About the video:
When it comes to getting lean, your eating habits are the most important element. Yes, resistance training is important for building muscle and preventing muscle loss but the primary driver of fat loss is creating a calorie deficit through your nutrition. Unfortunately, most people never learn to eat properly and a set of bad eating habits keeps holding them back from getting a lean physique and staying lean long-term.

This is why in this video I share 5 healthy eating habits that will help you get lean and stay lean. These are also habits I’ve personally been practicing for almost a decade and have allowed me to get to 10% body fat and stay between 10 and 15% body fat for over 8 years now. Implement these to your plan and you will see results.

For anyone that might care I eat about 2200 calories a day. I am not on a diet of any sort. I lift 4x week and cardio(running 3x/wk. Mon-Fri my diet is basically this (breakfast)oat meal with milk and protein, 2 eggs. (Lunch) Ham and cheese sandwich with tomato, lettuce and sometimes hummus, plus 3 or so pieces of fruit. (snack) 2 hours later, protein shake. (Dinner) fish or chicken over pasta and a giant salad. On the weekend it is basically the same but I add 3-4 glasses of wine somewhere. I allow myself the wine 1 because I enjoy it and 2 because those are my running days (7-10) miles. I am almost always at around my calories. I am 50 years old, 5-9 and 170 pounds or so. Probably about 15% BF. I just try to keep it simple and find that this works for me.

I think for me the biggest thing is keeping the majority of my intake as veggies, fruits and lean proteins. Because eating this way is not only loaded with nutrients, but it’s also very low in calorie density, so my meals usually look pretty massive and feel massive due to the huge volume and fiber content, but each meal may only be around 400-600 calories.

The best strategy for me has been to stop thinking about breakfast/lunch/dinner… Instead just perceiving food as 5 daily servings of minimum 25 grams of protein. I’ll eat them spread across the day or all in 1-2 sittings, depending on my schedule and whether I’m bulking or cutting. If I’m invited to some kind of party or restaurant to eat, I either displace 1-2 meals in the day ahead of time or subtract meals from the next day if I over ate.

Thanks for all your great videos! Your information has been priceless and helped me with my goals. I’ve slowly lost 25lbs in a year to make weight for a powerlifting meet. I was able to get stronger and I can still eat a lot of calories to maintain. Thanks for helping me to finally lose weight the RIGHT way!
