Part 1: The Adonis Index and the Natural laws of Physical Attraction Take a second before you start reading this book and think about all the people you know who lift weights. Chances are some of them are very dedicated gym goers. They might workout three, four even five times a week. However, do any of them really have an ultimate goal that they are working towards? More importantly, do they have a plan to get there? Most likely, they are working out for one reason: to get big and to look good. Unfortunately, getting big and looking good are two very different goals. In fact, working out with the intention of “getting big” can actually prevent you from “looking good”. Many trainers have reported personally seeing guys make themselves look worse just because they haphazardly started working out and trying to “get big”. There is a specific area of research called Anthropology that involves the in‐depth examination of how people interact with one another. This research has shown us that all human beings have the ability to pick out a beautiful and attractive person. There is a true art and science to creating a perfect body and it applies specifically to how women view the male physique. This is true no matter where you are from or how old you are. An 80 year old woman from Paris will pick out the same good looking male body just as easily as a 22 year old girl from Brazil. For years anthropologists have been searching for the reason why you, I and all people find the same body attractive. What they have found is that the secret lies in mathematics. That’s right; a special


mathematical equation governs the way the human mind indentifies all beauty in the world. What is even more startling is that this same mathematical equation can be used to develop a body that women find irresistible, because it can be uniquely applied to weightlifting methodology to create the ideal masculine body. This secret mathematical principle is called the ADONIS INDEX and it is based on the mathematical equation of the GOLDEN RATIO = 1:1.618

The ADONIS INDEX was created by applying the mathematical principle of the GOLDEN RATIO to the perfect male physique. Research studying the ideal proportions for a man’s body has found that the ADONIS INDEX is the road map to the ideal male body that will attract all women and hold social power over all men. The ADONIS INDEX WORKOUT is the only workout in existence that is mathematically designed to constantly move you your body towards having the ideal ADONIS INDEX proportions. To understand the power of the mathematics behind the ADONIS INDEX and harness the hypnotic effect it can have on people, you need to understand its history.


Part 2: The History of the Golden Ratio and the Adonis Index When applied to the proportions of a man’s body, the Golden Ratio creates the Adonis Index, the exact ratio that holds the key to physical attraction, a superior male body shape, social power and ultimately a better life. The golden ratio is found both in nature and in the architecture and art created by the world’s brightest minds. In nature, the proportions of the golden ratio are found from the contours of seashells to the spirals of pineapples. Some of the most astounding architecture in the world, like the pyramids of Egypt and the Parthenon in Greece, were constructed using the proportions of the golden ratio. Michelangelo’s “David” and Leonardo da Vinci’s “Vitruvian Man” are considered amongst the most beautiful artistic representations of the human form. It should come of no surprise that they too display the perfect proportions provided by the golden ratio. The importance of the golden ratio to the human form can be further explained when we take a closer look at the dimensions of the human body. Euclid of Alexandria first wrote about the golden ratio in his book “Elements” back in 255‐265 BC. Ever since then, scientists, designers and artists have found that the golden ratio not only governs the properties of growth, but it also governs the proportions of the ideal human body.


This Diagram illustrates some of the sections of the body that are proportioned in the golden ratio. For example the distance from the top of your head to your navel is in the golden ratio to the distance from the top of your head to your fingertips. The length of each section of your finger is in golden ratio to the next section as well as your hand. You have been subconsciously looking at the golden ratio your whole life and didn’t even know it! Even human DNA is built according to the golden ratio. The cycle length of your DNA double helix is in the golden ratio to its width! Every cell of your body is filled with millions of examples of the golden ratio at work in the most perfect system of all, the human body.


Both Leonardo da Vinci and the famous architect Le Corbusier considered the ideal human body proportioned to the golden ratio. These proportions are the cues that draw us to these people. The golden ratio was used to create sculptures that defined the ideal, powerful, masculine body. Greek gods and powerful warriors were all depicted with the golden ratio. Artists went to great lengths to insure that their sculptures exemplified this ratio to perfection.

Simply put, if you were to assign a single ratio to describe nature’s ability to perfectly balance structure and function, that ratio would be 1:1.618. This ratio allows for the most efficient, effective and aesthetic growth possible. When this ratio is applied specifically to the male body, it becomes the ADONIS INDEX. These fundamental laws of nature can be used to create the ADONIS INDEX WORKOUT; the workout


that is mathematically designed to transform your body into the most attractive and powerful looking male physique possible. The ADONIS INDEX is a specific waist to shoulder ratio designed based on height, and in comparison to other circumferences of your body. It is the most important ratio for any guy who wants to develop the body that women love and that automatically commands respect from other men. It is a physical law of attraction that is undeniable. The ADONIS INDEX waist to shoulder ratio for the ideal male physique is 1.618:1, the Golden Ratio! For decades men have been trying to re‐create this ratio. This is why football players wearing shoulder pads look powerful and dominating and why business suits have built in shoulder pads. Make no mistake; the wide shouldered design of a business suit is no coincidence. Broad shoulders give off the air of dominance power and status. Research clearly illustrates the golden ratio is the secret of the natural laws of physical attraction. Women from all cultures and of all ages are attracted to men with a V‐taper (broad shoulders and a slim waist). The amazing thing is the closer your shoulder to waist ratio comes to the ADONIS INDEX, the more powerful the effect becomes1,2,4,6! The Adonis Index Workout is mathematically designed to give you the golden shoulder to waist ratio. No other style of workout including bodybuilding, power lifting, athletic training, or endurance training is


designed specifically to give you these perfect proportions. If your goal is to create a powerful body that commands respect from all men while hypnotically drawing women to you, then the Adonis Index is the only workout for you. Since the 1970’s research has shown that women are turned off by the super‐muscular build of bodybuilders5,9,10,11. Research has proven women look for a muscular body2,6, with broad shoulders1,4, a tight waist2,4 and a muscular, defined chest1,6. For those of you who are thinking that you can just bulk up your shoulders without working on your waistline, think again. Getting rid of excess fat is a key component – as women who were surveyed said that being overweight ruined the attractiveness of the male body, no matter how broad or muscular the shoulders were1. The key to the ratio’s power is the slim waist combined with broad shoulders, either one on its own is not enough. This may seem like common knowledge, but when surveyed, men typically overestimate the amount of muscle they think women will be attracted to by up to 30 lbs13! You can’t rely on your instinct here, bodybuilding type workouts might make you bigger, but the only people that are impressed by an overly bulky frame are other bodybuilders. Only the Adonis Index Workout is designed specifically to shape your body into its ideal and socially powerful form. Research shows that socially powerful changes occur for men who have an Adonis Index Score close to the golden ratio. For example, the closer your shoulder to waist ratio is to the golden ratio, the better chance you have of earning more money13 , getting more respect, invoking jealousy and envy from other men7, and sleeping with more women. Heck, you even have a better chance of sleeping with


married women3. It sounds unbelievable, but this is all substantiated with research; the Adonis Index is just that powerful. If the shoulder wasn’t such a multi functional and complex joint it would be a sure bet that guys would be getting shoulder implants just as often as women get breast implants!

Part 3: How beautiful people live – the Untold Benefits of an Ideal Body The life of privilege Physical attractiveness has a significant effect on how people judge you. Your ability to impress others with the shape of your body will affect your success in business, your sex life, friendships and all other forms of social opportunity. People subconsciously attribute positive non‐physical characteristics like intelligence, honesty and humor to physically attractive people. In short, attractive people wield more social power than less attractive people. This is why The Adonis Index Workout is designed to reshape your body into its most attractive form. By changing your body into the ideal human form, the Adonis Index Workout transforms your entire life. As you change your body, you can expect to have the benefits of all the social power that comes with being more attractive. You will live how the beautiful people live. Attractive people are also assumed to be more outgoing, more popular, and happier. This will become a self fulfilling prophecy for you as your transformation into golden proportions will bring all of these changes into your life. As you develop your new body, get ready to receive more and more attention. This becomes a snowball effect as your confidence and social power beings to soar.


How the Beautiful People Live Case 1 – Job Interview Picture the following scenario: you’ve just finished an interview for a new job, and you’ve been told it’s been narrowed down to 3 candidates, and you’re one of them. All three of you are highly qualified for the position and have the experience and credentials the employer is looking for. Now imagine that you have been following the Adonis Index Workout for the past 4 months and your shoulder to waist ratio is coming closer to the golden ratio. Now imagine one of the other candidates is a skinny guy with small weak looking shoulders and no chest to speak of. The third candidate is significantly overweight and has a huge beer gut. All other things being equal, which candidate do you think the employer is going to choose? You know exactly what the answer is. YOU! You will be the one getting the job offer. It might not be politically correct, but it’s the truth. It has been studied and we know people make judgments on attractiveness and physical beauty, so it’s about time you start capitalizing on your new attractive body. Case 2 – Night Club You’re out at a club in your town and there are 2 single girls at the bar. You’ve been following the Adonis Index Workout and nutrition programs for the past 12 weeks and you’re shoulder to waist ratio is much closer to the golden ratio than when you started. With your new shape the girls at the bar will automatically be drawn to you without you even saying a word. When they scan the room their gaze will stay on you longer than any other guy in the bar that doesn’t have a ratio as good as yours. Without


even speaking a word the girls will have already categorized you as one of the most attractive and interesting guys in the club. You also notice as you work your way over to the girls that they are standing next to a big bulky bodybuilder, he’s wearing a shirt 3 sizes too small for him and takes a direct brute force ‘look at me I’m awesome’ approach to the girls. You notice the girls are obviously turned off by his advances and they are glancing at you for a ‘rescue’. Case 3 – Beautiful Waitress at a Restaurant Picture a time when you have been out for dinner or drinks with a few friends and you were served by an exceptionally attractive waitress. Now imagine this waitress got all of the food and drink orders wrong. She served you a Pepsi when you asked for a beer, and gave you a burger when you asked for a club sandwich. Even so, all you could think about was how beautiful she was. No doubt you and your friends carried on flirting with her and probably still laid a big tip on her simply because she was attractive. Now picture the same scenario with a waitress that you didn’t find attractive at all. Chances are her tip wouldn’t be near as good as the first girl’s and you probably wouldn’t have had as much fun with her. These examples show the kinds of social power and influence that you can have with the ADONIS INDEX ratio.


Part 4: Nutrition – The Art of Eating For the Adonis Index Nutrition is a key component to moving your body closer to Adonis Index proportions. Most guys who are close to the Adonis Index eat a diet that helps them stay there. After all, once you’ve experienced the amazing effects of the Adonis Index, there’s no way you’ll want to give it up. Beer and chicken wings every night just isn’t worth giving up the power of the Adonis Index. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m a fan of the fun foods, but there has to be a limit. The fastest way to burn fat is with a good nutrition plan. Years of nutrition and metabolism research has combined to illustrate the way we need to eat in order to lose fat and move our bodies closer to Adonis Index proportions. The Adonis Index nutrition program outlines a scientifically sound nutrition program that is the perfect complement to the Workout and is essential to achieving success as quick as possible. There are 3 different Adonis Index Nutrition Programs: BURN – maximum fat burning focus BUILD & BURN – Fat burning combined with Lean muscle building BUILD –Lean muscle building focus


It doesn’t matter where you are starting from because the Adonis Index Nutrition program is designed so that it will work for you. A specific mathematical equation based on the measurements of your body determines whether your primary goal is reducing your waist or building your shoulders, upper back and chest. In the next section you will learn how to choose the workout and nutrition program that is perfect for your current body size.


Part 5: Getting Started Calculating your Waist Size and Shoulder Size

Step 1: Calculating your Waist to Height Ratio Measuring Waist Size: Use a measuring tape lined up at your belly button Use the following equation to calculate your Waist to Height Ratio

_____________________ ÷ _____________________ Current Waist Size (Inches) Height (Inches)

=

_____________________ Waist to Height Ratio

Step 2: Calculating your Current Adonis Index Score To calculate your Adonis Index Score measure the circumference of your waist across your belly button and the circumference of your shoulders about halfway between your nipples and your collarbone (across the widest part of your shoulders).

_____________________ ÷ __________________ = Shoulder Size (Inches) Waist Size (Inches)

________________________ Your Adonis Index Score

Step 3: Choosing Your Workout & Nutrition Program – Waist to Height Charts WORKOUTS On the next 3 pages you will find Waist to Height Ratio charts. Using your current Waist to Height Ratio, find your number in one of the three following charts. The Chart that you find your current score in is the Adonis Index Workout program you will use.


Take Waist measurements every 4 weeks, checking back with these 3 charts to determine if you need to change programs or continue on the same program. NUTRITION Each Adonis Index workout program Burn, Build & Burn, and Burn have 3 nutrition programs. Your height determines which program you will use no matter which workout you are doing. As you learned earlier your idea Adonis index waist is determined by your height, and your ideal muscle mass is also determined by your height. We have calculated the right amount of calories for your idea muscle mass using height. If you are 5’7 or shorter use program 1. If you are 5’8 – 6’0 use program 2. If you are 6’1 or taller use program 3.

Part 6: The ADONIS INDEX WORKOUTS The Golden Ratio and the Fibonacci Numbers Just as the golden ratio is found in the structural proportions of nature, a related series of numbers governs the healthy success of a species. This special series of numbers defines efficient growth rates in plants, animals and even people. It was the Italian mathematician, Fibonacci who discovered this sequence of numbers in the 1200’s, and this is why they are collectively called “The Finonacci sequence”. Fibonacci numbers have a special property that ties them to the golden ratio; if you divide each Fibonacci number with the numbers that comes before it in the sequence your answer always closes in on the golden ratio 1:1.618


The Fibonacci Sequence:

1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377… The Fibonacci numbers are a unique set of numbers. The sequence starts with the number 1. You get each number in the sequence by adding the previous two numbers, for example: 1+1=2…1+2=3…2+3=5…3+5=8…5+8=13…8+13=21…13+21=34…21+34=55…34+55=89… Fibonacci numbers are often called the golden sequence and are unique because they have an interesting property – as you go through the sequence and divide each Fibonacci number with the number that comes right before it you end up with a special answer: 1.618 aka: PHI (Φ) PHI is a special number and is the key to the Golden Ratio 1:1.618 2/1=2, 3/2=1.5, 5/3=1.666, 8/5=1.6, 13/8=1.625, 21/13=1.615, 34/21=1.619, 55/34=1.617, 89/55=1.618 (PHI Φ)

1.618 is also known as PHI (Φ).


Amazingly it was some of history’s best sculptures that first indentified all of the muscle groups that contribute to the ideal shoulder measurement s. The ADONIS INDEX WORKOUT uses the fibonacci numbers to ensure the proper development of your body so that you will move quickly and efficiently towards having an improved Adonis Index score. No matter which Adonis Index Workout program you use, the sets and reps are always designed using numbers from the Fibonacci sequence provide exactly 1.618 times more work to all of the muscles that contribute to your shoulder measurement. This will ensure that you develop a golden shoulder to waist ratio and your ideal Adonis Index Score in the fastest amount of time possible. The Adonis Index Workouts were designed by professional exercise scientists using the latest research in exercise physiology combined with the mathematical and natural laws of physical attraction and the same artistic rules that ancient artists used to create works of art that exemplified the perfect masculine form. Following the Fibonacci numbers through each phase of the workouts naturally leads to muscle growth, shape and definition. Each workout is designed to constantly move your body towards your Adonis Index Ratio ideal score…the golden ratio 1:1.618.


Part 7: Choosing the Right Weight: It’s all about Feel The sets, reps and rest you use in a workout are what determine how much weight you will use. This requires a bit of trial and error. After your first few workouts you will know exactly how much weight to use during your 21 rep sets compared to your 8 or 5 rep sets. The same exercise will feel very different simply by changing the amount of rest and the number of repetitions you do. Through my experience from training with world class athletes I know what reps and sets should ‘feel’ like. This feeling is your best indicator that you are using the right amount of weight. I’ve included an explanation of the feeling you should experience for each of the different rep ranges.

Once you know how each set should feel you’ll have a better idea of how to choose your weight. You can obviously do 5,8 or 13 reps with a weight that you can do 21 reps with. The trick is knowing how to choose the right weight for a 5 rep set compared to the 8,13, and 21 rep set. This is a key factor in maximizing the effectiveness of your workouts.

21 reps Light weights you can handle in good form up to the 21st rep. These sets should be a gradual increasing burn feeling. The first 13‐15 reps should be a constant flow gradually becoming more difficult. Past the 13th – 15th rep you will experience a noticeable increasing ‘burn’ in your muscles.

13 reps


Moderate weights you can handle in good form up to the 13th rep. If you can do a 14th and 15th rep in good form then the weight is too light. Choose a weight that becomes much more challenging at the 11th rep and requires more concentration to finish the 12th and 13th rep in good form. You should notice the ‘burn’ feeling around the 8th‐9th rep.

8 reps Heavy weights you can handle in good form up to the 8th rep. If you can do a 9th and 10th rep in good form then the weight is too light. The proper weight should become very challenging by the 6th or 7th rep, the 8th rep should feel like the last you can do in proper form. All 8 reps should be challenging although you will not feel as much of a burn during these sets as your 13 rep sets. The muscular effort to move this type of weight does not produce the same ‘burn’ as high rep sets. The end of an 8 rep set should feel more like an overall muscular exhaustion.

5 reps Maximum weights, all 5 reps will feel challenging to complete in good form. These sets require maximum concentration from the first to the last rep. You will most likely not experience any ‘burn’ sensation during your 5 rep sets. Longer rest periods during the 5 rep sets allow you to use heavy weights for each set. Complete each set in good form. It is ok if you find you cannot use the same weight from set to set. Adjust the weight down so you can complete 5 reps on each set. Do not take a longer rest period to handle heavier weights. Also do not speed the rest period up as this will cause you to use lighter weights than required. Take the full 120 seconds rest and only use weights you can manage while sticking to this rest and rep range.
