamine cannot be
absorbed by the gut. L-glutamine can help increase muscle
"fullness, increase protein synthesis (the making of
muscle), and decrease catabolism (the breakdown of
protein). t can also boost immune function, boost GH
levels, enhance glycogen re-synthesis, and boost
anti-infammatory cell function. New research shows
glutamine is highly correlated with glutathione
(the muscles most powerful antioxidant) and can
help protect muscles from damage. According
to some very interesting research out of the
Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences,
glutamine concentration is 10% higher in type
muscle fbers vs. VA fbers. Type muscle
fbers have a large disposition for growth
and are used mainly in weight training. After
exercise, the same researchers showed a 45
% decrease in glutamine in both fber types.
This is why GEX

is critical for muscle growth


and serious pumps.
5) MethyI Hydroxy ChaIcone PoIymer (MHCP)
This compound is found only in NO-Shotgun

!
MHCP improves cellular glucose utilization and
increases the sensitivity of insulin receptors in
laboratory studies. Research conducted at owa State
University and published in 2001 concluded that MHCP is
a super effective insulin mimetic! Since insulin helps transport
amino acids and glucose into muscle tissue, the other ingredients
in Shotgun are further amplifed. AND, you will get fuller muscle pumps
due to the increased glycogen storage! Professional bodybuilders inject insulin
because insulin makes you HUGE. n fact, insulin is more anabolic than testosterone, steroids
and GH (Growth Hormone). MHCP is as close to real insulin as it gets.
thyI Ester HCI or AEX

mechanism
boosting nitric oxide (NO) production
mplifes the effects of all muscle
ng compounds. Boosting nitric oxide
muscle tissue can have many anabolic
ffects including increased nutrient
ransport and vasodilation (increased
blood fow which leads to massive
muscle pumps!). Arginine can even
boost natural Growth Hormone (GH)
vels as seen in a study published in
ournal, Medicine and Science in Sports
ercise. A published study conducted
ospital in Baltimore showed that two
nine supplementation in healthy, older
ased serum GF-1 (insulin-like growth
created an improved and positive
ating a more anabolic state for growth).

"fullness, increase protein synthesis (the making of
muscle), and decrease catabolism (the breakdown of
protein). t can also boost immune function, boost GH
levels, enhance glycogen re-synthesis, and boost
anti-infammatory cell function. New research shows
glutamine is highly correlated with glutathione
(the muscles most powerful antioxidant) and can
help protect muscles from damage. According
to some very interesting research out of the
Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences,
glutamine concentration is 10% higher in type
muscle fbers vs. VA fbers. Type muscle
fbers have a large disposition for growth
and are used mainly in weight training. After
exercise, the same researchers showed a 45
% decrease in glutamine in both fber types.
This is why GEX

is critical for muscle growth


and serious pumps.
5) MethyI Hydroxy ChaIcone PoIymer (MHCP)
This compound is found only in NO-Shotgun

!
MHCP improves cellular glucose utilization and
increases the sensitivity of insulin receptors in
laboratory studies. Research conducted at owa State
University and published in 2001 concluded that MHCP is
a super effective insulin mimetic! Since insulin helps transport
amino acids and glucose into muscle tissue, the other ingredients
in Shotgun are further amplifed. AND, you will get fuller muscle pumps
due to the increased glycogen storage! Professional bodybuilders inject insulin
because insulin makes you HUGE. n fact, insulin is more anabolic than testosterone, steroids
and GH (Growth Hormone). MHCP is as close to real insulin as it gets.
thyI Ester HCI or AEX

mechanism
boosting nitric oxide (NO) production
mplifes the effects of all muscle
ng compounds. Boosting nitric oxide
muscle tissue can have many anabolic
ffects including increased nutrient
ransport and vasodilation (increased
blood fow which leads to massive
muscle pumps!). Arginine can even
boost natural Growth Hormone (GH)
vels as seen in a study published in
ournal, Medicine and Science in Sports
ercise. A published study conducted
ospital in Baltimore showed that two
nine supplementation in healthy, older
ased serum GF-1 (insulin-like growth
created an improved and positive
ating a more anabolic state for growth).

s the Offcial Record Setting Fat Burner used


by three Hollywood Florida Law enforcement Offcials to
lose 127 pounds of Body Fat in 12 Weeks!
REDLINE

doesn't destroy muscle like other fat burners.


REDLINE

is the only fat burner that backs these claims


by undoctored real time before-and-after video footage. A
fresh approach to the unscrupulous companies out there who
use Photoshop

to alter photos and have models stick their

stomachs out in before pictures.


n less than fve minutes you'll feel the fast acting power of
REDLNE's

fat incinerating and energy producing compounds

racing through your blood. Just think, when have you ever
been guaranteed results in fve minutes? REDLNE

y
was the

unanimous fat burner of choice for the team who set the 127
pound fat loss record. n fact, they were so impressed with
REDLNE

that the team name for the record setting winners

of the 911 Fitness Challenge was, Team Redline! For in depth


info, log onto RedlineRush.com.
REDLNE

is the only matrix ever developed to shred fat through

the shivering response in the body. By shivering the body burns huge
amounts of stored body fat for energy in an effort to keep the body
warm. That's not all! n addition to shivering, you'll also be sweating
up a thermogenic storm. The combined mechanisms of these two
processes results in unparalleled fat loss! Redline

was designed to

attack fat in the abdominal, butt/lower body and back trouble spots
that usually determine winners from losers. REDLNE

is the frst and

only award winning and record setting fat-burner available in both


Liquid Capsules and an RTD (Ready to Drink). REDLNE

is known

exclusively as the all-inclusive fat burning formula because it not


only works by activating all of your body's fat burning receptor sites,
it also works on the most important fat loss organ-your brain!
The brain is the most important factor in fat loss yet, today's poorly
designed fat burners fail to address this master control center. As the
most prolifc developer of body-altering

supplementation on the
planet, am the only researcher to address all of the above factors in
the fat loss equation with Redline

. My dad always said that, n this


world you are measured from the shoulders up. t was based on this
principle that Redline

was developed. The brain controls the body

and this is why Redline

starts working on the brain frst by enhancing

mood via dopamine and serotonin. Without controlling these potent


brain chemicals you'll always lack the self control it takes to eliminate
junk and other foods that destroy the way you look and feel.
Because REDLNE

solved this biological puzzle: Mind X Body =

extreme fat loss, REDLNE

was used to induce a 127 pound fat loss


record! Not only that, Team Redline

also gained 82 pounds of lean

muscle which shows that Redline

is the only truly proven product

that will allow you to gain muscle while losing body fat. Other fat
burners are notorious for destroying lean muscle tissue--sure you lose
weight on these inadequate fat burners, but who wants to look like a
crack addict? Fat is burned inside of the muscle so, when you destroy
muscle you also destroy your ability to burn body fat.
For this reason, you must build muscle for long term fat loss. Women
want to look tone and tone is simply the absence of fat and the
presence of muscle. This is very important because most women don't
understand this concept and have been lead to believe that muscle
will make them look bigger-actually the opposite is true.
VPX was the frst company ever to address activating 1, 2, 3,
alpha-1, alpha-2 and alpha-3 fat receptors simultaneously with
a product so powerful it is now banned. However, we took this
same concept and formula base to create Redline

. This enables
you to use Redline

for a multi-factorial assault on body fat and

experience geometric fat loss far more powerful than any other fat-
burning product available. Redline

has a dozen advancements that

will provide you with fat burning and energy beyond your wildest
imagination.

VPX was the frst company ever to address activating 1, 2, 3,

experience geometric fat loss far more powerful than any other fat-
burning product available. Redline

has a dozen advancements that

will provide you with fat burning and energy beyond your wildest
imagination.

to represent us. They had to possess not only great looks and a
great physique, but also live the ftness lifestyle and teach oth-
ers about that lifestyle. There are so many individuals out there
who ft that bill. So, choosing two was diffcult.
The frst place winners will be featured on our cover, and
we will also feature some of the runners up in the mag. I want
to thank everyone who entered. If you did not win this time,
we will be starting our 2007 search next month, so please try
again. If you didnt enter, then try this year. We will have lots
of prizes and great opportunities .
Many thanks to our judges and our title sponsor VPX,
along with our other sponsors, Muscleology and MHP. If you are at the Arnold Fitness Expo, stop by
the VPX booth and meet the winners, where they will be starting their 1 year VPX sponsorship.
A
n elderly Chinese woman had two large
pots, each hung on the ends of a pole
which she carried across her neck.
One of the pots had a crack in it while the other
pot was perfect and always delivered a full por-
tion of water.
At the end of the long walks from the stream to
the house, the cracked pot arrived only half full.
For a full two years this went on daily, with the
woman bringing home only one and a half pots of
water.
Of course , the perfect pot
was proud of its accom-
plishments.
But the poor cracked pot
was ashamed of its own
imperfection, and miser-
able that it could only do
half of what it had been
made to do.
After two years of what
it perceived to be bitter failure, it spoke to the
woman one day by the stream
I am ashamed of myself, because this crack in
my side causes water to leak out all the way back
to your house.
The old woman smiled, Did you notice that
Blessed are the fexible, for they shall
not be bent out of shape.
there are fowers on your side of the path, but not
on the other pots side?
Thats because I have always known about your
faw, so I planted fower seeds on your side of
the path, and every day while we walk back, you
water them.
For two years I have been able to pick these
beautiful fowers to decorate the table. Without
you being just the way you are, there would not
be this beauty to grace the house.
Each of us has our own unique faw.
But its the cracks and faws we each
have that make our lives together so
very interesting and rewarding.
Youve just got to take each person
for what they are and look for the
good in them. Remember to appreci-
ate all the different people in your
life!
There is a lot of good out there.
There is a lot of good in you! Dont be afraid of
your faws. Acknowledge them, and you too can
be the cause of beauty. Know that in our weak-
ness we fnd our strength. Every day we look in
the mirror, we can wonder what fowers well un-
knowingly be watering that day.

R
esponse: Abso-
l ut el y! Los i ng
those few pounds
would greatly help
to reshape your derriere.
Many people are under the
impression that if they work
with weights somehow the
fat will magically disappear. Unfortunately,
this isnt true. You work a muscle to be taut,
sinewy, and hard, but if there is a layer of
fat covering the muscle, nobody sees it.
Thats why proper nutrition coupled with
exercise is really the best defense for los-
ing fat weight.
Training buttocks is not gender specifc,
therefore men interested in shaping their
glutes will beneft from these suggestions
as well. Some things to consider:
1. Your genetics. This is out of our control
and the number one factor in determining
your shape. Therefore its important to
accept your body type and be at peace
with its imperfections. Certainly you can
always improve on what you have, but if
youre an endomorph looking to be an
ectomorph, youve set yourself up to be
continually disappointed and dissatisfed.
Learn to be at peace with your body type.
(Note: This is easier said than done but far
from impossible.)
2. One fact that is true for everyone: You
have to begin where you are. In other
words, if youve been inactive for a greater
part of your life and have piled on twenty,
thirty, or forty pounds it will take you lon-
ger to achieve your results. Rome wasnt
built in a day and neither can you expect to
lose massive amounts of weight acquired
over several years in a three or four month
period. Be realistic but stay optimistic.
3. Eating habits. Take notice of what you
eat, how much, and how often. Portion
control cannot be overemphasized. The
bottom line is calories in, verses calories
used. What you dont use, gets stored as
fat.
4. Exercise history. Do you have one?
Are you the type to start gung ho in the
beginning only to fzzle out after a couple
of weeks? Or are you someone who will
exercise fairly regularly with several week
layoffs in between? Being consistent with
your exercise is the best way to keep your
weight in check. Understanding why you
suddenly stop exercising or why your
exercise is intermittent will be the key
to discovering what will be successful
for you.
Gluteal Muscles
The three muscles of the gluteal region are
the gluteus maximus, which extends and
rotates the thigh laterally, the gluteus me-
dius and gluteus minimus which abducts
and rotates the thigh medially. Strong
glutes are important for power/explosive
moves required in certain sports such as
track and feld, basketball, gymnastics, and
any other sport where explosive movement
is important. They also help with everyday
activities like walking, climbing stairs, lift-
ing, and getting out of chairs. Now, lets
get to exercises that work your gluteus to
the maximus!
Aerobic activity
For busy people se-
lect an activity that
works the gluteal
muscles and burns
calories at the same
time. Walking up-
hill, climbing stairs,
and inline skating
are all excellent ac-
tivities to accom-
plish this goal. Using the
stairstepper is also a good workout for the
buttocks, however excessive amounts of
time on this machine may result in a condi-
tion known as StairMaster Butt, which
denotes a too muscular rear end.
TARGET EXERCISES
Try these exercises for shaping, lifting,
and strengthening the buttocks. You can
superset two of these together or do a series
of giant sets, or perform them individually.
Options are endless. For those of you who
have knee issues squats and deep lunges
may be exercises you will want to avoid.
Squats
Squats are my favorite lower body ex-
ercise. They recruit more leg and glute
muscles than any other exercise. You can
do them with your own body weight, hold-
ing dumbbells in your hands, using a Smith
rack, or with a barbell across the back of
your shoulders (my personal favorite).
Stand with your feet slightly wider than
shoulder width, toes subtly turned out. As
you begin your descent keep your back
straight and head up. Focusing on a point
high on the wall like the top of the mir-
ror will help you keep your head up and
back straight. Squat deep enough so that
your thighs are
parallel to the
foor before be-
ginning your as-
cent. At the bot-
tom point use the
mirror to assure
that knees stay
over the ankles
or go beyond the
toes. You want to
straighten com-
pletely upward but never lock the knees.
Unless you are a seasoned squatter its
always a good idea to have a spotter. Do
up to sets of 12-1 repetitions.
One-Legged Squats
Again these can be done using your own
body weight or with the addition of weights
or a Smith rack. Standing on one leg, ex-
tend the other leg behind you and place
the top of your foot on a bench. Keeping
the back straight and head up begin your
descent. As your squat deepens be sure
that the split between supportive leg and
non-supportive leg is wide enough so that
the knee of the non-supportive leg would
touch the foor (if it touched the foor at
all) well behind the heel of the supportive
leg. Also, make sure that the knee of the
supportive leg does not overshoot the toes.
Use the mirror to see that the knee of the
supportive leg is above the ankle (so that
its not rotating inward). Straighten upward
but never lock the knee. Do up to sets of
10-1 repetitions each leg.
Lunges
Lunges are fun (and grueling) because
there are so many different ways to do
them. You can do walking lunges, standing
forward lunges, standing reverse (back-
Question: I hate my rear-end. Every time I look in the mirror I want to cringe.
Yes, I could lose a few pounds but is there really anything a woman can do to shape her buttocks?

ward) lunges, or elevated lunges (stepping
onto a bench 2- inches above ground).
The most important factor here is balance.
Whether performing walking, standing
or elevated lunges, hold the stomach
muscles tight and keep the shoulders over
or slightly in front of the hips. The lower
back will mildly arch to accommodate this
move. Just be sure youre not over arching
or leaning too far forward. And just as in
the squats, dont allow the knee to over-
shoot the toes. Lastly, if youve chosen the
forward lunge, pushing back from the heel
more effciently activates the hamstrings
and glute/hamstring tie-ins. Do up to sets
of 12-1 repetitions each leg.
Leg Kickbacks
This is an oldie but a goody. Start out on
a mat on your hands and knees, weight
evenly distributed. Draw one knee forward
and underneath you and then extend your
leg straight behind you, lifting the foot
above body position, without overarching
your back. When extending and lifting
the leg, the work portion of the lift should
come directly from the hip area. Do not
overarch your back to elevate the leg. As
this exercise becomes easier, wear ankle
weights for more resistance. Do up to 2
sets of 1-2 repetitions each leg.
Leg Press
Most people wouldnt consider the leg
press an exercise for the buttocks but it
actually is; though the gluteal muscles
are not primary movers. To incorporate
greater activity from the gluteal region
simply place your feet higher (further up)
on the plate. Higher feet placement also
increases the activity of the hamstrings
as well. Do not fully lock the knees at the
top of this move.
Step-ups
This is not a typical exercise you would see
someone doing in a gym, because frankly,
theyre hard and tiring. If you have knee
problems this one may not be for you.
Step-ups are performed using a normal
bench (or sturdy chair if at home) 1-2
inches tall. Stand facing the bench, place
your right foot onto the bench and stand
as if going up a step, bringing the left foot
up and even. Keeping your weight on the
right foot, step back down with the left foot
and bring the right foot even with the left.
Repeat on the same side or alternate right
and left. Its important to keep the back
straight, shoulders over the hips, and stom-
ach muscles tight when
executing this move.
You can add resistance
with dumbbells or if
youre balance is really
good, place a weighted
bar across your back.
Do up to 2 sets, 10-1
repetitions each leg.
All these exercises can
help strengthen, shape,
and lift your derriere but
keep in mind that you
will only see a change in shape if you are
engaging in aerobic exercise and watching
your diet as well. Otherwise, youll be
frming up the muscles under the fat.
Save your money on gimmicks that prom-
ise to melt inches from your behind. Spot
reducing does not exist. These gadgets are
nothing but shams and many a fool has
had their wallets thinned by well-made
marketing schemes. Your best bet, as it
always has been, is to throw on the work-
out clothes and get your butt moving (no
pun intended).

tricks

By Pro Bodybuilder, Tricky Jackson
CANT GET RId OF MY dARN
LOVE HANdLES
Ricky, I do what seems to be thousands
of crunches a day, and eat a pretty low
fat diet, yet I still cant get rid of my
darn love handles. HELP!
Doing side bends will help some. What-
ever exercises you do, I would suggest
that you avoid too much added
resistance. This could build
the muscle in the area and ac-
tually thicken the waist. What
you must do is to focus on
reducing overall body fat. Try
increasing your cardio activity
(i.e., bike or treadmill) to -
times per week for 2-0 min-
utes per session. Combine that
with a sensible diet of - small
meals per day, spaced about
three hours apart. Minimize carb
intake in your last two meals
or alternate them in each meal
throughout the day. Replace
these carbs with good protein
sources and fresh veggies. Hope
this helps. You may even try a
fat burner with the above sugges-
tions for an added kick.
WHICH KINd OF PRO-
TIEN POWdER?
As you know, there are a lot of
different protein powders on the
market today and I have heard a lot
of conficting reports on which type of
protein powder to take. Some people say
that whey protein is the ultimate protein
and others say that it is even better to
incorporate different sources of protein
into a shake. Based on your experience,
what do you fnd works best?
Great question. Hands down the best
protein I have ever used is Probolic-SR
by MHP.
Needless to say, protein powder is
an extremely important part of my daily
nutrition program. Because of this, I
have really tried to become as much of
an expert on protein as possible. I have
read a lot about the topic and have also
tried many different types of protein
powder. What I have found is that differ-
ent sources of protein have very impor-
tant differing characteristics.
1.They have different digestion rates
(Fast, Medium and Slow)
2.They have different levels of the
most critical muscle building amino
acids (Glutamine, Leucine, Isoleucine,
Valine and Arginine)
Digestion rates and muscle-build-
ing amino acids are of vital importance
because the whole idea behind building
muscle is to stay anabolic. Amino acids
create an anabolic environment and
prevent muscle tissue breakdown in the
body but the rate at which they enter and
exit the blood can determine how much
muscle you build.
Whey protein for example is an
excellent source of protein because it is
high in the critical muscle building ami-
no acids and digests and feeds muscle
the fastest. The only downside is that it
does this for a very short period of
time and then exits the body. Fast in
equals fast out. So while whey pro-
tein is great, it only keeps you ana-
bolic for a very short period of time.
Because of this, I always want to use
a protein powder that has whey pro-
tein for the fast release but also in-
corporates a blend of other proteins
such as Soy and Casein which have
high levels of the critical muscle
building amino acids but different
digestion rates than one another.
Soy protein happens to be richer in
Glutamine and Arginine than whey
protein and has a medium release
profle meaning that it digests at
a slower rate than whey but feeds
muscle tissue for a longer period
of time. Casein protein digests
the slowest, has a great mix of the
critical amino acids and happens
to last the longest in the body.
That is why my choice is
Probolic-SR by MHP. Probolic-
SR contains all proteins (Whey, Supro
Soy and Casein) to achieve that fast,
medium and slow release profle of key
amino acids. What is amazing is that
Probolic-SR is then further enhanced
with the critical muscle building amino
acids and has the worlds frst and only
exclusive12-hour time released technol-
ogy. This technology is a breakthrough
of monumental proportions as it literally
supplies muscle building amino acids
directly to muscle tissue for 12 continu-
ous hours.
TRYING TO AdJUST MY dIET
TO PUT ON LEAN MUSCLE
MASS
I am 160lbs @ about 9 or 10% body fat.
I am trying to adjust my diet to put on
lean muscle mass. What should I include
in my diet and what supplements do you
suggest?
The key to gaining lean muscle mass is
to strategically increase your calories
over a set period of time. Determine the
number of calories you currently take in
per day on average. This is the average
calories your body demands to maintain
10lbs. Then begin increasing your
calories about 0-0 calories a week for
12 weeks. This will boost your caloric
intake to about 0 to 00 calories per
week. Training intensity should be mod-
erate using heavy poundage with a -
rep range. The next weeks maintain
new caloric intake and increase training
intensity, by decreasing poundage and
increasing reps from 12-1. Repeat the
cycle. When you increase your calories,
they should come from clean sources of
proteins, carbs, and essential fats. You
should be taking in about - meals per
day spaced 2- hours apart. Try to taper
down complex carbs in the evenings and
do more proteins and fbrous carbs. Be
sure to include essential fatty acids like
nuts a couple times per day. As for sup-
plements, I suggest a good creatine. A
mass powder can also be helpful if taken
consistently a couple of times per day.
But these shakes should not replace solid
food meals. They can accompany a meal
or be separate, your choice. I have gotten
exceptional lean weight gains in the off-
season from supplementing with MHPs
Up your Mass. So train hard, increase
calories, and add lean mass.

What
is HGH?
H u m a n
Growt h Hor-
mone, or so-
matotropin, is a
simple protein
made up of a
single chain of
11 amino acids
and is a another
hormone that is
naturally present in the human body when we are young
but tends to disappear as we age.
HGH improves overall health, energy levels, and
sense of well-being and listed below are a few benefts:
Stronger Bones
Younger, Thicker Skin
Sharper Vision
Mood Improvement
Fewer Wrinkles
.% average muscle mass gain after months without
exercise
1.% average body fat loss after months without
dieting
Stronger Immune System
Improved Kidney Function
Improved Energy Levels
Lower Cholesterol
Lower Blood Pressure
Cellulite Elimination
Improved Memory
Improved Exercise Performance
Greater Cardiac Output
Improved and Enhanced Sexual Performance
Regrowth of heart, liver, kidneys, spleen, and organs
that shrink with age
Tissue Regeneration
HGH is release by the pituitary gland and this
starts as a child peaking before the age of 20 and then
steadily declining as we age. This hormone enters into our
bloodstream in pulses usually in the early hours of sleep
which is why sleep is so important to growing children.
The hormone then moves quickly from the bloodstream
to the liver where it is converted into substances called
DGF 1 and 2. These are messenger molecules also known
as Growth Factors and they carry HGHs message of
growth into other parts of the body.
By the time you reach 0 or 70, your body has ac-
cess to only 1-20 percent of the HGH that is used in
your youth.
HGHs function in children and young adults is to
help bones lengthen and expand so that we are grow-
ing and becoming taller with longer limbs and stronger
bones. HGH promotes growth by helping to
transport amino acids between cells and by
inducing cells to accept and synthesize amino
acids. Amino acids are found in proteins and
are used by the body to creat muscles and to
build and restore organs, including your skin
and heart.
As we get older, without this vital hor-
mone to help synthesize protein and keep
nitrogen levels high, our muscle and organ
tissue starts to break down.
Listed below are a few other important
functions of HGH:
Breaking down body fat - As children, the nutrients
ingested should be converted to bone, muscle, and organ
tissue, not to fat and the natural HGH their body produces
is very crucial to this process.
Synthesizing collagen - Collagen is the substance
in our body that keeps us fexible and limber and it
strengthens our cartilage, tendons, ligaments and bones.
As we become older, we tend to stiffen up due to a loss
of collagen.
Synthetic HGH will give a boost to Adults
and Athletes.
Synthetic HGH was produced through recombinant
DNA technology and sold under the names Protropin
and Humatrope. After Scientist explored the available
hormone and how it affected adults health and growth,
the results were signifcant. Studies showed weight gain
in muscle while losing body fat, cholestoerol levels de-
creased, and many more benefts as listed above. Normal
and healthy, hormonally balanced young adults under the
age of 0 should not be taking HGH. Your levels of HGH
should also be tested by a Doctor before considering to
take HGH.
HGHs greatest result is rebuilding muscle and trans-
forming a persons muscle-to-fat ratin. HGH is also the
most effective in combating the effects of chronic diseases
that involve muscle wasting - stroke, chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease and AIDS. It can hep in treating severe
burns an helping patients recover from surgery where skin
and other organs must be regenerated and restored.
As an elder with stronger muscles and healthier skin,
you should be healing faster from wounds, fewer falls,
and improved mobility and independence.
HGH Side Effects:
If you are taking prescribed HGH, the long term
effects are unknown. If taking over the physiologic
dose for a long period of time, listed below are a few
side effects:
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Arthritis
Osteoporosis
Impotence
Gynecomastia
Diabetes like symptoms
However, recent studies have shown that most if not
all of the side effects are reversed when the patient stops
taking HGH or the dose is decreased. Again, remember
the side effects only occurred in studies when using too
much HGH.
Natural HGH Releasers
There are many supplements that have been shown to
stimulate the pituitary gland to release HGH. The amino
acid arginine, in adequate quantities, and ornithine both
cause HGH release via the brains cholinergic nervous
system, the system that uses acetylcholine which is made
in the brain from the nutrient choline with the help of
the cofactor vitamin B to transmit information between
nerve cells. Acetylcholine is necessary for the HGH
releasers to be effective, therefore, taking choline and B
supplements in conjunction with arginine and ornithine
would be a good combination.
Other nutrients that also increase HGH release
include Niacin, Tyrosine, Methionine and Glutathione.
Somatomedin C - an HGH releasing hormone - has also
good results.
Reports show that HGH activates macrophages, im-
mune system cells that seek out and kill disease-causing
microbes and cancel cells, by increasing the production
of super oxide radicals.
Exercise and HGH
Exercise is an excellent way to increase your bodys
access to HGH as High Intensity exercise such as free-
weight training 2- times per week will raise your HGH
levels. To raise your HGH levels, your workout must be
strenuous lifting reps up to six times and not high reps
of 1 or more. If you can lift more than reps than go
heavier. (Always check with your physician before start-
ing any new strenuous exercise program.)
Lower body workouts tend to be the most effective
with regards to releasing HGH. Other ways to raise HGH
levels are sprinting, squash, handball or racquet ball two
or more times per week. HGH seems to be released while
doing intense and Strenuous Activity.
Always consult with a knowledgeable physician
before starting any exercise or nutrition program and when
supplementing with any pharmacotherapy.

Q
training
By Jason Cohen
too tired to workout after work
Q
: I am one of those people who works a nine hour
day and then goes to the gym directly after work.
By the time I get 20 minutes into my workout I am
dead tired. Since I cant take any stimulants do you
have any advice for me?
Tammy Rosen, Denver, Colorado
A
: I can totally relate to your problem, Tammy.
I also work a ten hour day and then go directly
to the gym after work. You have few options which I
would recommend. My frst suggestion, which may not
be feasible, would be to take a 20 minute nap in your
car just prior to working out. My training partner gets
up at :00 am every morning, goes to work and trains
with me at :0pm everyday when he is done work.
Each evening, he takes a nap from :00 to :20 in his
car in the gym parking lot and manages to train very
hard each night. This may sound crazy, but I have tried
it a few times and the old power nap does do the
trick.
My next sug-
gestion would be to
shorten your work-
outs and train your
major body parts
on the weekends.
I would train your
legs and back on
Saturday and Sun-
day and train your smaller body parts during the week.
You may want to limit your workouts to minutes.
Finally, make sure you do your cardio after you train
with weights so you do not deplete all of your glycogen
stores in the frst 0 minutes of your workout.
Finally, some non-stimulant type supplements
could really help you. One very popular supplement
that will help you is called Ribose. Ribose basically
stimulates the bodys production of ATP. Ribose is the
essential compound required to make ATP molecules
and maintain high levels of energy in the heart and
skeletal muscles. Another valuable supplement would
be a simple vitamin B complex.
getting started in competition
Q
: I have always wanted to do a bodybuilding com-
petition, but I have no idea where to start. What
are some of the things you suggest to get me started?
Rob Garcia,
New York, NY
A
: Well Rob, there are a lot of different consider-
ations you must think about before competing.
My frst suggestion would be to go to a local show and
see what it is all about. This way, you will know the
general procedure and possibly what the judges are
looking for and what kind of shape you will need to be
in. My next suggestion would be to pick a show at least
12 weeks out and set specifc goals for yourself. Dont
pick a goal like I want to fnish at least frst or second
in my class. Set a goal like, I want to get my body fat
down to at least % three days prior to the show. Try
not to set any unreasonable goals for yourself because
your frst show is strictly a learning experience.
The next thing you need to do is buy a video
called Perfect Posing. This may be one of the most bor-
ing, repetitive tapes you ever watch, but it is essential
to learning how to pose properly. I recommend buying
this tape at least 12 weeks out and watch it over and
over again. If at all possible, video tape your posing at
least once per week so that you can see your progress
and view your weaknesses.
One of the biggest mistakes I see newcomers
make is to getting advice from too many different
sources. Try to fnd one or two successful bodybuild-
ers to help you. Any more than that and you will get
conficting opinions and then start to doubt yourself.
Remember what I said, your frst show is strictly a
learning experience.
Another mistake people make is to rely too heav-
ily on the scale. When it comes to bodybuilding, the
scale is virtually worthless. The judges have no idea
what you weigh when you are standing next to the
other competitors. Go by what the mirror tells you and
what your approximate body fat percentage is. Trust
me, I have seen some of the lightest heavyweights on
stage beat the heaviest guys in the class. It is all how
you look on stage, your conditioning, and the illusion
you present to the judges. I use the word illusion be-
cause everybody has weak points, so the idea is to hide
them on stage.
Finally, and this is very important, make sure
you have fun and be a good sport. Remember, the six
judges sitting in front of you do not determine your self
worth. They are doing the best job they can to judge the
show fairly and accurately. Of course, there is politics
involved in judgingand now that you know this in
advance just have fun! Be as polite and courteous to
all of the other competitors. They worked just as hard
as you did to be able to compete. If you do not fn-
ish where you thought, you should then keep smiling
and train that much harder for your next show. Trust
me, if you exhibit poor sportsmanship, the judges will
remember you not for your physique but for your nega-
tive attitude.
Bodybuilding can be a very fun and exciting hob-
by, so make the best of it and keep in mind that it does
not determine your self-worth.

I am having a hard time training my
lower abs. What is the best exercise
to improve them?

Th e a b mu s c l e

Abdominis, is one
long muscle that
ori gi nat es i n t he
pubis bone and at-
taches in the ribs and
xyphoid process (lo-

is based on an all
or nothing theory.
That means when
the muscle flexes
all of the fbers are
working, so not just
the lower muscle f-
bers or upper muscle
fbers. They all work
simultaneously. The
movement can begin
in the lower section
by tilting the hips
under. The three best exercises to target
this area are hanging abs, roman chair abs,
or hip lifts on the foor. The main focus on
each of these exercises should be tilting
the hips under and contracting the abs in
towards the spine.
Question:
I know I am supposed to be eating
fber, but how much should I have
daily?
Answer:
Experts recommend approximately 2-
0 grams of fber daily. Most Americans
only get about 10-12 grams. Naturally
balanced fber is a ratio of 7% insoluble
Mak Attack Style!
and 2% soluble. Insoluble is the rough-
age that cleans the colon and promotes
regular bowel movements. Soluble fber
is dissolved in water. You can fnd both in
fruits and vegetables. If you are going to
supplement with a fber pill, try to keep
the 7/2 balance. This balance may be
maintained by using a Flax f-
ber versus psyllium. Flax also
contains Lignans which are
an important nutrient studied
in cancer research. Flax is
non-constipating because it
does not swell in the body like
psyllium does. Lastly, Flax is
available in an organic form
and psyllium is not.
Question:
My back has been so tight
lately because I work in an
offce. Are there stretches
I can do during the day to
loosen up?
Answer:
Yes! I actually have this prob-
lem sometimes myself. Here
are three chair exercises you
can do at your desk to loosen
up and get the blood fowing
in your upper body.
1. Neck - Sit up straight tilt your right
ear to the right shoulder and press your
left arm down about degrees from the
shoulder. Lift your fngers and palm up
away from the foor for a more intense
stretch. You can also feel how the stretch
changes as you lift your arm up slowly to
horizontal and then back down towards
your waist. Take - breaths in each posi-
tion. Hold for about 20-0 seconds. Repeat
on the other side.
2. Back Move your chair away from
your desk about two feet. Start with your
feet fat on the foor hips width apart. Be-
gin with an inhale and allow your upper
body to bend forward at the hips about
degrees, hold this for 20 seconds. Spine re-
mains straight. Allow your upper body and
chest to round forward on top of the legs.
Let your hands hang down towards the
ground. If this is too strenuous then keep
your hands or elbows placed on your knees
until you are able to comfortable hang with
your hands touching the foor.
3. Shoulders Start with your chair about
2 feet away from the desk. Place your hand
on the top of the desk about shoulder width
apart. Press your chest forward towards
the ground. Hold for 0 seconds. Move
your hands out about two feet apart and
feel the stretch move more into the front
of the shoulder and chest. Hold here for
0 seconds or breaths.

Why Y3 Reigns Supreme
If youve ever taken the time to check out the supplement
facts of some fat burners, youve probably come across
the ingredient yohimbe, which is commonly refered to as
Pausinystalia johimbe, a tree native to West Africa. Yohimbe
bark contains the chemical yohimbine, which has been shown
to possess incredible fat-burning prowess. Most fat burners
contain only small amounts, while Y3s advanced formula
unleashes the highest amount legally available in the top
national supplement retailer.
More NE = More Fat Burning
The secret behind yohimbines unmatched power and
effectiveness is that it can jack up norepinephrine, your bodys
primary hormone for burning fat, by a mind-blowing 56%
1,3
.
When you consider that other run-of-the-mill fat burners top
out at 40%, you can appreciate how Y3 is invaluable in your
quest to get absolutely shredded.
How Y3 Sends Fat Packing
Most of your bodys fat is stored in adipose tissue, which is
made up of adipocytes cells (fat cells) that specialize in storing
energy as fat. Your body uses specic chemicals to signal these
cells to either release or store fat.
One of the primary chemical messengers made by your body
is norepinephrine, which also happens to be the primary
hormone for burning fat. To deliver its message, norepinephrine
attaches itself to ports on a cell called adrenoreceptors. There
are two key categories of adrenoreceptors, alpha and beta.
If the norepinephrine messenger attaches itself to alpha ports
(receptors), the cell gets the message to store fat. Not good.
But if the norepinephrine messenger attaches itself to beta
ports (receptors), it tells the cell to release fat.
Now that you
understand
how your
body stores and
releases fat, youre
ready to discover
how Y3 works on
a cellular level. The
yohimbine in Y3 works as
an antagonist by inhibiting
the alpha receptor on the
adipocytes cell. This prevents the
norepinephrine messenger from
attaching to the alpha receptor.
Long story short its not allowed
to broadcast its message to
store fat. That leaves the beta
receptors wide open to receive
norepinephrines release fat
message that increases lipolysis
(fat burning).
Y3 doesnt stop there. It actually
stimulates the synaptic release
of norepinephrine, screaming
out even more messages to
adipocytes cells to release
fat. When all is said and
done, Y3 is the only fat
burner that can jack up
your bodys production of
norepinephrine by 56%.

Well, yohimbe is one of the most powerful fat-burning agents you can get without breaking the law. Its this

I dropped 33 pounds in 12 weeks.


Thats why for me, its Y3 or nothing!

You go through the muscle mags and read all the hype about
these productsand after a while you start wondering whats
for real. I felt like that, toount il I got on Y3.
I remember taking my rst serving early that morning.
Before I could bang out my rst rep I already felt it. Its
hard to describebut it was like this electrical surge, like I
was charged up to maximum power. Ive never had a better
workout. I literally tore through my sets. I didnt want to stop.
It wasnt long after that I started noticing big-time results.
After a few weeks, Id already dropped a ton of fat to reveal
all the muscle Id busted my butt to put on. Ive tried other fat
burners over the years, but nothing comes close to Y3. Youve
got to try this stuff to understand just how powerful and fast
it really is.
After 12 weeks, my results with Y3 speak for themselves. I
dropped 33 pounds. Thats why for me, its Y3 or nothing1

More Yohimbe = More Fat Burning Fury
Unlike any other fat burner ever developed, Y3 doesnt merely
contain yohimbe. This power-packed formula harnesses the
unbridled power of actual yohimbine in the form of yohimbine
hydrochloride (HCl) and 11-hydroxy-yohimbine. Not only is
this new form of yohimbine extremely potent, but 11-hydroxy-
yohimbine also has a natural half-life (the time required for half
the quantity of a substance to be metabolized or eliminated
by normal biological processes) of up to 8 hours. Compare Y3s
multiple forms of power-packed yohimbine with the fraction of
regular yohimbine found in typical fat burners, and its clear why
Y3 can get you peeled to the bone in no time at.
Given the fact that yohimbine can jack up your bodys
production of norepinephrine by 56%, its a mystery
why no fat burners have ever taken full advantage of
this incredibly powerful fat burning agent until Y3.
Blast Through Your Workouts with a Vengeance
Youre dedicated to getting shredded. Theres no doubt
about that. But even the most devoted bodybuilder can get
run down. But Y3s got your back with its advanced Neuro
Intensity Complex, which includes:
L-Tyrosine to enhance mental focus
Brahmi to improve nerve impulse transmission
Choline Bitartrate for improved cognition
Ginkgo biloba for improved circulation to the brain
Huperzia serrata for cognitive benets
Vinpocetine for increased cerebral blood ow
and increased glucose and oxygen consumption
by the brain
Add it all up and you get a serious upgrade in mental focus
and intensity in the gym, allowing you to train harder and
burn even more calories.
Just One Daily Serving of Y3 is All it Takes
One of the biggest pains about some fat burners is
that they require multiple dosing. Y3s science-
backed formula, on the other hand, includes an
advanced time-release technology. Add the
time-release effects of 11-hydroxy-yohimbine
(rememberit has a natural half-life of up to 8
hours), and all you need to achieve maximum
fat-burning results is a single daily serving. Its
never been easier.
Thyroid Stimulation
If you can believe it, Y3 covers yet another angle to help you
get completely peeled. This time its by supporting thyroid
function. Your thyroid hormone is produced by your thyroid
gland, which regulates metabolism and organ function. The
key compound found in Y3s Thyroid Support Complex has
been engineered to support maximum thyroid production to
help you burn even more fat in less time.
Y3 remains active in your body for up to 8 hours, so all
it takes is one daily serving for maximum fat-burning
results.
Only Y3 provides explosive fat loss:
9 mg of yohimbine per serving
3
Increase norepinephrine by up to 56%
1,3
Potent Neuro Intensity Complex to increase
focus and performance
One serving a day: Time Release technology
releases a steady stream of potent fat-burning
ingredients throughout the day

Substituting ground turkey breast for ground beef sheds about 200 calories,
25 grams of fat, 10 grams of saturated fat and 45 milligrams of cholesterol. This
is a much healthier and tastier burger.
Adding moistening
ingredients and being careful
not to overcook them, you can
enjoy low-fat turkey burgers that
are both favorful and moist.
INGREdIENTS:
1. pounds lean ground turkey breast
2 fresh diced Jalapeno peppers (milder if you
remove the membrane and seeds)
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 c diced mushrooms
1/2 cup fresh parsley, fnely chopped
(dried parsley can be substituted )
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon ground cumin
Splash of Worcestershire sauce
1/ c egg whites
dIRECTIONS:
1. Spray large saucepan with Pam and preheat
on medium temp
2. In a bowl, mix above ingredients well. Form
into - patties.
. Place turkey burgers in pan, cook to 10
minutes per side or until well done on med/low
heat. I like to cook slowly and covered with a
lid to keep patties from drying out. Add a cup
water to pan to keep moist.
. Serve garnished with fresh parsley and
sprinkled with oregano and Paprika
Jalapeno/Mushroom Turkey Burgers

with gina ostarly
Serve with broccoli and mushrooms as a side dish.
Throw your broccoli and extra mushrooms in the covered saucepan with patties for the last
min of cooking. Remember you have added a little water, so they will steam perfectly.

time to be a better
EVERYTHING!
pzs perspective
W
ishing and hoping and thinking and pray-
ingplanning and dreamingthen what?
What do you do with all those hopes and
dreams? Do your goals ever become reality? Do your
ideas ever make it into action? Or do they languish on
the vine or worse yet become reduced to some sad,
stale, all-too-familiar, could-a-been a contender stories
repeated to anyone within earshot after too many brews
on a Friday night?
Theres something about this New Year that feels good
to me. It feels like people are poised to make things
happen. It feels like they are getting unstuck and out
of the muck. It feels like they are on the other side of
the struggle. The struggles of the past years have been
many and seemingly have kept even the most ambitious
and talented among us frustrated and down; but these
obstacles have now been overcome and are clearing the
way for opportunity and accomplishment. People are
eager and prepared and ready. Look around you. There
is already movement on many levels and many fronts.
Do you see it? Can you feel it? Are you part of it?
But in order to turn that million dollar idea you and
your wife hatched in your kitchen--quite by accident,
into more than an idea, you have to do better than you
did in the past. In order to start that business youve
been meaning to start you have to do better than youve
previously done. In order to win that competition
youve always craved you have to do better than you
have up until now. Youre going to have to crank it up
another notch. You have to decide to raise the bar a lit-
tle higher on your life. That means youll have to train
a little tougher, study a little harder, stick it out a little
longer, commit a little frmer, persevere a little further.
You have to do more and be more of what you used to
do and who you used to be in order to ultimately get to
where you want to be.
This is the time to go for the brass ring. For this to hap-
pen in your life you have to decide to make it so. The
better you can be at any and all aspects of your life the
better your chances at making those dreams and goals
come true.
Pzs Pointers to being a
better everything:
Be a better friend
Think of the individuals
in your life who you
can honestly call
your friend
and mean it.
Think how
you would
react if they
were gone and
no longer here.
What kind of
emptiness or
void would that
leave in you?
True and authentic
friends are hard to come by.
Seinfeld used to say you dont
take applications for new friends
over .
Im not so sure I totally agree with his sweeping gen-
eralization, but I will say its hard to make new, mean-
ingful, and lasting friendships at any age, must less as
we get older. The friends we are lucky enough to have
we should value and cherish. Dont take your friends
for granted. Sometimes we treat strangers better. Real
friends deserve the best we have to give.
Be a better citizenThe election last year
changed the makeup of our Congress. Whether this
makes you happy or not, the change came about be-
cause the American people got involved and made their
voices heard. They voted and it counted. There has now
been a shift in the power structure and those who have
been sworn in and taken their elected seat need to live
up to their part of the bargain. We have entrusted them
with our future. Its called democracy. As citizens of a
free land it is our responsibility to remain informed and
stay abreast of the events that shape what lies ahead.
The race for the White House has already begun. Dont
sit idly by and believe this magical experiment called
the United States of America
is going to remain strong
for long without the in-
volvement of all its citi-
zens. While not everyone
will share the same
philosophies and ide-
ologies we all share the
love of this country
and the principles
upon which it
was founded.
Our standing in
the world is a bit
tarnished and tat-
tered at the moment
but not without hope
nor beyond the
point of being
repaired, Yes,
we need to be
mightyits a
dangerous world with
plenty of enemies who would
revel in our destruction, but we
also need to be mightily viewed if
we intend to be the leader among nations. That reputa-
tion comes from more than our ability to wage war; it
comes from our willingness to wage peace. Now is the
time to do your part. Write your elected offcials and
tell them what you need from them. Become a part of
a campaign, regardless of party affliation. We take our
freedom and our country for granted. We expect well
wake up tomorrow and it will still be there and the fag
will still be fying and all will be well with the world.
History clearly teaches us that lessons unlearned will
repeat unless we all do our part at keeping America
healthy in spirit and strong in character.
Be a better listenerBeing a good listener is a
very unselfsh way to go about life. That means you are
putting yourself out there to genuinely pay attention
to the one speaking. You listen because you carenot

these cases you are the customer. Remember if you
can show patience and be civil, even in the
most taxing of circumstances the whole
experience can go smoother and more
folks will follow suit. Just because you
are a customer doesnt mean you are
always right. Sorry, but I dont believe
in that motto. People can be real jerks
and idiots and be anything but right in
their interaction with others. Just because
you are spending your money doesnt
entitle you to be diffcult or demand-
ing. Dont give people a hard time
because you can. You always get so
much further when you deal in kind-
ness or sweetness as opposed to being rude
or hateful. Be a better customer and youre surer to
receive better service.
Be a better employer/employeePeople in posi-
tions of power sometimes forget what it feels like to be
on the other side of the fence. Their authority has gone
to their heads and they rule foolishly or with an iron
fst. An organization is only as good as its leader at the
top. Everything trickles down from there. If you are in
a position where you have power over others be more
cognizant of that power. If someones livelihood is in
your hands be respectful of exactly what that means. If
you are cruel or condescending to employees you will
not get their respect or their best effort. If you are fair
and compassionate, youll get so much more productiv-
ity and commitment from your staff. As an employee in
a world where job security is all but a distant memory,
its hard to build a sense of loyalty among people where
there is so little stability. That doesnt mean we cant
change the face of the workforce for the future. From
McDonalds to Wall Street, if we all take pride in what
we do and give the job and our employer our best effort
we can begin to regain some of the gung-ho workplace
confdence once so prevalent in our nations history.
Be a better advocateWhat is important to you?
What cause would you champion if you could wake
up tomorrow and be part of something else, something
bigger than yourself? Bono is a great example with his
advocacy for Africa. This rock legend lends his name
and his support to this cause in a huge way. None of
us have that kind of mass infuence or clout, but that
doesnt mean we cant still be involved somehow in
something that will make us feel more connection to
humanity on a larger scale. I recently found out a friend
of mine has been feeding the homeless on a weekly
basis in an area of our community. What started off as
a few hamburgers and fries has now turned into some-
thing quite bigger than he expected. Its an indicator of
how great the needs of the misfortunate and downtrod-
den really are. Even though this act of kindness seems
quite small as compared to what Bono is doing, it is
anything but small. Anytime one reaches out to help
feed strangers out of the kindness of their heart and for
no recognition or motive, they are to be applauded and
commended. Each of us can do something and every
little bit helps to make a bad situation a little better.
Be a better consumerWhether the reports about
global warming are accurate or exaggerated doesnt
matter. We can all be better consumers. Think of
how wasteful we have become as individu-
als and as a society. Spoiled and reckless
we fail to appreciate the vast wealth and
limited resources of our nation and fail
to recognize the ramifcations if we
continue to squander that wealth
and those resources. We can all
be better. We can all pass on
the message.
Be a better exampleEv-
eryday there are chances to make
an impact on someone somewhere.
Maybe its at home behind closed
doors with family. Maybe its out at
lunch with friends. Maybe you coach
soccer. Maybe you teach karate. Maybe
youre a waiter or a pastor or a mechanic or a doctor.
Maybe youre a writer. Live your life like the world is
watching. Live your life as the best example you can
be. Others will see and be touched or affected in some
small or profound way.
Be a better loverEveryone in a relationship lis-
ten upespecially you guys! Its hard over the course
of time to maintain a high level of intimacy and passion
in a relationship, and partners are not always on the
same page when it comes to the act and the art of mak-
ing love. Life can get in the way. Its up to you to do
your part to keep the relationship fresh. If things have
gotten off track or monotonous or boring, its up to you
to change or fx whatever is broken. Sometimes people
get selfsh, and its all about them and their needs. Give
unselfshly to your partner. Switch things up and make
yourself available and desirable. Make the frst move
when least expected. Say yes when youre tired or you
dont want to be bothered. If you have kids, purposely
fnd time apart from them to be alone. Communicate
and share your feelings, even if its not something
youre comfortable doing. Listen to what your partner
is saying. If your relationship matters, if your partner
matters, then being a better lover can only improve
upon what you already have. If you love your partner,
whats not to love about that?
Just today I had the pleasure of speaking with a
delightful and adorable young -year-old named Zach-
ary. Already Zach knows what he wants to be in life.
First, he wants to play footballprobably wide-re-
ceiver. Baseball is another love of his and he can actu-
ally hit from both sides making him an invaluable asset
to his T-ball team. Peyton Manning and Derek Jeter are
his heroes (along with his dad) and Zach is determined
that one day hell play these sports on a scale beyond
his current level of Little League. Oh, and in addition,
Zach is going to be an actor. He and his -year-old sis-
ter are seasoned veterans when it comes to the audition
process for modeling, commercials, and flms, and he
has learned the cold world of rejection when the part
is given to another boy who is deemed better suited for
the role. The wonderful thing about Zach, and what
struck me most, is this little guy isnt just talking the
talk, but hes walking the walk. He has a wide-eyed en-
thusiasm for life that we adults could stand to emulate.
Shy, yet confdent, Zach sees himself as a winner in
life. His goals are lofty by any standards but for him are
very much in reach. He isnt sitting around playing vid-
eo games for hours in a dark room. With the encourage-
ment and support of his loving parents, hes doing what
it takes to be a better football player, a better baseball
player, a better actor, a better student, and, it appears, a
better person. At age he has his whole life ahead of
him and plenty of time to be good at something, but for
Zachary the time to be good at everything is now. The
same can be said for the rest of us.

all hit you with
triple time-release capabilities. This has been achieved by
bonding key ingredients not just to the decanoate ester,
but also to an ethyl ester and alpha-ketoglutarate (AKG). So,
for instance, CREATINE-D
2
Ts ethyl ester provides you with
an immediate release of muscle-building creatine. This is
followed by an intermediate blast via the AKG bond, and -
nally an extended release courtesy of the decanoate ester.
Because you receive a steady stream of highly potent in-
gredients throughout the day, you just have to take a single
daily dose. In fact, these formulas are so strong, athletes
across the country have reported that the single daily dose
seems far more powerful than messy powder formulas and
inconvenient, multi-dose products.

This time release mechanism breaks down the release of
CREATINE-D

T, BIOBURN-D
2
T and NO-D
2
T into two stages.
The initial phase immediately unleashes 60% of key formula
ingredients. The remaining 40% of ingredients are gradu-
ally released over the course of several hours. When you
combine the triple nutrient release (courtesy of bonding
key ingredients to an ethyl ester, AKG and decanoate ester)
with the Matrix, you can be sure youll get the most out of
every BIOGENETIX formula with just a single daily dose.

aspect to these formulas that set them apart from probably

ing. Every BIOGENETIX caplet boasts this bullet-proof shell,
which allows the enclosed formulas to pass through the
acidic environment of the stomach unscathed. Now, these
still active ingredients can move into the small intestine
and dissolve for the Matrix to take effect.

Muscle Anatomy: Pectoralis Major is a triangular muscle that is thick, and broad. It
arises from the sternal half of the clavicle bone, also from the anterior surface of the
sternum and attaches as low as the sixth or seventh rib. The majority of the fbers
converge towards its insertion point, giving it a radiated appearance. Fibers coming
from the clavicle region run outwards and downwards, fbers from the sternum and
the lower ribs pass upwards and outwards, and the middle fbers pass horizontally.
Pectoralis minor is also a triangular muscle that is thin and fat. Positioned at the up-
per end of the thorax, attached to the 3rd, 4th, 5th ribs and inserting on the coracoid
process, this muscle is beneath the pectoralis major.

off to focus on other businesses and
family matters.
Then, in the spring of 200 one
of my sponsors, Jarrow Formulas,
and I discussed entering the Shawn
Ray Pro-Am in Denver Colorado.
Not only did they sponsor me, but
they also sponsored the event as an
exhibitor and sent out staff. I won 1
st

place in the Mens WW. That was my
most rewarding win to date, because
it confrmed that I could still be a
contender after taking a hiatus from
competing for years. I also did 200
NPC Nationals placing 1
th
.
I came in as a Welter when I
shouldve been a Middle or Light
Heavy. We will be competing in the
Shawn Ray Pro-Am again in May at
Denver. This time Ill be a Middle-
weight!

a passion for our sport and puts a tre-
mendous amount of time into living
his dream and helping thousands of
people with his knowledge. I have a
great respect for Richie and all of his
years of hard work. Coming off his
most recent win at the 200 Shawn

rado where he won the NPC Amateur
Mens Open Welterweight Division,
Richie began competing in 1 in
his hometown of Saratoga Springs,
New York at the ANBC Battle of
Saratoga where he placed 1st in the
Teen Class.
On October , 1, Richie
took a leap of faith by relocating to
Florida in pursuit of his aspirations
of bodybuilding and to continue his
college education in television and
radio broadcasting. Competing in the
1 NPC Florida Gold Cup Classic
his frst Florida Show- Daggs placed
1st in the Mens Open LW.
Then in 1, Daggs entered the

At t he 2001
NPC Space Coast, FL Richie placed
2nd in the LW class. Daggs remem-

Sonny Molinelli a great promoter
who has since passed and deserves
mention! Daggs then moved on to

in any sanctioning body. I was honored
to be in the top with 2 guys who have
since turned pro. In retrospect, thats
also affrming. Jimmy Canyon got it

Youve Got to Have


A Superiority Complex
Okay. So youre starting to get an idea of how only REVxp
HARDCORE can help you drop 10.3%
1
body fat. Now its time to dig
deeper into this seriously potent formulation and fnd out exactly how
it really works. When all is said and done, REVxp HARDCORE is the
only hardcore formula that has these one-of-a-kind complexes to kick
your fat-burning into the stratosphere:
Extreme Thermogenic Complex:
This wicked complex jacks up thermogenesis and metabolic
rate. All of its fat-scorching ingredients add up to a whopping
1038mg. Other products, even those "top" brands, contain a
mere 120-750mg.
Lipolytic Amplifying Complex:
This exclusive complex works in tandem with REVxp
HARDCOREs Extreme Thermogenic Complex by affecting the
mechanisms involved in cranking up your bodys rate of lipolysis
(fat burning).
Neuro Intensity Complex:
Its bodybuilding 101: the harder you train, the better the results.
This revolutionary Neuro Intensity Complex is formulated to
increase blood fow to the brain, and can seriously upgrade your
mental focus and intensity so youll blast through cardio sessions
and obliterate training plateaus.
Diuretic Complex:
If a bodybuilder wants a chance at taking home the hardware,
hes got to step on-stage as dry and muscular as possible. This
ultra-potent Diuretic Complex contains research-proven doses of
ingredients to remove subcutaneous water (excess water below
the skin.)
Insulin Sensitizing Complex:
Another untapped resource in fat loss is insulin. But this exclusive
complex is specifcally designed to help increase insulin sensitivity,
allowing your body to produce less of this "fat storage hormone".
Rapid Release Caplet Technology
REVxp HARDCOREs Rapid Release Caplets dissolve in seconds.
Just pop a serving and your quest for rapid fat loss begins on
day one!
Your Complete Solution for
Getting Shredded, Fast!
A program for swimmers isnt going to get you shredded.
So REVxp HARDCORE includes a FREE HARDCORE Guide to
Getting Shredded. Its defnitely not for beach bodies or soccer
moms. Its a bodybuilders complete resource for training, dieting
and supplementing to get dialed in, fast!
Take the Fast Track Towards
a Competition-Grade 6 Pack
REVxp HARDCORE is a fat-loss beast with a brain. Its possibly
the strongest fat burner you can get on without breaking the law.
Its also one of the most scientifcally advanced formulas that
takes a complete and unrelenting approach to fat loss.
STEP 1
REVxp HARDCORE contains ingredients that block Catechol
O-methyl-Tranferase (COMT) from breaking down orepinephrine
(NE), your bodys primary fat-burning hormone. The formula also
allows more NE to attach itself to adrenergic receptors, kicking
off the stimulation of cells to produce cyclic AMP (cAMP).
STEP 2
The Lipolytic Amplifying Complex tag-teams with the Extreme
Thermogenic Complex to ignite the mechanisms involved to
increase the rate of lipolysis, or fat burning. Clary Sage has been
shown to increase cAMP to send signals to the cell to break
down the stored fat into fatty acids.
STEP 3
Fatty acids from the cell are then transported to the mitochondria
(structures responsible for energy production in cells), which act
as a stoked furnace to break down fatty acids and produce loads
of energy.
STEP 4
Last, but defnitely not least, REVxp HARDCOREs Diuretic
Complex kicks in to remove subcutaneous water below the skin
for superhuman muscle defnition.
Thats the science driving REVxp HARDCORE. But as impressive
as that may all sound, what truly sets this hardcore fat burner
apart from all others are the hardcore results it delivers. If the
technology driving REVxp HARDCORE isnt enough to convince
you, all youve got to do is look to your right and check out how
competitive bodybuilder, Aaron Jewell, got absolutely ripped. and
in no time fat!
HARDCORE Results
Dr. Lawrence Baker isnt just a medical doctor. Hes also a national-level competitive bodybuilder. Hes
accomplished recognized lifts of over 400 pounds in the bench press and 600 pounds in the squat. So
you know he practices what he preaches. Thats why when he says he doesnt dream of getting on or
recommending anything other than REVxp HARDCORE when its time to dial it in, youd better listen up.
"As both a doctor and a bodybuilder, I can honestly say that nothing holds a candle to REVxp
HARDCORE. The science behind it is truly beyond compare. In my professional opinion, its the
strongest fat burner thats legally available, and the science behind it is unmatched. I know youll feel
it working after your frst dose."

myths
Womens Weight Training Myth #1
Weight training makes you bulky.
Due to the fact that women do not and can-
not naturally produce as much testosterone
(one of the main hormones responsible
for increasing muscle size) as males
do, it is impossible for a woman to
gain huge amounts of muscle mass
unless anabolic steroids are used
in conjunction with an extremely
aggressive weight training pro-
gram and bulking diet. Women
who conduct weight training
without the use of steroids get
the frm and ft cellulite-free
looking body that theyre
looking for provided that
they follow a good nutrition
program and cardiovascular
workout as well.

Womens Weight Train-
ing Myth #2
Exercise increases your chest
size.
Sorry girls. Womens breasts are composed mostly
of fatty tissue. Therefore, it is impossible to increase
breast size through weight training. As a matter of fact,
if you go below 12 percent body fat, your breast size
will decrease. Weight training does increase the size of
the back, so this misconception probably comes from
confusing an increase in back size with an increase in
cup size. The only way to increase your breast size is
by gaining fat or getting breast implants.

Womens Weight Training Myth #3
Weight training makes you stiff and muscle-bound.
If you perform all exercises through their full range of
motion, fexibility will increase. Exercises like fyes,
stiff-legged deadlifts, dumbbell presses, and chin-ups
stretch the muscle in the bottom range of the move-
ment. Therefore, by performing these exercises correct-
ly, your stretching capabilities
will increase.

Womens Weight Training
M y t h #4
I f you stop weight training
your muscl es turn into fat.
This is like say- ing that gold
can turn into
brass. Muscle
and fat are
two to-
tally different
types of tissue.
What happens many times
is that when people decide
to go off their weight train-
ing programs they start los-
ing muscle due to inactivity
(use it or lose it) and they
also usually drop the diet
as well. Therefore bad eat-
ing habits combined
with the fact that
their metabolism
is lower due to
i nact ivi t y, and lower degrees
of muscle mass, give the impression that the subjects
muscle is being turned into fat while in reality what is
happening is that muscle is being lost and fat is being
accumulated.

Womens Weight Training
Myth #5
Weight training turns fat into
muscle.
More alchemy. This is the
equivalent of saying that you
can turn any metal into gold;
dont we wish! The way a body
transformation occurs is by
gaining muscle through weight
training and losing fat through aerobics and diet si-
multaneously. Again, muscle and fat are very different
types of tissue. We cannot turn one into the other.
Womens Weight Training Myth #6
As long as you exercise you can eat anything that
you want.
I wish this were true! However, this could not be
further from the truth. Our individual metabolism de-
termines how many calories we burn at rest and while
we exercise. If we eat more calories than we burn on a
consistent basis, our bodies will accumulate these extra
calories as fat regardless of the amount of exercise that
we do. This myth may have been created by people
with such high metabolic rates (hardgainers) that no
matter how much they eat or what they eat, they rarely
meet or exceed the amount of calories that they burn in
one day unless they put their mind to doing so. There-
fore, their bodyweight either remains stable or goes
down.

Womens Weight Training Myth #7
Women only need to do cardio and if they decide
to lift weights, they should be very light.
First of all, if you only did cardio then muscle and
fat would be burned for fuel. A woman needs to do
weights in order to get the muscle building machine
going and thus prevent any loss of muscle tissue. Keep
in mind also that the muscle gained through weight
training will ultimately be responsible for toning your
physique.
Women that only concentrate
on cardio will have a very hard
time achieving the look that they
want. As far as the lifting of very
light weights, this is just more
nonsense. Muscle responds to
resistance and if the resistance
is too light, then there will be no
reason for the body to change.
womens
weightraining
The myths about womens weight training and female body-
building do not ever seem to go away. My goal with this arti-
cle is to share the real facts about girls and the weight room.
truth #1
Women Shoul d Trai n Hard
I have trained with girls that train
as hard as I do and they look noth-
ing but feminine. If you want to
look great, dont be afraid to pick
up the weights and lift hard!

Choose any type of cardiovascular activity that you
enjoy such as recumbent bike, walking outside or on
a treadmill, elliptical machine, stair climber, etc. In
order for aerobic exercise to be effective, it needs to be
performed within the fat burning zone. The fat burning
zone is the zone at which you are doing enough work to
burn fat. Your pulse (how fast your heart is beating per
minute) determines this zone.
The fat burning zone formula is the following:
Fat burning zone=220-(Your Age) x (.7)
The result of your formula will give you an approximate value of how fast your
heart should be beating per minute.
For example, a 20-year-old would need to reach a pulse in the neighborhood of 10
beats per minute in order to be in the fat burning zone. It is important to remember
that this is not an absolute fgure, this is an approximation. So as long as you
are plus or minus 10 beats from the number that the formula provides
you with, then you are doing alright.

T
he time is ripe for a change for
the new generation of ftness
athletes and models. The need
for achievable physiques with a whole
lot of sex appeal without the use of en-
hancement drugs that gives the major-
ity of todays athletes an unmarketable
look. The Answer is here. FAME. On
December 200 I made the commitment
to join forces with FAME to represent
our future Athletes and this Organization
to create a fair
playing feld
for all athletes.
From ftness,
fgure, body-
building and
ftness models, both male and female
we are going to bring back protocols of
judging for symmetry and aesthetics.
My involvement with FAME is to in-
crease athlete participation, and to speak
for athletes that want to beneft from
their efforts and make this sport their
career. My goal is to help create an or-
ganization that boasts a fair playing feld
for the athletes, one that brings back the
sex appeal, health and aesthetics to the
sport that has been missing for the past
ten years. My involvement is to help cre-
ate a platform to launch new categories
of athletes, from bodybuilders
to Fitness Models. A platform
that will allow the athletes to
develop lucrative careers, Get
FAME magazine exposure,
maintain their health, and be-
come positive role models for
the future.
As a Pro athlete I com-
peted for over thirteen years
as well as for
seven years as an amateur winning
teenage Mr. Florida, Jr. Nationals and
Teen Mr. USA. I had the opportunity
to compete with the worlds best, and
was honored to win the Mens Open
Mr. USA, the Mr. America, achieved
two world records, competed in the
IFBB Mr. Olympia, and The Arnold
Classic.. I have been blessed with a long
and fruitful career as a Weider cover
model, writer and currently listed as
Joe Weiders Bodybuilding Historian. I
have seen the sport I love and devoted
my life to change drastically, to the
point that I gave up my contract and quit
competing. My main goal in life is to
represent our future athletes by clean-
ing up the sport and paving the way for
it to become more than a hobby to the
dedicated athletes and allow them the
opportunity to make a living from their
efforts. I want to see todays athletes take
advantage of a healthy lucrative career
on a fair playing feld judged right!!! I
am excited about the re-launch of the
FAME Fitness Employment and Model

Most liquid detergents do not target embedded odors and when gym clothes
are washed, these odors that are caused by bacteria attracted to sweat soaked
fabric stay embedded in the fbers. After a few workouts, even the best high
tech fabrics typically develop a musty odor.
Using a scientifcally formulated formula, WINs super oxygenated system
directly targets this issue oxidizing the offensive odors and stains. This
unique oxy cleaning power eliminates the colored bodies from stains
while removing the embedded sweat molecules that fuel the odors that
overwhelm the fabric. Simultaneously, these ingredients also react with
soil and organic materials in the wash causing them to either decolorize
or disintegrate. Once in a soluble form after oxidization, WINs surfactant
system washes them away.
This provides unmatched performance and effcacy;
Two sets of independent laboratory testing indicate that WIN outperforms
the leading detergents and specialty products on removing sweat and odors
from all fabrics.
WIN is formulated to be safe and gentle for all colors and fabrics and works
for traditional and high effciency machine or hand washing.
PROdUCT USAGE
WIN Detergent is safe for use on all
colors and fabrics.
WIN Detergent works equally well in

A
fter 10 years of competing, and four
Top fnishes, New England ftness
star Dawn Butterfeld has fnally won
the Fitness America Pageant. Follow-
ing her disappointing fnish at last years Fitness
Universe Pageant in Miami, she soften her body,
polished the same routine and narrowly won the
show.
Following FUP, Dawn was shattered and com-
mented, Ive dreamed about this day but honestly
thought it would never come at this point in my ca-
reer. I am honored. And, it was a win well deserved
but a tough one considering that Dawn placed fourth
in the Fitness Round behind world class competitors
like FUP Champ Sheri Vucick, Canadian sensation
Vanda Hadarean and New England phenom Nikki
Bongiovanni.
In the Swimsuit Round, where Dawn brought
a new, softer and sexier look to the stage, and in
the Interview Round, she scored frst. One of the
most cherished parts of the show was when she
was announced the winner, the entire group of
competitors cheered for Dawn in recognition of
her great performance but, as well, her years of
perseverance and commitment to becoming the
worlds #1 ftness star.
When ftness star Vanda Hadarean took the
stage, you knew there was something more than
special about her. Her incredible body moves,
precision athletic prowess, effusive personality
and overall beauty. The , 112 lbs. Canadian
gymnastic coach demonstrated one of the most
dynamic performances ever seen on the FAP stage.
So superb was Vanda that she earned the highest
score in the Fitness Round and 2nd Place in the
Swimsuit Round. So, how did this former Roma-
nian, European and Olympic gymnastic medalist
fnish in rd Place? Vanda told us that not being a
native English speaker, she had a tough time with
the Interview Round. I really blew it!, she said.
Yes, even with just 10% of the total weighed score,
the interview is so important in selecting the overall
winner at all Fitness Universe Series shows.
Dawn, Vanda, Sheri, Nikki and many other
world class ftness stars will be competing at the
Fitness Universe Pageant being held on June 22-2
in Miami. Also being held will be the Ms. Bikini,
Figure and Model Universe and exclusive coverage

Natural Muscle March 2007


1) You must create a slight calorie defcit in
order to lose body fat.
The most effective way to do this is to exercise and con-
trol the number of calories you ingest each day. Get use
to knowing the number of calories that are contained in
everything you eat. This is made easy for us with nutri-
tion labels on store bought food and nutritional informa-
tion sheets available at most fast food restaurants.
2) You must feed your body smaller meals
every 2-3 hours throughout the day.
Eating this way compared to the normal meals a day
increases your metabolic rate signifcantly. It also pre-
vents you from ever getting too hungry, which is when
you are most likely to go off of your nutrition plan and
consume too many calories.
3) Every one of your small meals throughout
the day should contain a source of high quality
protein, carbohydrates, and good fat, with the
exception of post workout meals, which should
consist of fast digesting carbohydrates and pro-
teins and very little or no fat.
High quality meal replacements are a great way to
supplement several of your meals during the day.
4) Drink enough water every single day.
Having adequate water enables your body to function
properly, including its ability to burn fat. Water also
fushes toxins and impurities from the body.
5) Always incorporate weight training and
cardiovascular exercise into your fat loss
nutrition plan.
6) Use the power of vegetables to help you
reach your goals.
Vegetables are the most nutrient dense food around
meaning that you can eat a tremendous quantity of veg-
etables and consume very few calories. The high fber
content of vegetables also causes your body to work
very hard just to digest the vegetables, which means that
the calories you do consume are all burned up just in the
digestion process. So, in turn, vegetables are negative
calories! If you get hungry you can always add more
vegetables with no fear of hurting your fat loss efforts
(Fried okra does not count!)
7) Pick a nutrition plan that you can live with
and that you have faith in.
If you cannot consistently follow a nutritional program
then you will never have success with it. A good rule to
remember is that any diet that you eventually come off
of will fail in the long run. To have success you must
incorporate a nutritional program that you can follow for
the rest of your life. This requires a lifestyle change and
commitment on your part. It is also important that you
have faith and confdence in your fat loss nutrition pro-
gram. If you do not truly believe that something is going
to work for you, then you will not stick with it.
8) Cheat if you want to, but know the conse-
quences of excessive overindulgence.
Having a cheat day or cheat meal every week or every
two week, in which you allow yourself to eat whatever
food you are craving, is a great way to help you stick with
your nutritional program. Cheat days give us a mental
break and allow us to enjoy some of our favorite foods so
that we do not feel deprived. However, dont fool yourself
into thinking that your body needs these cheat days, and
be careful of the quantity of food you eat on your cheat
day. If your cheat meal turns into a full day of pigging-
out on everything in sight then you can easily undo all of
the hard work you put in the week before.
9) Keep your eye on the prize.
Eating to lose body fat is tough. I am not going to lie
and say it isnt. There will undoubtedly be times when
you feel like giving up and accepting the fact that you can
never achieve your ideal physique and level of health and
ftness. When you feel like this take a couple of minutes
to remind yourself exactly why you are doing it. Think
of how awesome it is going to feel when you fnally do
reach your goals. Trust me, when you achieve your fat
loss goals and reach a new level of health and ftness, it
will be well-worth the sacrifce you had to make along
the way.
10) Be consistent and never give up.
Permanent fat loss requires a lifelong commitment to
eating healthier and exercising. Dont become frustrated
or give up if you do not seem to be reaching your goals
as quickly as you would like. Achieving the body and
level of ftness you desire takes time and consistency. If
you mess up on your nutrition plan dont beat yourself
up. Instead, get right back to it and keep making progress
because with enough determination and desire you WILL
eventually get there.
Think about it; not too many things in life are guaranteed. Often times we have to put a
lot of work into something without knowing whether our effort will pay off in the end. This
is just part of life, but with fat loss we know we will be successful as long as we have a
solid plan in place and as long as we stick to that plan. The sticking to it is usually the
part we have the most trouble with. It can be diffcult to stay on a fat loss eating plan, but
it becomes a little easier when you consistently remind yourself that a leaner you is right
around the corner if you just stick with it. You are probably already familiar with some
or even all of these laws. If that is the case then now it is just a matter of bringing it all
together and DOING IT!

fat burners out there, chances are they didnt
get the job done the way they said they would.
Theres a good reason all of those pills are
made for men. Seriously, every single one.
And this is where we are denitely not equal,
because women and men handle and store fat
differently. Its just a scientic fact. So why isnt
there a competition-strength fat burner made
for women?
Finally there is! Its the rst truly hardcore fat

This is a fat
burner strong enough for a bodybuilder. A fat
burner backed by clinical research. This one-
of-a-kind fat-loss program overcomes the
challenges that prevent women from losing
weight and from getting solid.
SLIMQUICK LABORATORIES researchers have
spent countless hours determining how to
maximize fat loss for the female physiology.
Part of that expertise is understanding the
unique challenges that make it so hard for
women to lose weight versus men.
1st Challenge Problem areas:
Thigh, abs and glutes. Its not fair but science
proves women are naturally cursed to
accumulate fat in problem areas. As a matter
of fact, its been shown women have 40%
more leg fat than men.*
2nd Challenge Visible fat:
Did you know there is hidden fat, and visible
fat? The female body is naturally inclined to
have a much higher percentage of fat stored in
the visible area under the skin (subcutaneous).
Males tend to have hidden fat, by accumulating
it within the body. So while men store only
25% of their fat in visible areas, women store
an astounding 40%! Add in the fact that the
visible fat cells in women are larger than the
hidden fat cells, giving them a larger visible
storage capacity, the scales have literally been
tipped to increased cell volume as women
gain weight.*
3rd Challenge Inefcient fat
burning:
Women are not as naturally efcient at burning
fat as men. As overall fat mass of the body
increases, muscle becomes more inefcient at
using fat. This causes your body to store more
fat, while lipolysis (fat breakdown) decreases.
This creates a vicious cycle of weight gain that
is extremely difcult to overcome.

The Hardcore Science behind SLIMQUICK EXTREME
The 12 pathways to true female fat loss
While most hardcore fat burners work on 4 or even 5 fat-loss pathways, SLIMQUICK EXTREME targets 12 specic pathways, forcing your body to
maximize fat loss. Heres why SLIMQUICK EXTREME is about to revolutionize the way women burn fat.
1st Pathway:
Superior fat oxidation
Fats are oxidized to provide us with the
energy that fuels our bodies in a process
known as `-oxidation. SLIMQUICK EXTREME
boosts `-oxidation, increasing the amount
of triglycerides, the storage form of fat, that
are broken down into component parts. These
components are then used as energy to fuel
all physiological processes.
2nd Pathway: Inhibit the
creation of fatty acids
Fatty Acid Synthase is a protein that helps
create fatty acids, which are the main
component of triglycerides, the storage
form of fat. SLIMQUICK EXTREME inhibits
the creation of fatty acids decreasing
the amount of fat that can be stored.
And of course, when less fat is stored,
less fat is gained.
3rd Pathway: Increase fat
burning hormones
Norepinephrine (NE) is the key fat-
burning hormone. Norepinephrine is
responsible for stimulating the `-
adrenergic receptors that are located
on fat cells. SLIMQUICK EXTREME uses
ingredients that have been shown to
elevate norepinephrine levels up to 56%
4
to dramatically increase fat breakdown.
4th Pathway: Ignite the cells
fat-burning process
Stimulating the `-adrenergic receptors of fat
cells causes a saturation of the messenger
hormone responsible for starting the
breakdown of stored fat. SLIMQUICK EXTREME
increases this process, ensuring more fat is
burned as energy.
5th Pathway: Keep fat-burning
signals maximized
The surface of fat cells contains _-adrenergic
receptors. When stimulated, they signal the cell
to reduce lipolysis, or in other words slow the
breakdown of fat. By inhibiting _-adrenergic
receptor stimulation SLIMQUICK EXTREME
ensures that the fat-burning signal remains
continuous. This process also increases the
levels of available norepinephrine, which is
vital to lipolysis.
6th Pathway: Block COMT
to keep burning fat
COMT is the enzyme involved in the breakdown
of norepinephrine, the key fat-burning
hormone. SLIMQUICK EXTREME inhibits
COMT performance to ensure the fat burning
process isnt stopped before it starts.
7th Pathway: Intensify
the breakdown of stored fat
Cyclic AMP is responsible for triggering the
processes responsible for the breakdown of
stored fat within the fat cell. cAMP also slows
the process by which fatty acids are produced.
By ramping up cAMP within fat cells, SLIMQUICK
EXTREME breaks down the storage form of fat,
called triglycerides. This breakdown releases
components into the bloodstream that are
used by your body as energy.
8th Pathway: Optimize thyroid
function to obliterate fat
The function of the thyroid is to take iodine
found in many foods and convert basic
thyroid hormone (T4) into the active thyroid
hormone (T3). Active thyroid hormones tell the
cell how many calories it needs to burn, and
keep burning, even when at rest. SLIMQUICK
EXTREME optimizes the thyroid to make certain
it is working efciently and calories are always
being burned. This ensures your body is
burning more calories even at rest, while also
providing elevated energy levels.
9th Pathway: Enhance mental
focus and performance
SLIMQUICK EXTREME contains nootropics,
which boost the functions and capacities of
the brain. While this does not strictly
deal with the fat burning process,
nootropics enhance the mental focus
and clarity needed for intense training
and cardio.
10th Pathway:
Shed excess water
SLIMQUICK EXTREME has a mild
diuretic effect to help decrease the
volume of extracellular uid (ECF), or
the uid between cells. By reducing
bloating and excess water retention,
you can achieve the ripped physique
that will show off all your hard work
and help you look your best.
11th Pathway:
Burn off calories as heat
Thermogenesis is the process by which the
body generates heat by increasing the
metabolic rate to levels above normal.
SLIMQUICK EXTREME increases the production
of heat on the cellular level to burn more
calories. This results in increased fat usage.
12th Pathway:
Depose of excess energy
Uncoupling proteins work within the cells
mitochondria to move excess energy into
mitochondrial inner membrane. It releases
that energy as heat, preventing it from being
used to create the storage form of fat.

COMT

the creation of fatty acids decreasing
the amount of fat that can be stored.
And of course, when less fat is stored,
less fat is gained.
3rd Pathway: Increase fat
burning hormones
Norepinephrine (NE) is the key fat-
burning hormone. Norepinephrine is
responsible for stimulating the `-
adrenergic receptors that are located
on fat cells. SLIMQUICK EXTREME uses
ingredients that have been shown to
elevate norepinephrine levels up to 56%
4
to dramatically increase fat breakdown.
4th Pathway: Ignite the cells
fat-burning process
Stimulating the `-adrenergic receptors of fat
cells causes a saturation of the messenger
hormone responsible for starting the
breakdown of stored fat. SLIMQUICK EXTREME
increases this process, ensuring more fat is
burned as energy.
5th Pathway: Keep fat-burning
signals maximized
The surface of fat cells contains _-adrenergic
receptors. When stimulated, they signal the cell
to reduce lipolysis, or in other words slow the
breakdown of fat. By inhibiting _-adrenergic
receptor stimulation SLIMQUICK EXTREME
ensures that the fat-burning signal remains
continuous. This process also increases the
levels of available norepinephrine, which is
vital to lipolysis.
6th Pathway: Block COMT
to keep burning fat
COMT is the enzyme involved in the breakdown
of norepinephrine, the key fat-burning
hormone. SLIMQUICK EXTREME inhibits
COMT performance to ensure the fat burning
process isnt stopped before it starts.
7th Pathway: Intensify
the breakdown of stored fat
Cyclic AMP is responsible for triggering the
processes responsible for the breakdown of
stored fat within the fat cell. cAMP also slows
the process by which fatty acids are produced.
By ramping up cAMP within fat cells, SLIMQUICK
EXTREME breaks down the storage form of fat,
called triglycerides. This breakdown releases
components into the bloodstream that are
used by your body as energy.
8th Pathway: Optimize thyroid
function to obliterate fat
The function of the thyroid is to take iodine
found in many foods and convert basic
thyroid hormone (T4) into the active thyroid
hormone (T3). Active thyroid hormones tell the
cell how many calories it needs to burn, and
keep burning, even when at rest. SLIMQUICK
EXTREME optimizes the thyroid to make certain
it is working efciently and calories are always
being burned. This ensures your body is
burning more calories even at rest, while also
providing elevated energy levels.
9th Pathway: Enhance mental
focus and performance
SLIMQUICK EXTREME contains nootropics,
which boost the functions and capacities of
the brain. While this does not strictly
deal with the fat burning process,
nootropics enhance the mental focus
and clarity needed for intense training
and cardio.
10th Pathway:
Shed excess water
SLIMQUICK EXTREME has a mild
diuretic effect to help decrease the
volume of extracellular uid (ECF), or
the uid between cells. By reducing
bloating and excess water retention,
you can achieve the ripped physique
that will show off all your hard work
and help you look your best.
11th Pathway:
Burn off calories as heat
Thermogenesis is the process by which the
body generates heat by increasing the
metabolic rate to levels above normal.
SLIMQUICK EXTREME increases the production
of heat on the cellular level to burn more
calories. This results in increased fat usage.
12th Pathway:
Depose of excess energy
Uncoupling proteins work within the cells
mitochondria to move excess energy into
mitochondrial inner membrane. It releases
that energy as heat, preventing it from being
used to create the storage form of fat.
Norepinephrine
COMT
Cyclic AMP

For maximum results you need your fat burner


to go to work right away not one hour later.
By developing SLIMQUICK EXTREMEs formula as
a liquid gel, it releases more than 200% faster
than caplets.

That gets SLIMQUICK EXTREMEs
competition-strength formula into your system to
attack fat in record time. Youll feel SLIMQUICK
EXTREME working for you in minutes.
At SLIMQUICK LABORATORIES each formulation
starts by investigating the clinical results on all
ingredients that can maximize fat loss. But that
is only the beginning. SLIMQUICK LABORATORIES
researchers know its important to test the product
itself, not to rely simply on research papers.
SLIMQUICK LABORATORIES submitted the core
ingredients in SLIMQUICK EXTREME for double-
blind clinical trials on female subjects. And the
results were amazing.
SLIMQUICK EXTREMEs core ingredients helped
exercising subjects burn 5.8 times as many
calories
3
, compared to exercising subjects who
only took a placebo. Thats a massive increase
in calories burned. The studys conclusion was
that the key ingredients in SLIMQUICK EXTREME
effectively increase metabolism while youre at
rest and during exercise.
There also was a bonus result. The rate of
perceived exertion dropped for the women who
used SLIMQUICK EXTREME. That means that
even though they were burning more calories,
the women felt like they were doing less work.
Imagine how many more calories you can burn
by adding new SLIMQUICK EXTREME to your
hardcore program.
Another clinical study on a core ingredient
of SLIMQUICK EXTREME produced the kind of
results that most female athletes dream about
fat loss without muscle loss. As a tness diva
or competitor you know how hard it is to put on
muscle, and the thought of losing muscle while
getting lean is painful. Computed tomography
scanning, the most accurate body composition
testing method possible, determined the exact
amount of fat versus lean tissue for each person
in the study. At the end of the study those taking a
core ingredient in SLIMQUICK EXTREME dropped
their body fat by 10% without a signicant
drop in their muscle mass. Thats an amazing
7.4% more fat loss than people in the control
group!

SLIMQUICK EXTREMEs ultra-potent formula is
backed by science and innovative ingredients
specically designed to target female weight
loss. But the fat-loss potential doesnt stop there.
Every box also includes the SLIMQUICK EXTREME
Fat-Loss Program, a 24-page hardcore training
program designed for maximum fat burning and
targeting those problem areas thighs, abs and
glutes. The program was developed with the help
of Champion Fitness Competitor Allison Ethier.
This style of diet and training helped her dominate
the stage and win titles. The professional-level
program includes target training, an extreme
cardio program, and meal plans to help you
sculpt your perfect body. It details everything you
need to take your conditioning to the next level.

Dr. Darren Burke, PhD is Director of
Research & Development of SLIMQUICK
LABORATORIES. A tenured associate
professor in the Department of Human
Kinetics and Biology at St. Francis Xavier
University, he is also the Chair of the Atlantic
Society for Exercise Physiology (CSEP)
Health and Fitness Program. Additionally,
Dr. Burke is a Certied Exercise Physiologist
and strength and conditioning consultant
for several varsity teams and elite athletes.
We interviewed Dr. Burke to get his insight
on how SLIMQUICK EXTREME works.
Q: Why even create a hardcore
fat burner for women?
A: Most gure and tness competitors
have tried many different diet pills. And Im
not surprised to hear theyre disappointed
by the results. Most of them end up using
what the guys at the gym are using. But
thats not a good idea. Those pills are made
for men whose physiological make-up is
very different from women. But SLIMQUICK
EXTREME is expressly formulated for
hardcore female athletes. It works with their
bodies to help them quickly drop pounds
with their diet and training.
Q: Was it hard to formulate
SLIMQUICK EXTREME?
A: It was a real challenge. My team
investigated a signicant number of
ingredients and formulations. It took
patience and some real dedication but
it all paid off with SLIMQUICK EXTREME.
Weve incorporated some truly innovative
ingredients. Were the rst to maximize
the levels of Yohimbe in a female diet pill.
Plus we use two types. One goes to work
immediately, the other has an eight-hour
half life that allows for a time-release
effect over the course of the day. Im also
excited about our four unique ingredients
Sesamin, Tuber Fleece Flower, Loranthus
and Pu-erh Tea. They signify a breakthrough
by working on the enzymatic levels that
effect fat storage and breakdown. I havent
been able to nd any other product that
uses them, or works in quite the same way.
Q: Why did you have SLIMQUICK
EXTREME clinically tested?
A: It was important to get a clinical done
on the core formula of SLIMQUICK EXTREME.
You need to see how its going to work in
the real world. And I have to say SLIMQUICK
EXTREME exceeded my expectations.
We expected a sizable increase in the
calories burned, but when the numbers
for SLIMQUICK EXTREME were revealed,
I was thrilled! When the results showed
exercising women burned 5.8 times the
calories, I realized SLIMQUICK EXTREME
represented an astounding breakthrough in
fat-loss science.

00, Miami, attending Fitness Universe, I
found myself sitting next to Megan Hoffman, a tall,
blue-eyed brunette while waiting to shoot another
brown eyed brunette, Danielle McGlynn I have
spent many years cultivating such spontaneous coincidences.
The next day I shot Megan and we began a friendship I hope last
many years. The next few months passed and proved particu-
larly eventful: Mitch and Megan were married; honeymooned
in Maui; opened a new business; and visited Virginia to do her
portfolio, headshots and comp cards with me.
Megan clearly intrigued me from hello and I discovered
Mitchs Dad was a fellow Tarheel baseball player at the same
time I attended UNC. (Incidentally, you Florida fans, March
Madness approaches, I predict the Gators take on the Tarheel
Nation for the National Championship! Heels win!) OK back
to the story line! I lined up Megan in my camera lens: the
more I shot, the more wanted to shoot. And the more I fashed
before me, the more I saw her amazing versatility! Megans on-
camera personality is schizophrenic: she be the-girl-next-door
one moment; and with the next look, a high fashion stunning
model. Megan is both down-home and up-town sensational!

Megan Hoffman
What do you consider your great-
est lesson learned?
I am learning that everything is a process:
planning, preparation, & hard-work go
into almost everything! Results are not
usually immediate, & the result you get
the 1st time, might not even be what you
wanted. Trial & error, patience, & per-
sistence are really the true virtues. The
process is my journey. I am learning to
look forward to enjoying my journey.
Is there anyone you would like
to thank?
I am grateful for my husband, Mitch. He
has always supported absolutely every-
thing I do - whether attending the lacrosse
games I coach, being at the fnish line of a
race, sitting through a -hr competition, or
nurturing my desire to do a lot of charity
work - HEs THERE!
What do you consider your great-
est triumph(s);
I fnished high school in years. I had
always been an overachiever. I took 2
years of math together & placing out of
sciences. For some reason, other kids
were really cruel & even brutally mean to
me; therefore, instead of hanging around
for another year of torture, I fnished all
my classes and left. I started at a com-
munity college that fall & stayed for a
year before going away to college. All of
this was diffcult! Your senior year is sup-
posed to be so memorable. I couldnt play
sports & had to get special permission to
go to prom. Nevertheless, I grew strong
enough at 1 to remove myself from the
negative environment & survive college
at such a young age.
What do you do for a living?
My husband & I own Bobby Valentines
Sports Academy in Stamford, CT, (www.
bobbyvacademy.com) Its an all-sports
academy geared towards baseball & soft-
ball, but we also offer conditioning/train-
ing for the athlete of all ages. I also own
FitStyle, our motto is Mental, Emotional,
& Physical movement to reach the best
you! FitStyle is a combination of lifestyle
coaching, menu selection, & motivational
support. More information can be found
at, www.meganhoffman.com, click on
MLH FitStyle.
How/Why did you get involved in
ftness?
Ive been an athlete my whole life: gym-
nastics at age , playing college lacrosse,
teaching spin & personal training, & now
coaching girls youth lacrosse in New
Canaan, CT. I truly have never known
anything else. My journey in life so far
hasnt been easiest, sports & ftness has
served as my outlet and my classroom.
Who infuenced you the most ath-
letically, Academically?
All the female athletes, gymnasts, track
stars, tennis players, & golfers I watched
on TV growing up. They were both femi-
nine & as athletic any male- I wanted to
be just like all of them.
Who do you admire the most?
Male?
Lance Armstrong. Lance is fercely com-
petitive & determined. He looked death
in the face, told him to bug-off! Later he
became the single most dominating male
in professional sports. I also admire his
drive to raise millions through his founda-
tion for cancer research.
Female?
Maria Navratilova. She broke every barrier
known to man, woman, & sport & did it
with pride, grace, & class.
Who do you want to emulate?
Athletically?
Kim Lyons & Heather Green. Kim was
once quoted as saying that she personally
does not prefer an overly developed chest
in women & works her chest with lighter
weights, & Heather said that after trying
to tone in down for the bikini class she
decided to give fgure a try. Both women
have refused to squeeze into a particular
mold & stayed true to themselves & their
bodies, while still being incredibly suc-
cessful.
How do you want to be remembered
as an athlete?
Sweet, but fercely competitive. Ill help
you put tanner on, fx your hair, & share
workout tips- but dont let that fool you.
I expect a lot from myself (too much
sometimes) and I want to beat you when
Im out there.
Tell us something about
yourself that we would
not know?
I struggled with eating dis-
orders for 7 years. I was an-
orexic, bottoming out at 7lbs,
bulimic, topped out at 17lbs,
& fnally decided to change
for myself and for my body,
because you cant do it right
any other way. It took +
years, but now I am healthy,
balanced, & more apprecia-
tive & protective of my body
& what I do to it.
What do you see that
is good in Fitness to-
day?
There are so many different
ways for women & girls to
pursue their sports or ftness goals and to
be taken seriously as athletes. Being able
to set goals, & then achieve them is such
a confdence & self-esteem builder. The
amount of scrutiny that women & girls
of all ages are subject to in terms of what
our bodies are supposed to look like is
ludicrous. Being ft & tons of ways to
pursue our individual goals is a great way
to insulate ourselves from the media & to
feel good inside & out!
What needs to change in Fitness
today, in your opinion?
Keep the change coming! Recently there
has been a boom in terms of getting ftness
out to people of all ages & backgrounds
& I think its awesome! Babies, Kids,
Teens, those overweight, the elderly, pre
& post-pregnancy- the programs that have
come out recently at the gym I workout
at, The Fitness Edge in Greenwich, CT
are reaching so many more people &
enhancing their lifestyles, or as I like to
say, FitStyles.
What is your passion? What
makes you tick?
Charity work & volunteering will always
be a part of my journey. Not only does
our sports academy have a non-proft por-
tion, but I also sit on the board of the JBI
Foundation, we organize an annual golf
tournament to raise money for various
organizations. This years recipient was
MADD, we raised over $20,000. Also, The
Irving Moorin Scholarship Fund, provides
otherwise unable kids the opportunity to
pursue college educations.
Sum up your philosophy of ftness/
athletes in one sentence, what
would it be?
Winston Churchill said it best, Never,
never, never, never, never give up! Once
you give up you are beaten! And I dont
want to be beaten by anyone!stand up for
what you believe in, then you are never
wrong.

overcoming
burnout
by Brenda Kelly
Dear Brenda,
I have a question for you; did you
ever experience burnout while you
were competing? I just have no
urge to workout or eat anything
even close to being clean anymore.
I just dont feel like dealing with
it. The thought of doing any more
shows makes my want to scream.
It was a long year I know, but I am
beginning to wonder if my passion
will ever come back. I have never,
ever in my life, not wanted to
workout. It used to be my cure-
all, it could solve ANY problem.
I would go to the gym upset, and
leave feeling refreshed. I have no
energy; I do not feel like myself
anymore and am sad all of the time.
I am getting blood work done for a
variety of issues; they think I may
have adrenal fatigue or depression.
What is going on? I dont want to
gain 20 lbs so I have been doing
better (I have only put on since
my last show in September-the
North American). I just want to get
my motivation and desire to push
myself hard, back again. I guess
I will just have to wait and see.
Right now, primarily I am rebuild-
ing relationships and focusing on
school and my grades.
Any advice or opinion is ap-
preciated. I love your optimistic
attitude about everything.
Becca
F
irst I want to tell you, you are not
alone! From time to time I go
through this type of re-evaluation
and balance in my life as well. I believe it
is healthy to pause and refect without the
added stress of having to hit a lifting/car-
dio/diet regime perfectly.
Many athletes and competitors have told
me they have had similar types of the
burnout experiences you mentioned so I
know these feelings must be more common
than we may think.
When we put our minds and bodies through
the riggers of a competition lifestyle, we
naturally tend to put more focus into an
UN balanced everyday game plan. It is
to your beneft to vary your program with
different schedules. Sometimes this means
NOT having a set schedule! You must have
instinctively known this, so it is why you
wisely said in your letter you are rebuilding
some relationships and focusing on school.
Good for you! This is correct. You are sup-
posed to have other interests and priorities
that compliment your workout/competition
lifestyle. This will end up completing your
life to help you be available for more op-
portunities.
Remember, even the most serious PROS
allow themselves an off-season. There are
some exceptions of course, but vary few.
After rising to the top, most know that fnd-
ing a balance can be critical to obtain the
mindset for a long, happy and successful
career. A real competitor puts heart and
soul into contest preps and you are a real
athlete, Becca. You put as much as you
possibly can into yoursI have seen this
and it shows by the dedication and great
strides you have made.
After a complete check up by your doctor
to make sure you are not suffering from
some ailment or deficient in anything,
allow yourself the permission to add
dimension to your life so you can fulfll
your dreams the smart way.
Here are some great ways to over-
come burn out.
1.Give yourself a break!
This is why people go on vacation from
work. It brings them around to a different
mindset and when they return, they are
more motivated to dive into their everyday
projects.
2.Try another sport.
The rut of doing everything in the
same order with the same things
can get to all of us. Mix
it up! What about a
different cardio
program? If you
usually get on
a machine with
your headset, try
a group exercise
class or how about going
outside with a buddy for a
power walk?
3.Journal.
Sometimes we just need to
clear out our brains. Pour-
ing your feelings out on
paper or onto your com-
puter will work towards
your own sanity. There is
no need to share this with
anyone. Great minds
swear by this
method of get-
ting unstuck.
Try it even if
you feel weird doing
it at frst.

ever experience
burnout while you
were competing?
4.Act as if.
Give yourself a deadline and stick to itno
matter what. Many times we procrastinate
only to fnd if we just buckle down and
do the deed, we feel empowered. Guess
what? One deed done leads to another and
another and pretty soon you have created
a good habit.
5.Gratitude! Gratitude! Gratitude!
Remind yourself of all of the blessings
in your life. Put yourself into perspective
with the universe. Do you have enough
of lifes essentials? Are you breathing? Is
your heart beating? Are you healthy?
Do you have clothes and food? Life
is good.
6.Accept yourself.
All is well and happening
in the time it is meant to.
Nothing is by accident. You
will be able to relax
into your life the
more you real-
ize this. Stay
positive and
positive will
be drawn to
you.
