If you can't lose the last 10 pounds or so of body fat no matter how hard you work out, it's because of the way you're eating.
Even if you think you're eating well enough and in a calorie deficit, this short video explains why that's not enough to get the job done.
Reach out to me at 925-352-4366, if you're not sure if this applies to you.

If youโre like most of the men who listen to this podcast, you have accomplished a few things in your life. But, despite those accomplishments and all of the praise you continually get, youโre still not satisfied. You have a lot of talent. Youโre willing to do the hard work.You just know that you have a lot more to achieve in your life. You have a lot of โunfinished businessโ!
In this podcast, I talk about how youโre not alone if you think about all of the things you still havenโt accomplished or experienced in your life yet.

When you look in the mirror, youโll know what it takes to get from where you are now (Point A) to get to where you want to be (Point B) with more certainty and confidence. It doesnโt matter where you are right now or what your goals are, youโll know what to do.
Then, it will just be a matter of you doing what you know for a long enough period of time. Thatโs a great place to be. Youโll have a better sense of control during the entire process. The most important training, eating, lifestyle, and mindset strategies are all covered.
Youโll know exactly what to do ...
Most older men canโt.
No matter what they say, they canโt.
And, because they canโt, the information you need to hear never gets told.
It goes against the grain.
It gets too much resistance from untrained minds.
So, why bother?
These are just a few of the things that elite, experienced men who workout and look great (and have for a long time) want to tell you, but they know you just wonโt understand.
They know that you are getting the majority of your instruction from undertrained minds. Youโre getting your information from people who worry too much about what other people think. They worry about what the โinternet trollsโ and inexperienced, less knowledgeable fitness experts will say about them.

Today after a warm-up I decided to eliminate pyramiding up in weight and just go for my heaviest weight for 8-10 in squats. That was 225/8, 225/6, and 225/7. Then I applied that same method with incline DB 70/11, 70/10, followed by close grip Lat Pulldowns 125/10, 130/10, 140/7. With a bit more rest between sets I hit my 1st rule. My rule is 60 minutes
