"Stealth Abs"

When your ripped six pack is covered by a thick layer of fat.

This isn't a beer belly, it's my stealth abs. I just needed to avoid attracting too many ladies with my well defined stomach.

What are your priorities?

Coop — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 16:50:19 +0000

How did you start your day?

Did you get enough sleep last night?

Do you have healthy food choices on hand, or if you'll be eating out, do you know where you can eat healthy meals?

Will you be working out today? If so, what type of workout do you have planned?

Do you have time for some stretching, meditation, or other bodywork of some type?

What's for dinner?

Do you have a time in the evening when you disconnect from the online world?

Is your bedroom peaceful and conducive for sleep?

...What are your priorities, and how are you working towards them?

Are you serious about transformation? I’m not talking about polishing yourself, improving yourself, making things a bit better. I’m talking about the reset button, a reinvention that changes the game.

That means an overhaul in what you believe and how you do your job. If you’re up for that, then right here, right now, you can start.

- Seth Godin from his new book Linchpin

This is exactly what it takes to change your body too. Make the decision.

Training From Around the World

I am fascinated with training and manipulating diet to achieve body changes.

Here is a video which I came across of Aamir Khan's body transformation for a movie role. Even though some of it is not in English, the training, discipline, and the transformation are inspiring.
