5 things that may be holding you back from reaching your full potential

Thread 👇
1. You're aren't pursuing the goals you have in mind

If your actions don't align with your goals, you will go nowhere.

In order to grow and improve, you must DO things that move you towards what you are aiming for.

Sounds easy, but put in to practice, it is very hard for many.
2. You have a self-entitlement attitude

This is unfortunately one of the worst things of (my) generation.

You think the world owes you.

Newsflash: It doesn't owe you shit.

Get out there, work your ass off, and you will become all that you dream of.
3. Procrastination

This is self explanatory.

It may seem like we have a lot of time... but we really don't.

Time FLIES.

Stop waiting, start doing.

The faster you start, the faster you reach your potential.

Simple.
4. You view mistakes as failures

Rather than think of mistakes as failures, switch your attitude to them being LESSONS.

I failed at my first 3 businesses...

But you know what?

I kept a high attitude, learned from my actions, and here I am on my FIFTH business going on 24.
5. You give up before you see results

As with ANYTHING worth doing, it takes TIME.

You can't expect to workout once and be ripped.
You can't expect to cook once and be a chef.
You can't expect to read a book and become a professional.

Practice, stick with, and you WILL achieve

8 tips & tricks to help you adapt to intermittent fasting

Thread 👇
1. Realize that you aren’t going to adapt over night!

It takes time for your body to adjust to something new

If you feel lighted headed or can’t take the hunger at first, eat!

The goal here isn’t to have you pass out...

It’s to start small and work your way to longer fasts.
2. Strategically blunt your hunger

Drinking things like black coffee, black tea’s, sparkling water, or 0 cal drinks will help (keep 0 cal drinks to a minimum though)

I highly recommend you use one of these to help blunt hunger.

It’s VERY helpful.

I use black coffee everyday.

“THE BIG 6” movements you should have in your workout programming

Thread 👇
1. Horizontal push (e.g. bench press)

These movements work your chest primarily, triceps & delts as secondary

You can do any variation (incline, decline) of bench press to target your entire pectoral muscles

Use proper form and leave the ego at at the door on this exercise
2. Vertical push (e.g. overhead press)

Vertical push movements should be a staple in your routine.

Having strong shoulders makes life a heck of a lot easier + your shoulders can make or break your entire physique!

Prioritize the vertical push.

7 reasons why you should consider intermittent fasting

Thread 👇
1. It is easy to practice

Unlike diets, intermittent fasting doesn’t require you to only eat certain foods.

Rather, it’s timed eating & you simply eat within a small time frame.

4-8 hour eating window is typical.

Shorter eating window = fewer calories consumed.
2. It saves so much time

With 20:4, 18:6, 16:8...

You will likely only eat 2 meals per day instead of 3.

The shorter your eating window, the more time saved not worrying about food.

More time to read a book, spend time with the wife and kids, or go learn a new skill.

DAY 1 OF 90

I will reply to this post once per day for 90 days as I go from 192 👉 175

You will witness my daily wins, losses, struggles, & anything in between

Watch & learn (feel free to join @TheGreat_Life & I...)

Shred thread 👇 ImageImageImage
DAY 2 OF 90

2400 daily calories
189g protein/day
5-10k steps/day

188.9lbs this morning

-3.1lbs already

This is NOT all body fat!

This weight loss is a combination of depleted muscle glycogen, less water weight, and a tiny fraction of fat.

Let’s see what happens tomorrow🤔 ImageImageImage
DAY 3 OF 90

Stayed within calories, hit protein goal, smashed steps yesterday

Back up to 190lbs this morning

Weight loss will NEVER be a straight line

Fluctuations WILL occur

Interesting enough... I see some pretty big changes already for very little change in body weight! ImageImageImage

WHICH SUPPLEMENTS SHOULD YOU TAKE?

A question I get all the time.

So here's a list of some I’ve found useful over the years.

~Thread~
Let's first establish that 99% of supplements are trash & a waste of money.

+ sups are a waste if your training & nutrition aren't on point.

Most are gimmicks targeted towards naive people.

E.g. “Lose 10lbs in 7 days with this pill”

So.. here’s some actually beneficial ones👇
1. Whey protein

If you struggle with hitting your protein goal everyday, I suggest taking 1-2 scoops of whey protein.

It's NOT a protein meal replacement, its simply to help increase your protein intake when you struggle to eat enough.

I take 1-2 scoops most days. Works great
