Day 401: Breaking News...Can You Digg It?

G'day Shredders,

The clock is ticking on my contest video submission for the 66 Seconds Video Contest. My video has been placed into the "Compelling Category" and the winning video will be determined by the amount of "Diggs" it gets over the next 24 hours.

How To Vote:

If you feel that this video (shown below) is worthy of your vote you can Digg the video at this link:

http://digg.com/health/Amazing_Body_Transformation



N.B. If you do not currently have a Digg account you can sign up for free while you are at Digg. It only takes a few minutes.

Digg Vote Status:

2:00 PM - At the moment I am trailing the leader by a few votes so I think it will go down to the wire...every vote counts!

7:30 PM - Thank you Shredders, I am now only one Digg behind the leader. This really will go down to the wire...

12:00 PM - Thank you again to everyone who has voted. I currently have my nose in front. However, every vote is still critical as I have a feeling this is still wide open. Ooohhh man, I gotta get some sleep now! Tomorrow is a big training day, a double session.

12:30 PM (Day 402) - I have a feeling I'm gonna get pipped at the post by the puppet snowman. I'm one Digg in front and he is gaining rapidly. Well, it was fun while it lasted! Now back to the gym...

The "Compelling Category" Leaderboard

My video (as well as the other videos in the Compelling Category) can be seen at this link:

Also, if I do happen to win the "Compelling Category" you can bet that the accountability factor is gonna go through the roof for all of us as this video, this blog and the Shredder Council & ShredderSphere will be seen by a lot of people.

As I have touched on previously: More Blog Traffic = More Accountability

I gotta go to the gym now, I'll be back later today with some big improvements to the ShredderSphere and a new video.

*Day 401: PM Update

Hello again Shredders,

What a day! Its pretty hectic over here today with the online vote. I'd like to say thank to everyone who has voted. This feels like Day 136 deja'vu!

ShredderSphere Is Off To A Flyer!

Day 1 of the ShredderSphere is off to a flying start with all members making an entry on their Daily Accountability Blog.

It's great to see, I have a very strong feeling that this new accountability structure will result in a lot of head-turning physique transformations as measured by our own self-imposed deadlines and goals.

I'd Like Your Opinion On The ShredderSphere Layout

I am still working on a new layout for the ShredderSphere, but before I go any further I would like your opinion. Do you prefer the blog screenshot style or would text links (like in the original Group Shred) work better? Or a combination of both?

Just drop me a note in today's comment section and I'll have it ready by tomorrow depending on what the majority decision is.

New Video...By Lilla!

As I promised earlier today I have a new video for you...by Lilla! That's right our Shredder Council Certified Shredder has discovered a secret audition video tape for American Idol I did way back in the day!

While Simon didn't like my performance too much the "Guest Judge" seemed to like it!



Thank you Lilla, that was so cool!
















Shredder Pact:


We will focus on the single daily actions that produce results.

We will "burn our bridges" and not look back.

We will never surrender.

Until tomorrow...

Eat Clean,
Shred Hard,
Think BIG!

Cheers,
Adam Waters, NESTA-CPT

P.S. I'll have a new video tomorrow Shredders where I'll reveal a secret of my own! This one is big (but maybe not as big as Lilla's discovery!).

P.S.S. I'd also like to welcome Suzette, Founding Member of the Shredder Council into the ShredderSphere. I misunderstood Suzette's comment in Day 397. Sorry Suzette, shred hard and I look forward to catching up with you at the East Coast Shredder Summit!

P.S.S.S. Below are my Day 401 RTP Blog Daily pictures for December 14, 2007: Mission 4 - Day 26 of 125.





P.S.S.S. This video explains the deja'vu feeling I am having today, and its not over yet!

M2 Judgement Day
- The Six-Pack Verdict


94 Responses from 22 Countries over 12 hours to my public vote on my blog as to whether my midsection qualified as a six-pack. At stake is my $1500 pre-paid "redemption trip" to Phuket. The following takes place on March 24, 2007. Events occur in real-time.

*Warning: This video is very intense!

Day 400: M4 And The ShredderSphere Kicks Into Top Gear

G'day Shredders,

Wow! What a way to bring in Day 400!

I've spent the last 8 hours updating the graphics on this blog to reflect the importance of two massive events that kick off today.

1) M4/NYC Countdown: 100 Days Until Training Day

This is big! Training with Tom Venuto, (and a "mystery guest") the king of natural bodybuilding and fat loss on Day 500 will be a dream come true.

The pressure is real and trust me, I have a lot of work to do in the next 100 days if I am to "stack up" in Tom's gym in New Jersey. Tom is from the "old school" and he takes no prisoners when he trains.

Tom has already told me I'll be be getting a dose of the most hardcore exercise machine known to man, the Quad Blaster! You gotta see it to believe it.

However, after going through this physique transformation process 3 times in the last year I am extremely confident in my ability to crack a genuine six-pack and get in the best shape of my life by Day 500.

If I didn't think I could handle it, there is no way I would even attempt something like this. Put it this way, I would not have set this goal for Mission 1, 2 or 3! But now is time to finally take my mind, body and life to the next level.

To do this I will practice what I preach on a daily basis for the next 100 days with absolute laser precision. I know full well what is at stake, and I will not let anything stand in my way.

The clock is ticking...time to make every minute, of every hour, of every day count!

N.B. This post will be updated tomorrow to include the full spectrum of M4.

2) The ShredderSphere Kicks Off: Daily Accountability Shredders

The ShredderSphere consists of Shredder Council Members and Resident Shredders who decided together to take it up a gear and practice real-time picture accountability on a daily basis via their blogs.

Every Shredder below has their own goals, motivation and reasons for going on this real-time shred mission. Go to their blogs to learn more about these brave people who taken a public stand and made a conscious decision to transform their mind, body and life.

I will do my absolute best to increase the "positive pressure" on you guys to ensure that you stay true to your word and follow through on the pre-determined goals you have outlined on your blogs.

Put simply, you have publicly stated your intention...there is no turning back now.

P.S. Trust me, this is only the beginning...

P.S.S. Many Shredders have decided to do a 100-Day Shred Mission. If this is you then I have video below I'd like you to watch. Below is my real-time account of the first 100 days of my RTP Shred. (Please forgive the pink pants!)
