The simplest nutrition strategy I know

That has helped many of my clients lose +30lbs

I call it 3-2-1-0 Image
3: Eat 3 protein dominant meals every day.

No more. No less.

What's protein dominant mean?

1-2 PALM SIZED portions of protein.

This ensures the meals you are eating will be FILLING. The goal is to not have to snack throughout the day.
2: Drink 2 glasses of water around each meal

This not only helps keep you hydrated throughout the day but it also can help with overeating.

I recommend drinking one a few minutes before you sit down for your meal, then have one during/after
1: Each meal has 1 serving of a fruit or vegetable

1 serving = 1 fist

Fruits and veggies are not only nutrient rich, but also high volume foods

Meaning they take up space in your stomach without many calories.

Bonus: choose ones that are high in fiber!
0: No alcohol (or no alcohol outside of special occasions)

This is quite simple. Consistent alcohol consumption makes weight loss signficantly harder

Remove or restrict it and many will see the process get much easier.
Coming up with unique nutrition strategies like this one way I ensure my clients reach their weight loss goals!

If you're looking to lose +20lbs in the next 3 months - July 6th I kick off my Build Through Busy special

If come October you want to feel confident with your shirt off...happy with how you look...and loving how you feel...

This is for you!

Tired of having a skinny pack or flabby midsection?

Want BRICKS for abs?

Here are 7 things you need to do👇🏻
1) Get your diet in check

You can build thick abs in the gym, but unless you're at a low enough body fat % you'll never see them.

Tips for weight loss:
- Make 50% of your plate protein
- Eat high satiety carbs (i.e. high in fiber)
- Walk +10k steps
- Drink LOTS of water
Tips for weight gain:
-- don't turn into a slob

- Eat in a slight surplus (300-500 cal) of QUALITY foods
- 1g/lb bodyweight of protein
- Eat a LOT of carbs (especially around your training)

*If you're gaining more than 2-4lbs a month, you're likely in too big of a surplus*

My dad got me into fitness at a young age

Now working out is one of our favorite ways to spend time together

For all the fathers out there...here's how he did it

(Thread)
Before I start, I'd like to preface by saying I am not a father

I write this thread from the POV of a son who's dad prioritized fitness and passed that love onto me

With the hopes that it helps a Dad connect with his son/daughter through fitness
I grew up watching my dad get workouts in whenever he had the time

- 4am before work
- 12pm on his lunch break
- 6pm after work

It didn't matter what he had going on in life, he found a way to get it in

The blueprint to building a bulletproof back

-Thread- Image
Before we dive into how you should be training your back

I want to explain why you should be obsessed with back training

It is arguably the most important muscle group we train
First...many people today suffer from what is known as "upper- crossed syndrome"

It is a byproduct of our lifestyle (sitting at desks, driving, etc.)

Tightness in our chest & weakness in our lats/serratus/lower traps/rhomboids cause our shoulders to hunch over Image
