Calorie density is one of the number one ways people screw themselves over without really even realizing it.
-
Tiny amounts of food can still pack a massive calorie punch; particularly if they’re high in dietary fat.
-
Almonds and dark chocolate, while actually pretty good for you in small quantities, both contain a ton of dietary fat per serving. That’s fine, but if you’re trying to maintain a caloric deficit, this is some of the worst bang for your buck possible.
-
For fat loss, we want high volume/low calorie, not the other way around.

Most people track the “big” things like sets, reps, weight, etc.
-
That all matters, sure, but they’re all inputs. Recovery is what determines whether your body actually adapts to them.
-
You can’t keep increasing training volume while sleeping 4-5 hours, eating like a chipmunk, and walking around dehydrated every day. I mean,I guess you can, but you can’t do those things and then act surprised when you make zero progress.
-
Your body isn’t struggling because you don’t work hard enough, it’s struggling because you’re not giving it what it needs to actually produce what you want it to.

The risk of something becoming unhealthy/unsafe isn’t really relevant. Anything can cause harm if you use it poorly enough, do too much of it, etc. Anything can become unhealthy when taken to an extreme.
-
People take their (often very poorly executed) experience with calorie counting, imprint it onto everyone else, and say, “Therefore nobody should track calories.” That’s like saying nobody should budget because you’ll develop a spending disorder.
-
Calorie tracking is just data collection. You’re figuring out how much you’re actually eating, whether you’re in a calorie deficit, why your weight is or isn’t changing, and which habits are helping and which aren’t.
-
A tool isn’t good or bad, it just is. You’re the one whose responsibility it is to use it appropriately.

A lot of consistency comes from deciding certain behaviors are just part of who you are.
-
I don’t brush my teeth, go to work, train, etc. because I’m motivated. At some point, the question stops being, “Do I feel like doing this?” and becomes, “What am I gonna do, not do it?”
-
The easier you make that answer, the easier consistency becomes.

Meal prep becomes a lot less daunting when you can let something else do 95% of the work. Four and a half-ish pounds of delicious shredded chicken, barely any effort involved.
-
This goes with any basic carbohydrate you prep alongside it. Rice, pasta, potatoes, whatever you want and it’s still gonna work. You can easily prep a few days worth of protein with this, if not an entire week if you add a few more breasts if you’ve got room in the pot.
-
Ingredients:
5-6 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast
2 packets taco seasoning
1 large jar salsa (16–24 oz)
-
Instructions:
Trim the chicken, mix everything together in the crockpot, leave it on high for 8 hours. Done.

I don’t know where people got the idea that machines are a downgrade from free weights.
-
Your muscles don’t care whether the resistance came from a barbell, dumbbell, cable, machine, etc. All that matters to them is sufficient mechanical tension.
-
I’m not saying one is better than the other; they’re both great, but the extra stability machines provide often lets you focus far more of your energy on simply pushing/pulling as hard as possible. Which creates what we’re after - mechanical tension
-
Muscles respond to stimulus; period. Doesn’t matter what form it takes.

I can’t be the only one that increases the cable stack by five pounds on lateral raises and proceeds to crank out a whopping three reps, whereas five pounds lighter I can do a clean set of 12.

If you make a mistake/fall of your plan/whatever, the best possible time to start rectifying the situation is the millisecond you recognize the mistake.
-
Don’t milk one mistake on Thursday into a weekend bender and tell yourself you’ll “start fresh” on Monday.
-
Just acknowledge you messed up, get back up, and keep pushing forward.

One of the fastest ways to ruin a fat loss phase is to panic over normal weight fluctuations.
-
If you wake up 2-3 pounds heavier than the day before, ask yourself these questions:
Did I eat more carbs than usual yesterday?
Did I eat a salty restaurant meal?
Do I have more food volume sitting in my stomach?
Did I weigh myself at a different time?
Am I comparing one weigh-in instead of the weekly trend?
-
Body fat changes slowly compared to scale weight; scale weight can jump all over the place day to day. Judge your progress based on the trend over the last 1-2 weeks, not a single weigh-in.

Trying to eliminate every craving is a losing strategy.
-
If the only way your diet works is by never eating anything sweet, eventually you’re going to hate the diet. The goal isn’t to avoid sweets forever. The goal is to find options that satisfy the craving without wrecking your calories.
-
So with that in mind, let’s make cookie dough lol.
-

1 cup fat free cottage cheese
1 tbsp semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 scoop vanilla whey protein
