Nutrition Cheat Sheet

These are the most important things about eating to lose, maintain, or gain weight that I could think of that could fill out one sheet of paper. There are countless diets and nutrition plans, most of them telling you that you can't eat certain foods, or at certain times. Most of it is bullshit. If a person gets everything right on this sheet that applies to their personal goals, they will see progress. Notice I didn't mention anything about how many meals to eat, because it doesn't matter as long as you are hitting your numbers. Studies have shown that there is no difference between eating 3, 4, 5, or 6 meals. Eating before bed, sure, as long as it fits within your macros for the day. Most of the information on nutrition is written by either people with agendas, or idiots, or worse yet, both.

Note:  The Creatine recommendation is for people trying to build muscular size and strength.

Introducing: Building a Resilient Body

Here is a look at the cover, I'll be covering movement/mobility, beginner and intermediate strength work, the rationale for proper power and conditioning sessions, program design, and a few other goodies. I'll post excerpts periodically.

CROSSFIT

One of the rare things someone can ask you your opinion on, and if you say "It's pretty good" you are likely to get death threats from both sides.

Building a Resilient Body

New book, coming late 2014-early 2015,

I'll be posting occasional excerpts in the meantime. The book favors a balanced approach of movement/mobility, strength training, power and conditioning work, and recovery techniques. Tons of pics, detailed descriptions of exercises and programming, pretty much anything a beginner or intermediate(and in some cases advanced) trainee would need to optimize and refine their current program, or maybe even light it on fire or throw it out a window.

I've started this blog to hopefully be a more successful version of its previous iteration:

I'm trying to dispense accurate fitness advice in a world gone mad.
