Seed Oil: Majoring in the Minor

Why does Paul Saladino have his shirt off at the grocery store? It’s been the consensus of nutritionists for decades that most of what you eat should be coming from single-ingredient foods, so at least he and I can agree on that. You should be doing your best to avoid foods with nutrition labels on them for a plethora of reasons, probably the least of which is seed oil.

Americans are suffering from obesity at an astounding rate. This is because of our sedentary lifestyles and our massive portion sizes. I would absolutely agree that most of your food should be coming from protein and fruits, but where we disagree drastically is that plants are dangerous for human beings to consume. We are omnivores, our ancestors have been surviving primarily on a diet of vegetation for centuries. I mean how f***ing hard do you think it was to kill a woolly mammoth with a piece of rock attached to a stick to form a spear?

4️⃣ Lower Body Exercises to Look Better Naked

Vanity is important. 4 lower body exercises to look better naked:

1️⃣ Hip thruster: Who doesn’t want a bigger, rounder butt? A lot of glute emphasis without a lot of fatigue.

2️⃣ Reverse lunge: Offers both aesthetics and function. Moving well will help keep you looking good.

3️⃣ Barbell squat: The grandfather of all squats. This exercise allows both hip hinge and knee bend.

4️⃣ Deadlift: The king of all exercises. However it’s a double-edged sword 🗡️ due to so many muscles being involved.

Apple a Day Keeps the Doctor Away 🍎

America is not overweight because of fruit 🍎 An apple a day does in fact help keep the doctor away, because they are high in antioxidants, vitamins, and fiber. They also help facilitate good gut health. There is a difference between fructose and refined sugar.

This is amazing for breakfast or that afternoon snack. You can have it as you are walking out the door to work or on the way out of the office heading home.

Teabag your Kettlebell‼️

Why on earth would I want you to teabag your kettlebell? Because you should be standing directly overtop of it. You want to think about this thing slicing you right in half. But even when I tell clients to stand right on top of it, they don’t grasp it until I tell them to teabag this MFer. So ladies and gentlemen, teabag your kettlebell.

You can also think about it as athletic stance. You want to feel the weight in your heels and a nice stretch in your hamstrings at the start point of your kettlebell deadlift.

Perfection is a Form of Passivity

Why do I talk about fast food as a nutrition coach? Because real life isn’t perfect. You might be stuck in the car with your kids, you might be on the road traveling, or you might just not have managed your day perfectly and now you’re f***ing hungry and need to figure life out. I get all these pompous, self-righteous people commenting on my videos who don’t even have abs or have it figured out. Perfection is a form of passivity. If you believe that you have to be perfect, you’ll never make an attempt at anything. That’s why I offer guidance for everyday situations. Now f*** off.

HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training): Short, Explosive Intervals, Followed by a Period of Rest

HIIT (high intensity interval training) means you’re doing short, explosive intervals, followed by a period of rest. You can work until you complete a particular distance, period of time, or to reach a heart rate goal. You then follow with a recovery period of either a predetermined amount of time or until your heart rate goes back down. Here I’m aiming for 80-90% of my max heart rate, so usually 160-180 beats per minute. HIIT is great for improving your anaerobic threshold and VO2max. It also causes EPOC, which means you burn calories after exercise. Just remember, 80% of your cardio should be zone 2, or approximately 110-130 BPM.
