It’s everywhere, people in perfect shape peddling the perfect product to get you into the best shape of your life. The testimonials are great as well. The slow music, the mood lighting, the tears; whatever it takes to convince you that the new slinky they are selling will get you to look just like the super model presented in the commercials. They use words like REAL PEOPLE, SIX PACK ABS, and GET RIPPED QUICKLY, to get you pumped up. You have seen these commercials! They even use really cool exercise moves to challenge you to purchase these products promising you that the weight will fall off in no time or money back guaranteed.
HOWEVER!!! That is not the whole story! To a trained eye one of the biggest things that I usually notice right off the cuff is that most of these promises literally violate many laws of science! When you see some huge guy on TV telling you he got it all done in 3 months, it’s most likely nonsense. Particularly if the person in the video looks likes he can bench press 500 pounds! It’s simply not possible to achieve that level of fitness in three months unless you just happen to be a genetic natural phenomenon.
In response to these gimmicks and misleading advertisings I created the Armageddon Fitness Dictionary to translate fitness and weight loss claims and what they most likely mean.
So here we go!
IF THEY SHOW YOU THIS |
THIS IS WHAT IS MOST LIKELY MEANS |
1. Guys that look like they can bench press 500 pounds!
|
It means he has been working out for years not 3 months!
|
2. If the guy has an unusual amount of veins popping.
|
He is most likely taking a drug or supplement that might not be safe.
|
3. Look and listen closely to the testimonials – If the person says he/she has been working out for years but has not gotten the results they were looking for until they tried product X or Y.
|
Pay attention to the fact that “they have been working out for years”, therefore, you will not get anywhere close to the results that they got unless you have been working out for years too!
|
4. If they are trying to sell you a supplement, run!
|
Run Run Run! Your solution is not in a jar or vial.
|
5. When they say “medical” weight loss
|
Drugs! Drugs! Drugs! Not sustainable – ALL drugs have side effects. Did you know that 53% of all doctors are overweight? I like doctors quite a lot and work with them quite a lot. However you may want to discuss no drug options with your doctor. If your doctor does not know how to get you there without drugs buy a copy of Armageddon Weight Loss Fitness Program or call me, I can help.
|
6. If they keep showing you lots of pictures of the personal trainer bodies and not real clients.
|
This means that most clients get mediocre results and they lack sufficient evidence that their product work.
|
7. If they use lots of young hot people in their commercial.
|
They are trying to distract you with youth! Most of us looked better when we were younger. Skip all that nonsense! You want a realistic view of what YOU most likely will look like after using their product.
|
8. Always notice what shape the person was in before they began. Pay close attention to their starting weight also.
|
The top two leading workout videos show people who are already in reasonably good shape. Most users just needed a 5 – 10 % change. If that is not you and you need 40-100% change, the product being advertised will not work for you! If it will work at all.
|
9. Just because the product is popular does not mean it works!
|
One of the most popular fads right now starts with the letter “Z” with lot of people dancing their way to temporary weight loss results. The problem is that this approach will not deliver the sustainable results that most people are looking for and the vast majority of the successes were not delivered by the actual product alone. Plus, most users do not fully understand the science behind how they scientifically got their results which means they most likely will not keep their results.
|
10. ALL DIET PROGRAMS ALONE WILL FAIL!
|
Perhaps some of you are currently using a diet program. The problem is that diets have not been proven to provide toned muscles or build muscles! Sure you can go do some exercise separately but you really need the exercise instructions to correspond to your workout or you will fail at some point because you are only doing a percentage of what is required to get to your goal and to keep your results. Diet alone programs also is strongly responsible for yoyo progress.
|
11. Workout program that only have one speed. For example if it is advertised as being intense or if it says for beginners.
|
The problem with this option is that you need progressive workout not one speed. All workout DVD programs (except for Armageddon Weight Loss Fitness Program) have only one speed. You need step by step progressive instructions and your nutrition needs to be synchronized with the increase in intensity and progression of your workouts.
|
12. Gym with “pretty” equipment
|
It does not matter how much equipment is in the gym or how many new pieces of equipment are available if you don’t know how to use them. Plus, some sometimes the older equipment is better designed.
