The Secret to Weight Loss that the Pros Won't Tell You

Here's the secret that no one on social media will tell you about weight loss and improving your physique because it's not profitable...

There's no secret or "key."

Time + Consistency = Results. This Is the Way.

When I started my journey, I was militant about drinking 3-4 gallons of water, walking 12k+ steps a day, eating 1g of protein per lb of goal body weight, tracking every calorie I ate, and hitting the gym 5-6 to six times weekly.

Honestly, this was an unsustainable lifestyle for me—as it is for MANY people. Did all these things help kickstart my journey to shreddedness? Sure, they did.

But how long could I sustain that? I realized I couldn’t

And how healthy was I really? Plot twist: I finally looked great without a shirt but was far from living the healthiest I could be.

Fast forward around 1.5 years since I began this journey into the world of health and fitness, and here's my "secret" sauce for sustained health and continuously improved physical fitness now:

• I eat somewhere in the range of .6-0.7g of protein per lb (if that some days)

• I don't track a single calorie—but that doesn’t mean I’m not conscious of what I eat (I understand portion sizes and what I'm eating after a year of militant tracking)

• I still drink around 3 gallons of water a day, but I enjoy drinking water, and this isn’t a chore

• I don't ever drink alcohol

• I move every day (sometimes that's 5k steps, sometimes it's 15k)

• I bodyweight strength train 2x weekly and calisthenics skills train 1x (most weeks)

This is a sustainable lifestyle for me and allows me to stay shredded and steadily gain muscle size and strength without restriction. An important caveat is that what works for me might not work for you or the next person.

There is no one-size-fits-all answer to health and fitness, and anyone who tries to give you a black-and-white answer or sell you on a magic diet or exercise routine doesn’t know shit or wants your money.

Everyone Can Improve Somewhere

But there are a few things that I believe almost everyone can improve on that will help with the gains:

• Increased movement (there's no magic number, no matter what any influenza on social media says)

• Increased water intake

• Increased fibre intake

• Eating more whole foods (not cutting out all the things they enjoy, just adding more nutrient-dense foods)

• Decreasing or eliminating alcohol

• Strength training 2-3x weekly

I hope that helps you on your journey!
