  • Canned tuna, Dannon Light greek yogurt or Low fat cheese individual strips are some good ones.
  • It could just be how his face looks like, maybe he is having a bad day or maybe you were making a face that you didn't realize you were doing. Don't sweat it.
  • Buy cans & not liters & everytime you open up a can pour some out and drink the rest. Try to see how hard that is & do this ever single time you open up the can.
  • Pre-works out will help you get energy but your still going to have to push through it. C4 (2 packs for 40$ @ costco) Jack3d - Its like $27-35 if you have a vitaminshoppe near you.
  • Rob Bailey and the Hustle Standard ( It's a mixture of rock & trap/house music)
  • Rice & potato are pretty carb heavy with little fat and protein
  • - Don't fast forward any parts when you are getting tired or lazy. - Don't get discouraged if you can't do a movement. It takes time before you start getting in the grove of things. It's tough if its your first time but its well worth it.. - Try starting with a friend. This can help get you even more motivated (maybe place…

  • You should look into your TDEE #s & reducing it by 15-20% it will make things a lot easier for you.
  • Don't trust the system! Enter in your own information. Scan the bar code if the macros are not snown (sometimes they will pop up).
  • Similar to you....I generally try to reach my macros in this order - protein goal first, then go for fats and then Carbs. Sometimes i would go over some of the macros by 5-10 but nothing extreme (unless I go on vacation ;)) If your loosing weight and not really that hungry then you are on the right track! The only…
  • I personally try to hit my protein first, then fat & then the carb. Have you had any luck staying within your fat range? Isnt yours set to like 25-30ish?
  • Depending on my lifting days I am currently cutting 1800-1950 Calories a day. The ratio that has been working for me is 35% C, 30%Fat, 35%P. What are your calories looking like?
  • Personally, Eating back your calories & using the MFP method can get a bit more complicated. You should consider using your TDEE #'s then reducing that amount anywhere betwen 15-20%. I use this method and have steadily been loosing .5-1.2pds a week.
  • Matt Major, Bart Kwan, HumerusFitness, Massthetics, Zack Zeiler (just found out about this channel!), Christian Guzman & I am subscribed to many mentioned above but I would say these are some of my top picks.
  • Try spreading your meals out. Maybe 4-5 meals a day. What typically works for me is 8am meal, 11ish meal, 2:30ish meal & then around 5-7pm have another meal.
  • Just stocked on the salted Caramal & add instant coffee to it - is my new favorite! Just an FYI costco sells a variety pack of 18 for 10-11 bucks.
  • Greek Yogurt (Dannon light and fit 80 Cals) Joseph's Flax wheat bread sheets (best macros per serving by far) Chicken breasts/ground beef/steak Store brand sugar free oatmeal packages (better macros then Quaker brand) Quaker Rice Cakes (Caramel, apple cinnamon or Chocolate)
  • Age: 23 Male Height 5'6 Starting Weight:170.3 lbs (Dec. 12, 2014 ) Current Weight:between 161.8lbs & 162.4lbs (Jan. 29, 2015) Goal Weight: Not sure yet. I want to see how lean I can get. Goal: Fat Loss Calories : 1,965 on Lifting days & 1,805 on non lifting days Carbs: 175 on lifting days & 135 on non lifting days Fat: 65…
  • Dannon fit & light Greek yogurt (80Calories) - 9 Carb, 0 fat & 12 Protein! You should be able to buy them at your grocery store. Costco has the best deals on these - A container of 18 for 10-11 bucks.
  • Go on youtube and search flexible dieting or IIFYM day of eating. You will see alot of ideas on there.
  • Be consistent with your weigh ins. I usually weigh myself in the AM right after waking up & using the bathroom.
  • You should also Email you Macro Coach and see what they say for you. If you paid for the macro planning I am sure they gave you a certain time frame for their services.
  • I try to reach my protein intake first before fat, then try for fat before carbs. This does not always work out but it helps with my base. I feel eating more Protein keeps me satisfied rather then eating the carbs.
  • I typically eat the same & cook on sundays for Mon-Thursdays' meals. A regular staple for me is rice, chicken/steak/ground beef with veggies. I typically try adding low/no calorie sauces - buffalo, BBQ or low sugar ketchup to my food. You should also try switching up your carb source for regular or sweet patatos or any…
  • I follow my macro count - there are times where the macros don't equal the calories, generally the difference is from the fiber count. I have an excel spread sheet that calcs (1G of Protein & 1G of Carb @ 4 Calories each & 1 gram of Fat @ 9 calories. I know if I would follow the calorie count my numbers would be way off.
  • You should look into a rumble roller - my best investment thus far! The foam roller was good at first but once you get used to it, you will want to go deeper :wink:.
  • Depends how much Calories you are taking in & if you are being consistent. It could be that your calories are on the real low side or you are eating at maintnence. When I see my weight is stable for 1 and half or so, I will bring my carb, protein & fat down by 5 grams each and see how my body reacts.
  • Read through this http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1161603/so-you-want-a-nice-stomach/p1
  • You should try kneeling cable crunches. I typically start with high rep sets with moderate weight. Then increase the weight and do sets in the 5-6 rep range to finsh them off. I feel these more then any ab excercise I have ever done. You can youtube this so you can have an idea for form.
  • Not sure if anyone mentioned this to you but on Bodybuilding.com there are video tutorials on lifting, targeting certain muscle groups. You should try to look into this website. It's very informative.
