The #1 Biggest Mistake That 99% of Guys at the Gym Make and How to Fix It

You, I and everyone else you know go to the gym because it makes us feel good.

Even more importantly, we go because it makes us look good. You wouldn’t go to the gym if somehow it made you look worse. So what is the specific look that you’re trying to achieve? Most guys have an idea of what they want to look like, but can’t pin it down to an exact size or shape. They just know there is some room for improvement.

Without a specific goal, how will you ever know if your workout is getting you closer to the shape you want? This is the mistake everyone is making. Going to the gym and working out with no specific goal. Most workouts are a mix of bodybuilding, powerlifting and some form of cardio. Each of these workout styles have their own specific goals that don’t necessarily add up to making you look better.

The bodybuilding mantra of ‘bigger is better’ isn’t right. Most women don’t find overly muscled guys attractive and most huge guys are just insecure. They feel the need to be big because they think it will give get them “respect”. It’s blatantly obvious when guys are working out to compensate for a lack of Social Status.

Powerlifting will make you strong, but it’ll end up turning you into a barrel shape. I’m sure this isn’t quite the look you’re going for.

Excessive cardio will just make you look skinny and weak, and can actually eat away at your muscle mass.

Just any combination of these styles will never give you the results you want. Most guys don’t know how much of each to use and when to back off and when to go for more. To get what you want you need a careful and calculated balance of these workout methods. A specific goal and specific workout tailored to your individual strengths and weaknesses is the only way to be sure that you’re getting the results you want fast.

I’ve designed the Adonis Index Workout to combine the kinds of exercise you are already familiar with in specific, calculated proportions to make you look your best without falling into the traps of any particular style. With a specific goal, you can get to your best body shape. Without a specific goal you may never get there.

Think Looks Don't Matter? Think Again. Women love a man with a great body but HATE men with huge muscles. And although we DO like muscles on a man, there's a "golden" sweet spot that you need to be aware of.

And from where I am, there is that perception that guys who work out strictly only at the gym are probably gay and checking the other men there out. So, also run or row or play some actual sport.

Thanks for the advice!

If men go to the gym and just lift crap, they are idiots anyways.

im a bit of an expert in this area: I am representative for the company IBE and PHF that sells supplements/anabolics...i got to be their representative by proving i knew what i was doing in terms of bodybuilding. I am aproximately 205 lbs with a small percentage of bodyfat and trust me i sound buig but i am not at all considering arnold was 250lbs i am tiny at 205 compared to him. Anyways best ways to get a better body IMO would be by using the method of 3 sets of 8-12 reps per muscle group. Such exercise would cause optimum amount of muscle breakdown forcing the body to in turn cause protein synthasis which is the conversion of ingested protein into muscle fibers via hyperplasia and hypertrophy (mostly hypertrophy) once muscle mass has been added your ability to loose fat greatly increases as those bigger muscle require more nutrients and calories you can eat more and most of it will be "sucked" by your muscles since they are being trained so hard that they will demand most nutrients and calories ingested from your diet.

As for diet i reccomend a 55/15/30 of C:P:F
your consumption of macros should be 55% coming from carbs
15% coming from protein
30% from fats

this specific diet was proven to increase testosterone levels in males which is significant since testosterone is king when it comes to hormones that build muscle.

Anyways i hoped i helped someone with this bit if information if you guys need help hit me up i would gladly help you out.

See? Everybody knows that stuff =P. Id rather just lift crap.
