Instead of getting ripped, just add your handicap to the grade, and you'll realize you're already CRUSHING the gnar.

Here's the formula:

BMI-24 = Handicap

Each Handicap point = 1 letter grade.

For me, at a BMI of 28, when I totally OS that sick 11a, after applying my handicap I realize I'm even sicker than I knew because it was a 12b.

So, with your 11 point icecream Handicap, you're already teh strongest climber in teh world!

The only thing that will get you ripped faster then the plank is the MAX PLANCK.

I actually don't understand the adjective grades at all, but I'm going to pretend like I do:

So, if you can't see your feet, it makes it way scarier. And if you haven't seen your junk without a mirror in 5 years, you're already mentally a little off balance. So, it doubles the seriousness of the climb.

HVS * Can't See the boys = E11.

Oh, and letter grades and aussie grades are the same thing.

Well, it works out to be an advantage...

Bacon really should be on the can't give up list... I don't care if it is pork... it deserves it's own spot on the list

I agree with Erin, bacon is key... There are many different food groups of bacon, and eating a variety of bacons will make you RIPPED.

I read JT's book, I already said that. The book is a nutrional book, so I know what I'm saying, okay?

Look- food is basically simple - if I like the taste it is because my body NEEDS ICE CREAM, okay?

So I don't know how many times I have to ask this simple question again over and again more:

WHAT FLAVOUR OF ICE CREAM DO I NEED TO STOP EATING TO MAKE ME RIPPED?

Apple. Dumbass.

Curry ice cream is fucking disgusting.

by "curry" I assume you are refering to a blend of Indian spices such as cardamom, turmeric, cloves, cumin, corriander, chili powder, etc.

I can tell you that CARDAMOM ice cream is delicious.

I can live by this. I think I would add to your list Avocado Ice-cream.

As far as bacon goes- I heard that chocolate* covered Bacon is a healthy snack.

* Substitute Carob if you are feeling really adventerous

It's not that you need to stop eating ice cream it's just that you were eating the wrong kinds.

This is the flavor you need to eat:


raw horse flesh!

or maybe:


Fried eggplant!

and everybody loves:


Indian curry ice cream!

The very BEST ice cream I've ever eaten was a Baklava ice cream from Baskin Robins. It was a temporary thing so afterwards I tried making it at home just by grinding up regular ice cream with baklava... absolutely amazing!

Why not write JT a p.m since its his book that you are following.
Maybe he's keeping a diet secret Laugh
about becoming ripped,
Maybe its not the flavour of ice cream, does he eat only ice cream cones? Pirate

Don't be ridiculous Sungum, everyone knows that you have to pyramid your food groups. Green, white and brown are the basic food groups. Use that as your base and go form there.

I am in your exact same position. I want to get cut before the end of year school beach trip but I don't have the time or cash to buy only super super organic things, and I am not a fan of fruits or vegetables.

I have taken up weight training in addition to climbing and martial arts, and have completely given up fast food. I have been eating a good amount of bananas lately (the only fruit I can really get in to) and have been drinking protein shakes everyday. i use Optimum Nutrition's Gold Standard Whey since you get 5.13 pounds of whey powder for 40$ and it has 24g or protein a scoop!
So far my biceps haven't really improved in size at all, but I started doing bench press for the first time in my life and I have made pretty noticeable size and strength gains in 6 months of bench press.
I'm also very lucky to have a naturally very low body fat %.
