How to get a Beach Body(for males)

Model: Kishlay Singh

Okey…so let me get this straight. I’ve been blogging about certain topics for the past few weeks, and unfortunately, none of them were related to ‘hard-core’ fitness. Now I feel my blog posts have started to get monotonous (posts on psychology and all)…so decided to have a change of air. In this post I will be giving you the best advice on how can you get that coveted ‘beach body’ you see on televisions, and wish you too had one. Ready?

Men exercise for a number of reasons. Some just want to say fit and healthy(on recommendation of their physicians), while others hit the gym to get that herculean, beast-like body of  Arnold Schwarzenegger. While the craze for pumping iron has not receded completely, majority of the modern ladies seem to have changed their predilections. Most women now shuns at the idea of walking around with a huge, fleshy, monstrous, primordial hunter, instead preferring a guy who’s athletic, humorous, emotionally caring, and financially set(the last one may not be evident in high-school love, but honestly, it’s always a plus point to have some money in your pocket while you ask a girl out). The big, brawny creatures were once fancied by the ladies when evolution required them to be protected from wild threats (Ladies, imagine an age where you live in a forest, and need to kill a builder-beast for the dinner, for you can’t buy meat from the butcher. You’d definitely have to depend on your 'Micheal Kefalianos-type' husband to get some food for the night). But the same evolution has now conditioned women in seeking mates who are rich and smart and handsome. The wild animals are no longer a part of our society and the hunters are no longer needed. Beach body is the ideal athletic body that now majority of women eroticses about.

While men exercises for a number of reasons, your motive behind workout should be about something more than just staying fit and healthy. If you want that notoriously sculpted body that turns ladies' eyes on you every time you walk bare-bodied on the beach, it’s time to start this enduring journey right-away . It’s takes real hard work and dedication, trust me, and also a lot of sacrifices. You’ll understand once you start your journey in this direction.

Getting a beach body is tricky. I prefer to call it a subtle form of body modification, because you change your body against your genetics. There are two factors involved in growth: Environmental and Genetic. On an average, both work in unison to give you the kind of body you have. In average people, the genetic factors overcome the environmental factors. This happens when you’ve got no control over the diet you eat, and the kind of life you live, and the amount of workout you do. You eat what your mommy or your wifey or your nanny cooks for you, and you’re bound to attend to your vocation, your college or whatever it may be. You barely get time to hit the gym regularly. Result? An unsatisfied body you snub at!

The difference between a beach-model and a normal person is that those models have the environmental factors in their control, and they use it to their own advantage. To get a beach body you’ve got to take control of the environmental factors and learn to use it to your own advantage. And it should be a part of your own skill-package to find out how to manage time and resources in such a busy and economical world. If you’re unable to do that, unfortunately, you won’t be a able to get that ideal beach body—a bitter reality.  I have really put a lot of endeavor to get that, and now I have something I take pride in.  It’s on this basis that I educate other people about health and fitness. (It was Mahatma Gandhi Ji who once said, ‘If you want to correct others, you must correct yourself first’; and in my context, to advice others on how to get a beach-body, I had to first work out to get one for myself)

What I advice you is to make ‘workout’ your virtue, and live it. Incorporate exercise and yoga in your lifestyle, buy home gym equipments, and exercise whenever you get time. Start from easy ones, and finally increase the intensity of your workout. Hang pictures of your favorite model everywhere in your house, so as to stay motivated. And most importantly, join communities and health clubs that foster a comfortable ambience for workout. When you feel connected to the people who share similar interests, you’re more more passionate to live your virtue. Besides these, incorporate all others things you feel will help you get what you picture in your mind.

This is the best advice I can give you, for I've never followed a written set of instructions to get what I now feel proud of having. It was just experimentation, experience , trial and error, and motivation.
