What if I told you that I just lost another 4 lbs of fat in the past 5 days by changing NOTHING with my diet? What if there was something that could take your rep count from failure to an additional 5+ reps in the gym? And what if I told you that these substances …

Why do we rarely see people walking around below 10% body fat? Well, because it’s extremely difficult to achieve that in the first place, and even more difficult to sustain it for a long period of time! I have heard ridiculous claims of 3-4% body fat this and 5% body fat that over the years …
