A local Doc came to me this week to see if I could help him come up with a new campaign to try and combat the growing problem of obesity amongst his patients. He said he wanted something subtle, motivating and that would kick-start change. I came up with the above. The Doc had some initial doubts, but as soon as we ironed them out in a headlock deadlock he loved it. Good luck Doc – let me know how it goes.

Love thy neighbour? Then put those prying eyes to use with my new NeighbourFood Watch scheme. Next time you are poke-nosing through the dining room window of the house opposite, check what’s on their plate. If you don’t see at least 2 of their 5 a day on there, you call me.

With my new blades I can be anywhere in London in 1 ½ half minutes for a Pillar Pep Talk.

Just call 0800-NO-VEG. Calls cost 35p from landlines, mobiles may be higher.

Why is it when you Brits have problems you look to people like Jeremy Kyle?  There ain’t no clout in that idiot shout. There hasn’t been an issue on there I couldn’t have sorted with a few sit-up-and-listens or keep-your-chin-ups.
I don’t care if your sister’s a slapper or you touch dogs. We can work it out; away from national TV and twice as quick.
And that Pillar promise will pass any lie detector test.

The I hate it work out is based on the notion that you attack your weakest links head on.  Invariably these are the same exercises we suck at and the body parts that are lagging behind grow in size, strength and proportion!

Here are the basic principals:

1.  Formulate your weekly  training split to BEGIN with the body part you hate most.
In doing this you mentally get the worst bit out of the way first and the rest of the week will be a breeze.  Also you will be freshest and strongest from a weekend of rest for your first workout of the week!

2. Within each body part program make a list of all your favorite and best exercises.  Now scratch them out and for the next 4-6 weeks concentrate on the exercises for that group you are the absolute worst at.  The ego killers.  Pull-ups?  Free squats?  Reduce the weight on these  (or increase the assistance) to the point where you can tackle the form to perfection and build your way up from the bottom properly.

I guarantee your muscles will be shocked into cellular and strength gains!

And then fine , you can go back to the party pump chest press machine afterwards!!!
