2 Ancient Exercises For A Sweeping V-Taper

First: What’s a V-taper? Take a look at the picture of Steve Reeves.

I’ve added some lines to help demonstrate. The V-taper is the visual effect created by having broad shoulders tapering down to a tiny waist.

Everybody wants a more pronounced V-taper. But there are two old school exercises — that almost nobody does anymore — which can help you attain the look.

To get a dramatic V-taper, you need to enlarge your upper body (namely, shoulders, chest and rib-cage) and shrink your waist.

I’m going to show you two exercises. The first can be used to enlarge your upper body region. The second can be used to shrink your waist.

Forgotten Exercise #1: The Dumbbell Pullover

The bodybuilders of yesteryear believed this exercise would actually stretch the cartilage in your rib cage giving you a bigger rib cage and a bigger chest and back as a result.

To perform this exercise, grab and dumbbell and lay horizontally across a bench so your upper back is on top of the bench. Drop your hips as low as you can — this will initiate the stretch. Then slowly lower the dumbbell over your head as low as you can to really work the stretch to the max.

The key to this exercise is to remember to keep the reps high and really feel the S-T-R-E-T-C-H. Go for 3 sets of 25. You can do these in between sets of other exercises while you’re catching your breath.

Forgotten Exercise #2: The Vacuum

With the dumbbell pullover working to widen the top of your “v”, we’ll use the vacuum to shrink your waist or the bottom of your “v.”

This exercise is simple and can be done anywhere. Take a deep breath and then exhale completely. Keep exhaling, expelling all the air from your belly. Then suck in your belly as far as you can and hold it for 10 seconds.

Recommendations: Do 10 sets of 10 second holds daily. Then progress to 5 sets of 20 second holds after a few weeks.

Give these two exercises a shot and give yourself a more dramatic V-taper. Want 7 more unconventional tips that can help you add muscle and shed fat? Then download this 17-page free report before it’s gone.

P.S. Almost forgot. The classic bodybuilders (like Reeves) had much better V-tapers than today’s modern bodybuilders. Part of the reason is because modern bodybuilders today use high doses of illegal steroids like HGH and those drugs can cause the tissue in the gut to enlarge, ruining the lines of the V-taper.

That’s why I’m so fired about discovering and sharing the old-school techniques for building muscle and shedding fat. Because these ancient secrets actually work for drug-free, genetically-average guys (and girls.)

What Is The Purpose Of Eating? (Trick Question)

Sounds like a stupid question, right?

But if your goal is to build muscle or burn fat, then you need to look at this question in a very different light.

If your goal is to build muscle, then the “purpose” of eating is to eat protein. Every time you eat, you’ve got an opportunity to eat some protein. If you’re trying to build muscle, every meal should include protein.

If your goal is to burn fat, then your “purpose” of eating is a little different. Your goal is consume the MAXIMUM amount of nutrients with the MINIMUM number of calories. Raw veggies are good because they contains tons of essential nutrients, but very few calories. Protein and fat are good because even though they can be higher in calories, they also provide vital nutrients that you can’t obtain from other sources.

Twinkies are bad because they provide very few nutrients and are high in calories. Got it?

Every time you sit down to eat, you’ve got an opportunity. And opportunity to make yourself a little bigger, a little stronger, a little healthier, a little leaner.

It’s up to you.

Improve Your Health And Your Physique Even If You’re On The Clock

Life is crazy busy right now.

I wake up in the morning. Then I blink. And all of sudden the day is gone and it’s almost midnight. Ever have one of those months?

It’s easy to put your health (and your physique) on the back-burner when life gets nutso. But there’s a solution. Here’s how you can improve your health and your body even if you’ve got just a few minutes per day.

If you’ve got 60 minutes to spare, the best thing you can do is a weight-training or resistance-training workout. This will help optimize your hormones, regulate your appetite and improve your quality of sleep.

If you’ve got just 20 minutes to spare, the best thing you can do is an ultra-short bodyweight exercise workout. In just 20 minutes, you can blast your lungs, heart, and every major muscle group head to toe. Give the deck of card workout a shot for 20 minutes and you’ll be feeling the burn.

If you’ve got just 10 minutes, a brief conditioning workout would be your best move for health and fitness. 10 minutes of sprints or 10 minutes of sandbag carries will get the job done and leave you burning fat for hours afterward.

If you’ve got just 5 minutes? Drink a big glass of water and stretch. Sitting all day slumped over your laptop can cause your leg muscles to tighten and your lower back muscles to weaken.

If you’ve got just 3 measly minutes? Meditate. Sit on the floor and take some deep breaths. In through your nose, out through your mouth. Try to think only of counting your breaths. Yes, even just 3 minutes of meditation can make a big difference.

If you’ve got absolutely ZERO time? Might be a good day to do a partial day fast. Skipping a few meals will give your body a much needed break from the daily onslaught of food. You’ll burn fat, plus you’ll actually save a bit of time since you won’t be cooking, eating, or cleaning up.

Shocking Confession From Mr. Universe

Every time you read an interview with a champion bodybuilder, they always tell you how hard they work. How much they toil and sweat and measure every scrap of food to get this kind of body.

I have no doubt that today’s modern bodybuilders work hard. But it sure would be nice to hear at least ONE modern bodybuilding champion make the confession that Steve Reeves, winner of the 1950 Mr. Universe, did.

Reeves actually admitted… that he was an easy-gainer.

Shocking, right! Reeves had a great foundation, and he admits he had an easier time than most building muscle mass due to his favorable genetics.

What a breath of fresh air. Unlike today’s modern bodybuilders — some of whom have actually admitted to bench pressing 315 pounds the very first time they ever set foot in a gym — Reeves was more than willing to admit he was an easy gainer.

It doesn’t mean he didn’t train hard. It just means he had an easier time gaining muscle mass and AS A RESULT the routines that worked for Reeves probably won’t work for a hard gainer.

The Big Fat Flaw With Having A Classic Body

My wife wants me to get a new suit. Apparently, the one I got 10 years ago for about $100 bucks ain’t holdin’ up so well.

But now I’ve got shell out a bunch of extra cash because I can’t buy a suit off the rack, I have to get something custom-made.

Why? Because of “the drop.”

Turns out there is a standard drop between the size of your chest and the size of your waist when it comes to suits. If you have a 44 inch chest, most pant sizes will be right around 38 inches. That’s a 6 inch “drop” and that’s standard.

If you have MORE than a six inch drop, it means you’ve probably got a bigger than average chest and a smaller than average waist.

That’s pretty much the entire point of building a classic physique — more muscle, less fat. When you get a classic physique you’ll look great on the beach or in a 3-piece suit.

But you will have to shell out a few more bucks for the custom-fitted suit. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

If you’re crazy enough to actually want to set yourself apart from the rest of the “average-sized” suit shoppers… then you and I are on the same page. Grab my free report and let me show you how to get a classic physique.
