Your mom lied to you. Breakfast is not the most important meal of the day. And here's 7 other pieces of health advice your mom probably lied about: 1. Veggies do not make you "big & strong". They contain very little protein which is the building block of muscle.

2. Eating after 8PM doesn't make fat. Too many calories make you fat. 3. Doing sit-ups won't get you a 6-pack. Get under 15% bodyfat to get a 6-pack. 4. Don't cut out carbs. 80% of the time eat whole foods. 20% of the time eat whatever you want. Sustainability = success.

4. Protein powder is not steroids. It's just protein, nothing fancy, but a great supplement to build muscle. 5. There is no such thing as the "fat gene". Epigenetics has proven that your behaviors alter the expression of your genes (meaning 99% can overcome bad genetics).

7. You don't need discipline. I was STUCK in this cycle for what seemed like forever. Lose 5lbs... gain 10lbs. Diet for 2 weeks... eat junk for 2 months. On my game... off the wagon. Sound familiar? The biggest thing we must figure out is how do we make our habits stick?

In my studies, I found a part of the brain called the Reticular Activating System (RAS). It's kinda like a camera lens. You know when you're trying to take a picture but the camera is focused on the wrong spot? That's what is happening with your RAS... t.co/iRPmllXGcm

It's focused on junk food, alcohol, netflix, etc. And your actions reflect that. Once you fix this - you'll change your habits at a subconscious level (default actions). This is the GLUE that makes the fat loss stick.

P.S. I'm looking for a few more men who want to work closely together to get LEAN and be CONFIDENT in their bodies. (Using the R.A.S. method) DM me "Body" and I'll get you all the details. DM me "Body"👇 t.co/IhTjnHaTIe
