How do I get a body like a male fitness model?

I am 17 years old, 5'11 and weight 175lbs. I have some fat on me. I want to lose the fat I have and gain muscle. I want to have a 6 pack and huge biceps like the guys you see on the cover of 'Men's Health'. Can someone help me and tell me what I need to do to achieve this.How do I get a body like a male fitness model?Yeah, I know exactly where you're at. I took some classes and read a couple books, I have learned a lot and found a way that finally made me lose some weight and tone up!



If you want to lose fat and build a lot of muscle, and maintain that look, there are a few things you have to do. This will include eating a healthy and well balanced diet and making sure to stick to a workout program.



In your first steps, you will need to shed fat by doing cardiovascular exercise, otherwise known as cardio. These exercises include, jogging, running, biking, swimming and more. Most anything that will get your heart rate up for an extended period of time. This will help you lose calories and burn fat. That should be your main focus while trying to get fat off. However, in conjunction, you should be doing a small amount of weight lifting to make sure you are toning your muscles.



Then you should concentrate on weight lifting intensely. There are a lot of different lifting exercises that are good for you and that you will really benefit from. I started doing main muscle groups and the most common exercises for them. But then I got to know more and mix up my workouts. Make sure that you're enjoying what you're doing by changing it up and maybe having another person there with you because that will be motivational and ensure that you're not getting bored.



There's a lot to it but if you take it one step at a time and make sure that you challenge yourself and stick to your plan, then you will definitely see results. There is one book that I used that helped the most and was easiest for me to stick to. I actually got it and both my dad and I used it and it REALLY helped. My mom even did it for a little while but ended up getting more muscular than she wanted so she quit. Here's a link if you're interested.

Just ignore all of the pop ups cause they're not necessary and they're annoying! If you want more pointers or anything like that, let me know. I hope everything works out well for you!!! Stick to it and good luck!



Oh and also, DON'T do diet pills. They're bad for your body and they don't even work! Do it the natural way! :)How do I get a body like a male fitness model?My husband is a former fitness model.



It's not as much about gaining mass but being pleasantly lean. He swears to Tabatas for the time being, but he also does a lot of powerlifting routines, and not so much mass building.



You also have to be very strict with your diet; he's the most anal person I know when it comes to food. But that's the price you pay, I suppose.How do I get a body like a male fitness model?answer above is great.

what you eat matters so much

do a lot of hindu pushups, focus on strengthening your internal organs, tendens, ligaments, etc.



remember size does not equal strength

walk to lose fat

jog for cardio

sprint for muscle



i think sprinting and dead lifting are the 2 best exercises for you

but u'll have to do everythingHow do I get a body like a male fitness model?
I prefer isometric exercises. With isometrics, you can work your whole body, gaining strength and muscle mass, taking only, say, 10-15 minutes a day. The idea behind it is that the key to muscle-building is the INTENSITY more than the duration of the exercises.



The point of maximum results to your workout is when your muscle fibers are stimulated to their maximum. Take the bicep for example: The bicep is relatively weak when the arm is fully extended. It's at its strongest when it gets past the 90-degree angle position. So, a good isometric exercise is to start out at that strongest point (90-degrees), and TIGHTEN that muscle as HARD as possible. HOLD that tension for a count of, say 20-30 (until your muscle is fully exhausted). Then slowly relax the muscle.



Stretch your arm the other direction to fully relax it afterward. This allows your muscle to rest and begins the building-up process.



Now another example: the abs. I've noticed great results on myself in only about three weeks with exercises like these. It doesn't take long at all and is very effective. Take a deep breath and hold it. Tighten up your abs as hard as you can while slowly exhaling. Keep your abs REALLY TIGHT for 30 seconds if you can (being sure to exhale throughout -- and inhaling as needed -- you don't want to pass out by not breathing). Repeat this a few times. Later on in the day, do it again, only this time from a slouching position or lean forward. You can vary this a bit, too, but giving attention to your side (love handle) area. You can even do them again at odd moments of the day if you want.



Do the exercises each day. And I believe you will be amazed at the results. I have found isometrics to give me the gains of weight training and even better. Check out the article below for more info. I can't recommend these exercises more...
