Day 844: Dawn Of A New Era…
ByG’day Shredders,
What a great day!
I am back on the Net at top speed! (After plodding along at dialup speed for the last 2 weeks it is great to be back)
I am also pleased to announce that all my recent tech issues (too many to list here!) have now subsided (touch wood!).
The RTP Transformation System Goes Live Very Soon!
Even better, the 8 years in the making, and 8 months in the writing the RTP Transformation System is done, the promo letter is done, the videos are done and the fast action bonus is done! Put simply, the “Go Button” will be hit very, very soon! Stay tuned for details, you won’t wanna miss out on the “Launch Special”!
ShredderSphere Overhaul!
As you can also see from today’s post, Shredder Sunday 2009 (the “public version) is now back! I have re-organized all member blogs to more accurately reflect the current status of ShredderSphere 2.0 (private forum and blog network) and the ShredderSphere 1.0 (Independently hosted blog network).
N.B. For more details on the difference between these two networks please read below.
Shredder Sunday 2009, Episode 1 (Public Version)
Welcome to the “Public” version of Shredder Sunday #1 for 2009!
In today’s edition I have something very special! This video was made by the famous Kali Lilla from www.The Labrawtory.com to celebrate the Shredder Year 2008! Lilla’s video is massive, and it is great celebration of everything that happened in 2008.
It is also very appropriate, because 2009 is going to be even more massive! Just wait til you see the new videos I’ve got in store for you!
This truly is the dawn of a new era…

About ShredderSphere 2.0
What It Is: The ShredderSphere 2.0 is a private online forum and blog network for RTP Transformation System customers. In this secure area, you can effortlessly connect with like-minded people in a protected environment and feel free to broadcast your goals, desires and intentions in a supportive atmosphere.
In short, this private community is the new “Hub” of all online communication between Shredders via Forums, Private Messaging and “Internal Blogs” and includes the following:
- Discussion Forums: The ShredderSphere 2.0 discussion forums are based on the 7-Step RTP Transformation System with each RTP Module being represented by it’s own unique support forum. Here you can get timely answers to your questions regarding each RTP Module.
- Q&A With Experts: This section enables you to get your questions answered directly by physique transformation experts like Adam Waters, Carlos DeJesus (1985 World Champion Natural BodyBuilder) and many other “Senior Shredders” who have already accomplished what you want to do.
- Internal Blogs: The ShredderSphere 2.0 “Plug’n'Play” blogging solution enables you to overcome any technical limitations and avoid the steep learning curve of hosting your own “independent blog.” This fully functional blogging system (including a “real time” commenting feature) enables you to harness the full power of External Accountability and create instant “positive pressure” which will “compel” you to take massive and immediate action on your physique transformation Mission!
- Multimedia “Nerve Centre”: This forum contains exclusive video and audio content from Adam Waters. Step-by-Step tutorial videos, weekly “Shredder Sunday” show, Q&A videos, member videos, exclusive “never before seen” video footage, along with my complete video archive (85 videos in total) from RTP Blog which contain advanced tips on mindset, motivation, nutrition and training.
- Acountability Partners: This is a place where you can increase the accountability factor and keep yourself “on-track” via a dedicated forum and one-to-one private messaging with an “Accountability Partner.”
- Shredder Challenges: You can participate (or host) your very own Push-Up Challenge, Pull-Up Challenge, Abdominal Challenge or any other Challenge you like!
- RSS Technology: A simple, time-efficient way you can stay up-to-date with your favorite Shredder blogs and threads in the discussion forum via built-in RSS technology.
How To Get Access: ShredderSphere 2.0 is currently in “pre-release” mode and currently has 22 members who have contributed more than 800 posts in the discussion forum and 600 entries on their real time “Internal” blogs. “Lifetime” Access to the ShredderSphere 2.0 is included in the RTP Transformation System package (that is coming very soon).
“Independent” Blog Roll: As all current ShredderSphere 2.0 Members started blogging on their “Independent Blogs” before the commencement of ShredderSphere 2.0, many still operate their original blogs. Below is the official list of ShredderSphere 2.0 members who maintain their original blogs.
Important: When the RTP Transformation System goes live, new members will be able to start the own ShredderSphere 2.0 real time accountability blog quickly and easily, and have built in “positive pressure” from their fellow members!

(Very!) Abbreviated History of The ShredderSphere
It All Started On October 21, 2007…
On this day (Day 347 of RTP Blog), I signed off on this day with the following
Let’s Do A “Group Shred”!
Ok, now the “fun stuff” is over I’m gonna knuckle down and shred as hard as I can for the next 18 days so I can cap off this year on a high note. Mission 3 aint over yet!
This will be my primary focus for the next 18 days. Are you gonna join me in “real-time” for the next 18 days? Let’s do a “group shred” and hold each accountable by starting/completing our pre-determined missions!
The response to this post was in the comments section was awesome! So much so, that I decided to take it to the next level and start an “official” 14-Day “RTP Group Shred Group Shred Challenge” whereby I would host daily pictures on my blog and post links to other people’s blogs every day for 14 consecutive days in the lead-up to my “Day 365″ (November 8, 2007).
The objective of this 14-Day RTP Group Shred was simple, invite my visitors to join me in “real time” to harness the power of “positive pressure” via daily accountability and help people kick-start their very own physique transformation.
The First “RTP Group Shred” Goes Live!
Over the next 14 days 16 people (a.k.a Shredders) followed through on the “Shredder Accountability Agreement” of taking pictures every day. However, even more amazing than the high follow through rate was the amazing ‘real time” support community that was created in the process.
Complete strangers from England, Japan, USA, Spain and Australia came together in unison and gave tremendous support to each other for the entire 14 days. In fact, many of the friendships that were forged in those 14 days still exist today, stronger than ever. It really was an amazing experience!

ShredderSphere 1.0 Tips & Requirements
Save Time With An RSS Reader
Use an RSS Reader to stay up to date with all the latest blog posts from your Fellow Shredders. This tip will save you a ton of time because you can read all blog posts and comments (and make comments) from within one stand-alone RSS Reader.
The RSS Reader I use and recommend is a free application called Net News Wire by News Gator. This company has RSS Readers for both Windows and Mac.
Once you have an RSS Reader, then it is a simple matter of subscribing to each individual RSS feed provided by each Shredder. For blogs hosted onBlogger you will find the RSS Feed link at the bottom of each home page by default (called “Posts Atom”).
Example: The RSS Feed for RTP Blog 2.0 is http://rtpblog2.wordpress.com/feed/
*If you have an RSS Reader you’d like to recommend just drop a comment in this post.
ShredderSphere Requirement:
Setting Up Your Own Shredder Blog Roll
One of the core philosophies of the ShredderSphere is to increase “positive pressure” via real time accountability. The “positive pressure” eachShredderfeels (to get the job done) is usually in direct proportion to the amount of visitors they receive to their blogs.
In order to achieve this goal we need a traffic distribution network that gives every Shredder an equal opportunity to receive traffic (and give traffic).
The simplest way to achieve this is for each Shredder to set up their own Blog Roll, exactly the same as what I have in my sidebar, i.e. ShredderSphere Blog Rolls. If you are a new Shredder who has not done this yet I highly recommend you do as you will create a much tighter bond with your Fellow Shredders.
Until tomorrow…
Eat Clean, Shred Hard, Think BIG
Cheers,
Adam Waters, NESTA-CPT

Adam, this is massive and I am so excited about the release of your RTP TS! I am so honored to be among the original shredders and those in the shreddersphere! It has been exciting to watch this whole thing grow from the very beginnings. It truly has taken on a life of it’s own!
Fantastic recap of the last year on the video Lilla put together (Thanks Lilla!).
I too am looking very forward to the release of your new book and am honored to have had a preview of it – and it’s fantastic! I’m already shredding bodyfat and feelinig stronger with every workout.
G’day Suzette, yeah, this really has grown massively since the original group shred! I look forward to this new era very much, thank you for being a part of the ShredderSphere from day 1, it’s been a wild ride!
Hi Debbie, you are right, Lilla put together a massive video for 2008, she has major video skills! I look forward to seeing your final results on RTP TS!
Big update Adam! You have been busy. I am also thankful to be a part of this historic journey. I think the best is yet to come
Yeah mate, it was a biggie! Thank you mate for all your hard work at ShredderSphere 2.0, the best is definitely yet to come!
Fantastic Adam, Echoing thoughts of others, I’m also proud to have been part of this “dream come true” become a relaity for you. Well done mate. I hope you have included an “affiliate” section for us believers to help you market and sell your stunning product.
BTW, well done in taking us apart at “The Bull ring”. Oz 1 – SA zip.
Thanks for putting together an excellent summary of the ShrederSphere 1.0 and 2.0. The pressure is on right now with my name alphabetized into top spot under “ShredderSphere 2.0 Blog Roll: External Blog Network”.
You are “the man” for creating such an excellent environment and system. You and RTP Transformation System make it very possible for normal everyday people like me, an office worker and parent of three with a beautiful wife, to become “The Hardcore Shredder!” Thanks for the nick name!
Let’s not form a line, we are all going massive at one time in ’09!
God bless, BH
G’day Dougal, thank you sir! There’ll definitely be an easy way for my fellow Shredders to use and market this product, no doubt about that!
PS The Aussies are coming back!
My pleasure Brian, the “positive pressure” is real and there is no choice but to shred massive when you are on top the ShredderSphere 2.0 Blog Roll!
Thank you for your very kind words mate, I am very pleased that the RTP System is working for you mate, I look forward to your final results!
I’m smiling as I type this – take a bow my friend you have out done yourself and living your dream, I know the fitness industry will benefit from this program you’re about to launch along with the community of Shredders that will evolve.
Blessings and here’s to continual break throughs.
