I was never close to fat, average build if anything, and the HIIT helped me drop that excess fat brilliantly, but the sheer amount of cardio meant I was burning too many calories and losing mass. Also, if you're not making every calorie you eat count you'll never get that ripped look.
Just be careful with it dude, it's great for losing weight, but if you're trying to gain muscle as you stated in a previous thread then don't worry about the 6 pack cutting stuff now or you'll end up one of this weird sticky skinny guys with pencil thin arms and legs and a point blank out-of-place six pack.

what exactly is the HIIT thing , can u gimme the basics of what u did for 12 weeks? i'll do the same thing and be jacked like this guy in the picture, so far i just chill on the treadmil for 10-15 mins a few days a week and lift random weights but nothing with intensity, how do i incorporate high intensity into my workouts?
and to vitrol. i'm to lazy to make account elsewhere and letsbeef has alotta emcees who stay fit so i'm interested how they manage their success
