Keep it simple: eat enough protein, lift heavy weight, don’t under-eat.

If doing cardio sounds horrible to you, it's because you don't make it interesting. You don't need to run on the treadmill in the gym. Go swimming. Ride a bike. Run through the woods. Make it interesting for yourself.

It’s leg day bro. That means doing curls in the squat rack. -Brofessor Dom

1. Be a beginner
2. Keep careful track of calories on a deficit
3. Get your protein
4. Do cardio AND weight training
5. Carb Cycling (Eat the number of calories and macros you need on specific days)

Hope this helps have an awesome day :D

I feel betrayed.

[brandonadrien]

Not learning anything new this time, but I'm glad since that means my style isn't a mess. Consistent various exercising and consistent good nutrition doesn't betray you.

I love the fact that you guys mentioned "resistance training" as in "lifting" (gym) and "calisthenics" to preserve (and increase, of course) our muscles. When you really know what you are doing, expect only gainz every week you get.

Don't cut calories cut sugar
A golden tip

Omg this is SO important, when i lose all motivation im always super scared i will lose everything

1-2 week diet breaks have been a life saver for me on a diet. Better muscle retainment, improved mood, improved hormones (leptin etc), strenght gains, better sleep, lower stress and able to keep cutting on higher calories after the diet break . Highly recommend everyone to do diet breaks instead of refeed days. Or you can do both if you want to :)

I really needed this video a few months ago.... before I went on a cut without knowing what I was doing and losing a good portion of my strength and size

[danielbiasoli]

“I started doing my cardio with no hands”

Muscle loss has always been an issue when I have been traveling and did not have the time to workout sufficiently.
Not having a caloric deficit while walking for the whole day around is pretty hard, because you gotta sit down and eat a lot. Additionally, when you are traveling and seeing new places, you easily forget about food.

[arshedjunaid]

I was losing weight but it took me some time to realize my bmr and muscle mass kept reducing.. I kept having a calorie deficit everyday.
I’m glad I watched this video. Time to change things.

[gregcarlson]

I pride myself in making I don’t listen to the annoying video ad. Thank goodness YouTube lets us double tap the right side of the video to skip 10 seconds. I just keep double tapping till he stops droning on about whatever squarespace does.

The calories part goes for weight gain as well, for most people always see getting fit as a part of losing weight and not gaining that. I used to be 134 pounds and I now sit comfortably at 161 with no additional weight on me. 3000+ calories a day, carbs, water, salt, and 6 days a week of 2 hour long work outs and I gained that weight in muscle in only a few months, about half a year. For all you skinny folk that’s tired of being the skinny guy or gal I advise you work hard man, no metabolism can keep you from gaining muscle if you work hard for it.
