I know it's enjoyable but it has to stop. Snacking is a terrible habbit for a lot of people, myself included. Its been a long day, you finally sit down and kick your feet up, why not grab a box of crackers or a bag of chips. By the time you decide to put them away the bags 3/4 gone and you figure you might as well finish them off.

Drink more water, it's that simple. It's easy to go an entire day without taking a single sip of water. That must change.
Coffee doesn't count. Coffee is a diuretic and because of that, you actually need to drink more water to make up for it.

Anytime the topic of discussion in my blogs,
articles or newsletters has turned to my own personal grocery shopping
list, there has always been a spike in interest. It seems that many
people are not only curious about what foods a natural bodybuilder eats
to maintain single digit body fat, but they also want to be taken by
the hand and told exactly what foods to eat themselves while on
fat-burning or muscle building programs. That’s why I decided
to put together four separate “top 10” lists of
healthy foods that burn fat and build muscle.

that just part of the price you pay for a better body? You’re

numbers every day or become a fanatic about it.

Imagine your in a situation
(work, plane, train,
automobile) where you just
didn't prepare any healthy
foods. Maybe you are in a
situation where the only
choice to eat something is
junk food.
I'm sure this doesn't
happen to you that often
right?
But when it does, should
you eat junk foods to keep
your metabolism up or would
it be more beneficial to not
eat at all?

If you've caused metabolic damage as a result of
following starvation diets or losing weight too rapidly in the past, it
can be extremely difficult to achieve any further fat loss at all. The
good news is, metabolic damage can be repaired. All it takes is the
right combination of metabolism stimulating exercise and metabolism
stimulating nutrition (NOT just a diet), all done consistently over
time.

If you are trying to build
up muscle or burn off the
fat and your eating habits
are not optimal... this
letter is for you. It's the
4 (four) Rules of Nutrition.
Normally I don't like to
use the word 'rule' as it
sounds like I'm being an
absolutist and it's my way
or the highway. That isn't
how I mean it at all. But
generally speaking, if you
aren't doing these 4 things
when it comes to nutrition,
you will not succeed at your
performance goals.

I have very little interest these days in all the
media-hyped stories of dramatic, rapid losses of body weight. “Big losers”
don’t impress me, for numerous reasons. For example, weight is not fat.
“Weight” could be composed of mostly lean tissue, or it could be mostly water
weight. In fact, I would go a step further and point out that rapid loss of bodyweight
correlates very highly with a greater chance of relapse, weight re-gain and
long term failure.

you’re getting an honest and unbiased opinion.

Let's face it.. sleep is
necessary for life!
Better yet, sleep has an
increased rate of anabolism
(the synthesis of cell
structures), and a decreased
rate of catabolism (the
breakdown of cell
structures).
What this means to you is
more muscle.
