Holiday Food Basics

During the holidays, there’s always an abundance of feasting with friends and family. By sticking with the following tips, you can curb the excess weight gain that always seems to crop up around this time of year. 

Eat whole foods over processed foods, they are more nutrient dense.

Eat high quality protein with every meal.

Eat more healthy fats such as Omega 3’s. Eat less or better yet, no trans-fats.

Learn the difference between fibrous carbohydrates, complex carbohydrates and simple carbohydrates.

Get most of your carbohydrates from veggies and fruits (in that order).

Eat the right kind of carbohydrates at the right time (fibrous carbohydrates over all others when possible).

Ingest all other carbohydrates (simple or complex) post-workout; your body will use them better.

Eat more fiber.

Learn to read labels and critically analyze them.

Sound nutrition is the best method of losing body fat, increasing metabolism and buoying energy levels.

This is the best foundation for healthy living.

Educate yourself; it will go a long way.

To your health.

Get Shredded Six Pack Abs in Two Simple Steps

Step 1. Nutrition: If you missed my post on eating like crap, maybe you should go back a few days and take a look. What and how you eat plays one of the biggest roles in what your abs look like. If you’re eating like crap check out the ultimate nutrition system used by some of the top physiques in the world. You may have the most ripped six pack, but it does you no good if  it’s covered by a layer of fat.

Step 2. Resistance train: Push, pull, throw, jump, crawl, hold or ______ (fill in the blank with any other movement you can think of). Lift weights, throw medicine balls, swing kettlebells, do sprints, or use bands. Do it with high intensity. And no excuses. 

Your muscles won’t build themselves.

There you have it.

 

You can be the proud owner of these in just two steps!

Do you eat like crap?

So how’s your diet?

Ok, first off, I hate the term diet, but I knew it would get your attention. 

So…what’s your answer?

Are you on a specific eating plan?

Do you have a nutritional system in place?

Or are you like most people who “wing” it? 

Most people “know” the basics of good nutrition. They “know” what food is good for them. They “know” what food they should be eating. They “know” what foods they should avoid.

So why are people getting bigger and fatter? Why is obesity becoming a bigger and bigger problem if everyone “knows” nutrition?

The answer, my friends, is quite simple.

It’s not the knowledge that’s lacking, it’s the application of that knowledge. It’s great to have all this information available at your fingertips.

If you have a question about nutrition, you can just type your search term in to google and in a few moments, you’ll have pages and pages of information at your disposal.  

But these searches won’t usually give you the answers to those fundament and burning questions deep within you.

Tell me, have you ever wondered which diet is the best one? Which one will lead to the greatest weight loss? Which one will slim you down or give you washboard abs?

Most importantly, which one you can stay on perpetually without starving yourself?

What if I told you I know of a system that can do all that and more?

And what if I told you it’s quite simple to implement?

Would you be interested?

Would you want to know more? 

Would you be willing to face your fear of success, or challenge your fear of failure?

The choice is yours, get your free copy of Nutrition Strategies For Success.

You’ve got nothing to lose.

Live Powerfully.
