Fitness Model Tips For Lean & Toned Muscle with John Fit!

(Ahhh.. 4th of July! The beach.. The Smell of Barbeque.. The taste of Corona.. The Sound of Fireworks.. The Tan Lean Bodies Walking Through the Sand.. The Birds Chirping.. The Warmth of the Sun.. Making Plans for Fun with Friends and Family.. I Love the 4th of July.. Its a Great Day to Show off Your Hot Body!)

July 4th is exactly 28 days away, and for all my Non-US readers, this is a US “Independance Day” & sunshine date when our crazy Americans get to “let it all hang out” and have some fun! Since it does fall in the middle of the summertime, there will be more people in bathing suits & shirtless than any other date on the calendar.. My July 4th plans just got a face lift, as I’ve found out that I will be playing host to a number of college friends (To the Tune of about 10-15 East Coast Ft. Lauderale/Miami girls that will be rockin hot bodies when they get here! There will be some guys too, but ONLY because they didn’t listen when I told them to stay home! :)) I can’t wait! I’m also going to have some family in from out of town that I haven’t seen in a while.. July 4th is a day when I want to look great! Here’s a synopsis of where my bodies at now.. I weighed in this morning at 173 lbs. & I estimate my body fat is around 7.5-8%.. My stomach is really cut and looks great, but my body does look and feel really dry right now because I’ve been maintaining for about 2 months now.. I haven’t been trying to put on muscle, but I haven’t been cutting hard either.. Just trying to keep my leanness and maintain my size.. But, as I signed off of my last post, this week was the beginning of my “Add 5-7 Pounds of muscle to my frame” phase that should only take me about 4 weeks.. My new focus and date for this short term goal is July 4th.. I want to step out on the beach on the 4th of July @ 180 lbs, & at most 8% body fat.. That will leave me full in my “beach muscles” (Chest & Back), but still show off my cut abs and lean stomach.. Here’s my “Sexy-Time! For July 4th” routine and diet..

(Again.. Eye Candy For the Ladies.. But Motivation For The Guys! Nick Auger’s Really Lean, Balanced & Symmetrical, & Has a Great Beach Shape with Low Bodyfat..Attainable for Anyone w/ the Right Plan & Patience)

When I was in college, I went through the bodybuilding phase of trying to put on as much size as possible, seeing if I could grow my arms bigger than my head (tough task but I tried).. Attending Florida State University without a nice body wasn’t an option for me.. I mean, when you’re surrounded by 20,000 tan, beautiful, Florida women everyday, there’s a premium put on guys with ripped stomachs, and “stud-like” bodies.. Even though I have different goals now than “beefy muscles”, I’m glad I layed that foundation of muscle because my body will always have that density I talk so much about. Now, I can just focus on staying lean and being as organic as possible to create longevity in my health.. One of the Best Tools I use now to stay lean, by maintaining muscle even on a busy schedule, is an Upper/Lower Body Split Training Regimen. This plan breaks down enough fibrous tissue to stimulate lean muscle & symmetry on a time budget, but doesn’t carry the intensity of a bodybuilding split inducing over-training, &/or over-development of any one muscle.

Any workout plan is typically devised of 3 segments that have to performed congruently to get a lean and toned body.. Cardio, Diet, and Lifting Weights.. I feel diet is probably the most important of the 3, but  not one of the 3 facets can be left out, or you won’t reach your goal in the most efficient time. One of the most discussed debates in the fitness world is, how many reps do I perform to get lean & toned muscle. I’ve heard a number of different answers to this question, but I’ve thought, studied, and “felt” my way through to a solution that makes sense to me and has taken my body from soft, to lean & hard..

Girls with Hot Beach Bodies, like Guys with Hot Beach Bodies.. For a hot beach body, I need you to have lean & toned muscle with low body fat & no Bulkyness.. Let’s go get it!

I was the kid in junior high & high school that had shoulders resembling a clothes hanger, really sharp bony elbows, & when I’d sit down on my Mom’s lap she’d say, “John Fit.. Your bony ass is cutting into my leg”.. and she would rotate me to the other leg, and then back to the other leg, and then finally ask me to find my own seat.. haha.. I definitely wasn’t the thick kid in class that gave the really hard noogies & extreme headlocks.. But, I began to fill out as I grew older, & now my fast metabolism works totally to my advantage.. I can actually gain as much lean weight as I want now because I’m well studied with how my body type operates & gaining lean muscle now is very easy. I thought having a fast metabolism would plague my progress, but now I use it to my advantage to put on clean lean muscle without bulking. This keeps me lean all year & photoshoot ready. This article will lay out the plan I’ve used in the past to add “lean muscle ONLY, with no excess bodyfat”.

I think there’s a bit of confusion floating around the fitness community as to the difference between Skinny and Lean, and we need to get it all sorted out..

Skinny- Very little muscle mass, skin is laying on bone, neck tends to be thin like a Chicken (Also known as “Chicken Neck, or Pencil Neck”). This type of body typically has a weak immune system, and is suseptible to illness. This body isn’t necessarily low in bodyfat but is very weak in muscle and thin-boned.. Screech Powers and “The Skinny Pirate” From Pirates of the Carribean are prototypical Skinny Pencil Necks.. (I think I remember Zak actually calling screech a pencil neck..)
