The fitness industry is extremely tough to navigate as a beginner because of the sheer amount of “gurus” proclaiming they have the “secrets” to getting ripped.

If you hit the popular fitness sites, you’ll find contradictory advice at every turn. 

-Some people say you have to eat bland “clean” foods to get ripped, while others will say you can do it eating junk food.
-Some say you should focus on higher rep “pump” training, while others say you have to focus on heavy lifting.
-Some say you have to eat meals every few hours, while others say meal frequency is irrelevant.
-Some say high-protein diets are key, while others say it’s not that important.
-Some say genetics play a huge role, while others say they’re barely a factor.

How can you know who’s right and who’s wrong? How can you know who to listen to?

Let’s get started.
