Most dads over 40 are intermittent fasting, skipping workouts, and drinking alcohol multiple nights per week.
Then they wonder why they can't lose weight.
Here are 10 No-BS Rules to drop 20-40 lbs by summer:
#1) Eat 50g of protein at breakfast
You intermittent fast.. then snack all afternoon and overeat at dinner.
Instead, start the day with eggs, Greek yogurt, a protein shake or even a couple egg white Grillers... whatever gets you to 50+ g.
You'll make better choices all day.

#2) Workout in the Morning
Life happens. Kids events. Work runs late. Helping with homework. Then you're exhausted in the evening.
Don't sacrifice family time.
Get up 45 minutes before anyone else is awake.

#3) Steps or Cardio daily
Walk 8,000+ steps daily.
Spend $100 on a walking pad and if you can't hit 8,000 steps, do 30 minutes of incline walking instead.
You're over 40.. Your heart is the most important muscle in your body. Take care of it.

6) Limit Alcohol to Two drinks per week
You want to get healthy? There's a short term price to pay.
Alcohol pauses your metabolism, leads to poor food choices and makes you feel lazy.
Drink NA's, sparkling waters, or Coke Zero.
Be serious and get results first.

7) Fast 1x/week
24 hours. Dinner to dinner weekly.
Life is chaotic. A Monday fast after the weekend is a physical and mental reset.
Stay hydrated with water and electrolytes.
Every client says they were easier than expected.

8) Brush your teeth after dinner.
There is an inverse relationship between the later in the evening that you eat and the quality of that food.
Later meals = poorer choices.
Cut off eating before bed, give your gut a rest and save yourself 1000s of calories per week.
