"My Wife Got in Shape, so I Had to Do the Same to Keep Up with Her"
I always believed the hype I read in the bodybuilding magazines. I thought that I had to carb up before the workout,I thought that I had to bulk up to build muscle and all sort of other crazy stuff.
Once my wife Naomi got in shape by following the Venus Index, I decided to do the same and bought myself a copy of the Adonis Index program. After going through it I was amazed. It was all based on research, math and science. And math doesn't lie my friend. I was hooked after reading this. I was like, okay I got what I need to do know, let's do it.
Long story short, I did it and got great results.
Other people argue with me that I still need to carb up before my workout, spread my meals throughout the day, but when I look at them and then at myself, I look ten times better than them.
I believe in the Adonis Index program and what I have learnt by following this system is all I need to know.
I still can't believe that I did this amazing transformation in just three months. But I did and if I can do it, you can too. It's all about the mental shift. You need to commit yourself to following the program and go from one workout to the next one.
Adonis Index is based on science and math, you are shooting for a golden ratio that is the key. You will have a specific and measurable goal. A goal that is tailored to your own body shape, not somebody else. This is what makes it the number one workout program.

"Sometimes more can be achieved with less, if you know what you are doing...
The workout structure is the key"
Other thing is that if you want to hang out with or around good looking girls you need to look good too. Women are more forward to me, because they like what they see.
Girls understand what it takes to get in shape and if you are not willing to make that effort then you will end up with somebody you don't want.
Before I got into a relationship with my girlfriend I knew I need to step up my game to hang out with her otherwise no relationship would be possible. Recently she said that I make her feel really comfortable, safe and that she is around me because she can feel the natural confidence I have. And this is all because I got my body handled.
You slowly changes as you improve your physique, your confidence level goes up. And that is very attractive to everybody, both males and females.
And you don't have to spend your life in the gym. I thought I will have to spend most of my day in a gym. Sometimes more can be achieved with less, if you know what you are doing. The workout structure is the key.
Adonis Index workout has simplified my life and made it a lot easier. It has been freeing in a lot of ways since I started training with this system.
Thanks John for putting this program together.
The only downside is that you will have to get used to compliments you are going to receive on daily basis once you get in shape.

In the past I never realized in how bad shape I was. Due to my fat storage pattern I had almost no fat on my abs and it was stored on other body parts instead, so my stomach was pretty flat, but I was far away from fit, I know that now.
I tried several approaches, I even did the whole paleo, evolutionary and natural way of eating stuff, whatever that is supposed to mean.
Then I found you guys. And all you said, it really made sense, plus you obviously walk the talk, because both you John and Brad are in a great shape.
Thanks to Adonis Index, I realized that I have to progress in my workouts, I have to watch my diet, but I don't have to cut out social events. Quite the opposite. Before the transformation, I would just sit at home and came up with dozen excuses why not to go out, for example I would try to convince myself that I'm tired or something.
Today, I'm planning on doing something out all the time, it's amazing. I'm not embarrassed about my look anymore and I feel really confident.
I can see small changes in my social life day to day and looking back, literally just couple of months, make me realize how glad I'm for trying the AI systems.
Now when I'm on a spotlight I don't try to run from it, I enjoy it. People are asking me for advice and complimenting me on my look all the time and it feels great. This is almost impossible to fully explain, you have to live it to believe and really understand how your looks contributes to the amount of success and happiness you have in your life.
I like to go to the public more and go out with other people, I never had that urge before. I transformed from introvert to extrovert.
I built muscles on specific parts of my body, leaned out and got close to my AI ratio and all this has contributed to a big change in my social interactions. The way I carry myself and act in different social venues is completely different. And all I did was spent my launch hour at the gym for several months and watched my diet a bit, nothing groundbreaking.
People think I have to live in the gym, but truth to be told I spend just my launch break doing weight training and that's it. I don't consume 8 protein shakes a day and I don't worry about meal timing or macronutrients. And I go out a lot.
It's tough to be honest with yourself and admit that you are not in shape and that your social life sucks. However, if you can be that much honest with yourself, you are one step ahead and that means you CAN make the change if you decide and commit to it.
Just tell yourself this is where I am, this is what I need to do and let's do it.
The Adonis Index approach makes sense and it's probably what you have been looking for - simple to follow, without any outrageous fitness rules, flexible and within few weeks you will start seeing results, trust me - I am a living proof of that.

Mike's Story
"I Made a Decision to Get to the Best Shape of My Life and Look like a Magazine Cover Model at the Age of 40"
Before I stumbled upon Adonis Index program I was already working out for a while, but I was overweight and never seen my abs and just never gotten to that leanness where you can see your muscle definition.
I was never satisfied with my look, but I was afraid of stepping out of my comfort zone and losing the fat I had on my hard-built muscles.
I always felt I could do better, but there is always something that will prevent you from getting in shape if you allow it.
However, I decided to put this to an end and finally stepped up my game. In 40 I decided that I gotta do something here and I will get to the best shape of my life, I have an opportunity to do it; kids are getting older, so I have the time that I can dedicate to more training, dieting and learning about new approaches. I had no clue what being in shape means, but basically I set a goal of looking like a fitness magazine cover model.
I started reading magazines and following their advice. I learnt a lot, but sadly for me, I later figured out that the advice I got from those fitness magazines was as far from the truth as it could get.
My biggest misconception was that adding new muscle will somehow magically melt away fat and that the fat will vanish in front of my eyes.
I was lead to believe that pound of muscle will burn 50 calories of fat, so I thought to myself if I put on about 20 pounds of muscle I will burn 500 extra calories of fat a day just by watching TV and not doing anything.
I began my quest to add muscle by training like a maniac and massively overeating. God what was I thinking.
If it were true it would be great, if it worked like that, you could just work out and eat your way up to leanness.
I did what I read in the magazines, basically eating big to be big. I ate tons of protein, because I thought that since it's the building block of every muscle, I need it or my muscles will fall apart. Same went for pre-workout and post-workout meals. It was ridiculous.
I read some article from a famous bodybuilder about eating 7000 calories spread into 10 meals. So, I tried eating 4000 calories and whenever I felt hungry I would just take some protein bar on top of that.
I was also consuming glutamine, because it seemed like I should be eating it, since all the magazines were talking about it at that time. Long story short, all this resulted in a pretty fast weight gain, which of course was mostly fat.
I found out the hard way that this premise is not true thus this eating more and building muscle for weight loss is crap.
At 200 pounds I thought cool I'm getting bigger, people are noticing the change, but what I didn't' realize was that I was just shirt on big, but shirt off, it was all fat. Once I hit 210 pounds I was getting some self-doubt and then when I got to 220 pounds I realized that this wasn't the part of my plan and this isn't how I imagined 220 would look and feel.
I felt uncomfortable, I could feel the fat on my hips, ankles and I even got some weird water retention issues and my ankles would puff up, which was pretty scary. It's not a good feeling to be stuffed with food all the time.
Obviously this wasn't working and I had to figure out a new plan.
After scanning the internet for days and days I found John and Brad's Adonis Index website. I watched some of their YouTube vides and listened to their podcasts. And it all made sense.
Once I saw how John transformed his body and that he came from pretty much my weight and got to an incredible shape I decided to give it a chance and bought the program.
Once I went through it I realized that his system and methods were based on science and math, which I was happy to discover. That was a big change compared to all those fancy tips from fitness magazines and magic pills from supplement companies or unrealistic diet advice from bodybuilders.
With Adonis Index program I managed to slim down and keep the muscle, hell I even put more muscle on WHILE I WAS DIETING. That is crazy; I never thought that would be possible before.
John broke it down and said it's just math, he made it simple, put it into easy to follow step-by-step system anybody can apply to their own lifestyle situation.
Looking back now, I could have saved myself lot of frustration and years of looking terrible. Adonis Index program helped me transform my body into an amazing and ripped shape.
And if I can do it at the age of 40 with two kids and work, then anybody can do it too!
