Why we eat crap on the go
Our body responds to modern stress just like it responded to the old sabre-toothed tiger: fight or flight.
In preparation for a fight, or a flight, our body releases cortisol and adrenaline
This stimulates a variety of physical symptoms like faster heart rate, slowed digestion, shaking, flushed face etc.
The problem is, we are not in great danger in modern life!

Salad, vomit, and going too far.
"yo Ant, you look like you've put some weight on!"
There was a time when that would be a compliment to me.
Back when I played rugby, being heavy was a GOOD thing.
Yet I struggled to gain weight past a certain point, and you may laugh at this, but if you haven't actually TRIED to get heavier in a short space of time, you'd be surprised at how tough it can be.
Anyway, I devised a wonderful meal plan:

responsibility = freedom
One of my clients had a revelation this week.
She has finally been able to lose body fat consistently. Her ability to take responsibility for what she was eating was key.
I’ll share her story in just a second, but first I want you to know something.
You can lose weight. You can get fit. You are already fit enough to get started.
Be in the now, be in the present, step up to the mark and - if you’re not happy - do something about your health and fitness NOW.

2 must haves for health, strength and clarity...
Today I'm aiming to describe what I believe are the TWO ‘must-haves’ when it comes to a fitness program. Meaning that without these bases covered, you’ll find it easy to quit. Self-deception will be rife each day. You’ll go weeks without training then suddenly feel guilty.
Sound familiar?
Let’s jump in:

See your truth to get healthier
Are you looking for a way to feel fitter, to feel like yourself again?
To get that confidence and energy back?
Perhaps you’ve let things slip over the last 6-18 months, maybe longer, and you want to step in and take control again?
Over the past few weeks I’ve been in consultations with lots of people wanting to start a 6 week trial with us.
There are a few common themes I’ve noticed from these conversations. Common lines of thinking and motivation which come up with almost every person, which, if you take the time to see them in your own life, will greatly improve your ability to lose weight, make profound improvements to your health and to feel a bit better about your life.

How (and why) to NOT overeat...
“you can do it Ant! Have some more cornbread then wash the steak down with some beer!”
New York City - 2011
I have had eyes bigger than my stomach MANY times. But nothing worse than in NYC a few years back, when me and Sara went to what can only be described as a ‘food barn’ called Dallas BBQ.
Food was served in troughs, literally mountains of food on your trough. And you just felt full and bloated after about 5 mins/2 bites.
BUT - when in Rome….you get it down your neck don’t you!
At least, that’s what I did.

But you know what, I find it hard to eat less than I want to eat.
So I’ve found a few simple tricks to eat less without noticing the effort.

Meditations on fasting.
For the past 4 weeks I've been steadily losing body fat. To do this I've used intermittent fasting and low calories.
Intermittent fasting (IF) is not a wonder weapon to beat all other diets. But I have noticed a few unorthodox benefits from using IF that I'd like to share with you today.
First off, the only scientifically verified principle for stimulating your body to lose fat is being in a calorie deficit each day. Eat too many calories and you stay the same or gain fat.
Second, there are many ways of eating less. Most diets, especially the mass marketed ones, are simply ways to enforce eating less. This is very important to your diet success and we'll come back to this point.

Weight loss is a funny thing…
I got tricks.
Lotsa tricks to stop you eating too much.
Because overeating is THE barrier to your goals.
This is not a recipe list, or a “5 easy tips” kinda article.
I’m going to simply share a few tricks I’ve noticed actually WORK to burn fat
You see weight loss is a funny thing...
It’s MORE important to STOP doing stupid shit...
...and LESS important to add in smart training, personal trainers, supplements etc.
Because NONE of that works when you are overeating!
