5 Steps To
Looking 10 Years Younger
By Steve & Becky Holman
Did you
know that once you hit 40 years of age, whether you're a man or a women, your
body starts aging FASTER than normal? Studies have shown that without the
proper nutrients and exercise, your body will age about 6 months EXTRA for
every year that passes. Think about that! If you are 40, that means by the time
you hit 44 you will LOOK and FEEL 48. And by the time you reach 60, you will
LOOK and FEEL 70 YEARS OLD! We see this every day... just look around you.
Did you
know that 90% of people over the age of 35 lose enough muscle every year to
burn off an additional 4 pounds of body fat? That means you not only lose the
only thing on your body that creates shape, tone, and strength—you also gain
more fat every year, even if your calories stay the same.
Did you
know that all of this is reversible at any age? That there are specific ways to
move, eat, and think that tell your brain to STOP this rapid aging process...
and even SLOW IT DOWN to the point where you're aging less than a year for
every year? That means you can look younger at 40 than you do at 35... or if
you're like Becky and I, younger at 50+ than we did at 40!
This is
not fantasy talk. This does not require a boatload of anti-aging drugs,
supplements, or gimmicks. And, this works for anyone, male or female, and works
at any age. 35, 45, 55, 65, 75... you name it. The biology is exactly the same.
My years
as editor-in-chief at Iron Man Magazine have allowed me to peer into the secret
routines of the anti-aging experts. Over the years, both Becky and I have
picked up SO many tips, tricks, and strategies that have allowed us to
literally reverse the aging process, at least from a cellular level. That means
our body's look, feel, and MOVE younger than our chronological age.
We've
taught this System to countless men and women over the years, and it always
begins with these 5 key principles you must apply in order to STOP the rapid
onset of aging that's going on right now, reverse it, and begin "aging
backwards" by restoring your body's natural youth hormones.
That said,
we have to warn you: What you are about to hear may go against all the
conventional diet and exercise advice you've been hearing. That's because the
world has, to be utterly frank, gone soft! "Core training", hot yoga,
spin classes, tai chà all of these are just fine, but they won't slow your
aging, and they certainly will never shape your muscles or burn off stubborn
body fat. No way!
These 5
steps reveal the things you absolutey MUST AVOID if you want to slow the aging
process, reclaim your health, and achieve your ideal body.
What you
need is a splash of cold water, a touch of Old School, and the honest truth.
Sound good? Let's dive in!
Low fat
everything has been the craze now for decades and look around. What has that
wonderful bit of advice done for the bodies you see? We're fatter, sicker, and
more addicted to sugar and carbs than any other time in history. And, we're
passing these habits to our kids.
Fats are
not to be feared – they're to be embraced. They do not make you fat; rather,
they help your body regenerate your power hormones. Testosterone, the
'strength' hormone, for example, is the direct result of cholesterol and
dietary fat intake. That's right: "Cholesterol" isn't a dirty word!
Your body needs dietary fat and cholesterol in order to produce ANY AND ALL
vital hormones.
People on
low fat diets look drawn, gaunt, and weak. They are often sick, sometimes to
the point of literally breaking down. And, they can never just enjoy eating
out. Every meal and every gram must be accounted for. Do you really think this
will make you younger? Of course not... it will worry you to death if it
doesn't kill you first!
Spinning
classes can be fun, if you like sitting in one place and torturing yourself.
But have you noticed how little people change their bodies in these classes?
Sure, it's good "cardio", but cardiovascular conditioning can be
gained with far less time and effort.
Spinning,
and any form of endurance training (especially running) does very little to
help the age reversal process. Many times, these long-duration exercise bouts
accelerate the aging process by increasing free radicals. These free radicals
are scavengers that prey on your body's essential nutrients and tissues.
There's a
smart way to exercise... we'll cover that in a minute. And, what's wonderful is
that it takes you about ¼ the time of traditional workouts. We'll cover more
details on the next page.
The guys
to the left are not fat because they are old—they're fat because they eat,
think, and move like a fat, old, dying person! Becky and I are both in our
50s—older than the guys in this photo—and I still sport a nice six-pack, and
Becky transformed her body from the typical "middle age mom" to a
slim, toned, and super-sexy woman who looks 10 years younger. (See the next
page for photos!)
Listen:
Your body doesn't own a clock. Studies have shown that men and women in their
90s were able to gain muscle tone in just a matter of weeks of simple weight
training. I've personally seen men and women transform their physiques at
literally all ages—25 to 95!
If you're
around those naysayers who are constantly talking about growing old, all their
aches and pains, and how life is just down hill after 40—LEAVE! Surround
yourself with positive thinkers who absolutely crave a challenge. A challenge
is what keeps you YOUNG, and the best challenge there is happens to be taking
control of your health and body.
We'll show
you HOW we do that on the next page.
Water
isn't just "good for you" — water burns fat. Water suppresses hunger.
Water renews your skin. Just drinking 12 ounces of pure water every day can
take a few years off your face in a matter of weeks. You'll also drop fat, have
more energy, and save your kidneys and liver from chronic overwork.
When your
kidneys are taxed from too little water, your liver has to take over. Now, get
this: Your liver is your number one fat-burning organ. Do you REALLY want it
processing liquids and toxins rather than BURNING FAT? No way, right? Well,
grab a glass of water, and watch the mirror. Within a few weeks, the change to
your face and body will be noticeable.
If you
don't work out at all, you're going to lose muscle tissue every year. That
means you'll get fatter and flabbier each and every year with less shape and
more sag. Is this what you desire? No way, right?
Well, the
answer is old school resistance training. Here's the secret: hardly anyone is
doing it right!
Becky and
I have seen literally thousand of pro fitness athletes train over the years.
The ones who looked the best — and that means looked the youngest, most toned,
and had the least amount of unwanted fat — were the ones who left the gym while
others were still warming up!
Over the
past decade, Becky and I have developed a men and women's workout system that
we call F4X Training System. This is a revolutionary way of combining four
specific exercises done in literally a matter of minutes. That's ALL YOUNEED... And don't let anyone tell you otherwise!
That's
right: We do not do endless cardio sessions (the F4X Training System is a great
cardiovascular workout) and we do not spend an hour a day in the gym. We have a
life, thank you. We have kids, and we value being both fit and real people at
the same time. The F4X Training System was our personal breakthrough to
achieving our ideal bodies, staying in tip-top shape with minimal time, and
having a life outside a gym. More information.......
