3 steps to lean

What I am about to give you is super simple and super effective.

If the whole world followed this diet plan then everyone would have a six pack.

That is of course assuming you can move sufficiently to develop very basic muscle tone – walking and day to day activities would be enough.

The problem with this advice is:

There is no gimmick.

There is nothing to get us excited.

It focusses on just three things, which if followed consistently yield results.

Compare that to the fat loss industry as a whole and it is completely at odds with it.

There are no pictures of aero bikes.

Sweaty six packs.

1 – Eat vegetables with every meal, that includes breakfast, dinner and lunch. Even munch on veg as snacks throughout the day. Make smoothies from them, make soups etc etc but eat a lot – at least 10 portions per day.

2 – Eat at least a hand sized portion of protein with each meal – ideally animal (that includes fish).

3 – Remove anything from your diet which is not farmed or grown in a field. If it has had something done to it post slaughter/picking, avoid it.

What does that look like?

A typical meal would be:

Fillet steak – green beans – sweet potato – sweet corn.

Sounds tasty right, even for breakfast?

The only issue is that it can become more and more tricky to keep this sort of food interesting.

It’s why I’ve got a recipe section in my book – The Triathlete Nutrition Code:

Apart from the recipes, it has:

Info on how to set calories.

Which carbs to eat when.

How to alter carbs for each days training.
