Once A Twig, Now A Fat-Magnet!
A year ago I would train hard, eat right, seek professional help and down the supplements, but each day in time, no mass came, nothing. I would go see a doctor and hear "eat 3 cans of baked beans a day!". So I did, nothing. Another doctor said "drink lots of milk and eat a loaf of wholemeal bread each day. I did and nothing. This went on for some time. I eventually became stuck at 65 kilograms.
One day I strolled past a store and a man, built like rock, stood outside a supplements store. He was short but had such a great physique. I got up the courage to approach him and ask for help relating to my craving to gain weight. The man asked me a bunch of health-related questions and showed me what product to use. It was Universal Real Gains.
After two months of using real gains and training hard, I had increased my body weight to 75 kilograms. Then something went wrong. The product was great, it worked wonders but now I had a new enemy, fat!
Before, fat would strip off me as fast as a cat getting chased by a pack of wild dogs, but within the next few months I noticed that fat was hanging around longer then usual. The definition that I had in my Abdominal area soon disappeared behind a wall of fat. The cure had become the problem.
Now, I have to try and avoid all foods that are no longer beneficial to me. No KFC! No Pizza! No McDonalds! Well McDonalds sell subs that are only 8 grams in fat, so if I decide to eat out, this is one of the better options. Am I sick? Not that I know of, but tests are clear. I’m just getting fat.
No blame is put on Universal Real Gains. I still use it. The blame rests on my eating habits, my lack of Cardio work and my lack of discipline and dedication. In the coming week I am changing my daily workout and adding 15 minutes of HIIT per day. I have heard this is the best way to improve cardio levels and lose fat. I am 82 kilos now, with a good 2-3 kilos being fat around the midsection. I once had a flat-6-pack, but now I’ve got fat-1-pack. It’s time to get focused and use this to my benefit.

Ya know, at the end-o-the day, it really is all about the diet…Personally, I could HIIT all day and still have that one-pack you referred to, if my diet is not tight. Amazingly, with a tight diet, I never even do cardio….and can maintain at 10% BF.

I enjoyed HIIT and it helped me lose a bunch of fat last spring. I tended to stay around 30 - 40 minutes but your results may vary.
Good luck on your goals. The battle for the flat midsection is one that we’re all working on.
