My Workout Philosophy View My Full Workout Philosophy
I constantly switch it up
I never really stick to the same workout every week. I hit every body part, but I'll switch up the exersizes, sets, reps. Some days I'll do drop sets, double drops, burnouts, low reps, just whatever I feel like. I make sure to hit each part of the muscle I'm working, but in the end I just aim for a wicked pump, and that's where I see the most progress.
My Nutrition Philosophy View My Full Nutrition Philosophy
This is my most advanced and current meal plan.
When I started trying to lose weight about 18 months ago I didn't know much about nutrition. I knew what protein and carbs were, and I knew that protein helps build muscle and carbs are a good sources for energy. As time has gone by I've learned more and more, but it wasn't until I started trying to lean down and started using the 12 week trainer that I really took my nutrition seriously. I stopped eating fast-digesting carbs all the time and I started to eat slow-digesting carbs. As soon as I started taking my nutrition seriously everything came together. I started getting the results I want, and I felt better overall and started seeing what I wanted to see. Here's my usual Meal plan:
Meal 1:
4 egg whites/ 2 whole eggs
1/2 cup uncooked oatmeal
Green tea/L-carnitine/multivitamin
Meal 2:
1 Scoop Myofusion/Generic Whey/Hydro Whey (Whatever I have with me or if I'm about to work out determines what protein I choose)
Meal 3:
Sirloin Patty (85-90% lean)
1/4 brown rice
Meal 4:
1 Scoop protein powder again
Meal 5: Pre workout
2 oz. Uncooked whole grain penne
6 oz. Grilled chicken
1/2 cup assorted veggies (I work at a Papa Murphy's so I just throw in whatever I feel like, usually onions, olives and mushrooms)
1.5 tbs Olive Oil
Meal 6: Post Workout
2 Scoops Hydro Whey
1 Slice white bread
The biggest thing I've done to help me lose weight is using an app on my phone. MyFitnessPal has been the best one I've used because it sets the amount of calories you should eat depending on how much you want to lose/gain per week. It also tracks all of your macros and micronutrients, so I can make sure that I'm not eating too much.

I'm not really into all of the, "New super concentrated formula Aminobolic Hypervasodiolating musclar energizers". I stick to the basics.

My Motivation Philosophy View My Full Motivation Philosophy
I like to use controlled aggression.
My motivation comes from everywhere. It comes from people saying, "man you've really beefed up" or as my recruiter said when he met me, "Jesus Christ, do you eat small babies?" Things like that show me that I am reaching my goals and I have made changes to my body. But my motivation also comes from other places. Patience has not always been my stong point, but now that I've started lifting I can just save all of my anger and frustration and pull it out when I need it. I like to use controlled aggression. Where you take all of your agression and apply it to a task. I can take all the frustrations of a day and I can channel it all into my lifts and push myself harder and harder.
