![]() How to Beat Procrastination - Wait But Why. This is Part 2. You won’t get Part 2 if you haven’t read Part 1 yet. I’ve spent the last two weeks being. I’m still in a total battle with my own habits, but I have made some progress in the last few years, and I’m drawing my thoughts from what’s worked for me. This post was posted late, not only because it took me 2,0. I decided that Monday night was an urgent time to open Google Earth, hover a few hundred feet above the southern tip of India, and scroll all the way up India to the top of the country, to “get a better feel for India.” I have problems. Alright, so last week we dove into the everyday inner struggle of the procrastinator to examine the underlying psychology going on. But this week, when we’re actually trying to do something about it, we need to dig even deeper. Let’s begin by trying to unwrap the procrastinator’s psychology and see what’s really at the core of things: We know about the Instant Gratification Monkey (the part of your brain that makes you procrastinate) and his dominion over the Rational Decision Maker, but what’s really happening there? ![]() The procrastinator is in the bad habit, bordering on addiction, of letting the monkey win. He continues to have the intention to control the monkey, but he puts forth a hapless effort, using the same proven- not- to- work methods he’s used for years, and deep down, he knows the monkey will win. ![]() He vows to change, but the patterns just stay the same. So why would an otherwise capable person put forth such a lame and futile effort again and again? The answer is that he has incredibly low confidence when it comes to this part of his life, allowing himself to become enslaved by a self- defeating, self- fulfilling prophecy. Let’s call this self- fulfilling prophecy his Storyline. The procrastinator’s Storyline goes something like this: For the Have- To- Dos in my life, I’ll end up waiting until the last minute, panicking, and then either doing less than my best work or shutting down and not doing anything at all. For the Want- To- Dos in my life, let’s be honest. What do the right habits even look like, and where exactly will the procrastinator run into trouble? There are two components of being able to achieve things in a healthy and effective manner. Let’s start with the easy one: Planning. Procrastinators love planning, quite simply because planning does not involve. A procrastinator’s planning session leaves him with a doer’s nightmare: A big list of icky, daunting tasks and undertakings. A big list of vague and daunting things makes the Instant Gratification Monkey laugh. When you make a list like that, the monkey says, “Oh perfect, this is easy.” Even if your gullible conscious mind believes it intends to accomplish the items on that list in an efficient manner, the monkey knows that in your subconscious, you have no intention of doing so. Effective planning, on the other hand, sets you up for success. Its purpose is to do the exact opposite of everything in that sentence: Effective planning takes a. And the item that wins should be the one that means the most to you. If urgent items are involved, those will have to come first and should be knocked out as quickly as possible in order to make way for the important items (procrastinators love to use unimportant but urgent items as an excuse to forever put off the important ones). Effective planning makes an icky item un- icky: We all know what an icky item is. Most Common Text: Click on the icon to return to www.berro.com and to enjoy and benefit.

Let me start by saying that I DEEPER INSIGHTS INTO THE ILLUMINATI FORMULA. Important Explanation of Contents. An icky item is vague and murky, and you’re not really sure where you’d start, how you’d go about doing it, or where you’d get answers to your questions about it. So let’s say your dream is to make your own app, and you know that if you build a successful app you could quit your job and become a full- time developer. You also think that programming ability is the literacy of the 2. Learn how to code” the winning item on your list. ![]() Exciting, right? Well, no, because “Learn how to code” is an intensely icky item. It’ll never end up happening. To un- icky the item, you need to read, research, and ask questions to find out exactly how one learns how to code, the specific means necessary for each step along the way, and how long each one should take. Un- ickying a list item turns it from this: Into this: Effective planning turns a daunting item into a series of small, clear, manageable tasks: Icky combines with Daunting into an Instant Gratification Monkey steroid potion. And just because you un- icky an item, it doesn’t mean it’s still not horribly big and daunting. The key to de- dauntifying an item is to absorb this fact: A remarkable, glorious achievement is just what a long series of unremarkable, unglorious tasks looks like from far away. No one “builds a house.” They lay one brick again and again and again and the end result is a house. Procrastinators are great visionaries. A 4. 5- minute gym visit is the brick of getting in great shape. A 3. 0- minute practice session is the brick of becoming a great guitarist. The average day in a wannabe author’s week and a real author’s week looks almost the same. The real author writes a couple pages, laying a brick, and the wannabe author writes nothing. But a year later, the real author has a completed first draft of a book and the wannabe author has. ![]() But bricks do require scheduling. So the final step in planning is to make a Brick Timeline, which slots bricks into the calendar. The slots are non- negotiable and non- cancellable? ![]() The most important date is the first one. You can’t start learning to code “in November.” But you can start learning to code on November 2. Now you’re effectively planned. Only thing left is to do. They look at the bricks on their calendar and they think, “Great, this will be fun.” And that’s because when they picture the moment in the future when they sit down and knock out a work session, they picture things without. Procrastinators’ visions of future scenarios never seem to include the monkey. But when the actual moment arrives to begin that scheduled brick- laying, the procrastinator does what the procrastinator does best. Let’s examine this specific challenge of laying a single brick: So this diagram represents the challenge at hand anytime you take on a task, whether it’s making a Power. Point for work, going on a jog, working on a script, or anything else you do in your life. The Critical Entrance is where you go to officially start work on the task, the Dark Woods are the process of actually doing the work, and once you finish, you’re rewarded by ending up in The Happy Playground. You occasionally even end up super- engaged with what you’re working on and enter a state of Flow, where you’re so blissfully immersed in the task that you lose track of time. Those paths look something like this: Sounds pretty simple, right? Well unfortunately for procrastinators, they tend to miss out on both The Happy Playground and Flow. For example, here’s a procrastinator that never even gets started on the task he’s supposed to do, because he never makes it through the Critical Entrance. Instead, he spends hours wallowing in The Dark Playground, hating himself: Here’s a procrastinator who gets started on the task, but she can’t stay focused, and she keeps taking long breaks to play on the internet and make food. She doesn’t end up finishing the task: Here’s a procrastinator who couldn’t bring himself to get started, even though a work deadline was approaching, and he spent hours in The Dark Playground, knowing the looming deadline was drawing near and he was only making his life harder by not starting. Eventually, the deadline got so close, the Panic Monster suddenly came roaring into the room, freaking him out and causing him to fly through the task to hit the deadline. After he finishes, he feels decent because he accomplished something, but he’s also not that pleased because he knows he did an underwhelming job on the project because he had to rush so much, and he feels like he wasted most of his day procrastinating for no reason. This lands him in Mixed Feelings Park. So if you’re a procrastinator, let’s look at what you need to do to get on the right path, one that will leave you much happier. The first thing you. This means stopping whatever you’re doing when it’s time to begin the task, putting away all distractions, and getting started. It sounds simple, but this is the hardest part. This is where the Instant Gratification Monkey puts up his fiercest resistance: The monkey absolutely hates stopping something fun to start something hard, and this is where you need to be the strongest. If you can get started and force the monkey into the Dark Woods, you’ve broken a bit of his will. Of course, he’s not going to give up anytime soon. The Dark Woods is where you are when you’re working. It’s not a fun place to be, and the Instant Gratification Monkey wants nothing to do with it. To make things harder, the Dark Woods is surrounded by the Dark Playground, one of the monkey’s favorite places, and since he can see how close it is, he’ll try as hard as he can to leave the Dark Woods. There will also be times when you bump into a tree. They both suck to be in, but the big difference is the Dark Woods leads to happiness and the Dark Playground leads only to more misery. But the Instant Gratification Monkey isn’t logical and to him, the Dark Playground seems like much more fun. The good news is, if you can power through a bit of the Dark Woods, something funny happens. Making progress on a task produces positive feelings of accomplishment and raises your self- esteem. The monkey gains his strength off of low self- esteem, and when you feel a jolt of self- satisfaction, the monkey finds a High Self- Esteem Banana in his path. It doesn’t quell his resistance entirely, but it goes a long way to distracting him for a while, and you’ll find that the urge to procrastinate has diminished. Then, if you continue along, something magical happens. Make Your Own Homemade Greek Yogurt. Homemade organic Greek yogurt with Colorado honey and granola. I first had Greek yogurt when we visited Aunt Sara and Uncle Myron at their beautiful home on the Chesapeake Bay. Each morning Aunt Sara would lay out a big breakfast buffet with fresh melons, cereals, crispy bacon, eggs, juices, pastries, breads, jams, and all manner of tempting treats. One morning she put out a big container of Greek yogurt, and I was completely hooked at the first bite. Greek yogurt compares to regular yogurt like home- grown tomatoes compare to February tomatoes in the grocery store—about a kazillion times better. Greek yogurt—even the nonfat version—is thick, rich and creamy. However, it also costs substantially more than regular yogurt—a 3. FAGE is $7. 4. 9 at my grocery store, and it’s not organic—which is why I decided to try and make some myself here at the urban homestead. I spent $2. 6. 9 for organic milk and 9. I already had cheesecloth) so I saved over 5. When I make the next batch, I’ll use 2 tablespoons of the yogurt from this batch for the starter so the cost will be even less. This project was one of my most successful culinary experiments, and if you’re a fan of Greek yogurt you’re going to love making your own. After some online research, I mostly followed the basic yogurt recipe in the Joy of Cooking cookbook. I started a batch before we went to bed last night, and awoke to fresh yogurt; it was almost as exciting as Christmas morning! Here’s what you need to make 3. Greek yogurt: 1/2 gallon milk* – fat content of your choice (I used organic 1% milk)2 to 3 tablespoons plain prepared yogurt (make sure it contains live, active cultures)cooking thermometercheesecloth to fit 4 layers in a large strainer*I prefer to prepare this recipe with organic milk, which is produced without any synthetic chemicals, hormones or antibiotics. It’s often on sale there at my store, so the cost savings is even greater. If you’re using non- organic milk, for best results try to use regular pasteurized milk rather than ultra- pasteurized. To begin, pour all but 2 tablespoons milk into a double boiler or heavy- bottomed pan and turn the heat to medium. If using a double boiler, cover the milk. If the pot is directly on the burner, stir it and watch it very, very carefully so you don’t burn the bottom. Heat the milk to 1. F. It helps to have a candy thermometer so you can carefully watch the temperature, but when I went to fetch mine I remembered that the kids broke it the last time they made frosting so I used an instant- read thermometer instead. Heat the milk to just 1. F. Immediately remove the pot from the stove and carefully pour the hot milk into a glass or ceramic bowl or casserole dish. Put the dish on a cooling rack uncovered, and let the milk cool to between 1. F. In our kitchen, this took about 5. If your oven doesn’t have that setting, turn it to 1. F. Combine the 2 tablespoons of milk you saved with the prepared yogurt in a small bowl and reserve. Resist the temptation to add more than 3 tablespoons yogurt. According to the Joy of Cooking, “you may wonder why so little starter is used and think that a little more will give a better result. The bacillus, if crowded, gives a sour, watery product.” I used 2 1/2 level tablespoons of prepared yogurt and the resulting yogurt was thick, mild and creamy. Combine the yogurt starter with 2 tablespoons milk. Once the milk has cooled to between 1. Just the light from the oven should keep the dish warm enough to enable the yogurt- making process. Put the towel- covered dish in the oven, making sure that the towel isn’t near the oven lightbulb, and leave the oven light on. If your oven light doesn’t emit any heat, you can alternately put the towel- covered dish on a heating pad set on “low,” or put it in a cooler with a snug- fitting lid and several jars of hot water to maintain the heat. Leave the yogurt undisturbed for 7 or 8 hours, or overnight. In the morning, carefully take the dish out, unwrap it and remove the lid, and check to see whether the milk has turned to yogurt. After eight hours, this is how our yogurt looks: The milk miraculously turned to yogurt overnight! If your batch isn’t quite thickened, return it to the oven and check on it again in an hour. Once the yogurt is sufficiently thickened, you can stop at this stage if you want regular yogurt. Just stir the mixture and refrigerate it; you may need to pour off a little of the watery liquid. Don’t forget to turn off the light in your oven! For creamy Greek yogurt, refrigerate the yogurt for at least three hours to allow it to completely cool and thicken. Line a large strainer with four layers of damp cheesecloth and find a bowl that the strainer will fit inside: Put the strainer inside the bowl and pour the yogurt in; refrigerate for one hour. Pour out the liquid that has accumulated in the bottom of the bowl; this is the whey – that’s right, the very same delicacy Little Miss Muffet ate while she was sitting on her tuffet. You can save the whey and use it for cooking (a common use is as a liquid in homemade bread recipes) or discard it. Return the bowl to the refrigerator for one more hour, strain the liquid again and the yogurt should now look thick and creamy – like this: Fresh Greek yogurt. Spoon it into a container and refrigerate for up to six days. I find most store- bought plain yogurt is too tart for my liking so I usually buy the vanilla- flavored variety, but you’ll discover that this homemade yogurt has a very mild flavor. You can enjoy it as is, add some fresh fruit or jam, or do what we did and serve it with raw wildflower honey (we love Colorado- based Madhava Honey) and homemade granola. Remember to save a couple of tablespoons of your homemade yogurt so you can use it as starter for the next batch! After many successful batches of homemade yogurt, I recently had a big FAIL. The only thing I’d done differently was to use our smaller, upper oven to incubate the yogurt instead of the lower oven I usually use. When I pulled the yogurt out the next morning it hadn’t thickened at all; it was simply a big bowl of warm milk. I was so disappointed! At first I suspected the milk, because I’d used the big- name brand of organic milk that is known to be ultra- pasteurized. But when I measured the temperature of the milk, it was 1. I decided to experiment with the failed batch, and let the milk cool back to 1. Then I added 2 more tablespoons of yogurt mixed with 1 tablespoon of milk. In fact, it was one of the thickest batches I’ve ever made. The consistency was a little sticky, but after I strained the yogurt it was fine. So if you ever have a batch that fails, you may want to try again and try to find the right spot where you can keep the yogurt at that ideal temperature of about 1. F. If your oven light doesn’t emit any heat, you can alternately put the towel- covered dish on a heating pad set on “low,” or put it in a cooler with a snug- fitting lid and several jars of hot water to maintain the heat.

An embryo is the developing offspring during the first eight weeks following conception, after which, the term fetus is used until birth. The first trimester is from week one through 1. Conception is when the sperm fertilizes the egg. ![]() The fertilized egg then travels down the fallopian tube and attaches to the inside of the uterus, where it begins to form the fetus and placenta. Around the middle of the second trimester, movement of the fetus may be felt. At 2. 8 weeks, more than 9. The third trimester is from 2. After 4. 1 weeks, it is known as post term.

Common causes include maternal bleeding, complications of abortion, high blood pressure of pregnancy, maternal sepsis, and obstructed labor. Half of unplanned pregnancies are aborted. ![]() ![]() Twins and other multiple births are counted as one pregnancy and birth. A woman who has never been pregnant is referred to as a nulligravida. A woman who is (or has been only) pregnant for the first time is referred to as a primigravida. In- progress pregnancies, abortions, miscarriages and/ or stillbirths account for parity values being less than the gravida number. In the case of twins, triplets, etc., gravida number and parity value are increased by one only. Women who have never carried a pregnancy achieving more than 2. This is in contrast to pregnancy complications. Sometimes a symptom that is considered a discomfort can be considered a complication when it is more severe. For example, nausea can be a discomfort (morning sickness), but if, in combination with significant vomiting, it causes water- electrolyte imbalance it is a complication (hyperemesis gravidarum). Common symptoms and discomforts of pregnancy include: Tiredness. Constipation. Pelvic girdle pain. Back pain. Braxton Hicks contractions. Occasional, irregular, and often painless contractions that occur several times per day. Edema (swelling). ![]() Common complaint in advancing pregnancy. Caused by compression of the inferior vena cava (IVC) and pelvic veins by the uterus leads to increased hydrostatic pressure in lower extremities. Increased urinary frequency. A common complaint referred by the gravida, caused by increased intravascular volume, elevated GFR (glomerular filtration rate), and compression of the bladder by the expanding uterus. Urinary tract infection. Common complaint caused by relaxation of the venous smooth muscle and increased intravascular pressure. Haemorrhoids (piles). Swollen veins at or inside the anal area. Caused by impaired venous return, straining associated with constipation, or increased intra- abdominal pressure in later pregnancy. Using this date, the resulting fetal age is called the gestational age. This choice was a result of inability to discern the point in time when the actual conception happened. In in vitro fertilisation, gestational age is calculated by days from oocyte retrieval + 1. ![]() Fertilization is the event where the egg cell fuses with the male gamete, spermatozoon. After the point of fertilization, the fused product of the female and male gamete is referred to as a zygote or fertilized egg. The fusion of male and female gametes usually occurs following the act of sexual intercourse. Fertilization can also occur by assisted reproductive technology such as artificial insemination and in vitro fertilisation. Fertilization (conception) is sometimes used as the initiation of pregnancy, with the derived age being termed fertilization age. Fertilization usually occurs about two weeks before the next expected menstrual period. A third point in time is also considered by some people to be the true beginning of a pregnancy: This is time of implantation, when the future fetus attaches to the lining of the uterus. This is about a week to ten days after fertilization. The fertilized egg, known as a zygote, then moves toward the uterus, a journey that can take up to a week to complete. Cell division begins approximately 2. ![]() Cell division continues at a rapid rate and the cells then develop into what is known as a blastocyst. The blastocyst arrives at the uterus and attaches to the uterine wall, a process known as implantation. The development of the mass of cells that will become the infant is called embryogenesis during the first approximately ten weeks of gestation. ![]() How your baby is growing: A complete guide to the development of the fetus at 17 weeks. During this time, cells begin to differentiate into the various body systems. The basic outlines of the organ, body, and nervous systems are established. At 37 weeks pregnant, your baby is working his facial muscles by practicing pouts, frowns and grimaces. His toenails could now reach the very end of his toes. Understand how weight loss usually progresses. Most people lose weight very quickly in the first several weeks of a new regimen. While some of this weight is actual. By the end of the embryonic stage, the beginnings of features such as fingers, eyes, mouth, and ears become visible. Also during this time, there is development of structures important to the support of the embryo, including the placenta and umbilical cord. The placenta connects the developing embryo to the uterine wall to allow nutrient uptake, waste elimination, and gas exchange via the mother's blood supply. The umbilical cord is the connecting cord from the embryo or fetus to the placenta. After about ten weeks of gestational age, the embryo becomes known as a fetus. At the beginning of the fetal stage, the risk of miscarriage decreases sharply. Sex organs begin to appear during the third month of gestation. The fetus continues to grow in both weight and length, although the majority of the physical growth occurs in the last weeks of pregnancy. Electrical brain activity is first detected between the fifth and sixth week of gestation. It is considered primitive neural activity rather than the beginning of conscious thought.

Breast changes as seen during pregnancy. The areolae are larger and darker. During pregnancy, the woman undergoes many physiological changes, which are entirely normal, including cardiovascular, hematologic, metabolic, renal, and respiratory changes. Increases in blood sugar, breathing, and cardiac output are all required. Levels of progesterone and oestrogens rise continually throughout pregnancy, suppressing the hypothalamic axis and therefore also the menstrual cycle. The fetus is genetically different from the woman and can be viewed as an unusually successful allograft. Many symptoms and discomforts of pregnancy like nausea and tender breasts appear in the first trimester. Although the breasts have been developing internally since the beginning of the pregnancy, most of the visible changes appear after this point. Weeks 1. 3 to 2. 8 of the pregnancy are called the second trimester. Most women feel more energized in this period, and begin to put on weight as the symptoms of morning sickness subside and eventually fade away. The uterus, the muscular organ that holds the developing fetus, can expand up to 2. Although the fetus begins to move during the first trimester, it is not until the second trimester that movement, often referred to as . This typically happens in the fourth month, more specifically in the 2. It is common for some women not to feel the fetus move until much later. During the second trimester, most women begin to wear maternity clothes. Third trimester. The uterus expands making up a larger and larger portion of the woman's abdomen. At left anterior view with months labeled, at right lateral view labeling the last 4 weeks. During the final stages of gestation before childbirth the fetus and uterus will drop to a lower position. Final weight gain takes place, which is the most weight gain throughout the pregnancy. The woman's abdomen will transform in shape as it drops due to the fetus turning in a downward position ready for birth. During the second trimester, the woman's abdomen would have been upright, whereas in the third trimester it will drop down low. The fetus moves regularly, and is felt by the woman. Fetal movement can become strong and be disruptive to the woman. The woman's navel will sometimes become convex, . It also severely reduces bladder capacity, and increases pressure on the pelvic floor and the rectum. It is also during the third trimester that maternal activity and sleep positions may affect fetal development due to restricted blood flow. For instance, the enlarged uterus may impede blood flow by compressing the vena cava when lying flat, which is relieved by lying on the left side. In order to have a standard reference point, the normal pregnancy duration is assumed by medical professionals to be 2. The best method of determining gestational age is ultrasound during the first trimester of pregnancy. This is typically accurate within seven days. This calculates the expected due date from the first day of the last normal menstrual period (LMP or LNMP) regardless of factors known to make this inaccurate, such as a shorter or longer menstrual cycle length. Pregnancy most commonly lasts for 4. LNMP- based method, assuming that the woman has a predictable menstrual cycle length of close to 2. The average time to birth has been estimated to be 2. A decision may be made to induce labour if a fetus is perceived to be overdue. Furthermore, if ultrasound dating predicts a later due date than LMP, this might indicate slowed fetal growth and require closer review. The stage of pregnancy defined as the beginning of legal fetal viability varies around the world. It sometimes incorporates weight as well as gestational age. While childbirth is widely experienced as painful, some women do report painless labours, while others find that concentrating on the birth helps to quicken labour and lessen the sensations. ![]() Me - 2. 3and.

Colette Heimowitz, Kardashian’s personal nutritionist and vice president of education and nutrition at Atkins, revealed the weight loss secrets and diet tips behind the reality star’s enviable body.“She gets the carbohydrate control mentality.

She’s been doing this a long time. She lost 6. 0 pounds with the first pregnancy, 7.

When you don’t have something structured in place, it’s all too easy to just randomly grab a handful of something as you walk by- if you have a plan, even if it’s just for that one day, it can easier to pass up whatever item it is if it’s not within the plan for the day. That is in part why Phase 2 is often easier for people than Phase 3 of the h. CG diet, because it is so structured. The rules are clear, and you are guaranteed if you follow them, you will lose weight. ![]() Coming off P2, P3 can feel very unstructured in contract.

Basically we’ve been mislead by the media and newsstand nutrition magazines to think that we have to eat 6 small meals a day or our body will go into starvation mode, we won’t lose weight, or that not eating at any given time means we have an eating disorders.

Motivation? I can help you stay on track. Join hcg. Chica's Email Tribe. Yup, I want this! The Bodybuilding Diet: How I fixed my health, and became The Hulk. In early 2. 01. 2 I started following a strict bodybuilding diet, which involves eating seven times a day, and obsessively measuring out every meal to meet a predetermined ratio of fat, protein, and carbohydrates. To commit to this food plan, I usually have to pack my meals in tupperware and bring them with me to parties and other social outings. This means I’m often caught scarfing chicken between conversations, and pulling out my food scale at awkward places. Although I try to be discreet, I usually end up having to explain my obsessive behavior to those around me. ![]() The question I get asked most often is “Why are you doing this?”. My standard response used to be “To look like Arnold“, but I’ve been asked this question enough times where I’ve since given it some serious thought. It first started with a health checkup in early 2. Since I have a habit of working out regularly, and generally stay away from junk food, I was surprised when my doctor told me I had high cholesterol. My total cholesterol was at 2. LDL cholesterol was at 1. People don’t normally get heart attacks until they’re 6. ![]() Woman Suffering from Endometriosis Pens An Emotional Love Letter to Her Husband.

You hear a lot about how to lose weight. Not so many of us are trying to gain it. This article would be so much cooler if it had a headline like, Blast Your Benchpress into Orbit with Ryan Kennelly by Sean "Seanzilla" Katterle: An interview with 2003 Arnold Classic Benchpress Champion & the 1st man to. January, 2. 01. 1Around the time when I got my cholesterol checked. I was in good shape, and worked out 3- 5 times a week. Now this is the part where I’m supposed to tell you I went home and immediately started my bodybuilding diet. But like most people who are aware of a health problem, I made no effort to change my habits. That summer, I even traveled Europe for 5 months and ate all sorts of cochinillo, schweinshaxe, and foi gras, cholesterol be damned. By the end of the trip, I still managed to lose 1. I guess that’s what happens when you spend your days lounging in Parsian parks nibbling on macaroons instead of pumping iron. ![]() ![]() Looks like my ancestors gypped me on the cholesterol gene, but gave me some kind of freakish metabolism instead. By the time I got back to the U. S., I was ready to get back in shape, so I did what I always do when I’m trying to bulk up – I started lifting weights 5 times a week, and eating a gratuitous amount of food in order to gain as much muscle as possible. This method sounds terrible to me now, but in college it worked wonders. I could devour all sorts of cookies, steaks, and hamburgers, and still build muscle while remaining lean. But in my older age, it was clear that my method wasn’t working as well as it used to. Although I was building muscle, I was also starting to develop a gut. ![]() Yup, this was officially my first sign of aging. Here’s me in Germany, at 1. March, 2. 01. 2Before I started the bodybuilding diet, I bulked back up to around 2. I wanted. So I turned to the internet for advice. Anyone who has ever tried searching for diet tips online will probably agree with me that it’s about as fun as filing your taxes. You have to trudge through hundreds of contradictory nutritional advice (milk is bad for you, milk is the perfect drink, avoid egg yolks, egg yolks are the best part), dodge gimmicky supplement ads (“Effortless six- pack abs in 2 weeks, or your money back!”), and decode vague health information like “Detox your body with a cabbage cleansing to restore your inner spiritual and emotional balance”. Huh? I wasn’t looking for a flash diet or a quick fix. I wanted to do it the hard way. The way that works. It turns out all the more credible sounding articles were bodybuilding related. Unlike articles marketed towards yoga girls and beach body types, bodybuilding articles tend to dive deeper into the biochemistry of food, and focus on the overall diet, rather than focusing on a specific “healthy food” . I’m still waiting for the day a frozen yogurt cleanse becomes fashionable, triggering a new generation of yoga girls with uncontrollable gas. The more I read about bodybuilding, the more there was to learn. I soon found myself reading all about the glycemic index, the role of B vitamins, the effects of omega- 3 on jaw development, formulas for calculating basal metabolic rate, etc. I picked up copies of books like Strength Training Anatomy, Protein Power, and Arnold Schwarzenegger’s The New Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding, where I learned how to properly execute a back double biceps pose, and learned what a protein shake in the 1. It was all fascinating to me. My nightly entertainment quickly degenerated into watching meatheads on You. Tube lift heavy objects while grunting loudly. I was so into my videos that one night my girlfriend had to subtly suggest we watch something less testosterone- charged, like The Notebook. We compromised and ended up watching Food, Inc. Looking back, it’s kind of amusing that I became so fascinated with a hobby such as bodybuilding. Although I’ve lifted weights for years, I never thought I’d have anything in common with bodybuilder types. But actually its appeal (at least to me) has a lot in common with gaming and general nerd stuff. Watching your body change is like leveling up, and pre- packed meals are like health potions. Following a consistent diet plan allows me to do things like A/B test foods and their effectiveness. Tracking metrics like meal timing and proportions means I know exactly what day and time I will run out of chicken in my fridge. Bodybuilders are really just body hackers. Okay maybe I’m stretching it a bit. But this is how I justify my quick downward spiral into meathead land. What to Eat. One thing I noticed right off when doing my research is that all bodybuilders eat the same few foods. If you go over to bodybuilding. At first it was a weird concept to go from eating whatever I wanted to eating only 1. But actually in an industry filled with noise and drowning in misinformation, this stroke of clarity was what I needed to get started. Here are the foods that all bodybuilders eat over and over: Protein sources: 9. Tilapia. Egg whites. Whey protein. Salmon (this is both a protein and fat source)Carb sources: Brown rice. Sweet potatoes. Oatmeal. Ezekial bread. Fat sources: Almonds. Avocados. Fish oil. Flaxseed oil. Vegetables: Broccoli. Spinach. Asparagus. Kale. There are a thousand reasons why these few foods are popular among bodybuilders, so I’ll mostly summarize. Protein. Chicken breast and tilapia are going to be your main sources of protein because they are lean, easy to cook, and not too expensive. You could also try turkey, halibut, or other lean fishes (sole fish, catfish, tuna, etc.), but I find that each have their respective disadvantages. Turkey, if not ground, can be very tough. Halibut is far more expensive than tilapia. Sole fish is generally very fishy, and flaky once cooked. Also since you’ll be mass producing this food, you’ll want something that will last at least a week in your fridge. Just from my anecdotal experience, chicken and tilapia pass the seven- day- old taste test better than other types of meat. Whey protein (which is extracted from cow milk) will also be a staple. It’s popular among bodybuilders because it’s quickly absorbed by the body, making it perfect in a post- workout shake when the body is in an optimal state the utilize the protein. I also recommend having it in the morning as a breakfast shake if you’re too lazy to make eggs. Before bed, I recommend casein protein (thicker and slower absorbing, also extracted from cow milk). Egg whites are also a great source of protein. It has the highest bioavailability of any protein source, which means the body can utilize more of it due to its balance of amino acids. As a comparison, beef is only 8. The main disadvantage of egg whites is that it naturally contains a lot of sodium. Since I don’t add salt to my food, I was surprised when I first calculated my sodium intake, which was on the high side due to egg whites. For vegetarians, vegans, or those watching their cholesterol (fish, lean chicken, and whey protein all contain cholesterol!), I recommend Nutiva Organic Hemp Protein or Life’s Basics Plant Protein (the unsweetened version is better). Hemp protein (extracted from ground up hemp seeds) is amazing stuff – it’s a complete protein, it’s high in fiber, and it’s rich in Omega 3- 6- 9 essential fatty acids. At first when I did my research, I was set on finding a highly isolated plant- based protein, something like Manitoba Harvest Hemp Pro 7. But the fiber and essential fats in hemp is part of what makes it so great, so I actually think the isolated versions take away many of its advantages. If you’re not a vegan, I recommend mixing the hemp protein with whey protein for better bioavailability (hemp is “complete” but still low on certain amino acids, like lysine). If you’re a vegan, I recommend just using Life’s Basics Plant Protein (the pea and brown rice protein fill in the gaps in hemp’s amino acid profile). I use hemp protein twice a day – once in the morning mixed in with whey, and again before bed, mixed in with casein. Beef – I do not recommend eating beef or any kind of red meat. I love a 1. 2 oz ribeye just as much as anyone else, but after looking up the nutrition facts I’ve concluded that you should only eat it on rare occasions, if ever. It has far more cholesterol and saturated fat than chicken or fish, and the visible fat is harder to isolate and remove. If you do eat beef, I recommend it be organic and grass- fed, which is leaner, lower in cholesterol, and higher in omega- 3 than corn- fed beef. The same is true for salmon – if you have the budget for it, I recommend buying wild caught salmon, which contains more omega- 3 and less cholesterol than farm- raised salmon. Here’s a pdf of the leanest cuts of beef. Carbs. Controlling your carb intake is the most important factor in whether you gain muscle or lose fat. Usually the only difference between a gaining diet versus a cutting diet is the increased carb consumption. The best carb sources are whole grain, unprocessed, and high in fiber. Refined carb sources like white rice, pasta, and white bread are not optimal because they have a higher glycemic index (GI) and lower fiber content . Optimal Protein Intake for Bodybuilders. Protein. It’s every bodybuilder’s favorite macronutrient and for good reason. Protein is extremely essential, super satiating and amazingly anabolic. Strangely, very few people think it’s a bit too accidental that the optimal amount of protein your body can assimilate in a day is exactly 1g/lb. Of course, I know you read my articles for their scientific merit, so let’s look at the literature on the effects of daily protein intake to find out if 1g/lb really is the optimal amount of protein intake for maximum muscle gains. Studies on the optimal protein intake. All values in the bullet point list below are expressed as grams of protein per pound of body weight per day. All of these studies controlled for energy intake, either based on individual requirements or by setting energy intake to be equal in all experimental conditions, so that only the proportion of protein in the diet varied between groups. If the studies were based on unreliable methods such as nitrogen balance, a marker of lean body mass changes, I only included them if they controlled for sweating and dietary adaptation periods. Protein oxidation did increase in the high protein group, indicating a nutrient overload. The authors suggested that 0. Based on nitrogen balance data, the authors recommended 0. This recommendation often includes a double 9. As such, this is already overdoing it and consuming 1g/lb . The picture below summarizes the literature. As you can see, 1. But I train harder! If you still think you need more than 0. Well, Tarnopolsky et al. Resistance training causes both breakdown and synthesis to increase, normally with a favorable balance towards synthesis. As you progress in your training, the body becomes more efficient at stopping the breakdown of protein resulting from training. Since less protein now needs to be replenished, this increase in nitrogen retention means less protein is subsequently needed for optimal growth. Secondly, the more advanced you are, the less protein synthesis increases after training. As you become more muscular and you get closer to your genetic limit, less muscle is built after training. This is very intuitive. The slower you can build muscle, the less protein is needed for optimal growth. It wouldn’t make any sense if the body needed more protein to build less muscle, especially considering that the body becomes more efficient at metabolizing protein. But what about when cutting? A final objection that is often heard is that these values may be true during bulking or maintenance periods, but cutting requires more protein to maintain muscle mass. The researchers took a group of endurance trained subjects and had them consume either 0. They also added a thousand calories worth of training on top of their regular exercise. So these guys were literally running on a 1. Talk about a catabolic state. However, the protein intake of 0. Nitrogen balance, whole- body protein turnover and protein synthesis remained unchanged. A further review of the literature on the optimal protein intake in a deficit can be found in this article of the research on protein by Eric Helms. Also, the supposed difference in nitrogen sparing effects of carbs and fat are negligible (Mc. Cargar et al. 1. 98. Millward, 1. 98. 9). Neither actually spares protein though. Only protein spares protein. I think the protein sparing idea came from a wrong interpretation of the nitrogen balance literature showing more lean mass is lost in more severe caloric deficits. A simple explanation for that finding is that the more total mass you lose, the more lean mass you lose. No surprises there. As such, there is simply no empirically substantiated reason to think we need more than 0. If anything, you could reason the body should be able to use more protein during bulking periods, because more muscle is being built and a lot of other nutrients are ingested that may enable more protein to be used. The only people that may actually need more protein than 0. Androgen or growth hormone users definitely fall into this category, but I don’t exclude the possibility that some adolescents do too. If you reach peak testosterone production while still growing (in height), your unusually high levels of growth hormone and testosterone might increase your protein requirements. There’s no research to support it. Those rare individuals with amazing bodybuilding genetics could also qualify, but unless your father happens to be a silverback gorilla, you are most likely just like other humans in this regard. The 1g/lb Myth’s Origin. Why is it then that everybody says you need to consume 1g/lb? Aside from the facts that there don’t need to be any good reasons for why people believe in a myth, that myths tend to perpetuate themselves via conformism and tradition, and that the fitness industry is flooded with myths, here are some plausible grounds for the . Steroids enable you to assimilate far more protein than you’d normally could. There are so many studies showing protein is good for you, it’s hard not to think more of it is even better. There are actually several industry- sponsored studies showing absolutely miraculous benefits of consuming more protein (see for example the studies by Cribb). The excess will simply be used as energy. However, protein sources tend to be expensive compared to other energy sources and variety generally beats monotony with regards to your health, so satiety and food preferences are the only reasons I can think of why somebody would want to overconsume protein. Take Home Messages. This already includes a mark- up, since most research finds no more benefits after 0. Have a look at the Bayesian PT Course. Click here to see the scientific references.

The foods naturally highest in phosphate, relative to calcium, are cereals, legumes, meats, and fish. Many prepared foods contain added phosphate. Foods with a higher, safer ratio of calcium to phosphate are leaves, such as kale, turnip greens, and beet greens, and many fruits, milk, and cheese. Coffee, besides being a good source of magnesium, is probably helpful for lowering phosphate, by its antagonism to adenosine (Coulson, et al., 1.

Low calorie diets are short term, high risk weight loss solutions which are quickly reversed when dieters go back to their old habits. The weight loss is essentially due to starvation. This process slows down your metabolism, meaning that weight loss in the long term is made much more difficult. The initial weight loss which may have been dramatic, is, for the most part, water loss and degeneration of muscle health, not fat loss.
