If I had to rebuild a Lean Body from scratch...

These are the exact exercises I would do (bookmark this thread for the gym): Image
The Lean Body look isn't about getting massive.

It's about building:

• Toned Legs
• Defined Arms
• Broad Shoulders
• A Wide Upper Back
• A Strong Upper Chest
• Shredded Abs & Obliques

In perfect proportion. Let's jump in:
|| CHEST ||

For the Lean Body look, all parts of the chest are important.

But the upper chest is the emphasis:

• Dips 3xMAX (low)
• Flat DB Press 3x8-12
• Mid-Incline DB Press 3x6-8
• High-Incline DB Press 3x6-8
• Low-to-High Cable Fly 3x10-15 Image
|| SHOULDERS & ARMS||

Shoulders & arms get indirect work from Chest & Back.

Here's extra direct work (emphasis on mid-delts):

• Incline DB Curls 3x8-12
• DB Lateral Raise 4x10-15
• DB Overhead Press 3x6-8
• Cable Lateral Raise 4x10-15
• Overhead Tricep Extension 3x8-12 Image
|| BACK & TRAPS ||

A Wide Upper Back creates the V-taper. Here's how to get it:

• DB Shrugs 3x10-15
• Weighted Pull Ups 3x6-8
• Wide-Grip Pulldowns 3x8-12
• Underhand Pulldowns 3x8-12
• Overhand Supported Row 3x8-12
• Parallel Grip Supported Row 3x6-8 Image
||ABS & OBLIQUES||

The abs need to be trained hard like everything else:

• Machine Crunch 4x8-12
• Hanging Leg Raise 4xMAX
• Weighted Side Bend 4x10-15
• Cable Oblique Crunch 4x8-12 Image
||LEGS & GLUTES||

The Lean Body look isn't complete if you have chicken legs:

• Squat 3x6-8
• Leg Press 3x10-15
• Leg Extension 3x8-12
• Hamstring Curl 3x8-12
• Seated Calves 5x10-12
• Standing Calves 5x8-12
• Romanian Deadlift 3x6-8
• Bulgarian Split Squat 3x8-12 Image
This is a full week of training.

But make sure you organize it properly:

• Upper/Lower
• Push, Pull, Legs
• etc

Then progress reps or weights each week.

Lastly, lock in your nutrition & lifestyle to get lean:

1. Calorie Deficit
2. High Protein Diet
3. 8k+ steps a day
P.S. I'm looking for 2 more entrepreneurs or busy professionals to build a lean energetic body & champion-level confidence.

(all while eating the foods you love and training 1.5 hours a week)

DM me "90" and I'll get you all the details.

I still can't get over the fact that Creatine is associated with a reduced risk for depression, and boosted mood & cognition...

But people still think it's some sort of steroid.

Here are the facts on Creatine🧵 Image
Let me start off by telling you that creatine is NOT a steroid.

You don't need to "cycle" on and off it.

Your body makes it, and it is found in animal protein.

1 lb red meat = ~2 grams of creatine

2.5 lbs red meat = ~5 grams of creatine

It's a natural compound.
Studies show that people who consume less dietary creatine are more likely to be screened positive for depression. Image

Your visceral fat is destroying your organs and promoting your brain fog, low energy & anxiety.

Here are 7 ways you can shed that gut, get lean and take back control of your health: Image
What is visceral fat?

Visceral fat (known as 'hidden' fat) is fat stored deep inside the belly.

It wraps around your organs and makes your gut stick out.

It's incredibly dangerous because it produces toxic chemicals, even in thin people (skinny fat).
Visceral fat is a sign of metabolic syndrome which causes short & long-term problems like:

• Gout
• Stroke
• Cancer
• Anxiety
• Brain Fog
• Dementia
• Depression
• Liver disease
• Heart Disease
• Low Back Pain
• Type 2 Diabetes
• Low Testosterone
