"I create a calorie deficit to lose fat
I eat meat
I eat ~300g carbs/d while losing fat using our app @carbondietcoach
I eat dairy
I eat fruit
I eat vegetables
I eat sugar
I don’t use PEDs
I train hard & monitor my nutrition consistently but know it doesn’t have to be perfect
I am healthy & strong by any measure (bloodwork, yearly physical, & full body MRI testing.
I enjoy the process
I used to hate it when I was young
I was scared of ‘unclean’ foods
I thought carbs made you fat
I thought if I wasn’t perfect with diet & training then it was worthless
Here are my tips
1) consistency > perfection
2) energy balance is king
3) building a strong & impressive physique drug free takes a long time
4) Hacks are for people who are either scammers, impatient, ignorant, or lazy
5) Train hard & consistently for >10 yrs & you’ll be amazed
6) The amount of energy you spend stressing over the little shit actually hurts you more from stress than it would if you got the little shit completely wrong (meal timing, carb/fat ratio, supplements, fasting window, etc)
Focus on the important shit and be consistent. Stop majoring in the minors. “The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding” (saw this quote from @rpstrength"- Dr. Layne Norton

#6 having the word "shit" in it and the last paragraph I thought sounded odd for you since I'm the one with the foul mouth- but otherwise it was spot on.

Clearly I don't really know him, Princess, but I did think it was unusual for him to use that word! 😁

Haha, I thought the veggies part may give it away DP, I mean I eat them but not as often as I should. Mostly fruit. Lol, sure am Melissa, bodybuilder/people who wanted to get lean were all the same when I started. Believed all the same myths that magazines would help proliferate. Glad that is all behind me!

Ugh, tired of complainers. A couple new guys on my shift, one super-analyzes calls and beats himself up if he didn't do everything perfectly and the other is constantly complaining that he didn't get enough sleep and telling me how tired he is. Done with you people, lol! Life is good and easy. Stahp
