When I was just a little baby boy my bros used to tell me these crazy things,

They used to tell me deadlifts are bad for your back, and cardio will hurt your gains,

But then I got a little bit older and I realized they were the crazy ones,

There was nothing I could do to go and try to change it, ‘cuz that’s just the way it was.

Without any further ado, let’s get started..

N.W.A. Tip Of The Week

I’ve been in the trenches, helping people lose body fat for the last dozen years.

I’ve seen what works.

And (perhaps) more importantly, I’ve seen what doesn’t work.

“Eat Less, Move More” is simplistic, but in essence, it’s true.

It’s just not very helpful…

The question isn’t “should we eat less and move more to lose weight”?

The question is “How do we get ourselves to eat less and move more”?

Or perhaps “What is the best way to get ourselves to eat less and move more?”

Here are the 5 strategies I give to every 1:1 fat loss client when I send their program over to them.

I call them “The 5 Laws Of Fat Loss”.

I hope you find them useful.

#1 – Hit your protein and calories every single day (fats and carbs can vary).

If you boiled fat loss down to its simplest form, it looks like this:

Get your calories in line and eat ample protein.

The reality is all else is secondary to this.

Everything.

Your exact split of carbs vs fats is a small detail.

When you eat your meals is a minute point.

Whether you eat a seed oil or two, drink a Diet Coke, or ingest some high fructose corn syrup means next to nothing.

Just hit your protein and calories, every single day, and you will get excellent results.

If one day out of every week or two you go a bit over, it won’t make a huge difference – you’ll still make excellent progress.

BUT if you go over twice in a week, you won’t make much progress at all.

Yes, that means if you’re perfect every week day, but you mess up every weekend day, your progress will grind to a halt.

A 5 out of 7 is a 71% – that’s a C-.

You can’t expect “A+ Results” with a C- consistency score.

#2 – Aim for ‘The Trifecta’ – foods that are healthy, tasty, and repeatable.

Healthy – they hit your calories and protein.

Tasty – you enjoy them (very important!).

Repeatable – you can eat them frequently and not tire of them.

This is the “zone” you want to be in with your diet.

Seek out whole foods that hit this criteria.

Ask yourself, “What meats, fruits, veggies, carb sources, dairy sources, etc will be healthy, tasty, and repeatable for me?”

Stock up on these foods and use them as the staples in your diet.

#3 – Uniform Eating makes fat loss easier, and puts it on “auto-pilot”.

With uniform eating, you eat the same thing every day for breakfast and lunch.

And you have a collection of 7-10 dinners you rotate through.

Every meal hits “The Trifecta”.

That way, you actually don’t need to track anything; you just need to eat your meals, since they’ve all been tracked in the past.

This automates the fat loss process, and makes losing weight a breeze.

No, you don’t need to eat the same thing for the rest of your life – eventually, you’ll tire of a specific meal and swap it out for something else.

No worries, just save all your meals and templates for the future.

Eventually, you’ll have a massive database of meals that fit your fat loss numbers that you enjoy.

I have done this myself – and I never have to count a thing, even when dieting.

I instinctively know exactly what to eat to lose fat, and I find it very easy now (which was not always the case).

#4 – Never wake up without knowing what you’re going to eat that day.

You should always have a plan.

ALWAYS.

You should never wake up and think, “Gee, what am I going to eat today?”

Without a plan, you are relying on your willpower.

When you have a plan, you are being disciplined.

Discipline goes much further than willpower does.

You don’t want to have to commit any active thought to your diet.

It should be “thoughtless”.

When you have a plan, you don’t need to think – you just execute your plan – and your consistency will skyrocket as a result.

#5 – Yes, you should have a plan on the weekends, too.

Weekends can be either super crazy, or super chill, depending on what stage of life you’re in.

If you have 3 kids and they all play travel sports, they’ll be super crazy.

If you don’t have kids, or they’re out of high school, they’ll be super chill.

But you should still have a plan either way.

If you’re going to be on the go all weekend, pack a cooler and be prepared with foods that hit The Trifecta.

If you’re going to be dining out, look at the menu in advance (always have a plan) so you don’t get caught up in FOMO (and so you can plan your other meals properly to hit your calories and protein).

One of the biggest reasons people go off the rails on the weekend is they don’t plan their weekend diets.

Avoid this, make your plan, and execute.

With these 5 strategies, you can’t lose.

If you’re struggling to lose fat, print this newsletter off, and hang it on your fridge as a reminder.

And remember – you got this.

You can do it.

I know you can.
