My name is Adam. i will be appearing in the Sept. issue of Exercise for Men. ( comes out in July) I use a 4 day split consisting of chest & shoulders- back & abs- bi's & tri's- legs. I do cardio for 40 min 5 times a week. My nutritionist Shawn Bean really brought my game up another level by planning my supplement and diet strategy. He suggested I use bcaa's , glutamine, CLA, ALA. What really helped me the most is the way he integrated a high protein, lower carb, moderate fat diet into my arsenal.I began seeing results right away. I am looking foward to doing more fitness shoots with many mainstream magazines and doing more in the fitness/ modeling business.

hahah I dont wanna give away all my secrets ( I have enough competition as it is but what helped me the most as far as refining my body was limiting carbs to just breakfast and post workout at night. protein and fats during the day. Keep in mind I believe i have more of an athletic fitness look rather than a bodybuilder look.

Adam go ahead and post because I need to keep track of things as well. Don't need to worry there no one here is ever going to be up against you. It wil be much easier for me to make tweaks accordingly and refine things at quick notice. Workouts are pretty much only 30 % of the equation and nutrition is 50-60%. One thing I want to experiment is with you is cardio manipualtion. It worked great for Dave P who put on close to 35 lbs of lean muscle mass in little under 7 months on a 5'7 frame and he is stilll gaining going into contest time at 5'7 235 @ 5.5 % with 10 weeks to go.
