So why am I writing about breast augmentation, besides the obvious fact I like breasts? I read a lot of diverse publications, and when I came across this topic in an issue of Plastic Surgery Practice, I thought it was an interesting topic many in the fitness/bodybuilding arena might also find interesting and potentially useful….Sounds like science fiction, or at the very least, some future way of increasing breast size, but it’s not. It’s a technology being used now in fact. No more implants, but your own real tissue.
I’m sure most reading this recall some years ago talk about transferring fat from one place – such as the hips, stomach, etc - to the breasts as the next big thing in breast augmentation (BA) procedures, but then the idea seemed to drop off. It was another one of those ideas that sounded great “on paper” but didn’t pan out so well. Due to the way the fat was harvested, 50% or more of the fat tissue transferred died, and was simply reabsorbed. It often left lumpy spots, and possibility of calcifications was another possible side effect. Thus, why it was a short lived idea, but that does not mean it went away… Click Here To Continue Reading
I don’t usually write about a specific bodypart, but I was inspired to by the recent development of companies selling booty building sneakers claiming to “help make your legs and butt look great…” The Reebok “EasyTone” sneaker probably being the best known, but there are others. The Reebok version claiming to be based on “balance ball technology” and “tones your butt up to 28% more just by walking.” I’m sure many of you have seen the commercial, but if not, here it is:

A while back, I wrote an article entitled “So You Wanna Be A Fitness Model?” which covered more of the marketing and networking for those who aspire as figure and Fitness Models. The article covered in depth how to “make it” as a Fitness Model.
Since writing that article, I have had several well-known IFBB pros tell me they wished they had had such a guide when they were starting out, so if you have not read it, I suggest you do! I think this video is a nice compliment to that guide as it covers the general requirements on the competing side. No, it will not give any new info to the seasoned competitors, but for the newbie and those considering competing, it gives some good general guidelines on what the successful Fitness model has on stage.
As I had mentioned in a prior post, I put together a one day workshop called “Functional Fitness For The Female Athlete.” Here’s the vid for the first annual event held 9/26/09 and put on by yours truly and coach John “Sully” Sullivan at Excel Sports and Fitness in Waltham MA. The day was broken down into four circuits, with 3-4 exercises per circuit. Depending on rest periods, loads, and other variables, some circuits stressed less intensity/aerobic capacity, while others stressed higher intensity/power or endurance. The day was designed to give a spectrum of intensities and “functional” experiences.

People that follow my stuff know I generally write about nutrition, supplements, training, and other topics that are more science based than subjective topics, such as what is covered in this article. I decided to shuck my science geek persona, and write on a topic I know will be helpful to thousands of would be and wanna be fitness models.
As well a known “hard core” science based no BS writer, why I am writing what some will perceive as a “fluff” article? Over the years I have gotten hundreds, perhaps thousands, of gals that ask me via email, letters, or in person “how do I become a fitness model Will? You have been in the business a long time, surly you of all people should know.” I get this from newbies and I get this from women that have been at it a while but have been unable to “break in” effectively.
