I'm taking a long my journey my process to get in the most absolute top physical specimen physique form Body shell skin suit. I've ever had all right, so I want to share this these tips with you guys and a lot of clients I deal with this is the things that they struggle with so the first thing is the principle of Of you have to be in a caloric deficit to lose weight and burn fat Okay, it's inevitable you have to be in a fort deficit So the only way to figure out if you're in a court deficit or not is to track your weight And also see how many calories you're consuming on average They buy tracking your food So if you don't have to track your food get some sort of tracking app my fitness pal RP diet app I think it's the ones called chronometer. There's a ton of other ones out there Basically record what you eat for several days and see where your calories are at okay and calories are comprised of Protein carbs and fats those are at equal your calories and those are called macros All right, then we get into how do we portion those a little bit later on But basically you guys if you're not doing this okay, you have your target right you're trying to hit a bullseye But you're doing it in pitch black so you have to be tracking those calories that is step number one Is figure your calories and then somehow get yourself into a deficit now? We'll say this the easiest way to get into a deficit guys is by nutrition Okay, not by trying to train harder although we want to train okay, but the problem with that is we're gonna become hunger You're if we're continuing to try to push ourselves and train more right we're very active Okay, our app is going to be very high So what I like to do is just reduce those calories a little bit Okay, and when it comes to cardio probably do things more longs of lines of Low-intense steady state okay like walking I love to walk I want a ton and that helps me keep my appetite suppressed while keeping as much muscle as possible while in the cut and also keep me in that deficit Now the second one I want to talk about and this is something I was super eye-opening for me All right was I was consuming a ton of fat and this is like fat. I wasn't thinking about okay So it's like you know we make our eggs right we make our food we put a little bit of butter right we think It's a little butter right and then we actually measure how much butter okay?

There's four calories all right So if you're having excess fat right it's going to really Add those calories that could be better spent somewhere else or just not at all Uh, so that we are in a deficit the last tip okay the last tip and this is something I was guilty of for a long time Okay is the weekend warrior right so I would kill it all week right stick to my mac or stick to my train sessions Was just like a like a freaking robot like killing it all week long. That was made However on the weekend right I thought I have a cheat meal well a cheat meal would turn into a cheat day Okay, we're a couple cheat meals and all that hard work that I put in throughout the week saying that deficit I now just balanced out by a weekend of cheat meal or maybe I drank a little bit too much so You have to focus on keeping that routine the entire week throughout the entire prep and there's gonna be some little tricks That I can talk about in other videos because the main thing here is to stay compliant and And I've said this a ton.
