I asked these Hill Sprint Golden Girls a simple question the other day

(It was right after hill sprints, so they were tired)

The question was: “If you go from 2,500 calories to 1,500 calories, what do you cut?”

Some said “carbs” or “sugar”

But that’s... not entirely true

Here’s what you actually cut (watch the video)

Most women get this all wrong when they try to lose weight (and then wonder why they’re exhausted, losing muscle... and not losing weight)

=)

P.S. If after watching the video you’re thinking “but how?” - just remember... 4 bites of greek yoghurt is already 15 grams

Why not use plastic?

Because parchment paper is better (no microplastics)

Why press it both sides?

Because it evens out the thickness of the tortilla

What kind of flour are you using?

A combination of yellow and white organic corn masa

What else do you add?

Salt to taste, nothing else

What do you wrap it around?

Protein of course! (stupid question)

Why not use maseca?

Because it’s not organic and is overly processed

How to do cardio when you hate doing cardio

Two things I forgot to mention in this video:

1.) Take some caffeine beforehand (if it’s before 11am and Yerba mate or black coffee ideally)

2.) Do it with a group of cool people (but only cool people)

=)

P.S. Completely off-topic but I watched Rocky III for the first time in 20+ years, and the ‘beach scene’ with Adrian hits very different when you’re in your 40’s

P.P.S. All the Rocky movies are on Netflix but going away August 31st

8 sips!

Why 8 sips though?

Because at 8 you’re more likely to do it - it sounds like a magic number that’s going to give you optimal results

But there’s no such thing as perfectly optimal, so just drink your water

=)

P.S. You can do more than 8 sips - but NOT LESS

P.P.S. Not drinking water has to be the most American thing ever (and then complaining about how the scale isn’t moving)

P.P.P.S. Everybody’s great

I had a motivational speech prepared for this week’s Hill Sprints

Then we did Hill Sprints in beautiful Whittier and I completely forgot

Next week though - if you want to join, send me a DM

(it’s free)

=)

P.S. Some women who shall remain nameless said they were going to be there and then no-showed - Gladys C. and Miriam A. are NOT to be trusted!

P.P.S. If you pay attention to this video, we go slow in set 1... 60% in set 2... 70% in set 3... you don’t start going ALL out until set 4... do this properly and your set 4, 5, 6 will be hard - and that’s all you need (in and out in 20 minutes)

👇What is YOUR favorite restaurant?

Sitting back and ‘waiting for things to happen’ has never been a smart move

Unless you want to end up very old and too old to enjoy the things you wanted all along

=)

P.S. If Edson is not playing tonight I will eat my hat

So I got to California last Thursday night for a wedding

(for those who know - Andre & Paige got married and it was an amazing event)

So now I’m in SoCal, and I checked out some places to stay yesterday

In one of them, the guy showing it to me had kind of an accent,

So I asked him if he was perhaps from Bosnia

He said he was from Bulgaria

So I said “ah ok, I thought maybe you were from Bosnia because USA is about to play Bosnia in the round of 32”

Then he said “No sir I have much better things to do with my life then watching 22 men kick a soccer ball around a field”
..

Needless to say I won’t be moving there

=)

P.S. I made this video for you on why you should weigh yourself every day if weight loss is the goal

But you don’t have to do it all the time

Once you establish a healthy lifestyle where you can eyeball portions and your hunger hormones are actually regulated, daily weighing becomes optional

But if you’re still in the phase where you’re trying to reverse years of broken metabolism and metabolic adaptation, daily tracking gives you the feedback loop you need

Most people quit because they can’t see the progress

Daily weighing shows you the progress (even when the scale doesn’t move)

P.P.S. I have a feeling USA is going to demolish Bosnia

Not that Bosnia is a bad team (I like them) - but if the Star Spangled Banner goes hard and the helicopters fly over right after... USA gets wings and I think it might be a 4-1 score in the end (especially if Pulisic plays)
