The more you consume, the faster you'll recover and the more muscle you'll be able to build.
Aim for 0.8-1.2g per pound of bodyweight.
3.) Resistance Training 3-4x/week
Simply a non-negotiable.
You'll never build significant muscle mass without challenging your muscles consistently.
- 6-12 rep range
- 2-3 sets per exercise
- Taking each set within a rep of failure
- Shoot for more weight or reps than you did the previous session
Here's the 3 lifting days you should alternate:
4.) Surround Workouts with Carbs
You'll be stronger with carbs than you'd be without.
If you want to maximize workout performance, make sure you eat something before you lift.
5.) Protect Your Sleep with Your Life
If there was a natural, superhuman potion you could take without any side effects...
It would be sleep.
Your muscle is built while you sleep.
But it also yields:
- More energy
- Mental clarity
- More endurance
- Less stress
- Improved libido
- Faster recovery
- And pretty much any other benefit you could think of.
Here's the bulletproof sleep protocol I use for 8hrs of DEEP sleep:
6.) Make Meals Effortless
Diet is the hardest part of any fitness routine.
So I choose to.... Make it easy.
Fast food options & grocery hacks make it easy to hit your macro goals.
Here are some of my favorite fast food and grocery hacks:
7.) Develop Unshakeable Self-Belief
Believing "this is possible" is the root of all success.
- Quit all the negative self-talk
- Surround yourself with positive people
- And focus on progress, not perfection
Anyone can do this.

Want to lose your belly fat?
Do this for 8 weeks to get a flatter stomach:
1.) Calorie deficit
The golden rule of fat-loss.
No matter how hard you workout..
No matter how many workouts you do each week..
If you're not in a deficit, you won't lose an OUNCE of fat.
Do this ONCE:
- Google a "TDEE Calculator"
- Enter your age, weight, height, and activity levels
- Hit submit to get your TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure)
- Subtract 500-1,000 from this number^
The new number you get becomes your MAXIMUM DAILY CALORIES.
Everything I’ve learned from the fitness industry in the past 9 years:
(Bookmark this to Become Unrecognizable)
1. Cut out alcohol completely. It's a nightmare for gut health, cognitive function, sleep, recovery, fat loss, and muscle building.
2. Get sunlight as often as possible. Studies show daily exposure can boost Testosterone by 69% 3. If you have an office job, do "dead hangs" each workout to decompress and alleviate back pain
4. It is physically, mathematically, biologically, and scientifically IMPOSSIBLE to be in a caloric deficit and NOT lose weight. 5. Potatoes, chicken, steak, greek yogurt, fruit, veggies, & seafood should be 85% of what you eat. You'll unf*ck your body composition on this alone
