How To Set Your Leangains Macros For A Cut
It seems to be one of the most commonly “Googled” questions, and it’s generally the very first inquiry a potential client has when contacting me about my services. “Dude, set my macros, please…..” Everyone who has been doing this for a substantial amount of time has preferences.

The Dream Body Equation – Analysis Part 1: Slight Caloric Deficit
After years and years of doing the wrong thing, I feel confident that I’ve “hacked the code” to general health and well being. But it truly did take a really long time. It was frustrating, to say the least. There’s nothing worse than starting a new regimen, getting results, stopping (for whatever reason), and […]
Intermittent Fasting and Leangains Are NOT Magic!
It’s funny how things evolve. When I first began experimenting with various eating and fasting protocols, the changes were small at first. I began by jumping full-bore into the carbophobic-Atkins loving, bacon-buffet, carbs will kill you, William Davis-worshipping crowd. Did avoiding carbs at all costs work? Yessir.

A Frustrating, All-Too Common Fitness Nightmare………
This is a cautionary tale. A parable, if you will. All across America, men and women will be vowing, no, promising to finally lose the weight and get in shape.

There’s so many choices this time of year. We know we’ll have to make them. And it’s not exactly like the person making the dish […]
Get Comfortable With Being Uncomfortable – And Reap The Benefits
It’s the dad of a toddler who runs to his child’s every whimper, cry, and whine and tries to fix it. It’s the out-of-shape soccer mom who runs for the fridge at the slightest twinge of hunger. It’s the 13-year old on the soccer team who seems to have an “asthmatic attack” every time the […]
IIFYM vs. “Clean Eating” – A Regular Guy’s Thoughts
You may notice a theme in most of my posts. Weightloss. It’s mainly what I’ve been focusing on. This is for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, there are very, very few people out there who are truly at a place, physically, where they don’t want to lose any more weight. Perhaps the chronically […]
Lesson 6 – Things To Adjust While Dieting – And Things To LEAVE THE HECK ALONE,
Patience is fleeting for all of us. When we want something, we want it now. Our society has become inundated with the me-first style of thinking which practically infests our mind with the idea that we should have it all. Right now. Not in ten minutes, or ten weeks, or ten months. But now. Fitness […]
