Vertical jump diet is a make-or-break kind of deal for getting the results you want.
Now, you don't need to get faddy with the diet, you don't need to get overzealous about having this crazy diet -a diet is really one of the hardest things to keep with your workout. But it's very, very important. Let me give you an example.
When I was doing some weightlifting before, I wanted to get to two hundred and fifteen pounds. And at the time, I was two hundred pounds. I'm six foot four, two hundred pounds, very high metabolism, so, it is really hard for me to gain weight. I struggled for one year trying to get to two hundred and fifteen pounds. Very hard workouts. Very intense workouts. And wondering why I wasn't putting on the type of muscle I wanted to put on. I was talking to all my friends who were bodybuilders, a lot them were a lot bigger than I was, and I was just wondering what I needed to do. They all told me, "You need to eat more, eat more, eat more." And I just kind of moved it aside and trained harder.
So if you're one of the people who's out there training very hard and wondering where your results are at, this tip might help.
Anyways, what I ended up doing is I changed to a fairly strict diet. I would have a protein shake in the morning mixed with some crushed up oatmeal, and then I would have one in the afternoon, at night. I would have a big lunch, a big dinner, and intermixed I'd have a total of about five protein shakes. Now that's fairly extreme, and you don't need to do that. But what happened is, in about four to six months, I put on thirty pounds of muscle.
When I was training hard and eating right, I put it on quicker than I ever have before. And I've since lost all that weight. You look at me now: I'm actually about two hundred and five pounds now. I've lost all that weight. But I'm also not eating as strictly as I should be.
