I was curious how many people are actually following any form of the workout from Simon Waterson be it from the GQ article, Simon's book or paid workout.
I have had a few members contact me via PM about it.
I started two weeks ago. I have lost about 4 pounds and have dropped 5% body fat.
I have not gotten bigger but stronger and more defined.
The hardest part is keepng with the food regimen. Though he says it's ok, I have not had a beer in 12 days.{[]
The proof will be when it's time to wear the La Perla Trunks.;)

C'mon lads, help me out. ANY help will be greatly appreciated.
Are you wanting to loose fat, bulk up in mass, become more defined, or all three in that order? Depending where you are and what you are prepared to do, these are questions you need to ask yourself first, along with considering what you diet is like. (I am making assumptions here, but here is what I advise:
1) Find a local gym where you like the atmosphere. Speak to one of the trainers and explain what you want to achieve. - Check with your doctor too.
2) Do some research. (Ask the trainer for proper books as website and magazines can be confusing and contradictory, and won't be specific to what you need yourself!)
3) Monitor your diet. I know, boring but its a fact! Little things like not skipping breakfast, drinking lots of water and eating smaller meals more often rather than three large ones can make a difference, as well as the more obvious things. (Depending on your dietry needs of course.)
4)Be patient. Getting in good shape won't happen overnight! Don't set short deadlines for yourself, think long term. That may seem discouraging, but I am proof myself that it works. I lost 4 stone of fat in 5 months, and am not doing too badly in building muscle. If you can get a kick out of getting in shape, you can find that the doing is more enjoyable than the getting there. Take a few snapshots of yourself as you are, and in time do so again. If you stick with the gym you may be surprised!
I hope this is of some help, and Good luck.
Stone is a unit of weight we still cling to in the UK - just as we cling to everything nostalgic - though I only ever hear of it in reference to personal weight.
In use, an American might say someone weighs 161 lbs, where we would say 11 and-a-half stone.
We're all supposed to be moving over to the metric system of kg, but every set of scales we buy is still marked in st/lbs and kg.
My advice is to eat really well for a week at least, ideally a month. By that I mean raw carrots, broccoli, tomatoes, don't bother cooking it as it's too much hassle and might take the goodness out. Too many people go on a diet after eating junk food that's left them too weak to sustain it. So see you've got all your vitamins in your diet to nourish your body first.
The Atkins. Not really healthy, but if you eat just protein and salad for a few days you can bust your cravings eg sugar or alchohol or caffeine. I've found this worked for me. Protein tricks the brain into thinking your stomach is full whereas carbs encourage you to eat more.
Have some kind of salady lunch rather than a sandwich. Give up bread. Tuna and lettuce is good.
You MUST get your metabolism up when on a diet, or it just won't shift. Go on running machine for 20 mins if you can, and swim after. In the morning is best as the Craig workout suggests. Do this three times a week. A sauna can get your heart rate up, too.
Your stomach will contract in time, so you'll need less to eat to feel full.

That's a very sweeping statement. Could you back it up with a few reasons and evidence rather than throwing out a comment with nothing to support it.
Actually, it makes it worse, I never trust Booties as you all nick my shiny things
Wouldn't dream of it, although Andrew was where my roots lay, and have spread to in civvy street ala Reservist duty, I spent most of my time with Booties and affiliated people over were the Troubles lay, down South. My best mate is ex-Booty ( and so are the majority of my close friends), and I trained many a noddy in Devon and then Poole in small arms from the experience and training I received when on tour. Great fun, although the celebratory **** ups wearing a dress never did much for me (must be a Bootneck thing). Still keep my hand in with small arms and have spent many hours training 23. Things are not what they were though, shame.
Keep well, and remember, If it moves salute it, if it doesn't, paint it, and if it isn't bolted down requisition it, and if it is, unbolt it
