  • Complete meals: All meals (snacks included) should have protein, fats, and veggies or fruits (except around training)
  • Eat every 2-3 hours. You should be eating around 5-8 meals per day
  • Fruits and veggies are a must with all meals

  • Avoid flavoured drinks (studies report no body comp difference between those who drink diet pop and normal pop. However, a massive difference between those who drink pop and those who drink water.)
  • Eat Low GI carbohydrates. Try to get most of your carbs from fruits and veggies (except workout and post workout)
  • Eat complete protein (has all the essential amino acids. vegetables, beans and so on dont have complete protein. The only non animal products with complete protein are hemp and quinoa. However you can combine the correct types of vegies to make complete proteins)
  • 30% of your diet should come from fats split evenly between polyunsaturated (eg. grape seed oil, flax oil, hemp oil, salmon oil) , monounsaturated (eg, avocado oil, walnut oil, olive oil) , saturated (eg. animal fat, coconut oil, palm oil)
  • Make one change a week. It’s no rush don’t overwhelm yourself!

    Woah! I'm really loving the template/theme of this blog. It's
    simple, yet effective. A lot of times it's difficult to get that "perfect balance" between user friendliness and visual appeal. I must say that you've done a excellent job with this.

    In addition, the blog loads extremely fast for me on Firefox.
    Excellent Blog!
    My website: cosmetics online
