FAT LOSS, SIMPLIFIED -

1️⃣ What is the 80% diet? It's making sure that 80% of the foods you eat every day come from vegetables, fruits, proteins, nuts, seeds, etc. The other 20% you can leave for breads and desserts. Perfect is a myth. Consistency is the key. And mastering consistency is all about creating a plan that is simple and leaves room for some of the stuff that isn't considered "healthy."

2️⃣ What's heavy? It's all relative to YOUR strength. One of the main goal of strength training is to become stronger. That can mean more sets, reps, or weight. Do not fear becoming stronger. It will not make you bulky, but it will force your metabolism to work harder, improve your hormonal environment (improving things like your insulin resistance), and add muscle.

3️⃣ Sleep. It might be the MOST underrated fat loss tool. In research examining sleep, dieters were put on different sleep schedules. When their bodies received adequate rest, half of the weight they lost was from fat.

However when they cut back on sleep, the amount of fat lost was cut in half—even though they were on the same diet. What’s more, they felt significantly hungrier, were less satisfied after meals, and lacked energy to exercise. Overall, those on a sleep-deprived diet experienced a 55 percent reduction in fat loss compared to their well-rested counterparts.

4️⃣ Cardio can come in many forms: Sprinting, swimming, biking, lifting weight, battling ropes, kettlebell swings...and too many other forms to list. Focus on high intensity, low duration. Things like 20 seconds of sprinting followed by 40 seconds of rest. Repeat 5-10 times and call it a day. High intensity cardio = effective way to blast stubborn fat.

5️⃣ Fat loss can be a pain in the ass. It starts and stops. But you know what shouldn't stop? YOU. Plateau is a part of the journey, but if you see it through and don't stop, you will achieve your goals.
