👆My cut last year.
I’ve done some market research recently and one of the things that came back was to create more content around healthy habits.
Here are 5 habits that will actually help you to build your physique this year
FILM YOUR SETS
What are you ACTUALLY doing when you train? What you thought was good form might look sh*tty on camera. It might hurt your ego to lower the weight so you can reset the form, but it will help your physique in the long run.
TRACK YOUR LIFTS (LOG BOOK PROGRESSION)
The biggest key to my strength gain in the last year has been tracking the reps and sets of every exercise.
With arms I used to tag them in at the end of a session without tracking them and they didn’t grow. Now I track everything.
TRACK EVERYTHING
Steps, Sleep, protein intake, calories — you can overdue this stuff. What I really mean is get into the habit of tracking variables that are relevant to your progress. In my opinion it’s worth really knowing what is going into your body.
If gaining excess body fat is your sticking point, learn to track calories.
If holding onto muscle tissue while you diet is your sticking point, learn to accurately track protein.
STOP SNACKING
The worst mistake I made after my cut last year was getting into a snacking habit. I played havoc with my blood sugar and felt hungry all the time.
Eating 2-4 times a day will work best for most. You’ll have more predictable energy and be better at stabilising your blood sugar than if you are constantly spiking it by snacking.
PROTEIN WITH EVERY MEAL
Protein is the primary building block of muscle. Making sure it's included with each meal in some form will help you get regular protein feedings into your bloodstream to keep protein synthesis (the process in which your cells make proteins) occurring on a regular basis.
All these variables are taught and can be implemented through my online coaching.
