Massimo Giusto is not a name you will have heard of. He is not famous in his family or professional life. Yet recently he achieved something that so many of us talk about doing but never do. Giusto gave himself the challenge of getting in the best shape of his life. At the age of 39 and within 4 months, he did it. Giusto lost over 20 pounds and now has a 6 pack to be proud of.
Giusto’s story begins like many of ours. He is a hard worker with a busy family life. He goes to the gym regularly but has always been a little heavy. He is very honest about his lifestyle pre-transformation. He ate lots of carbs, lots of sugars and lots of bad food. He was a smoker too. At one point in his life, he weighed over 200 pounds.
Then one day, he had enough. As he was watching his children grow up he wanted to set a better example for them, he wanted to look the best he could for his wife too. He set himself the challenge of achieving the best body he could. He still had many work commitments having to fly for business every month but he didn’t let it get in the way.
He sought the help of a personal trainer 4 times a week and had a rigorous workout regime. However, it was in the kitchen where he made the biggest changes. He adopted a low carb high protein diet. Only allowing himself 1800 calories every day. While it was tough, he believed in the reasons driving him. After only 6 weeks he started to see results and within a few months, he noticed his 6 pack appearing.
Giusto says he feels unstoppable now and is looking for his next challenge in life. After quitting smoking, embracing the gym and dominating in the kitchen, anything is possible.
