Weight Room Guidance for the Brain Dead – Drop 10 lbs QUICKLY

If you have been reading my articles so far, I would expect that you have digested the importance of getting in the weight room in order to get skinny. Now you are probably wondering, “Once I make my entrance and everyone looks at my fabulous new Lulu Lemon pants, what do I do?”

Good question!

I first started lifting when I was 15, and conveniently enough this training method made me drop 15 lbs rather quickly. (When I say quickly I mean 2 months, not 2 days). We are not doing crack here, ladies!

The bad news about this method is that it is HARD. The good news is that it is efficient, EXTREMELY simple,  and you don’t need to change your diet. Of course, eating better will help. But, if you change nothing and implement this program you will see results.

So, here it is:

Step 1: Learn how to do a proper squat. I can show you a video or write a description but you will probably still do it wrong. Do yourself a favor and recruit a trainer, or anyone who knows what they are doing, to show you how to do it right once and for all.  Start with using dumbbells and once you are ready recruit the same dude to show you how to use the squat rack.

If you are not a beginner with squats and you know how to do them, you are way ahead of the game. Congrats!

Step 2: Determine how much weight you can squat 20 times. This may be no weight at all. It may be 10lb dumbells. Or it may be the 45 lb bar (standard bar). How do you determine this? Trial and error.

Step 3: Perform 5 sets of 20 squats. If you are using no weight, simply do 5 sets with no weight. If you are using weight, decrease by 10 lbs for each set. For example:

Set 1: 20 lbs

Set 2: 10 lbs

Set 3: no weight

Set 4: no weight

Set 5: no weight

Step 4: Perform this routine every other day. The key is (THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART) every other workout you must increase weight by 10lbs. So for instance, the above routine will switch to:

Set 1: 30 lbs

Set 2: 20 lbs

Set 3: 10 lbs

Set 4: no weight

Set 5: no weight

If one day you feel like total crap or you are hung over, don’t do it. It’s better to wait an extra day and perform a hard squat routine.

Step 5: Get skinny and hot. This comes automatically.

I know it’s really, really hard to believe, but I kid you not if you stick to this you will eventually be squatting over 100lbs. AND it will eventually become easy. I swear, you body is amazing. It will adapt to anything.

Again, if you JUST do this you WILL see results. Make sure you warm up first with either 5 mins or cardio or just doing a few quick body weight squats.

If you are barely able to squat 45 lbs now (the bar), and you do not drop AT LEAST 10 lbs by the time you reach 135 lbs x 20 reps (the bar with a 45 on each side), I will shave my head bald and post a pic. Just let me know.
