What the beta versions have taught me
Big time Wall Street gurus predict stocks worse than average folk. The theory: Wall Street gurus feel like they have to make big, bad, and bold predictions. They outthink themselves. This applies to things beyond the fiscal world. The original version of The Skinny-Fat Solution was sold to two groups of beta testers. But the whole time I couldnt help but think that I had made a stock market mistake. I tried to wow. Tried to give something to catch eyeballs more than hearts. And thats when I realize that a lot of fitness products are shiny pennies. Finding a shiny penny on the sidewalk is exciting. But in the end its just a penny. I knew I had to change The Skinny-Fat Solution. I didnt want it to be another shiny penny. Looking back at my history, it wasnt one program that changed my life. It was personal reconstruction. It was a search into why, what, and how to do what I wanted to do. It was learning a new lifestyle. How should you train? How should you cook? What should you eat? What should you stand for? I can tell you to multiply your bodyweight by twelve and use that as a baseline calorie estimate, but what does that mean? How does that help you if you dont know the things that are even more fundamental? And so recreating this resource just made sense to me. This Solution isnt a magic card. Youve been looking for magic cards. They dont exist. The key isnt one card; the key is arranging the deck in a way that best suits you. I hope you enjoy.

WHy
Asking a critical question
In order to appreciate and understand the direction of this resource, you have to ask yourself, Why? Why is skinny-fat syndrome such a big deal? If you feel the same way I did, skinny-fat is a personal destruction. Its a conglomeration of personal and social awkwardness. Youre held captive by your body. It stops you from being you. I felt out of proportion. Narrow shoulders and a wide waist. Fat feeling, but everyone sees skinny. These problems are deeper than body fat. They encompass all around body image. You dont have a body fat problem, you have a body image and body composition problem. You need to recreate yourself. Most fitness philosophies arent for you. Think of what youre holding in. Think of what eats away at you. You cant just jump on any old program and expect it to fix you. So what do you need? You need two things. Most people neglect the latter, but thats a mistake. You need to: Lose fat Build muscle

These things are mutually exclusive. You shouldnt be in one mode or the other mode you need to be working towards each or else you wont end up in a happy place. I get a lot of emails that say, If I just lose this fat, Id be so happy! And I always question that because the reason skinny-fat syndrome is so mentally draining is because the proportion messes with the mind.

Heres what I mean.

The pictures above are of a fine gentleman from one of the initial Skinny-Fat Solution groups. From the side, hes lean and decently muscled. But from the front, he looks fat, even though his six pack is coming through. Thats not a lot of fat around his waist. Thats just how wide his hips naturally are. And wide hips are a common symptom of skinny-fat syndrome. You cant change hip width. Thats bone. Thats genetics. This fine gentleman cant think about losing his way to salvation. He has to think about building himself into a new body, not losing himself into a new body. You have to do the same. This is a different mindset. One not a lot of skinny-fat sufferers take. Most people cram cardio and fat loss, expecting their body image issues to be solved. They wont be. Your overall shape and look is determined by whats underneath of your body fat. If you have little muscular backbone, you have nothing to reveal underneath of your body fat. So even if you lose all of your body fat, youre only going to reveal a bony structure. And if youre truly skinny-fat, your bony structure sucks. Its back to the wide hips and narrow shoulder gig.

You need to build muscle in the right places. You need to architect something that drastically opposes common skinny-fat traitsbuild a structure thats completely opposite of the one you live with now. When you cram cardio and fat loss (and particularly when you attack it incorrectly), you end up holding on to your fat and losing even more muscle. A lot of people end up lowering their calories ad infinitum until their metabolism and hormone profile is so bunk that theres no hope to lose fat and gaining muscle becomes impossible. (This is a common pitfall when trying to eliminate stubborn body fat.) The solution requires a lot of work. Youre going to adopt a new lifestyle. Youre going to have to lift weights and strength train. Youre going to have to see the world through different eyes. If this is something you cant accept, Im sorry. The Solution to Skinny-Fat Syndrome has two distinct steps: Get to a lean, solid base with little body fat Build yourself into something great

So overall, its more of a muscle building program than anything else. You need to familiarize yourself with basic barbell training and free weight training. Reasons will be explained later. You need to learn how to eat to fuel your training. You need to learn how to cook to not ruin your fat loss. You need to learn how set up a lifestyle friendly nutrition plan. And a better lifestyle, period. You need to learn the basic principles that are going to serve you in the long term. You need to learn the Solution. Ready?

Don t be an idiot
Its a resource, not a product
Unlike most information products on the web, The Skinny-Fat Solution is a resource. One book is one book. But a library of booksnow thats a resource. They serve more than one purpose and hit different domains. This resource is a substitute for personal coaching program. My students pay hundreds of dollars to work with me one on one. Yet youre getting access to the same information for a fraction of the cost. Now, I could have cut some documents. I could have made it even cheaper. I could have done a lot of things. But, really, I couldnt. I couldnt have done this any other way. This is the way I would have wanted it done back when I suffered from skinny-fat syndrome. It just doesnt make sense to cut corners. Its not uncommon to spend hundreds of dollars on miracle supplements in an attempt to cure skinny-fatness. (Trust me, I get the e-mails.) So one moderately priced resource, which essentially doubles as a life manual, is well worth it. Consider yourself awesome for being here.

The files inside the .zip file are numbered. This is the order in which they are to be consumed. Each one builds upon the next.
There are a few different product packs. The first pack is the Standard Pack. Its the perfect entry into the skinny-fat world. The second pack is the Hyper Pack. It has advanced strategiesdefinitely for those with some experience under their wings. Below is a general overview of how to attack the reading.

UNCOVERED BONUSES!
1. Interview with Nate Miyaki
Nate is a fellow skinny-fat sufferer, now nutrition guru. The original version of The Skinny-Fat Solution borrowed heavily from his own nutrition backing. Through revisions, this has since changed, but the interview is valuable enough to watch regardless: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CQW8J0NnS0

2. Interview with Nia Shanks

Since Im a male, I wanted to get a female perspective on things. Nia was kind enough to give me the time: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfOvhtbewck
