G’day Shredders,

Breaking news! My video “84 Days In 48 Seconds” is now the No.1 search result for “weight loss” on Google Video…out of 35, 600 videos!

Google Video URL: “Weight Loss” 

http://video.google.com/videosearch?client=safari&rls=en&q=weight%20loss&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&um=1&sa=N&tab=wv#

As you probably realize, “weight loss” is an extremely generic search term in a highly competitive field so this is no easy task to land the No. 1 position.

What This Could Mean For You

There is a very good reason why I am mentioning this and why it could be significant for you…

RTP Shredders who successfully complete the 12 Week RTP Transformation Program (with 95% compliance to daily picture accountability) will learn all my secrets about how to produce and distribute a time lapse weight loss video for maximum exposure. 

Hint: There is a lot more to this video than meets the eye.

Your Very Own Time Lapse Video!

Not only would a time lapse video be a very cool keepsake for you to show your family and friends, it could also open the doors to fitness related opportunities and possible media exposure…who knows?!

Much more to be revealed about the forthcoming RTP Transformation System very soon…stay tuned!

Catch ya,

AJ

G’day Shredders,

Today I’d like to pay tribute to The Man who works tirelessly behind the scenes selflessly helping many Shredders achieve their physique transformation goals, Carlos DeJesus.

Carlos is not only a world champion natural bodybuilder, he is also an inventor, exercise therapist, personal trainer and life coach. In the months I have known Carlos he has been a rock of support for me as I write the RTP Transformation System and has helped me immensely with his expert advice.

My Mission 5 Training Partner…The Son Of Carlos!

In fact, you may remember Carlos from a previous blog post I wrote on Day 545: Meet My Friend…The Son Of Carlos where my Mission 5 “Training Partner”, arrived at my doorstep in Japan!

N.B. My M5 “Training Partner” is actually the world famous Quad Blaster, invented by Carlos DeJesus in 1974 which he used to train for and win the 1980 Virginia State Bodybuilding Championships, Mr. USA and Mr. North America in 1981, and the Natural-For-Life World Bodybuilding Championships in 1985.

Thank You Carlos

Thank you Carlos for all the help, support and expert advice you have selflessly given me and my fellow Shredders. You are truly a champion in every sense of the word.

G’day Shredders,

Today will be a quick post as I have come home late from work. It’s long story but I suffice to say, I turned a 2 hour train ride into a 3 hour journey…in both directions! 

Gotta hit the sack now…

Catch ya,

AJ

G’day Shredders,

Something weird is going on with yesterday’s Shredder Sunday #24 Video!

Judging by the comments I received to yesterday’s post the video would not play. The weird thing is that it plays fine for me, both on this blog and at the YouTube URL.

However, I do know something is not quite right because YouTube is not showing this video up on my Channel yet.

I’ll repost the video below. If you could let me know if either the embedded video or the URL is working for you that would be great. If not, I’ll have to contact YouTube and see what the problem is.

Cheers,

AJ

How To Join The ShredderSphere

G’day Shredders,

As you may know I have been working on the RTP Transformation System for the last 2 months. This System condenses 8 years of my knowledge and experience into a 7-Step Physique Transformation System conducted over a 12-Week period (a’ la Mission 1).

The “South Beach Project”

However, the RTP Transformation System is just one component of a larger “real-time” project code-named, Mission 5: South Beach (very stealth!) that I am currently working on.

This project has totally consumed my life. I quite literally spend every waking hour working on it (minus gym time) and many hours a night thinking about it! In fact, I’m lucky if I can get more than a few hours of quality sleep a night these days (you may have noticed from my recent pics!)

I’d Love To Tell You All About It…

The reason I’m saying this is because it is not my intention to be “cryptic” about the RTP Transformation System or the Mission 5: South Beach Project (by dropping hints without giving too much away). I am deeply passionate about this project and I’d love to reveal the full details to you right now!

However, while this project is now very close to completion I’d rather have all the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle in place first, before I start any promotion. I learned my lesson last year when a “signed, sealed and delivered” TV deal with an American network fell through (the TV show was axed!), after I’d promoted it to my newsletter subscribers!

Rest assured, once this project “goes live” I will reveal the full details in very quick order because there will be a very strict deadline for participation due to the “real time” aspect of the “South Beach Project”.

Stay tuned…

Cheers,

AJ

G’day Shredders,

Thank you for your awesome comments on yesterday’s Day 624: Juli Runs Wild post.

Juli, you truly are an inspiration as you lead by example in clocking up mega distances on your runs and also from the mega support you give to all Shredders.

YouTube Partner Program

I received some good news yesterday from YouTube! I was officially approved for their Partner Program which essentially means that I can brand my channel with a “Shredder banner” that contains a direct link to RTP Blog (along with a couple of other “perks.”)

RTP Channel Is No.1 In Japan!

As a result of this extra branding my RTP YouTube Channel is now the No.1 Subscribed Channel “This Week” and “This Month” for YouTube Partners in Japan, and also the No.16 Most Subscribed for all YouTube Partners “This Week”!

The major plus with this development is the greater number of subscribers the RTP Channel has, the more “positive pressure” we all receive from Shredder Sunday and ShredderSphere related videos! Much more to come…

You can check out the new look RTP YouTube Channel here.

Catch ya,

AJ

G’day Shredders,

Today I’d like to draw your attention to fellow Shredder and runner extraordinaire, Juli.

Juli has set a challenge to finish the Shredder+ Running Challenge with more than 300 km’s. In order to meet her goal Juli will have to run 100 km’s over the next 7 days!

If you are looking for inspiration to kick-start your own running program be sure to check out Juli’s Run Wild Blog.

Shred on Juli!

Cheers,

AJ

G’day Shredders,

Today I’d like to draw your attention to esteemed Shredder Council member, Mike: Aussie Bodybuilder Blog.

Mike is currently having a vote on his blog regarding whether he should “cover up” for the duration of his contest prep and make a “reveal” at the end of 12 weeks OR reveal his physique on a daily basis.

If you’d like to give your opinion head on over to Mike’s Aussie Bodybuilder Blog and leave a comment. 

Cheers,

AJ

P.S. Either way the vote goes I believe Mike is gonna “rip it up” for his contest!
