Important Gym and Nutrition Lesson

Gym Lesson:
There is no "holy grail" training program that can be and do all things for all people. Everyone has different needs and/or goals. Don't waste your time searching for the perfect program; it does not exist. Get with a reputable personal trainer or find programs that are backed up by true, real-life results.

Nutrition Lesson:
There is no perfect "diet" or lifestyle eating habits. Let that sink in for a second.

I am a huge believer of making your eating habits fit your life style, not the other way around. For some people this may mean eating 5-6 small meals throughout the day. For others it may mean 3 main meals and a small snack. For some it may mean 2 large meals. And for others, they may be interested in intermittent fasting.

Do what works for you. If you hate the inconvenience of having to eat every few hours, then don't follow that eating pattern.

Any eating style can be effective as long as you adhere to healthy nutrition principles.
