is amazing. Plants, animals, humans, insects and ecosystems,
left on their own, over time adapt to their environment to not
just exist, but to thrive. Each species is designed to do whatever
it does best. For example, carnivores like wolves, lions and
tigers are built to hunt and kill. They're strong and fast with
sharp teeth and powerful jaws. And all this happens naturally.
When they are born, their parents don't sit them down and explain
to them what they have to do to become skilled hunters-they
just go about living their lives and they develop that way naturally.

Animals in
nature don't go to the gym. They don't lift weights,
they don't do cardio, they don't read about the latest hot training
routine and they don't go on diets. Yet despite the fact that they
don't do any of these things, wolf cubs, lion cubs and others grow
up to be skilled hunters with lean but incredibly strong bodies.
Why? Because they live their lives the way nature intended, doing
the activities that nature intended them to be doing without giving
it any thought. It's like this throughout nature, with all species.
What does this have to do with building a better body and why should
you care? A lot-and I am going to tell you why.
Over the last thousand years or so,
man has gotten soft. By nature, we're hunter-gatherers, meaning
that our bodies are built both to hunt and to forage for food-we
kind of get the best of both worlds. But as our society has become
more civilized we've moved away from doing the things that nature
intended our bodies to be doing. And as a result, for the most part
we've become flabby, soft and out-of-shape. We don't have to hunt
down animals and kill them with our bare hands or with simple tools
and we don't have to traverse long distances, searching for fruits,
vegetables and nuts. When we did have to do those things every day
in order to survive, we developed naturally lean and strong bodies-without
even thinking about it.
Today though, we go to the gym, use
machines, moon over the latest fad diet or hot new supplement. And
what's the result? More people than ever before are overweight or
obese. Our intellect and knowledge have grown exponentially but
yet overall, we're in progressively worse shape than at any time
in our history. What's the problem? I'll tell you what the problem
is-it's us. When man intervenes things start to get all mucked up.
We've moved away from living the
way nature intended us to live. We train at the gym doing exercises
that are unnatural and wonder why we don't get results. Our ancestors
didn't do this but yet they thrived. Look at the warrior cultures
like the Spartans, the Vikings, the Roman Gladiators and others.
They didn't have gyms but they developed lean, powerful, muscular
bodies. They got that way because they did what they had to do to
survive. They trained every day not doing isolated, contrived movements,
but using compound movements that incorporated a variety of training
styles and developed real-world skills.
Our ancestors didn't order carry-out
food. If they were hungry they had to go out and forage or hunt.
And while doing this, sometimes they got chased by wolves, bears
or other humans. Food had to be carried across distances. If they
killed a bear, they probably had to drag it a long ways back to
camp. And the warrior cultures did the same thing-trekking across
the land wearing their heavy battle gear and lugging cumbersome
weapons, supplies and even wounded soldiers. These are the kinds
of activities that are bodies were built to do. When we did those
things on a daily basis, we just naturally got the best results
without even thinking about it. Our ancestors-the hunter/gatherers
and the warrior cultures developed into what they were and thrived
because if they didn't, they would have perished.

And if we today
want to see the same kind of results and be lean, muscular,
strong and healthy, we need to stop looking for the magic
bullet and look to our past. We need to get primal and train
the way nature intended our bodies to train. To get really
healthy and get the bodies we want we need to exercise the
way our ancestors lived by getting primal in our workouts.
So how's a modern guy supposed to "get primal" in
his workout? One of the best ways to train like our ancestors
is by following training strategies like Lean Hybrid Muscle
Training and others.
As you may already
know hybrid muscle training is a training philosophy. It incorporates
the best of bodybuilding, powerlifting, strongman and cardio
and combining them into a cohesive training philosophy that
essentially mimics the sorts of intense physical activities
our ancestors would have done on a daily basis.
The approach runs
totally contrary to most of what you may have read in magazines
but most "revolutionary" ideas have done the same.
It's a way to burn fat and build muscle at the same time,
without the hit or miss-mostly miss-hassles of bulking and
cutting. Lean Hybrid Muscle Training will really supercharge
workouts and completely maximize your results.

It's no secret that our ancestors
were physically, in much better shape than overall, we are
today. For ordinary people, their day-to-day lives were
much more physically demanding than ours. Back in the day
if you wanted to eat you had to go hunting or catch some
fish. Everything was functional. In today's world most of
us are subject to the triple seated threat as I like to
call it-sitting at our computers, sitting in the car or
sitting on the couch.

explore how some of this planet's all-time greatest elite
warriors of the past developed some legendary physiques.
