There are not as many ripped muscle building secrets as the muscle and fitness magazines would have you believe.  There are some new techniques that you can learn but for the most part those magazines want to sell you a bunch of muscle mass supplements because they are owned by the companies that make the supplements. So you are not getting totally unbiased advice. 

If you want the best muscle mass workouts, you are going to have to stay away from the magazines that are subsidized by advertising.  So that leaves you with books, home study courses, and products you see online.You can find a program like No Nonsense Muscle Building and get results in 3 hours per week not 3 hours per day.  Compare that to some of the muscle building programs that require 1-3 hours per day.  No one has time for that. 

There are other programs out there like the Truth About Six Pack Abs where you can get the high intensity workout plans that get you working out and back to your life in under an hour.Best of all, you can see results in a few short weeks instead of many long months.  My advice would be to try one of these programs so you can start getting ripped and more respect instead of giggles and laughs when you take off your shirt.
