Yesterday, we talked about Phase 2 in Metabolic Surge. Today, we tackle the last phase.

Metabolic Surge Rundown: Phase 3

The first few days of Phase 3 are all about building muscle (what better way to reduce your % bodyfat by increasing your % muscle mass!). When you come directly off a low-carb diet, your body is desperate for carbs and very sensitive to them. Your body will absorb them (as well as other nutrients) very rapidly.

This is also where the zero-protein day comes into play. You have also created a desperate need for protein in your body with it.

By combining these two desperate needs and then feeding them, your body is capable of tremendously fast progress. This is when you will be performing "Cluster Training" or "Time/Volume Training" – two of the most effective muscle-building training techniques I've ever worked with.

During these first few days, you will be loading up on nutrients such as protein, glutamine and creatine to maximize the effects of the previous two phases.

You will also be keeping your fat intake extremely low to maximize fat burning during this time.

The third day of the phase is a day off weights but has you doing high intensity interval training for your cardio. Doing this type of training on its own day means you can really put a lot of effort into it.

The fourth day is geared towards higher-volume, higher-rep training using supersets. This type of training is excellent for forcing a lot of nutrient-laden blood into the muscles. The supersets will also create plenty of lactic acid, which is excellent for boosting growth hormone levels in the body. You will also be doing interval training on this day again.

The final day of this Phase is a complete day off. Your body will need a little rest before you go back into the low-carb diet and training of Phase 1 again. You may be tempted to do a little more work – resist this as your body will need the rest!

On this day, you get a planned "cheat" meal…by planning it into your program, you get the mental benefits of breaking the strictness of a "diet" and your metabolism gets a nice shot. This planned cheating is a VERY powerful concept, as is the whole nutrient-rotation found in the Surge program itself.

Then Repeat Two More Times…

This 12 day cycle makes for one round of the program. In the NEXT 2 rounds, you're going to be increasing the number of sets you do, gradually building up the training volume, which forces your body to work harder to keep up. This is a natural metabolism-increaser and it's PLANNED right into the program.

Think of how the engine of a car reacts as you hit the gas to climb a hill…as the hill gets steeper, you have to almost floor it just to keep moving. But when you keep it floored and come up and over the top and down the other side, you pick up speed FAST.

This is the core concept of the Surge training program – you ramp things up then back off and let your metabolism ROAR.

Next up: Strength & Recovery.

If you're convinced that this is the best muscle-building and body fat-burning program around (it is), then pick up a copy of Metabolic Surge today. It's on sale through tonight Midnight CST. Nick is throwing in 4 bonus books, too, for free ($110 value).
