Real Men- Meet Jamo

Its not only the women that have to work hard to acheive their goals- men need to put in just as much effort to show results- their goals may be different than a woman- so therefor they need to train their bodies in a different way. I've had the privelege of training with Jamo Nezzar- The official trainer of Miss California USA. Now, he may not look like your average Joe on the street- but his training ethic and commitment to his work is so motivating- I needed to hear his secrets. . We took some time to chat and get back to basics- so for all men looking improve their health and fitness routines- listen up!

Jamo on the right

What would you recommend to someone just starting a fitness program- has done nothing before- where should they start?
They need to first set their goals, understand what it takes to get fit and healthy -be committed yet understand that they are doing it for one reason and that's to get healthy for themselves. Once they do this they have to learn the basics of training either by researching the best training advice or get a GOOD trainer to teach them how to workout then go from from there.

What is the best way to gain muscle mass yet lose fat at the same time?

For a man I think they should follow a bodybuilding style training to gain mass which will increase THEIR WEIGHT! While maintaining perfect form at the same time they need to clean up their diet, a diet that is slightly high in protein and carbs and low in fat. 

For the sports enthusiast, what would you suggest to someone looking to increase stamina in basketball playing or any other sport?

The best Style of training for the sport enthusiast is Core functional training, as well as interval training! 

Do you feel men and women work out differently? What needs to be done different?

Yes men and women needs to train differently. Men can go for a more bodybuilding style training while still doing core functional work. Women need to stick to core functional work with lighter weights and more emphasis on activating the muscle tissue and elongating it to give them that feminine look.

What motivates you to work out everyday?

I don't workout everyday :) I rest two days a week. what motivate me to workout is the feeling I get when Im done as well as COMMON SENSE, we were created to act and react! The day we stop moving is the day we die. If you don't workout you will shut down!
