Nutrition

Quality nutrition plays a large, large part in the results that our athletes and clients seek. It is easy to come to the gym and get your ass kicked. The hard part is being dedicated, and armed with a "quality" nutritional plan. I like to outline these simple rules.

1.) Have a protein source at least 5 times a day.

2.) Everytime you eat include either a fruit or a vegetable.

3.) If you are trying to gain weight, add a meal.

4.) If you are trying to lose weight, remove starches during dinner...if you are not an athlete, remove them during lunch as well.

5.) Repetition...eat similar things on a daily basis, and you will be able to fine tune your diet. If you constantly switch the fuel that runs your engine, how are you supposed to know what makes you perform at your very best?

6.) Include one cheat day each week, where you are allowed to enjoy foods that you otherwise tend to stay away from. You may also include one "floating" cheat meal. Just stay VERY dedicated the rest of the time.

Train hard and rest!
