...It's about finding the right rhythm... There's
the "secret sauce" there - a science hidden in plain sight - appearing
in nature at both the cellular and the celestial level - and those who
get and keep their results stumble upon what makes these 3% successful:
After logging a half million miles per year flying around the globe training tens of thousands, I have seen the statistics in FIRST PERSON EXPERIENCE and have heard their objections, seen their challenges and felt their hurdles.
I
have also encountered those individuals in the 3%, and documented what
made them "tick" - concentrating as much energy in understanding the
tactics of success the three-percenters all used, as I did in helping
those 97% - like myself - through the systematic distillation of their
success tactics. These over-looked tactics are ignored by most people,
because media, marketeers and salesmen deafen us to the simple truths of
the three-percenters.
97% of people skip these secrets BECAUSE they're thought of as too basic to work. Even good genes won't help you, if you don't follow them with the right formula, for in a race between tactics and talent, tactics always win. And I CAN help you win, even if you apply only some of what I teach you,
you are going to succeed (and if you apply all of what I teach you,
you'll so far surpass your goals that you'll feel shocked you set the
bar as low as you had for yourself)...
Even
if you believe that you're so far gone, and so genetically
disadvantaged that you have no chance at accomplishing your goals.
... even if you embrace only one of the tactics...
The secret, as Einstein advised, is "simple, but no simpler."
You
can't find it in the fad industry magazines, because they've cluttered
their own head-space with gimmicks, gadgets and fads. They've deafened
you with "quick and easy" so you don't expect that you can take your
time, and feel safe that you can feel the raw pleasure of your body
working hard again.
Only 3% of people actually follow this one tactic... time under technique.
TUT
is often used to describe - time under tension. But in the applied
biomechanics I learned, it was taught that you can be tense in a way
that causes you pain and injury, but with technique, you will only ever
create better function, without pain and injury, without great soreness,
without energy fatigue, over-training and boredom.
Stop being hooked by long workouts that aren't giving you the results you want, and only leave you so hurting the next day that you can't move.
Stop being hooked by long workouts that aren't giving you the results you want, and only leave you so hurting the next day that you can't move.
Surpassing your goals will require that you move in the right way to instruct your nervous system how you want your body to perform. The better you hold your technique over time, the more your body becomes shaped to continue moving in the precise way you've asked it to move.
Think
of a martial artist. It's not how quick the fighter moves which gives
the shape of a fighter, but how perfectly practiced the technique. If
you want to be shaped like a fighter, perfect the skills of the style.
To be shaped like you, practice your techniques.
How you move is mirrored by your body. Move strong = look strong. Move well = be well.
Have you ever seen a beast of a man grunting out heavy tonnage with dangerous lack of good exercise form? Did he get big and strong? Sure. And what happens within a very short time? Big, strong guy with bad technique starts to look like his technique: like he's about to break. And he does. And he ends up finding me to put the pieces back together.

Big, strong guy with bad technique starts to look like his technique: like he's about to break. And he does. And he ends up finding me to put the pieces back together.
I'm TOTALLY FINE helping anyone, but I'd rather help people BEFORE their destroy themselves... because you can get the results without destroying yourself.
Do
I have anything against being a beast of a man? Nope. I'm not too small
myself. But I would rather, and tens of thousands of my students would
rather look like we can move powerfully without pain or injury.
How do you want to look? No matter what you do, you're going to look like what you do. But HOW you do it determines how YOU LOOK doing it - your time under technique creates your shape.

For
lean muscle, regardless of aging, traveling, working and stressing,
it's about taking short periods of time to perform clean technique.
(This also means that you need proper techniques as your foundation.)
But can you apply it in your actual life? What will it require of you to be able to apply this principle in your exercise - so your body has NO CHOICE but to become the movement you perform?
The most welcomed discovery comes in realizing these results come in only 20 minutes...
I named this new addition to the TACFIT fleet - the "Bodyweight and Dumbbell 45" - or BAD45 to
be succinct, because it takes the most fundamental, full-body,
functional bodyweight and dumbbell movements and organizes them in the
most succinct manner to optimize your results, while minimizing time
investment.
In a moment, I will tell you exactly how this works - and the reason that I have 100% faith that it repeats its results for EVERYONE who embraces it - but hold on for one moment, and let yourself ask the question:
"Why DID you research this? How do you KNOW for certain that this is the truth, and not just a theory?"
Believe me, my friends - I truly wish that this was just a theory that I devised sitting in my office one day. Unfortunately, for me, it was quite the long, difficult road of first-hand experience and then rigorous study and experimentation...

My
name is Scott Sonnon, for those of you who do not know me. I've spent
25 years traveling the globe, searching for the best kept secrets of the
"successful 3%" so that I could bring their tactics to those, like
myself, who need a simplified format for repeating successes.
As
a coach, I've created award-winning systems, books and videos. I've
taught my approaches behind the secure doors of the most elite
government facilities, as well as publicly to tens of thousands of
students worldwide. My approaches have been time-tested and proven effective over decades; my company itself has been producing my ideas since 1996!
But
a terrible accident...forced me to create this new body of work....
Teaching Jiujitsu to federal law enforcement, we slipped on the
sweat-pooled mats, and a "perfect collision" caused the vertebrae in my
neck to go off like popcorn at the site of an injury from the 1994 Grand
National Sambo Championships where I had been suplexed on the top of my
head. I couldn't lift my arm overhead even without weight.
You
can imagine my fear. I was just at the beginning of a long travel
season taking me to Vegas, NYC, Australia, Central America and Europe,
all in two months... This was how I made a living for my family!
Answers to Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why should I choose BAD45?
Many
people arrive at the "world's smartest workout" program after having
exhausted themselves in frustration with the inability to lose fat,
increase muscle mass, and increase their vital energy throughout the
day; or, if a program manages to achieve results, the results are more
quickly lost, plateaued, or result in injuries and pains.
Other
programs result in inevitable fat gain, muscle loss and energy
decrease, because they do not understand and honor the rhythm of your
hormonal wave throughout the day. Your biochemistry cycles once a day -
your circadian rhythm - and several times within that day - your ultradian rhythm.
If a program is not based upon these rhythms, no matter how hard you
work and regardless of how clean your diet is, you will not get the
results, or you will not keep them for very long.
BAD45
exploits cutting edge discoveries in exercise endocrinology, which
gives you entrance into three critical windows for your optimal
performance: the catabolic, or fat burning window, the anabolic, or
muscle building window, and the metabolic, or energy enhancing window.
Typically,
the units and agencies I train, must move quickly between forced,
prolonged, sedentary inactivity while suffering high stress levels
anticipating conflict, into rapid action requiring their entire bodies
to mobilize suddenly. Not only does this cause high level of injuries
and pains - the external environment of your musculo-skeletal system, it
wreaks havoc on their normal balance - your internal environment of
your endocrine, immune and neurological systems.
Even
people who are not in the tactical community can benefit from the
research done to support their injury free, pain-free fitness results,
by following the recommended steps in the BAD45 system of optimizing
hormones for fat burn, muscle gain, and energy enhancement.
To
make this as accessible as possible to the widest range of people, I
have used the most basic resistance training tools currently available
around the world: the humble dumbbell, and your own bodyweight. No
matter where you are, you have these inexpensive (the dumbbells) and
free (your bodyweight) tools.
To
save you enormous fees on gym memberships, to prevent you from facing
months and years of frustration not gaining your results or temporarily
getting results and then losing them due to regress, pains and injuries,
I offer you this revolutionary approach to burning fat, building
muscle, and enhancing your balanced energy throughout the day with
BAD45!
Q: Is BAD45 an acceptable program for someone considerably older than their 20's or 30's?
Actually,
the reason that BAD45 is perfect for people in their 20s and 30s is
because it was designed to work for people 45 and older! When you're
young, you can get 80% of your results by doing virtually any type of
exercise on nearly any indiscreet diet. However, you can't get that last
stubborn 20% unless you have the right timing.
When
you pass middle age, timing is everything, because your genetics were
designed to get you to the point that you procreate, but weren't
designed to let you live a long time in optimal vibrant fitness. BUT, if
you understand the science behind your hormones (called exercise
endocrinology), you can bring a scalpel to surgery instead of the
pickaxe of our 20s and 30s. BAD45 uses cutting edge discoveries in
exercise endocrinology to surgically strike at the optimal moment in the
perfect rhythm.
So,
although BAD45 is the ideal approach for those 45 and older, if you
want to have access to 100% of your fitness potential, in your 20s and
30s and beyond, this is the system for you!
Q: I am new to exercise. Can I still use this program?
If
you're new to exercise, this is the IDEAL PROGRAM for beginners! BAD45
uses simple movements cycled to maximize variety and skill mastery. By
following BAD45's unique design, not only will you feel quickly
confident even as a beginner, but you will find that you're mastering
your own movement more rapidly than you could have hoped.
Q. What makes BAD45 different from other fitness programs available on the market?
Nothing
on the market was designed for PORTABILITY, EFFICIENCY, SIMPLICITY and
EFFECTIVENESS. Imagine that you had access to the Coach of a USA
National Team, or the Trainer of a Special Operations Unit, or the
Instructor of a Federal Agent Academy. What would those three experts
have in common? They all need to be able to provide time and space
efficient solutions that anyone could simply perform without in-person
supervision in any conditions or environment, and achieve and surpass
all of the targeted results. That is precisely what you get in BAD45.
Furthermore,
there is NO other program on the market which considers the hormonal
impact of your training. Exercise is a biochemical event. Your muscles
are merely doing the work, but it's your biochemistry which gives you
the results. If your exercise and nutrition are not optimized to your
INTERNAL environment, then even if you perform the hardest workout in
the world, and have the best nutrition money could buy, it's not going
to help you.
This next comment will be highly controversial, but it is biochemically irrefutable: even
a less intense workout, with even a less than optimal diet, performed
at the right time in your recovery cycle, will be MORE results-producing
than the hardest workout on the best diet
There's
simply no other system which has been designed with optimizing your
hormones for fat-burn, muscle-growth and energy-increase like BAD45. By
hitting the three critical windows in your cycle of recovery - the
catabolic, the anabolic and the metabolic - you only need to follow the
turn-key daily calendar to achieve results you haven't been able to
access before, even when working your hardest and spending an enormous
amount of money on the "perfect diet."
Optimizing
your nutrition IS important, but again, it's like a very intense
workout: even if it's the best, if the timing is wrong, you're not going
to get the results you want. BAD45 tells you exactly which workout to
do on a particular day to have the OPTIMAL TIMING to surpass your goals!
Q: Can I do this program when I am away from home or the gym?
You
are never without your own bodyweight, and a dumbbell is the most
common tool in the world, and often the least expensive! Since you don't
need more than one pair of dumbbells, you can do this program anywhere,
even from the office, in a hotel, in the field, on vacation or out of
your car.
This
system was created to address the challenges of a busy schedule, so
that no matter where you are and what you're doing, you have access to
these scientific breakthrough discoveries in fat loss, muscle gain and
energy increase.
Q: I want to get in shape right away! How long will I have to wait until I can begin using this program?
As
soon as your doctor says you're cleared to do this type of exercise,
you can start immediately, because you can adjust it to your fitness or
recovery level.
Q: What equipment do I need to successfully use this program?
Just your own bodyweight and a pair of dumbbells!
Q: What dumbbell weights do I need to start this program?
It
is difficult to say with so many differences in strength. One pair of
dumbbells of the same weight will be needed for this program. For
beginning women: a pair of 6 to 12 pound dumbbells as a starting weight;
for beginning men: 15 to 35 pounds for starting weight. This is only a
general guideline for beginners. There will be exceptions and variations
to this guideline based upon strength, size and experience.
Q: How long until BAD45 begins to work for me?
Immediately.
There are three primary results gained through BAD45. The first you'll
experience immediately: energy increase. Through the re-balancing of
your internal environment, your metabolism will increase, but also you
won't be experiencing lulls in your daily cycle of energy. This has to
do with a unique "Pulsating Effect" of your hormone release. Increased
dopamine levels from this type of exercise make you feel better all day
long, and the increased serotonin levels from the type of exercise
included in the system will make you sleep better, setting up a chain
reaction leading to greater fitness results. The fat-burn will be
noticeable within the first 1-2 weeks and the muscle gain not long
after, but these are magnified due to the scientific approach to "Waving
Intensity" across the hormonal spectrum of exercise.
Q: Can you explain how these workouts burn calories?
Calories
burned DURING the workout is only one part of the whole picture. EPOC
(Excess Post-exercise Oxygen Consumption) is a process of increased
oxygen intake to address the debt you create with this type of exercise.
The greater the intensity of the exercise, the more debt you incur; and
your body responds by increasing oxygen use to restore your resting
state of hormonal balance.
Performing
these biochemical operations requires energy, and it extracts most of
this energy from fatty acids, where your body breaks down stored fat to
release fatty acids into general circulation, and carry them to your
cells where they provide the energy you need to return to a resting
state. The more effective that an exercise approach is in activating
your intensity, the more energy that it takes from fat stores.
Typical
cardio over long periods of time may burn calories, but it has a
limited EPOC yield, so basically you burn calories with cardio, but you
don't optimize your hormones to burn fat and build muscle.
Studies
have shown that after the type of workouts found in BAD45, the EPOC
effect can still be found up to 38 hours after the workout. Your
hormones are causing fat-burn to fuel the restorative process for 38
hours after your workout. Furthermore, with the type of intensity of
exercise in BAD45, you have an increase in the muscle-building hormone
sites - called androgen receptors - not just post-workout, but also for
up to 48 hours afterward.
Due
to the unique timing technology based upon cutting edge discoveries, we
now know that when the hormones start to slow down, we can accelerate
their return again, through a precise "Intensity Wave" found in this
system. This is why you will find a unique combination of metabolic
(energy lifting), catabolic (fat burning) and anabolic (muscle building)
windows in BAD45.
BAD45 was designed with 5 different levels of access:
1. RESTART - for those who've been away from exercise for a long time.
2. REBUILD - for those who've taken a short break from exercise.
3. STRENGTH - for those who've been exercising, yet are not getting the results they want, and are ready for the next step.
4. MASS - for those who had been getting results but have plateaued and can't continue to grow.
5.
REFINE - for those who've had a consistent exercise program, but who
are really looking for the next step in hormonal optimization for that
last 20% of results they've never been able to (re)gain.
Q: What if BAD45 does not work for me?
Having
trained tens of thousands of people from around the world, no one has
ever said this approach of hormonal balance through exercise waved
timing did not work for them. However, if for some reason you become the
first in history, there's a 100% money back guarantee for sixty days.
But don't worry, you will be so surprised by how fast and complete and
permanent these results come, that you'll only wonder how you got the
program for such a steal!
Q:
Can I use other RMAX International products (such as Tactical
Gymnastics and Powerformance Kettlebell) in conjunction with the new
BAD45 program?
Yes,
you can integrate any program, especially Tactical Gymnastics and
Powerformance Kettlebell, into your BAD45 training, due to the nature of
the format. When you read the BAD45 Guidebook, you will learn how you
can incorporate any other fitness approaches in a manner which will hit
the 3 critical windows in your internal environment so you burn fat,
build muscle and increase energy.
Please
start by training with BAD45 as it is recommended. Let the easy-to-use,
simple-to-follow steps guide you through the formula, and then, once
mastered, incorporate other hormonally balancing programs in the RMAX
fleet of high-performance longevity, like Tactical Gymnastics and
Powerformance Kettlebell.
