I find this very interesting and I hope you can extract some good information from it.
This isn't about me being awesome 🤣; it's about sharing quality insights that could help drive you toward your health and fitness goals!
I’ve now gone 2.5 years without missing a scheduled workout. I’m pretty proud of that.
**Key Takeaways:**
- Developing habits, just like brushing our teeth, makes this health and fitness stuff so much easier!
- Consistency is absolutely King!
- Let’s stop using age as an excuse. We got this!
- We can build our metabolism, but it takes a plan.
- We don’t need to be perfect with our nutrition, but we can’t use every day as an excuse to eat like a garbage truck.
**2nd Quarter Goal:**
How much food can I eat and still keep my waist the same size (34”)?
Why is this an important goal?
✅ It takes me away from the scale.
✅ Driving the calories bolsters my nutrition, metabolism, and overall health.
✅ Being aware of the waist measurement helps me keep my body fat in check.
**How did I do?**
💥 I systematically increased my calories by 26% over this time period!
💥 My waist stayed the same at 34 inches (so I don’t think I gained body fat).
💥 Additionally, my strength increased dramatically. My overall training volume over my last 12-week training block increased by over 14%!
I understand this isn’t a perfect study. During one workout, my volume increased by over 25%! At almost 61 years old, these aren’t “newbie gains”—this is the real deal!
🏆 Over the past three months, I got healthier by increasing my calories, stronger through my workouts, and both of which have substantially increased my metabolism!
**3rd Quarter Goals:**
I would like to get a bit leaner and drop some body fat.
Although I’m just getting started, I’m incredibly pleased with my results over this first week and a half. The added muscle has increased my metabolism and is making it easier for me to lose body fat! (I like “easier”!) ⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️
I’m already down over 8 pounds, though I know a fair amount of that is water.
By the way, I’m still eating a ton of food—including over 250g of carbohydrates per day. I mention this for those who erroneously think that carbohydrates are the enemy.
Thank you for letting me share, and I hope this helps.
As I posted the other day…
Building world-class health (or dropping a few pounds) as an adult doesn't have to be complicated! Follow these simple steps to enhance your well-being:
✅ Go for walks
✅ Drink more water
✅ Strength train 2-4 times a week
✅ Eat a healthy whole food diet
✅ Go to bed at a decent time nightly
