This may come as a shock to you
But you can eat basically whatever you want and stay jacked
Let's get into it 👇

1. These are not "cheat meals" for me
I dislike that phrase because of the relationship it builds with you for foods
It programs your brain to think you are "cheating" or failing with your diet

Meals like this are not me cheating
They are me intentionally deviating from my 80% clean eating
These are my 20% meals - the 20% where I eat whatever the hell I want

I know going into the week that 20% of my meals (~3/wk) are going to be me eating whatever the hell I want
It's intentional. It's not cheating.

2. Eating 80/20
I mentioned the 80% and 20% earlier so let me elaborate what this is
I mentioned the 80% and 20% earlier so let me elaborate what this is
80% of the time my meals are clean as possible - High protein, whole foods, no seed oils or added sugars
20% of the time I eat like a normie (whatever I want)
20% of the time I eat like a normie (whatever I want)
This allows me freedom of selection for ~3 meals a week
I am EXTREMELY intentional with these
I don't sit at home and pound ice cream alone
I make it an event with friends or family

Why?
Because a massive part of food is experience
Going to watch a football game with my buddies? Cool, lets order pizza
Going on a date? Cool, lets get some ice cream

This is something I encourage all my clients to do
When you have these meals - make it oriented to a family/friend event or date
Don't just slam pizza on a casual Tuesday
Make it movie and pizza night with the kids

3. I train my core... A LOT
Every time I am in the gym (~4 days/wk) I train my core
Not just on leg day like some goofball programs have

Not just on leg day like some goofball programs have
I'm not big on doing 100s of crunches and situps
I prefer training my core through these movements
- Heavy Deadlifts
- Heavy Squats
- Overhead Work
- Carry Variations
- Banded Dead bugs
- Wrestlers Twists
- Palov Press
- Weighted Planks

Don't get me wrong
A good set of heavy decline situps, some standing abs or some hanging knee raises are badass too
I just do those less frequently than the above movements

DISCLAIMER: your abs won't show if you have too high of body fat %
I'm at about 12% in the picture above
your abs will really start to show once you get to 15% or less
If you have questions on this dm me

In summary
1. Stop thinking of these as "cheat meals"
2. Eat 80/20 and be intentional with your 20%
3. Train your core OFTEN
BONUS: *Drop your bf %*
