Give Me 22 Min... You'll Look Fit As F*ck In Your 30's-40's — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00I'm 39 and I've lost over a 100 pounds.
- 0:02I'm [music] making this video because a
- 0:03lot of women in their 30s and 40s feel
- 0:05like their health and fitness is out of
- 0:07[music] control. And I don't want you to
- 0:09be one of them. I have five rules that I
- 0:11follow that help me a lot going into my
- 0:13late 30s and as I enter my 40s. [music]
- 0:15And maybe they'll help you as much as
- 0:17they've helped me. Rule number one,
- 0:19health and fitness isn't a switch. It's
- 0:21more like a dial. There's no on track or
- 0:24off track or on the wagon or off the
- 0:26wagon. There's no box. If you switch the
- 0:29perspective of either I'm on track or
- 0:31I'm off track, that gives you more space
- 0:34to be able to make progress even when
- 0:37life is lifing. But if you're in the
- 0:39thought process of you're on or off,
- 0:41like a light switch, then you spend a
- 0:44lot of time in off and you can justify
- 0:46all the reasons why you'll start
- 0:48tomorrow. all these things that lead you
- 0:50to not make any actual progress when at
- 0:52some points you could be doing a minimal
- 0:55effective dose and not trying to be
- 0:57perfect and still be making progress. I
- 0:59like to call it a continual cycle of
- 1:02refinement. There's going to be seasons
- 1:03in your life where you're focused on
- 1:04other things and there's going to be
- 1:06seasons in your life where you have the
- 1:07capacity and the bandwidth to focus on
- 1:09making progress in your health and
- 1:11fitness or weight loss, whatever you
- 1:12want to call it. If you take me for
- 1:14example, if you watched my social media
- 1:16a year and a half ago or so, there was a
- 1:19phase where I was doing no alcohol, no
- 1:20ice cream, no protein bars, and no
- 1:22energy drinks, which is clearly not this
- 1:24phase. And for the first little bit,
- 1:25that was progress for me because I made
- 1:28changes in eliminating extra calories in
- 1:30alcohol and the protein bars that I was
- 1:32eating and ice cream. And so I made some
- 1:35progress right away, but I didn't
- 1:36continue to make changes. And so my
- 1:39progress kind of stalled out. So, at
- 1:41first I would say my consistency in what
- 1:43I needed to be doing to make progress at
- 1:44that point was closer to a level 10, but
- 1:47you're not always going to be at a 10 on
- 1:49a scale of 1 to 10. Sometimes you might
- 1:51only be at a five, and that's okay. That
- 1:54can still be making progress from where
- 1:56you were. But it's when you have the all
- 1:57or nothing. It's a light switch. We're
- 1:59on or we're off. You're on the wagon or
- 2:01you're off the wagon. On track or off
- 2:03track. when you're off track, you let
- 2:05yourself sit at a zero instead of maybe
- 2:07a three where you could be making some
- 2:09progress in some areas. So, going back
- 2:11to my no alcohol, no ice cream, no
- 2:12protein bars, no energy drinks, and then
- 2:15kind of plateauing there, I recommitted
- 2:18to new goals and I changed my level of
- 2:21commitment required to hit those goals
- 2:23when I started making progress again.
- 2:24And so instead of getting frustrated
- 2:26with yourself that you're not making
- 2:28progress and giving yourself the I'm off
- 2:30the wagon talk and sitting at zero,
- 2:32there's a few things that you could have
- 2:34a baseline of that's a minimal effective
- 2:36dose to still feel good and be making
- 2:39progress or at least maintaining where
- 2:41you're at. Some minimal effective dose
- 2:43strategies that I have are things like
- 2:45my steps and my movement. So at least
- 2:48three workouts a week and hitting on
- 2:51average 70,000 steps for the week. I do
- 2:5470,000 for the week because some days
- 2:56life be lifen and I can't get 10,000 in
- 2:59the day but other days I have more
- 3:01capacity and I could get 15,000. So I
- 3:03like to look at it as the average for
- 3:05the week. Things like my nutrition. I
- 3:07might not always weigh and track
- 3:09everything that I'm eating, but I at
- 3:12least prioritize my protein. And through
- 3:1415 to 20 years of weighing and tracking
- 3:18food, I've gotten pretty good at
- 3:19eyeballing it and I know what protein
- 3:21sources are. So for me, just
- 3:23prioritizing protein is a great minimal
- 3:25effective dose. For you, it might be
- 3:28weighing and measuring your protein so
- 3:30you know how many grams of protein
- 3:31you're getting in a day. One more
- 3:33minimal effective dose thing that I do
- 3:35is prioritize my sleep because I know
- 3:37what I turn into when I only get 3 hours
- 3:39of sleep. I've been there. It might be
- 3:41productive for a season while you're
- 3:43pushing at something, but it's not
- 3:45productive long term. Not for me
- 3:46anyways. So, I know if I'm getting five
- 3:49and a half to six and a half hours of
- 3:51sleep, that's where I feel my best. And
- 3:53so, I prioritize that so that I'm not a
- 3:56monster. And if I'm tired, it leads to
- 3:58me making other poor decisions
- 3:59throughout the day as well. Things like
- 4:02eating ice cream because my body's like,
- 4:04"Yo, you're tired. You either need sleep
- 4:06or an energy form." And we like our
- 4:09energy form and ice cream when we're
- 4:11tired. So if you look at your health and
- 4:12fitness as a continual cycle of
- 4:15refinement, as a dial that you can
- 4:17adjust and play with some different
- 4:18minimal effective dose or your
- 4:20bandwidth, however you want to look at
- 4:22it, look at a way that serves you
- 4:24instead of the all or nothing on or off
- 4:26concept cuz that's not doing you any
- 4:28favors. Rule number two, Pilates, yoga,
- 4:31cardio, orange theory, and every other
- 4:34workout isn't going to get you a tenth
- 4:37of the result that resistance training
- 4:39will. Story time. I've always been
- 4:41athletic and I grew up on a farm, so
- 4:43I've got farm girl strength. But it
- 4:45wasn't really until I started doing
- 4:47resistance training, when I started
- 4:49competing in strongman, that I actually
- 4:52started to build like a muscular
- 4:55physique. Prior to that, like when I was
- 4:57getting married, my weight loss method
- 5:00of choice was actually a muscle loss
- 5:02method because I would eat super minimal
- 5:05calories and then I would run. Yeah, I
- 5:09said it. Run. I would go run on my lunch
- 5:11break at school. I was taking dental
- 5:13assisting at the time. And so on my
- 5:15lunch break, I would go run on the
- 5:16treadmill and I would only have like a
- 5:18piece of toast for breakfast because
- 5:20that's healthy, right? Maybe some peanut
- 5:22butter on there. And then I would have a
- 5:24shake for lunch. I'd have like some
- 5:25goldfish crackers as a snack in the
- 5:27afternoon during class when I was almost
- 5:29falling asleep because I didn't have any
- 5:31energy left. And then I would go home
- 5:33and eat like a chicken breast and
- 5:35carrots for dinner. Nothing about that
- 5:37was healthy. I lost weight. Sure. I
- 5:39probably also lost muscle. And then I
- 5:41did keto in there, too. So, the extreme
- 5:44calorie deficit and copious amounts of
- 5:46cardio lost weight for me. But there's a
- 5:50difference between weight loss and fat
- 5:52loss. And that was definitely weight
- 5:54loss. Some fat loss, yes. But I also
- 5:57lost likely I don't have the data
- 5:59because I didn't have a DEXA scan, but I
- 6:01lost a lot of my muscle mass. Then I
- 6:03started competing in strongman and
- 6:04actually doing a resistance training
- 6:06program. uh that was based in
- 6:08progressive overload and strength and I
- 6:11started gaining strength. And then more
- 6:12recently when I competed in my
- 6:14bodybuilding competition, I prioritized
- 6:16my protein intake by actually weighing
- 6:18and logging what I was eating and
- 6:20knowing how many grams of protein I was
- 6:22getting in a day and how many calories
- 6:23overall. And I did resistance training
- 6:26and I did no running cardio. I did
- 6:3010,000 steps a day. Sometimes a little
- 6:32bit more up to 15,000 and sometimes just
- 6:35by accident 20,000 because I was living
- 6:38in Mexico and walking. My point being
- 6:40throughout my prep because I prioritize
- 6:42protein and resistance training, I had a
- 6:44DEXA scan done. How many fingers do I
- 6:46have? I had a DEXA scan done before I
- 6:48started prep and after I started prep.
- 6:49And if you don't know what a DEXA scan
- 6:51is, it's a body composition scan and
- 6:53look it up in the details and the
- 6:55accuracy. But that told me that I gained
- 6:58like 3 g of muscle mass throughout my
- 7:02cut for my bodybuilding show. So,
- 7:04because I ate enough protein and I
- 7:06prioritized resistance training and I
- 7:08didn't do any crazy cardio, I was able
- 7:10to maintain my muscle mass as a
- 7:1238-year-old woman while in a calorie
- 7:14deficit. I think those results pretty
- 7:16much speak for themselves. So, you might
- 7:18be like,
- 7:19>> "Yeah, well, what about me? Because I
- 7:20don't have the muscle mass right now
- 7:21that you had." Well, if you focus on
- 7:24progressive overload, and what I mean by
- 7:27that is progressively moving more weight
- 7:30over time. So, you're not going to go
- 7:32from a 50 lb deadlift to 150 lb deadlift
- 7:36tomorrow. That's not what I mean. I mean
- 7:38over time, you're either going to do
- 7:39more reps with the same amount of weight
- 7:43or you're going to increase the weight.
- 7:45So, if you want me to do the math for
- 7:47you, let's say you're doing a squat with
- 7:4850 lb and you're doing 10 of them. So
- 7:51that's 500 lb total. And so if you did
- 7:54in X amount of time, you did 100 pound
- 7:58squats for five reps, that would be the
- 8:01same amount of total volume of weight,
- 8:03500 lb. So if you did 100 lb for six
- 8:07reps, now you've done progressive
- 8:09overload. You're moving 600 lb in that
- 8:12squat rep range. Now that's a big gain,
- 8:14and you don't necessarily have to
- 8:16progress that much. And other muscle
- 8:17groups won't progress as much. something
- 8:19like your shoulders uh move a lot less
- 8:23weight. I'm pretty much still stuck at
- 8:2515 lb lateral raises. I would like to do
- 8:2720 25, but your shoulders are just a
- 8:30smaller muscle group. Your legs are a
- 8:33large muscle group. They can move a lot
- 8:35more weight than something like your
- 8:36shoulders. So, when you're trying to
- 8:37progress in something, even a bicep
- 8:39curl, you're not going to make huge
- 8:41gains like you will using your lower
- 8:43body muscle. So, where do you start with
- 8:44strength training? Well, right where you
- 8:46are. If you're currently doing nothing,
- 8:47something is better than nothing. So,
- 8:49even if you go to the gym two days a
- 8:51week, great. If you're currently going
- 8:53two days a week, go three. If you're
- 8:55going three and you don't have time for
- 8:56more, push yourself a little bit more.
- 8:58Increase your weights. Progressive
- 8:59overload right there. There's multiple
- 9:01ways that you can do it. The thing is,
- 9:02you just have to do it and not confuse
- 9:05yourself about what to do and then not
- 9:06do anything because of overanalysis
- 9:08paralysis. Just go do something and then
- 9:11do more of it. Rule number three, just
- 9:13because something has protein doesn't
- 9:16make it a good protein source. Just
- 9:18because it says protein, it's not like
- 9:19protein equals weight loss. You still
- 9:21have to be smart about it and you still
- 9:23have to be in a calorie deficit. And
- 9:24what I mean by that, here's an example.
- 9:26This morning I was running out of the
- 9:28house for an appointment that I had and
- 9:30I grabbed some meal prep out of the
- 9:32fridge that Coach D had made. And so I
- 9:35was eating this meal that I had planned
- 9:37that had an adequate amount of protein
- 9:38for what I needed in that meal. I
- 9:40stopped at a gas station to get gas in
- 9:42the truck. Side note, I'll get gas in
- 9:44the morning is like the worst decision
- 9:46that you can make. Just do it now. So, I
- 9:49go into the gas station and I grab a
- 9:50protein shake because I was like, I
- 9:52don't have any more food right now
- 9:55planned for the day. Got to come and
- 9:57film. Uh, I'm going to bring this
- 9:58protein shake, you know, in case. So,
- 10:01that's like in a good, better, best
- 10:02option. Uh, it would maybe be better
- 10:05than something else, but not the best,
- 10:07right? I started thinking I should just
- 10:09drink this now. It's got 42 grams of
- 10:11protein. Why would I drink this now? I
- 10:12just had a meal that had protein in it.
- 10:14But in my head, even for a second, I was
- 10:16like, "Oh, more protein. Good." But that
- 10:18would have put me over what I need in
- 10:20that moment for the for the meal for the
- 10:22protein. And also drinking your
- 10:25calories. Sometimes you don't even feel
- 10:27full. Later on, you forget that you even
- 10:29drank it. And then you end up overeating
- 10:31because how many of you are like, "Well,
- 10:33I feel like I'm not eating that much."
- 10:35But if you actually logged everything
- 10:38that you eat and drink, you're not in a
- 10:40calorie deficit and that's why you're
- 10:41not making progress. So even if it says
- 10:43protein, that doesn't mean that you need
- 10:45to drink it right now. And it doesn't
- 10:47mean protein equals weight loss. It also
- 10:49like doesn't mean it's a good source of
- 10:51protein. So for example, a way to tell
- 10:55if something is a good source of protein
- 10:57is if you take the amount of protein in
- 11:00it and you times that by 10. If that
- 11:03number is higher than the total calories
- 11:07per serving, then it's a good source of
- 11:08protein. If it's not, it's not a good
- 11:10source of protein. So, if you're at
- 11:12Costco and you're looking at all the
- 11:14protein bars, protein bars that most of
- 11:17them should be actually called carb
- 11:19bars, but then you wouldn't buy them. If
- 11:20you're looking at the protein bars and
- 11:22you flip over the package to the
- 11:23nutritional information and you're like,
- 11:25"Okay, this one has 150 calories in it
- 11:29and it has 17 g of protein." So 17 * 10
- 11:33is 170 the last time I checked and 170
- 11:37is more than 150. So that would make it
- 11:39a good source of protein. But if you
- 11:41look at something like cheese for
- 11:43example or even like quinoa that's
- 11:46another oneami edamami edamami peanuts
- 11:49things like that if you take the protein
- 11:51in them per serving and you times it by
- 11:5310 it is not going to be more than the
- 11:55calories. Most of those items are higher
- 11:58in fat and fat is very calorically
- 12:00dense. So most of the calories in those
- 12:03things are going to be coming from the
- 12:05fat and not the protein, which makes it
- 12:06a fat source, not a protein source. And
- 12:08then sometimes things like protein bars
- 12:11are actually just candy bars dressed up
- 12:13in a tracksuit with better marketing to
- 12:16make you want to buy them. And in some
- 12:18cases, you might be better off just
- 12:20eating the chocolate bar. You might be
- 12:22more fulfilled and satisfied than if you
- 12:25eat something that you don't really
- 12:26enjoy. and then you might end up just
- 12:29eating a chocolate bar later after you
- 12:31ate the thing that you didn't really
- 12:32enjoy. So sometimes you're just better
- 12:34off to eat the chocolate bar and
- 12:36prioritize your protein and your
- 12:37vegetables and all the other things the
- 12:39rest of the day and just don't eat the
- 12:41chocolate bar every day. Rule number
- 12:43four, you don't move less because you
- 12:45get old. You get old because you move
- 12:48less. The number of clients that we have
- 12:50that used to be athletes or dancers or
- 12:55whatever they identify as what they used
- 12:57to be is very large. And now they're
- 13:00middle-aged, overweight women who are
- 13:03not happy with where they're at. And
- 13:05they often feel like they got here
- 13:06overnight almost or like it's their
- 13:08hormones or their metabolism or because
- 13:11they when the clock struck midnight when
- 13:14they turned 40 or 35 or menopause or all
- 13:18of the things. And while in some cases,
- 13:20yes, this could be very well part of the
- 13:23combination of unfortunate events. The
- 13:25other part of the combination of
- 13:28unfortunate events is the way that we've
- 13:29been treating our bodies over time. And
- 13:32if you think about it like compounding
- 13:34interest, I don't know exactly how this
- 13:35goes, but basically if you took a penny
- 13:38and you doubled it every day over the
- 13:40course of a month, you'd have over a
- 13:41million. That's compounding interest.
- 13:43The day before you got to a million, you
- 13:45were only at $500,000. And so 2 days
- 13:48before you got to a million, you were
- 13:50only at $250,000. And 3 days before you
- 13:52got to a million, you were only at
- 13:55125,000. And 4 days, 75,000. And 75,000
- 13:59is a lot different than 1 million, but
- 14:01it's also only like 5 days. That's
- 14:04compounding interest. And so the way
- 14:06that we treat our bodies over time,
- 14:08compounds, and then we wake up one day
- 14:10and we're like, "Holy how did I
- 14:12get here?" And it feels like it happened
- 14:14overnight, but it didn't. It happened
- 14:15every time you did less than you used to
- 14:17do. Think about it. You probably used to
- 14:20play sports. When's the last time that
- 14:21you ran or like jogged or had a little
- 14:25sprint? For me, I used to play soccer
- 14:27and so I was often sprinting and chasing
- 14:29a soccer ball. And as I took that
- 14:31activity out of my life, I started
- 14:33slowing down and getting bigger if I
- 14:35don't do other things that are going to
- 14:37help with that. When we're in our 20s,
- 14:39we eat whatever we want and think that
- 14:40it's not affecting us in the moment.
- 14:42There's no immediate consequence. It's
- 14:44not affecting us right then, but it's
- 14:46affecting us in compounding interest
- 14:48when we turn 40. Because over time,
- 14:51you've been eating in a caloric surplus.
- 14:54You've been not giving your body the
- 14:55nutrients that it needs. You've been
- 14:57compromising your mobility. You've been
- 14:59slowing down. And all of that adds up.
- 15:02And then you hit 40 and you can't even
- 15:04touch your toes anymore. I don't want
- 15:06that to be you. Or I don't want that to
- 15:07be you anymore. There's so many clients
- 15:09that we worked with, too, that their
- 15:10their doctor or someone in their life
- 15:12told them, "Oh, your knee hurts. Well,
- 15:14then just don't squat anymore." Okay,
- 15:15cool. How's that going to go the next
- 15:18time you need to sit on the toilet? Not
- 15:19very well. Your knees hurt? Don't lunge.
- 15:21How's that going to work the next time
- 15:22you need to go up a flight of stairs?
- 15:24How about we work at why you can't and
- 15:27strengthening the muscles and whatnot
- 15:29around the joint so that you can squat,
- 15:32so you can play with your grandkids, so
- 15:34that you can get down on the floor and
- 15:36get up again and not have to contemplate
- 15:39if you get down there, how will you get
- 15:41up again? And a lot of times our life
- 15:43circumstances change. Like as women, we
- 15:46often get married and prioritize someone
- 15:49else. We have kids and we get busy. We
- 15:52have jobs and we prioritize that and we
- 15:55move less than we used to and we eat
- 15:58more than we used to and we don't give
- 16:00our body the nutrients that it needs to
- 16:02be successful and so over time it
- 16:05revolts. If you listen, your body gives
- 16:07you signs, right? Like feeling bloated,
- 16:10feeling tired, like all of these
- 16:13indigestion, all of this stuff. It's
- 16:15giving us signs that we're not taking
- 16:17care of it, but we don't listen and we
- 16:19keep going and we redline it and then
- 16:21all of a sudden you get a slap
- 16:23because you weren't listening to the
- 16:24whispers. So, I would like you, if you
- 16:27haven't gotten a slap yet, to
- 16:29listen to the whispers and start to
- 16:30prioritize what you need before the
- 16:33slap comes in. So often it's not
- 16:36your hormones, it's not your metabolism,
- 16:39it's not your menopause, pmenopause,
- 16:41premenopause, postmenopause. It's often
- 16:44what we do to our body and how we've
- 16:46treated it. And it's a blessing and a
- 16:49curse because if you're the problem,
- 16:50you're also the solution. And it's going
- 16:52to take time. You didn't get here
- 16:54overnight. You're not going to get out
- 16:56of it overnight. And that's okay. As
- 16:58long as you focus on rule number one and
- 17:00making progress and not being on or off,
- 17:04you'll be good. You can help yourself
- 17:06and make progress. Just don't get
- 17:08discouraged thinking that it's supposed
- 17:10to show up overnight and then it doesn't
- 17:11show up overnight and you throw in the
- 17:14towel on yourself. Rule number five, I
- 17:16want you to run a weight loss challenge
- 17:18with yourself and maybe anyone else in
- 17:20the comments section or perhaps you
- 17:21could join our school community and
- 17:23participate there. I've got a challenge
- 17:25going to the end of the year. But for
- 17:26real, if you're watching this, I want
- 17:28you to at least do this. It's easy to
- 17:31watch these videos to watch me to fall
- 17:33in love with me. I mean to get
- 17:34motivated, feel good in the moment, but
- 17:37then never actually do anything with it.
- 17:39You maybe even save the video or like
- 17:41clip a certain part of it, but then you
- 17:43never watch it again, right? Just like
- 17:45all of the Pinterest quotes on your
- 17:48Pinterest board or the workouts that you
- 17:50saved and had a binder of them in, you
- 17:52know, printed out in the binder and you
- 17:54never actually do them. But it sure
- 17:56feels good to print it out and put it in
- 17:58there. Sure feels good to save that
- 18:00quote to your camera roll. Sure feels
- 18:01good to watch this video. But I want you
- 18:04to do more than feel good in the moment.
- 18:05I want you to feel good for the rest of
- 18:07your life. And so I want to challenge
- 18:09you. Yes, you, the person watching this,
- 18:11to do a two week, 14-day weight loss
- 18:15challenge. I don't really like the word
- 18:16challenge, so prioritize you for two
- 18:19weeks in the following ways. The rules
- 18:22of the 2 week weight loss test. I want
- 18:25you to track your weight every day. You
- 18:26don't even have to look at it if you
- 18:28don't want to. You could use a Bluetooth
- 18:30scale like I use and just hop on there
- 18:32and then it'll upload to your phone. You
- 18:34can put some duct tape over the number.
- 18:36You don't have to look at it. I want you
- 18:37to do this because we want to look at
- 18:40the average over time and the day-to-day
- 18:42fluctuations and normalize that and not
- 18:44be emotionally attached to it. So, if
- 18:46you need to wait till the end of the two
- 18:48weeks to see this, that's okay. But
- 18:50don't get emotionally attached to the
- 18:51day-to-day fluctuations. For me, I
- 18:53weighed 173, I think, as of this
- 18:55morning. But yesterday morning I weighed
- 18:57169. Four lbs of fat gained overnight.
- 19:00No, I traveled yesterday so I was
- 19:02inflamed. Um, still have period stuff
- 19:05happening and I didn't eat amazing. Um,
- 19:08so there's probably some inflammation in
- 19:09my body from that too while I was
- 19:11traveling. And I didn't get as many
- 19:12steps as I normally do. I didn't drink
- 19:14as much water. So there you have it.
- 19:16It's not 4 lbs of fat. I would had to
- 19:18eat 16,000 some big number of calories
- 19:20and I didn't eat that many calories
- 19:21yesterday. Okay. So number one, track
- 19:23your weight daily. Number two, I want
- 19:25you to track weighing if you can.
- 19:28Everything that goes in your mouth hole,
- 19:31in your pie hole, in your cake hole,
- 19:32whatever, your ice cream hole. Track
- 19:34everything that you eat and drink.
- 19:36That's the bites, the licks, the tastes,
- 19:39everything. And if you have to track it,
- 19:42sometimes you won't even do it because
- 19:44you're like, I don't know how to track
- 19:45this. Or if you feel guilty about having
- 19:48to track it, then you probably shouldn't
- 19:49be eating it for your body's health. And
- 19:52so number two, track everything. If you
- 19:55can weigh it in grams and track it in My
- 19:57Fitness Pal, I'd love that for you. The
- 19:59third rule, eat in a 500 calorie
- 20:01deficit. If you don't know your calorie
- 20:03deficit, we have a free calorie
- 20:04calculator on our website and the link
- 20:06is probably down here somewhere in the
- 20:09description. So feel free to give that a
- 20:11try and then that will tell you your
- 20:13BMR. And then it'll also give you a
- 20:15calorie deficit. BMR being your basil
- 20:17metabolic rate or how many calories your
- 20:20body needs just to stay as it is. Keep
- 20:23the lights on depending on your activity
- 20:25level, some other factors. Uh it'll
- 20:27calculate your calorie deficit from
- 20:29there for you. Fourth thing that you're
- 20:30going to do, you're going to eat 100 g
- 20:33of protein on the daily. That doesn't
- 20:34mean you eat like 100 g of chicken
- 20:36because 100 g of chicken doesn't contain
- 20:38100 g of protein. It is a protein
- 20:40source, but it doesn't contain 100 g of
- 20:43protein. It's not pure protein. So, this
- 20:46is why you need to weigh and then track
- 20:48in My Fitness Pal everything that you're
- 20:49eating and then hit at least 100 grams
- 20:52of protein every day. Number five, I
- 20:54want you to hit 8 to 10,000 steps per
- 20:57day, every day for the 2 weeks. If
- 21:00you're nowhere near there, I understand.
- 21:02just increase it by like 20%. And that
- 21:04is going to increase your output 20%
- 21:08more, which is going to help you to
- 21:10create a bit more of a calorie deficit
- 21:12without having to decrease your food
- 21:15intake because be hangry.
- 21:17Sometimes the easier lever to pull in
- 21:20fat loss is the output versus reducing
- 21:22the input. And you don't even need to
- 21:24work out. If you are, great, but I don't
- 21:26need you to do any workouts. you can
- 21:28lose fat and feel better and have more
- 21:31energy just by changing these things
- 21:34that I mentioned and not even including
- 21:36workouts. So, after the two weeks is up,
- 21:38I want you to see what your weight was
- 21:40at, what it's at now, the changes that
- 21:43you made. And I guarantee you, you will
- 21:46see progress likely on the scale. And if
- 21:48not on the scale, your energy levels,
- 21:51your day-to-day like not being a mean
- 21:53person, I'll say, and you're going to
- 21:57feel better by taking the two weeks to
- 21:59prioritize yourself and your health. And
- 22:02if you can focus on eating more lean
- 22:04meats, fruits and veg, less processed
- 22:07stuff, and less like protein items,
- 22:10you're going to feel night and day
- 22:12different. And then what I want you to
- 22:14do is comment below with your results.
- 22:18Or if you really want a party, you can
- 22:20message me on Instagram and tell me all
- 22:21about it and I will celebrate with you.
- 22:24So, if you're in for the test, let me
- 22:26know in the comments and then watch this
- 22:28video on how to lose weight without
