Have you tried the "quit eating the shitty food diet"? It's this great nutrition plan that actually works wonders. Quality of your food absolutely matters.

In today’s society it’s all about the most convenient foods, aka drive thrus and pre-packaged meals, and people sacrifice quality because they are just lazy.

As I've said before it's about developing habits that just evolve to become your lifestyle which means you don't really think about it as it becomes automatic. If you invest in quality food sources this will give you the greatest return in LONG-TERM progress.

It boggles my mind when I get coaching inquiries and they want all these results yet make the excuse they don't have the time to prepare meals, and yes that is an excuse no matter how you try and spin it.

Whether you are a Physique competitor or just part of the general population start investing in your food if you want a much bigger return. ... See MoreSee Less

Take a Vacation to stay Healthy physically and mentally!

For many its very common to rarely, if ever, take a real vacation an step away completely from work and unplug. I was very guilty of this in the past. Being a coach for the last 20 years its not a typical 9-5, Monday through Friday job. Its very easy to get caught up in work and the hustle to improve your career and build your business whatever that may be.

But before you go another year without an official vacation, either because of your hectic schedule, consider the following: A growing body of literature across the fields of medicine, psychology, and management has confirmed what your body internally already know. Working without a real break can take a serious toll on one’s mental and physical health. To put the importance of vacation in perspective, here’s just a few things that can happen when you never take a break.

Research has shown the risk of coronary heart risk increased by 80% and was likely related partly due to long exposure to psychological stress.

Another long term research showed that people who worked more than 11 hours a day were more than twice as likely than those who worked 8 hours a day to have a major depression episode, even in those without previous mental health issues.

The threat of these health risks and the mental effects are real as I've seen them with numerous clients, especially the CEOs , lawyers, and coaches who never take a break. I actually prescribe time off through the year for all clients because they wouldn't take it otherwise.

Now don't mistake this as you shouldn't work hard because to build a successful business it takes some sacrifice and long days, but there comes a point where you have to start stepping away and giving yourself a break during the year to keep the fire burning and continue to be productive and successful. ...

How should you eat on Vacation?

Lets talk about stress and vacation or any special event whether it be a bday, anniversary, etc.... Soo many freak out or have anxiety about eating off plan at a few meals during a vacation not realizing that all the perceived stress they are putting their body through is actually what can cause weight/fat gain NOT the few enjoyable meals.

If you are Chronically stressing out during your vacation (when you should be relaxed) it screws up insulin, cortisol, down regulates digestion and immune systems. Most don’t address this issue and just keep focusing on obsessing about nutrition and training.

So what do you do during vacation to make sure you don't cause issues?? CHILL the hell out and truly enjoy this time away with family and friends. Stop stressing and obsessing about going over macros for a few meals or being able to eat exactly 5-6 meals on the days you eat off plan. I'm as OCD as they come with my nutrition and training, but there always needs to be a time during the year when you should relax and step away from being so OCD. You're not going to lose your muscle and gain a ton of fat as long as you're not bingeing all day every day.

Nicole and I are currently in Vegas for 2 weeks on outer annual birthday/Olympia vacation. We will have our regular meals and also a few off plan meals. Sometimes we eat 4 meals, sometimes 3, ......We don't eat exact amounts because our focus is to just relax and be with each other and ZERO stress. Give yourself a break at times and your body will thank you ... See MoreSee Less
