Orange Juice? Orange Fat!

    I'm sitting on a sofa with my best friend in an awesome chalet, with around 30 people just having a blast and I'm writing this while he's playing on Call of Duty 2. Does it say anything about my social life? Not at all, just explains what I do on hangover days, you pre-judging bastard! 

Even though we're having a blast and I did get drunk, I managed to keep it on a low caloric level and actually lost weight instead of gaining (check out the article on how to drink and loose weight for more info). All this was thanks to planning my meals and bringing a bit of material to workout when we're not partying. Jogging in the mountain was also a bonus, since I noticed a more burn in my legs from all the inclines.

Anyways, enough of bragging about my dedication to working during fun-time, today I want to cover a HUGE commercial lie: Healthy fruit juice. 

IT PISSES ME OFF HOW PEOPLE THINK IT'S A MUST HAVE IN A BREAKFAST !

(almost in all my articles something pisses me off, but that does not mean i'm an angry person (smiley face))

To start off with, the bloody thing never actually satisfies your thirst. 

I remember as a kid I could drink 3-4 litters of that juice in a time space of an hour and with that much sugar in my system I felt like I could go steal a truck of oranges and make some more. Seriously ask yourself the question if it satisfied your thirst. Probably not.

                                                             (this actually does.)

Second, it furthers you away from your fat loss and health goals.

Sure you get your dose of vitamin C, but the juice is missing a lot of enzymes and just accelerates insulin production. 

Think about it, with 1 orange you make around half a glass of an orange juice. So basically in a glass you have 2-3 oranges and we all know you won't drink only a glass. An average person (based on a small survey I did with the people in the chalet and Facebook questioning) drinks around 2.5 glasses of juice when they actually buy a carton and drink in the morning. Thats around a GOOD 6-7.5 oranges… in one meal. 

IT'S PURE SUGAR OVERDOSE

When we try to loose fat, we want to cut down on the carbs. Keep it simple and just have a glass of water with an orange instead. Not only are you cutting HEAVILY on your calories, but at the same time you're getting more vitamins and essential enzymes that you don't get in a juice instead.

Now I know what most people think: Well I don't give a crap about sugar, I'll drink my juice anyways. Well think about it this way: 2 seconds of pleasure or a sexy-healthy body that will last for years? 

The choice you take will determine how smart you really are. 

Let's not forget that much sugar will get you a sugar crash.

You really want to walk zombie mode and be irritable for a good 1-2 hours for the seconds of pleasure? Everybody will hate you for being a piss-off, your girlfriend/boyfriend will dump you, your whole family will throw you on the street and you'll end up that homeless person begging money for crack in order to forget how miserable you really are… ALL BECAUSE OF A GLASS OF ORANGE JUICE. 

Ok I'm definitely exaggerating, but you get the point here.

Now remember, switch with a bottle of water and an orange instead and you'll see an improvement in your results and just keep that glass of juice for your cheat days, it will be more beneficial for your long-term struggle with keeping a lean life.

She's a Slut?! BIGGEST Dating Mistakes Guys Make

Let's face it,
at the end of the day we dress better, we take care of ourselves and stay fit, not only to compliment ourselves in front of the mirror for hours, but also to attract the opposite sex.

We are SOCIAL animals, which means that our sexual needs and intimacy are completely natural. Being desired is just another need that makes us human. There should be no shame into being horny and seeking some form of casual sex or having a desire of having a long-term relationship over casual sex. We are just programmed that way.

Today's society is EXTREMELY confused about what is a slut and to make things worse it's giving false information to guys about attracting chicks. It makes it harder than it should actually be for both genders to have a peaceful sexual life or one at all.

I strongly believe that getting your dating life in check is one of the main keys to living a fulfilling life. It allows you to eliminate a big need in order to start investing your mental energy into a higher purpose and just progress in your life. Plus what's a better stress reliever than some kinky, toe-curling sex?... Exactly.


Don't get me wrong, I respect you ladies, but you got some bullshit mentalities circulating that's making you miss a lot of amazing opportunities. Guys you can be even worst, acting on some weird behaviours that for sure will chase the girls of your dreams away.

Today I'm going to clear a bit for you guys. Now, first things first:

The whole SLUT-bashing scene pisses me off.

Religion prohibits sex before marriage, mass media looks down upon the girls that cheated in their unhappy marriages, etc... With all due respect to religious people, society imposed this negative image concerning a girl's sexual life that makes no sense for anybody not bound by spiritual obligations. It just confuses things.

Think about your entourage a bit and you'll see guys are getting more immature and tend to hate on the chicks that turned them down but slept with other people. Girls are even worse, because they can literally ruin another girls social life just for sleeping with the wrong guy.

That's complete BULLSHIT.

If two people are attracted to each-other and they consent to a night of dripping-ecstacy and orgasms, why should anybody hate on that? . Like hell, it's a lot better than jacking-off and the benefits of sex are off the charts. I'd honestly recommend anybody to have it as often as possible.

There's two problems with this mentality:
( Excluding all the girls that know what they want. This is targeted to a general population)

1- First girls will start to refuse their own desires for the sake of their image. 

That not only makes it harder for guys also to finally break that sexual barrier, but it creates problems for the girl that never actually exist a.k.a mental confusion.

2- Second, it creates a dishonest living a.k.a "Liars"

Guys are afraid they won't get to bust a nut and girls are afraid they will look like a slut if they both admit: they just wanna fuck. In consequence, some lie about wanting a relationship in order to get some action. Again, BULLSHIT.

We're supposed to be a society that helps each-other, not push each-other towards self-destruction.


I hate it when people lie about wanting a relationship when all they want is some casual sex. Not only will they jump in an unwanted commitment(that's if they actually do), but they will damage the other person's trust which will be making things harder for someone else coming along who might be a perfect match for them.

Once you're attracted physically and spent a good night together, you should already have an idea if the person's a candidate for building a relationship, just casual sex or nothing at all. What's so hard about stating your real intentions? Guys, as being the leaders of the relationship grow some balls and state them. Girls it's your duty after to be honest with what you really think

If you think the person is good potential for a relationship, start taking them on dates to get to know them. If you just want some casual sex, set some rules and get that going. Even if you want nothing, make that crystal clear, because if you're really comfortable in your own skin, you shouldn't need the feeling of them constantly chasing you.

If the partner does not feel the same, move on. Better than to walk out then damaged out of the experience.

Some think its scary, because society never really endorsed it, but casual sex happens ALL THE TIME. It's okay to verbalize it and set some ground rules for that kind of relationship.

So take a word of advice: Nobody knows whats better for YOU than YOURSELF. As long as you practice safe-sex, go ahead and do whatever you like with whoever you like. 


Now guys:

Man-up, know what you want and take the lead!


While a lot of guys are struggling to understand why they don't have the results they want with women, I completely understand that situation.

I grew up in a household that was filled with lack of communication, which made talking about sex, dating and normal things of a sexual life pretty much taboo. Since my dad never bothered to give me the whole talk about what's the blueprint on getting a girlfriend, the only talk I got was some bullshit nonsense of being a nice guy and treating girls like princesses from my mom. (It's okay Mom , I forgive ya!)

Anyways, a lot of years, a lot of mistakes and important details later ...I finally got to a point in my relationships that I can pretty much say : I'm amazingly happy.

My results have to do with pretty much what a lot of guys seem to be missing: Maning-up, knowing what they want and taking the lead. Want it or not guys, women are not attracted to men that try to please them constantly:
Women are attracted to men. Period.


I could write a book on what it is to be a man, but in order to keep this article as short as possible I'm going to write the top mistakes that instantly cut-off attraction with the girls and give the solutions to becoming an attractive man.

1- Being needy and chasing one girl at a time.

Unless you're in a monogamous relationship, there should be no reason that you're only flirting with one girl. The main reason a lot of guys fail is mostly because they invest all their energy in one option. Usually what happens when you have only one option, you give off so much energy in the beginning that the girl usually gets scared away. The only time that works is when you struck the lightning of luck and the girl happens to also place you as her top priority in the beginning... those kind of relationships usually lead to nowhere good.

Guys need to be realize, a beautiful women has on average of 10 guys chasing her. That means you really have to be the top-pick. Non-neediness is one of the most important attributes to cultivate. You must show you have standards and be willing to walk away if she does not live up to your standards and expectations. Think about it: if you already had a life full of amazingly beautiful women would you really care if an interaction with a new one failed? Hell nahhh. You have enough going on in your life that it is ok if one interaction doesn't work out! This is the type of attitude that drives women wild and is one of the major reasons that 10% of guys are able to get 90% of the women out there.  


I cannot emphasize this enough: you must release your attachment to the outcome. Every day, you run across hundreds of women, many of whom are attracted to you, so you can afford to fuck up and release the ones not meant for you.


2- Giving her the lead


The process of building and sustaining attraction is like a dance and as a man, you are expected to be the leader. It is actually sad that most women are tired of waiting for men to step up and lead the interaction. This isn't to say that she cannot make any sort of decision in the relationship, far from it. Relationships are about compromise and mutual respect. This just means that it is up to YOU to guide it where you both want it to go. Don't wait for her to take the reigns and make things happen. This is a fundamental component to being a leader in other areas of your life as well.


3- Lying and not being yourself.


One of the most attractive qualities a person can have is knowing who they are as a person, what they are all about, and what they are or aren't willing to agree with and accept.  A lot of guys loose a big core of their attraction because they step out of their persona in order to create fake commonalities or just impress her. 


Do not agree with everything she says just because you like her, she can tell when you are just agreeing with her so she'll like you, or agreeing because you actually agree. Girls are basically human-lie-detectors.
If you do that, she will find you weak and assume she can walk all over you. It is better to voice your opinion when you disagree. There is no need to apologize for it, cause it's not a big deal.  However, do not disagree with her just for the sake of arguing, because then you become annoying. Create a compromise in order to make both parties happy. Just know what you want, need and desire and stand by them until death. 


4- Being available all the time


Being available all the time is another of the huge mistakes guys make.


First, it comes down to basic lying because you are putting her over your other priorities. In the beginning, there should be no reason that a girl should be your priority. Your life should be filled with interesting hobbies, friends, events , etc... You shouldn't pause your life to get back to her text or call right away or even worst by tossing aside an important event for a date with her. Make her wait, but don't exaggerate and make her wait centuries all the time. Mix it up and be natural to it. Finish your stuff first, get back to her later. IMPORTANT: if you are in the middle of a conversation, wait to finish it up or indicate that you have to go. We are men, not boys.


Second, girls WANT to EARN their importance in your life. If you give it from the start, they feel like they haven't earned anything at all. Be like the prize she has to earn and the relationship will be more fruitful.








That's all for now guys.


Take these tips and start incorporating them into your persona. They are essential to your evolution as a man and will allow you to live a more honest life.

Jogging & Sprinting: The DEADLY combo.

Second day from the release of Wolf-Pack Fitness Systems and everything is going just AMAZING.

I'm discovering a lot of new things, getting lots of support from lovely people like YOU and most importantly I'm getting e-mails from people that are telling us how much they loved the killing feeling of the first work-outs .

 You have no idea how much that motivates me and pushes me to delivering awesome content. So I'd like to take this moment and say:

THANK YOU! 

I'm just feeling overwhelmed . Your support REALLY means a lot.

Anyways, today I'm releasing Shredding the Pack 1st week's workout, both the gym and home edition on writing, while the videos will be up by Friday.

Now like anybody would guess, there's no complete Fat Loss program without cardio.

I know what you're thinking: "Paul... cardio is boring and its winter, I'll just freeze my ass in boredom."

WELL...

I'm telling you to suck it up and stop going for a jog naked. Just put some clothes on and you'll be fine. Once you get that first mile in, you'll actually be sweating icicles, which is pretty cool considering it makes you look like you got superpowers.

But I'm here to break a big myth which is: THE MORE YOU JOG THE MORE FAT YOU'LL BURN!

Man I just want to find the person who said that and smack him in the face. I wasted so much of my earlier time jogging then actually getting results done back when I started hitting the gym some years ago. I could have achieved my goals a lot easier, so that's what I'm gonna do today.

First things first: I love jogs. They are essential to being a COMPLETE fit person.

Not only that, but they offer an amazing time to just clear your mind and connect with nature. I believe we're living in a generation that we're just too connected to technology. Going out in a park to jog, not only is good on your body, but your mind will feel refreshed and will get yourself going and motivated.

A lot of you guys probably heard me before discouraging long jogs, which I still do. Anything over 40-45minutes is bullshit in my opinion. It's no good on your lean body mass and let's face it... it gets BORING.

I like to hit an hour jog from time to time, but thats just for the sake of beating my previous distances. I got to a 10k in the freezing cold recently, feels good bro.

Jogging by itself is starting to be disused in the fitness industry. The problem with it, I'm gonna try to keep it real simple, it's the fact that it's TOO rhythmic. Your body gets used to the constant pace and therefore need less and less calories to spend to perform the same work. 

For example let's say you START to jog every day for 30 minutes. The first day you'll be sweating and burning calories like Peter Griffin chasing a Twinkie. The sad part is, by next month, your body gets used to the pattern and uses nearly nothing as energy in order to perform the same jog, thus leaving you in a fat burning plateau. 

If theres any Jog lovers like me out there, it makes it a sad fact, but theres a whole bunch of other benefits to jogging that just makes it damn worth to be addicted to.

Since I'm going to be with you guys for 8weeks(16 for some), I had to think of how I could keep the constant fat-loss without hitting that plateau, just pure fat shredding the whole WAY.

So I came up while experimenting this summer with a 2-way system. Basically we have a building in phase of 8 weeks, and a shredding mayhem for elite CUTTING performance in the last 8 weeks.

(Yes it doesn't only sound like hard-work, it actually is and works wonders)

Lucky for you readers, I'm giving the first 8 weeks to everyone for free.

First thing first: LONG JOGS STAY... once a week at the end of your last workout (its usually after a strength training or density if you're following the home edition, so it should only feel good).

These long jogs are actually beneficial since they are exactly after we used up all the sugar in our muscles to lift heavy. We will be keeping them under 6km and between 20-25mins. So if you can get to 1k per 5minutes , that's awesome. 

We want these jogs to be fast paced, and diverse inclinations to not allow the body to adjust. You can either get your ass on a treadmill and hit it at around 7-8mph, while remembering to change your inclination every 2 minutes or you can actually get to a park and have a jogging adventure and not have to worry about a thing. 

Either way, you gonna sweat.

Second: High Intensity Interval Training - The father of all pukes.

I could get into a long lecture, but too many people talked about HIIT cardio for me to re-consider making this post longer than it already is. So to make it simple and short, in order to confuse our body and burn more calories than needed, we're going to SPRINT. 

For gym version: Go on a treadmill and warm-up for 3 minutes with a slow walk (i like it at 4mph)

Right after your 3 minutes, set it to a sprint/run setting (I like 12mph) and continue there for a minute, once thats done and your heart feeling like its about to explode, set it to a slow jog speed (i like 6mph) and let your body cool down for 2 minutes. Then REPEAT another 2 times (without the warm-up). End it all with a 3 minute cool down (1min 4mph and 2 mins 3mph). Puke out of your nose on that hot chick's shirt next to you. Done.

For home version: Grab a jump rope and do exactly the same. Just instead of slow jogs, its slow jumps. When it comes to the minute running, do a minute of FAST jumprope. You can keep it to 2 sets, jump rope is a bit more of a fat loss killer than running. 

But if you don't actually want jumprope (WHY?! IT'S THE ULTIMATE FAT BURNING TOOL!), go outside and perform in the same fashion.

So re-cap:    Time:         Gym Version            Home Version

                 0-3min           3-4mph                     slow jumps

                  3-4min           10-12mph                 fast jumps

                  4-6mins          4-6mph                     normal paced jumps

                 6-7mins           10-12mph                FAST JUMPS

                 7-9mins           4-6mph                     normal paced jumps

                 9-10mins         10-12mph                FAST JUMPS (you're about to puke here)

                 10-12mins        4-6mph                    normal paced jumps

                  12-15mins       3-4mph                   slow like you're about to collapse

Now we'll be doing that for the first 2weeks, on week 3 well add an extra set.

Same for week 5 and same for week 7. 

On week 5 we'll add an extra HIIT day.

It sounds scary now, but you'll see by the end of week 8, you'll be running those 6 sets like NOTHING.

Now to the last: Jump rope!

At first I thought of just giving you 25 minutes of jump rope, but then I started experimenting them at the end of workouts, and they turned out to be WAY more effective. Ladies, you will love this, it tones the legs and hips very nicely. For us guys, the definition on our 6pack will come in nicely and it also builds the calves. Yes calves are seen as an primitive attractive factor. You got nice calves, people tend to see you as stronger unconsciously, so work on those chicken legs!

That's all you need to know. Tonight I'll post the how to build your own gym and I'll be posting the workout schedule and videos tomorrow. Make sure you get everything before you get started and like our Facebook page.

Get strong, shred fat : Join the pack!
