"The Physique Formula" - Muscle Building
Secrets of the World's Best Cover Models

Book By Jimmy Smith

Basically, Jimmy's book is a "total package" type of training manual targeted to the "skinny-fat" person, covering exercise, training programs, eating, supplementation, hormone balancing, heck, even posture!

I have to say, Jimmy's done a really nice job of covering the bases here - he's even included things you normally wouldn't even think of in a training program and really explained things well.

But, let's go back to "skinny-fat" for a second. If you're not familiar with the term, I'd like to make a really bad joke here and say that's the name of a rapper, but that would be awful and I just won't do that to you...

Review - The Physque Formula By Jimmy Smith

Think of "skinny-fat" as a person who LOOKS skinny yet still carries a significant amount of bodyfat. Now, because they don't carry a whole lot of muscle either, the fat doesn't necessarily hang out there like you would think it would.

"Skinny-fat" people also tend to have a tough time gaining muscle without adding a lot of fat as well.

THIS is what Jimmy attacks with his program - in fact, the first chapter of the book is Jimmy's OWN story of himself as a "skinny-fat" person (picture a skinny guy with a BIG stomach).

And in my experience, when the info is coming from a guy who's been there himself and actually LIVES what he teaches AND shows the results to prove it, THAT is when you know you've got your hands on some good information.

Jimmy's first target is hormones - he's included a very plausible hormonal explanation for why "skinny-fat" people have such a tough time gaining muscle while keeping the fat off. I can tell he's done his research with this but the good thing is, you don't need a PhD to read it. It's all in layman's terms - you'll have no problem understanding it and relating it to your own situation.

Supplementation is next on the list - he's got his top 10 list and I'm happy to say, it's good stuff. You won't find any "supplement of the month" garbage in here. Basic and effective but with some really interesting ideas that specifically attack the "skinny-fat" problem.

The Q&A section I found to have some really unique info that will actually contradict some of what you're read in other books and magazines. From his logic, I think his ideas DO have merit and I can see where he's going with things.

Jimmy's got a number of training programs included in the book package, covering beginner, intermediate and advanced. No matter what your level, you'll find a program to suit your needs. You're looking at 3 workouts a week - approximately 45 minutes each to get the job done. These are very complete and well thought-out.

One of the best things about Jimmy's program is that he's very much aware of the "real world" when it came to putting it all together.

He knows you don't want to be perfect ALL the time and his program takes that into account. You'll still get have a life, basically (he's actually got a bonus that covers this topic - The Physique Formula No Fail Social Guide: How to eat out, party and live life while still adding lean muscle).


OK, BUT WILL YOU GET RESULTS?

That's the bottom line, really! With the information you'll get in Jimmy's program, including all the bonus material (I'll list that below), you will definitely see excellent results.

Jimmy's put together a very effective program that addresses the specific needs of the "skinny-fat" physique. I give it a thumbs-up for sure.

One thing you should know up front is that upon purchase, you will also get a trial membership in the "Physique Formula" club. It's a charge that will show up after your first complimentary month is complete.

Definitely test it out for a month and enjoy the info - Jimmy covers a lot of great topics in it. If you like it, you can stay in… if you prefer not to have the recurring charge you can easily cancel any time.

#1 - The Complete Physique Formula Beginner-Intermediate 21 Week Program (valued at $27.95 )
#2 - The Advanced Physique Formula 21 Week System (valued at $27.95)

So that's the "skinny," so to speak (I didn't say I wouldn't throw in another bad joke :)

I think Jimmy's done an excellent job with it - he's got some really valuable insights into the problems a "skinny-fat" person faces when it comes to building muscle and staying lean.
