Fresh Perspective on Purposefully Primitive tactics

My friend Rehan Jalali is a Purposefully Primitive proponent who, like Pavel, espouses old school tactics despite being a very young guy. Likely this comes from his having been a successful competitive bodybuilder. There comes a certain seasoned wisdom with having successfully renovated your physique, regardless of age, and this gives insight into the process otherwise unobtainable.
The process of physical renovation is damned difficult and the procedures used are burned into a persons very being after the battle is fought and won. Once you have reconfigured The Flesh Machine (William Boroughs phrase) you know what works and what doesnt. Now not every great player makes a great coach; sometimes the transformee is so genetically gifted that the struggle is less than Herculean and this does not imprint the degree of deep understanding that those less gifted (who eventually overcome) absorb into the marrow of their being.
Others are knowledgeable but inarticulate; unable to communicate the pathway to those seeking to follow. Others are so eaten up with the cancer of commercialism that it warps every word they utter and in order to reach the preordained conclusion that their product is indispensable for reaching the goal the message becomes tainted and distorted and ultimately worthless.
The best teachers balance real world empirical knowledge, only gained in the trenches of transformation, with abstract theoretical philosophy that allows them to be flexible and fluid and willing to incorporate new ideas and tactics. Too many physical transformation teachers are frozen in their thinking, fossilized to a degree that prevents them for considering, much less incorporating new ideas. They become prophets and religious leaders of their particular brand or version of the transformative truth and devolve into a cult that worships one particular version of the truth to the exclusion of all others. These cult leaders spew fire and brimstone and believe non-believers are heretics that should be burned at the figurative stake.
Rehan has created a great new book: The Six-Pack Diet Plan is a comprehensive approach to lowering body fat and as readers of this website know, the secret to possessing a defined waistline is to reduce overall body fat percentile downward, thereby exposing those abdominal muscles that we all already have. This book is highly recommended because it covers every base; hard science is blended with empirical gym knowledge to produce a commonsense approach that is applicable, practical and realistic.
The science alone stated in delightful plain speak is worth the price of admission. Check out these topicshow the body burns fat, fat as fuel, the importance of brown fat, the thermic effect of fuel, the hormone link, testosterone and estrogen, thyroid hormones, insulin, the cortisol factor, unhealthy effects of cortisol. The six-pack eating plan is laid out in amazing detail, fat loss supplements are discussed, hormone-modifying strategies gone into and a Purposefully Primitive-style training regimen is discussed that would warm the heart of Iron Icon Bill Pearl.
Rehan outlines an all encompassing game plan that is like old home week for Purposeful Primitive readers of this website. His flavoring is distinctly his own but his core methodology is Old School updated to 2005 with no commercial compromise. He never softballs or dilutes of the hardcore reality of the transformative struggle. We will be excerpting this marvelous book starting in a week or two so that our readers can gain additional insight and perspective into how to trigger transformation. Keep your eyes peeled.
