Your body just doesn’t want to be as lean as necessary to get on a bodybuilding stage. It will revolt.
But when my progress began to stall, I started adding in some junk in order to keep growing. By the time I began a food journal on October 16, I was up 10 pounds. A month later I had gained another 12 pounds.
I have been performing the bodyline drills in the above video and have been using them with personal training clients for a couple of months now. It is a tremendous way to warm up the body with isometric holds while strengthening connective tissue, improving mobility, and conditioning joints.
