Well actually, me and a shit load of other trainers have always preached the following: if you want to lean out, you will lean out in a way that your body WANTS to lean out… and you can’t do a damned thing about it. This means that if the umbilical region (belly) is the 1st choice for fat storage for YOUR body, then that’s where it will go. Then it will go on to the next site and the next site. So if you’ve let yourself “go” in the past and now want a 6pack… guess which section of the body is bound to let go of the fat near the end?

Hint: Reverse the order Sherlock!

So this means we have to rely on our genetics and some luck. Some people’s bodies prefer storing fat in the legs and arms before the belly region (lucky bastards) while others store it on their chest and back area first (this is good for chicks… bad for dudes). So what can you do if you don’t really care about the fat over your quads but want to “target” the fat over your stomach?

Well the answer used to be “nothing” or “surgery”. However, there is a new method that is changing all of this. It’s called Biosignature Modulation and it was created by one of the best strength coaches around, Charles Poliquin.

The idea behind it is as simple as it is genius. Charles has worked with top level athletes for the past 30 years (I’m talking NFL, NHL and Olympic level) and took all the empirical data of their fat levels and came up with a system where he could pinpoint which hormone in your body (such as insulin) is responsible for storing fat in a specific area. Then, through diet, exercise & supplementation (mainly diet and supplementation) he can adjust the culprit hormone levels so you end up losing fat and lean out in the areas that YOU want. No surgery required.

How fucking awesome is that? Now first of all, the process is obviously more complicated than my layman explaination, but I wanted to give you a brief overview. The Biosignature method is also something I’ve only read (a lot) about and have been following it’s development for years so I don’t want to talk too much out of my ass right now…

Which is why when I found out that there will be a seminar coming to my local gym, I jumped on the girl at the front desk… no wait, I jumped at the opportunity of hitting it up. It will be held this Saturday and I feel like Christmas has come early this time of year. I’ve always wanted to hit up the full-out Biosignature Modulation course and be a fully “certified” but that requires flying out to cities and a shit load of cash. It was on my “to-do” list and now I’ll be getting a big ass sneak peek into this whole mess.

… I feel sorry for the person giving this seminar. He/She is about to be absolutely ass raped with questions. But here is where YOU come in. While I have a boat load of questions that I’ll want to ask, I need to know if any of you have questions about Biosignature Modulation. If so, post em’ in the comments section below and I’ll try my best to make them answer it. I will then write that shit down and throw up a “Part 2” post.

The things I do for ya’ll…
