    Welcome to Cover Model Secrets

    Did you ever wonder how guys dial it in, in such a short time frame? You see your buddy,

    who looks relatively soft and a week later at the beach hes rock hard! Believe it or not,

    its actually not all that difficult and virtually anyone can follow the protocol over the next

    few pages and make a significant change to their physical appearance in just 7 days.

    So what am I talking about? Well, in the following pages I have outlined my One Week

    Out method for dialing it in. This is what I do leading up to a photo shoot or contest to

    eliminate subcutaneous water, deplete glycogen stores and enhance my overall physicalappearance. In fact, this works so effectively that it can make dramatic changes even if

    youre not exactly shredded on day one.

    I will be honest; staying in great shape year-round isnt easy. There are times of the year

    where I am asked to be ready for a shoot in just a few short days and I might not be

    where I want to be. This method has helped me enhance my look on short notice, so that

    I can appear razor sharp at all times.

    Do you need to be a fitness model to reap the benefits of this methodology? Absolutely

    not! This could help you dial it in for the beach, a wedding, even a summer party where

    you know you will be walking around in just a tank for the day. Regardless of your

    situation, this can help you make significant changes in a week or less so lets get to it!

    Water Consumption

    When attempting to eliminate subcutaneous water, its very important to actually stay

    hydrated. Cellular hydration is important for maintaining that full, round look in your

    muscle bellies. If you cut water too drastically you will actually end up looking flat and

    soft. Follow this protocol to help flush water out while still staying hydrated:

    Day 1-4: 2 Gallons of water per day.

    Day 5:1.5 Gallons of water.

    Day 6:1 Gallon of water. Reduce to sips after 5pm.

    Day 7 (Day of Event): Sips as needed depending on appearance.

    *Its important to never completely cut water out, as water is important for maintaining a

    dry appearance.

    Carbohydrate Depletion Loading

    Next, you will want to manipulate your carbohydrate intake over the course of the next 7days to enhance your look. In the beginning of the week, we will taper carbs and

    increase exercise to deplete glycogen stores. Then, later in the week we will taper back

    on exercise and increase carbohydrate intake to fill out. Follow this protocol for

    carbohydrate consumption:

    Bodyweight > 200lbs or 90kg

    Day 1: 110g Carbs, 220g Protein, 98g Fat

    Day 2-4:55g Carbs, 275g Protein, 98g Fat

    Day 5:275g Carbs, 165g Protein, 49g Fat

    Day 6:220g Carbs, 193g Protein, 61g Fat

    Day 7:220g Carbs, 138g Protein, 86g Fat

    Bodyweight < 200lbs or 90kg

    Day 1: 100g Carbs, 175g Protein, 100g Fat

    Day 2-4:50g Carbs, 225g Protein, 100g Fat

    Day 5:250g Carbs, 150g Protein, 44g Fat

    Day 6:200g Carbs, 150g Protein, 67g Fat

    Day 7:200g Carbs, 125g Protein, 78g Fat

    Glycogen Depletion TrainingNext up, your training for the week. This will not be a normal week with regards to

    training, as your main goal is going to be completely emptying your glycogen stores.

    The strategic carbohydrate loading will then re-fill them, so that you can hit your peak

    condition.

    The workouts themselves will be more of a circuit-based style of training. You will work

    multiple muscle groups per day, using moderate weights and higher rep ranges. You

    want to work hard, but not to the point of complete exhaustion or failure. Think of theseworkouts as more of a quicker, burnout style of training where your trying to maximum

    blood flow to the targeted muscle groups rather than maximum breakdown of the tissue.

    Use the following protocol for the week:

    Day 1: Lower Body Circuit

    Day 2:Biceps, Triceps & Shoulders Circuit

    Day 3:Chest & Back Circuit

    Day 4:Biceps, Triceps & Shoulders Circuit

    Day 5:Chest & Back Circuit

    Day 6:OFF

    Day 7:Event

    Additionally, depending on how you look, you can

    add in 45-60 minutes of cardio on Days 1-5.

    Rest Recovery

    One of the most important factors of this week leading up to an event is rest. You will be

    putting your body through a crazy regimen over the course of a week, so its important

    to take precautions and allow yourself to recover. This means doing everything in your

    power to keep your body running at 100%, even if youre pushing the limits physically.

    Here are some keys practices I use to stay rested during Peak Week:

    Get at least 8 hours of sleep per night during this week. You are doing excessive

    training and cardio, while depleting nutritionally. If you dont get ample rest

    during this week, you could set yourself up for injury.

    Consider getting a deep tissue massage earlier in the week to help release

    tension, promote relaxation and alleviate unwanted stress.

    Be sure to take a full day of rest prior to the day of the event. This will help

    replenish energy levels and prime your body for the absolute best look the

    following day.

    Sodium

    In addition to the training, diet and water manipulation, you can also play with sodium

    intake throughout the week to further enhance your appearance. However, I would only

    manipulate sodium intake if you are

    Taking The Perfect After Photo

    You have worked incredibly hard leading up to this week and of course during this week,

    so its important to display your hard work in the best way possible! Regardless of the

    event you are prepping for, you will want to have a photo on the day of the event to

    showcase your physique. The last thing you want to do is bring a great physique to the

    day of the event and leave with no proof do to poor photos and execution (been there).

    Here are some tips for nailing that perfect after photo:

    Make sure to show up tanned on the day of the event. A darker complexion will

    accentuate all of the cuts and lines that you have worked hard for. If you dont

    want to jump into a tanning bed, simply get a spray tan to help bring out every

    last bit of definition.

    Be sure to remove all visible body hair. This may sound a bit odd if you have

    never shaved, but it makes a HUGE difference in bringing out all of the definition.

    Pump up before the event or shoot. Lifting some lift weights to get the blow

    flowing is always a good idea before displaying your work. Remember, you didnt

    work out the day before, so you may be a little flat, but nothing a few quick sets

    cant fix.

    Practice posing or flexing prior to the day of the event. Even if you arent

    preparing for a photo shoot or competition, its important to practice keeping

    things tight before the day of the event. Practice keeping the abs tight and

    holding them tight for long lengths of time and be sure to stand/walk with proper

    posture. The little things go a long way!

    Supplementation with Dandelion Root

    Finally, after you have everything else in place, I would recommend supplementing with

    a natural diuretic such as Dandelion Root for the duration of the week. Dandelion Root

    has a high concentration of vitamins and minerals that have been proven to promote

    normal digestion, regularity and blood circulation.

    In addition, it is also quite effective as a natural

    diuretic meaning it helps the body shed excess

    water. I would use Dandelion Root as follows:

    Day 1: 1,000mg x 1 per day

    Day 2: 1,000mg x 2 per day

    Day 3-7:1,000mg x 3 per day

    Conclusion

    Taking all of these things into account meticulously for a 7-Day period will result in a

    dramatic change to your physical appearance. However, I would only recommend using

    this method when it is absolutely needed, as it does put a good bit of stress on the

    body. Enjoy these Cover Model Secrets and let me know what you think!
