Bodyweight Exercises: No More Recipes!
Have you ever seen a fitness book that DOESN’T include dozens of stupid recipes that you will never make? The intention is to have you follow a specific dietary program. The reality is that this section of the book is never read. Never.
How we eat is a huge problem. And the 100’s of “fad” diets that come out every year, masquerading as “scientific studies” and “proven techniques” just add to the noise of confusion.
I have been doing weightlifting, yoga, karate, or bodyweight exercises for almost 30 years and I never - NOT once - followed the chapter of recipes in any book. Why? Because it takes too damn long!
When I was opening a new office in one state, but still managing all my work in the old office, and commuting between the 2 - the only way to eat was fast food places. I picked the healthiest alternatives (Hardee’s BBQ grilled chicken has only 4 gms fat, I seem to recall). But the point is that you can’t prepare walnut-and-tofu-with-lean-chicken-salad at Gate 17 of Midway Airport!
So what’s the solution?
Ø find a diet solution that is flexible and compatible with your life;
Ø find a diet solution that allows you to “fall off the wagon” with respect to what you eat;
Ø find a diet solution that fits in with your chosen exercise routine. Do you need to become a nutritionist? No. Heck, I can brush my teeth, but I’m not a dentist. You do need to understand fundamentals of eating (too many fats are bad, but some fats are good, especially for infants) and then YOU can decide what to eat. So check out The FITNESS Portal for products that fit everything we’ve talked about.
