G’day Shredders,

Massive breaking news today…being a “Shredder” is officially cool!

That’s right, the Internet’s No.1 fitness author has given his stamp of approval on the “Shredder” terminology that we use to describe ourselves, along with the “hidden” benefits of using this type of positive reinforcement.

Tom Venuto, has just gone live with an epic blog post describing the difference between a “Fat Blogger” and a “Shredder.”

Tom Venuto’s Burn The Fat Blog: Fat Blogger or Shredder?

A Masterclass of Self-Image Analysis

In this post, Tom skillfully breaks down the importance  of self-image, the psychology of self-talk, and how our internal dialogue plays a massive role in how we define ourselves, our goals and ultimately our level of success.

Here’s the kicker, the principles, strategies and techniques that Tom lays out in this article are not only applicable to weight loss, but also virtually every goal you could imagine that relates to self-improvement.

And yes, Tom gives a massive plug for the “Shredder” terminology as opposed to the more commonly used “Fat Blogger” name that many weight loss bloggers have adopted to describe themselves and their journey.

Defining ourself by the goal we’d like to move toward rather than what we are trying leave behind makes perfect sense right?!

As Tom says in his article, “I’d rather be a Shredder than a Fat Blogger”!

G’day Shredders,

What an awesome workout! Today I completed the “alternate” version of the “RTP Muscle” workout program designed by Carlos DeJesus.

When I spoke with Carlos last week he advised me of the specific exercises to “change” up the exercises from workout to the next. And boy, those exercises really hit the spot. In fact, I’m still feeling the effects of the DOMS on Monday’s workout, and after today’s hit-out I know I’ll definitely be feeling this one as well.

Thank you Carlos, I already know this program is working mate! I look forward to sharing a “raw version” of “RTP Muscle” with you guys very soon.

Until tomorrow…

Eat Clean, Shred Hard, Think BIG!

G’day Shredders,

Stealth Mode has been re-activated!

Going Undercover With A “Reveal” In NYC

That’s right, just like I did on my previous “Stealth Mission” in New York I’ll be conducting an undercover operation on RTP-Blog.com for the duration of this Mission with a massive “Reveal” on “Judgement Day”, August 8, 2009.

Of course, August 8, 2009 is also “Event Day” for the RTP Transformation Contest Winners when Tom Venuto and I will privately escort the male and female winner on a road trip they’ll never forget!

This prize package includes a training session in New Jersey, pro pics in NYC overlooking the Empire State Building (the “Big Reveal”), and a private dinner  and “Broadway Show” with Tom and myself!

Go to http://www.RTP-book.com to learn more about the 10-Part Mega Prize Package for the RTP Transformation Contest Winners.

But “Topless” Inside The Sphere!

However, this Mission will be conducted “Topless” inside ShredderSphere 2.0 where I will keep my shirt and reveal my exact training, nutrition and mental training plan for the entirity of this 110-day Mission. As I discussed yesterday, I am currently undertaking an 8-week muscle-building program designed by World Champion Natural BodyBuilder, Carlos DeJesus, called “RTP Muscle.”

Once this 8-week phase of training is complete I’ll then start an new fat loss training workout program called “RTP Turbo”, which is designed to get me (and any Shredder who uses it in the future!) totall shredded for NYC Pro Pics with Tom and the Contest Winenrs.

As a special perk for ShredderSphere 2.0 Members (i.e. RTP Transformation System customers) they will be getting my detailed training and nutrition records inside the Sphere, along with access to both “RTP Muscle” and “RTP Turbo” workout programs that they can deploy for their future Shred Missions!

Today’s Shred Report

Onto other news…I gotta say, there is nothing like being on a full-blown Shred Mission to ratchet up your intensity levels in your training!

Even though I continued to train with weights a minimum of 3 times per week since I finished Mission 5, I did ease back on the cardio as I my objective was building a solid base of muscle/strength.

But, that all changed today, and don’t I feel it! I did my first 40 minute cardio session in donkeys (a 30 min run and 10 minute row) and by the end of it I was dripping in sweat. The thing I was focused on was keeping my intensity level at the max (My PRW’s for this Mission make that kinda easy!) and I succeeded!

I have been living for this moment for a long time, and I can finally say I’m back into fair dinkum shred mode! Bring on the next 108 days, I’m ready to take this game (and my bod) to a whole new level!

Until tomorrow…

Eat Clean, Shred Hard, Think BIG!

G’day Shredders,

Yesterday the hammer dropped on the RTP Transformation Contest in a massive way! The ShredderSphere has exploded with more than 260 members now!

I’ll be discussing this Contest in more depth over the coming days (including a comprehensive FAQ from the tons of emails I have received!) but for now it is time for me to drop the hammer on my personal Shred Mission for the next 110 days!

Getting Fair Dinkum…Again!

Yes, that’s right, the time has come for me to get fair dinkum and practice what I preach by ripping off my shirt and documenting my journey to the best shape of my life over the next 110 days!

Since I finished Mission 5 I have focused on building muscle and gaining strength in my “off season” and have been happy with my training and my results thus far. However, there is nothing quite like a public Shred Mission to get you laser focused on burning fat and shredding massive!

Mission 6 Goals

My goals for Mission 6 are simple. Hit the best shape of my life and surpass the shape I achieved on my previous visit to NYC back on Day 500. Specifically, my goal is to have greater muscle mass (over the 8-week Phase 1 of my training) and be more shredded than my previous pro pics (which will occur over the 8-week Phase 2 of my training).

In fact, I was joking with Tom that I would call this Mission “Rooftop Redemption”! (You can see the pic I’m referring to in the bottom left corner of the Contest Promo Graphic below).

In regards to the workout program I will follow over the next 16 weeks I will deploy two distinct programs in the same manner I did when I conducted Mission 5: South Beach to Surfers.

That is, I will be “road testing” both programs in “broad daylight” and proving their effectiveness first before I endorse them, and make them available as part of the RTP Transformation System.

Mission 6: Phase 1 – Muscle Building on “RTP Muscle”

Throughout the first 56 days of Mission 6 I will be “road testing” a new workout program that 1985 World Champion Natural Bodybuilder Carlos DeJesus originally designed back in the early 1990′s.

Carlos’s clients which include Natural Bodybuilding Champions like John Vendetti and Kathy Brady achieved amazing results on this program back in the day by increasing their lean body mass up by 20 lbs. over a 10-week period.

Furthermore Carlos’ “Muscle Building” workout program has stood the test of time as one of his recent clients has also achieved great results too, not to mention Carlos himself when he won the World Crown back in ’85! A massive part of following any program is a strong belief that it actually works, and needless to say my belief in this workout program is massive!

In fact, I did a session tonight on “RTP Muscle” and I gotta say that I am still feeling the “pump” right now! I know I’ll sleep like a baby tonight!

And also, for the ladies who’d like to gain strength and muscle tone Carlos and I are developing a program for you too! It’s called RTP Figure, and you are gonna love it!

Mission 6: Phase 2 – Advanced Fat Loss on “RTP Turbo”

Throughout the final 56 days on this Shred Mission in the lead-up to “Judgment Day” in New York City with Tom Venuto and the RTP Transformation Contest Winners I will be following a “hybrid” fat loss training program that Carlos and I will also be collaborating on.

This advanced fat loss program will integrate the training methods I have personally used to shred on previous Missions along with techniques that Carlos has also implemented to be undefated in natural drug-free bodybuilding Contests.

Carlos and I have termed this program “RTP Turbo” as it’s primary goal is to burn the maximum amount of bodyfat in the shortest time possible while retaining the lean body mass built on “RTP Muscle” over the preceding 8 weeks (extremely important!). I am looking forward to shredding massive on this program as well, and proving it’s effectiveness publicly!

Here’s The Cool Part!

Once  I have fully tested and verified the effectiveness of these workout programs Carlos and I will make these available as part of the overall RTP Transformation System package.

That’s right, in addition to the “official” 84-day RTP Traning Program that has already gotten great results for every single person who has finished (see the Shredder Hall of Fame on the right hand side bar), there will be two additional workout programs that Shredders can deploy once they finish their first Shred Mission. Exciting times indeed!

Mission 6: Visualization/Goal

My Mission 6 Visualization Image will not come as a surprise! It is the one right below that I have used to promote this Mission/Contest!

RTP Contest Promotion: www.RTP-Book.com

(Deadline To Enter: April 30, 2009)

Mission 6: Pleasure PRW’s

This image encapsulates a whole lot of “Pleasure PRW’s” (Powerful Reason Why) like pride and accomplishment if I follow through with near perfect precision and execution over the term of this Mission. The feeling and the experience of going back to NYC to meet Tom and my two fellow Contest Winners will be the highlight of my life. I know we will have an awesome day together and have memories that we’ll preserve for a lifetime.

Mission 6: Pain PRW’s

On the hand, there are quite a few “Pain PRW’s” to be had if I fall short of hitting my goal of getting well under 5% bodyfat (pain, regret and embarrassment as the Day 1000 pro pics will be seen for a long time to come!). This is the level of bodyfat I require to get my lower two abs to show. During Mission 5, I hit that level of leanness required for the last two pop out, my goal this time is to carve them even deeper!

ShredderSphere 2.0 Exclusive: “Muscle” and “Turbo”

Over the course of this Mission I will be documenting my experience on these two new RTP Workout Programs Carlos and I have developed: RTP Muscle (muscle building) and RTP Turbo (advanced fat loss) exclusively inside ShredderSphere 2.0.

Shredders inside the Sphere will get a real time look at this new “experiment”, along with all my Log Sheets and Workout Program/s once each Program is complete. 8 weeks on RTP Muscle and 8 weeks on RTP Turbo.

NB For Shredders who have already completed their first Mission you’ll get access to these Workout Programs very soon.

Ok, Shredders, time for me to call it a night and get some sleep. For the next 110 days absolutely nothing will be left on the table!

I will shred to my absolute maximum and do my utmost to help you on your way to your goals (and maybe I’ll be seeing you in New York City!)

So without further adieu…let the Shredding Begin!

Until tomorrow…

Eat Clean, Shred Hard, Think BIG!

Catch ya,
