Manliness Mondays - James Bond's Swim Suit

I like Daniel Craig as James Bond. He creates a more gritty Bond. A more manly Bond. The kind that breaks through unfinished sheet rock and performs parkour at construction sites. And he looks awesome in this swim suit.

It's not gay (no, it's not)! It's an observation. He looks awesome and I want to look awesome, so I did the only reasonable thing and started looking for a pair of similar style. I found them in a haughty-looking shop in Italy. Check them out!

It's okay to be jealous, I know they're completely awesome. Now I need the body type to appropriately fit the swim trunks. I don't look close enough to Daniel Craig to confidently use the trunks yet, but that doesn't mean I'm not going to try. That's where Timothy Ferriss and The Four Hour Body comes into play.

I started the 4HB total body makeover last month and have had great success. Before 4HB, I was spending hours in the gym. I'd wake up in the morning for a treadmill workout then hit the gym in the afternoon with either weight lifting or MMA training at Conan's Academy but the fat wasn't going anywhere. I was confused because this type of rigorous training had worked in the past and had seemed to plateau.

So I got the 4HB text and audio and started taking notes on my laptop as to what practices seemed tangible to my life style and have lost near 18 pounds of body fat! I take progressive self snap shots in the mirror to range how I stack up to the above mentioned 007 but probably won't publish those online anytime soon!

I feel better because my energy has increased, I have more time to accomplish other endeavors because I'm not in the gym and my MMA training has slowly begun to improve because I'm lighter and not so sore from daily weight lifting.

The next major step I plan to implement is a kettle bell routine. I'll let you know when I've hit 160!
