my workout consists of walking to the fridge, back to the bed with a drink, and fucking

i usually do really fast paced workouts. generally 2 exercises per muscle group, 3 sets of 12 w/ medium weight, 6 sets total. it takes about an hour, 3 times a week.

Unless the meat is tuna, chicken breast, turkey or fish...worthless.

I had a nice workout today... did arms and shoulders...

dumbell bench
tri extensions
one handed tri extensions
flys
curles
preacher curls
shoulder routine that I do
pec machine

like 1.75 miles walkin on the treadmill
half hour of soccer after with my cousin

I was pretty happy with my arm strength, I haven't done ANYTHING in a long time but was repping only like 10lbs less on dumbell benches than I used to do, and 5lbs less on curls...

oh, false! Here, let me show you what I'm going to start shooting for. Before I was just eating whatever I want as long as it was high protein, but now I've started changing the way I work out and the food I eat

An evolutionary diet is not a ”diet”. In the conventional meaning, being on a ”diet” implies that you are restricting calories (as in a prescription)
and eating in a habitual manner. Evolutionary eating is not a diet, but a natural way of eating. Properly considered, the purpose of a diet is to provide
nutrition and maintain health, not to lose weight.

In the Evolutionary Fitness Diet you consume abundant simple, fresh plant
foods rich in minerals, flavonoids, phenols, and phytochemicals, substances
that coevolved over millenia with humans and that no manufactured drugs or
substances could reproduce with present technology. The low carbohydrate
and near zero raw glucose content of the diet, combined with the natural
antioxidants provide protection from glucose-mediated oxidative damage to
body proteins; the advanced glycation end products that accelerate aging and the stiffness caused by cross-linked proteins in connective tissues.

You do not eat in a habitual and highly regulated way; indeed, variation in
foods and caloric intake is an essential element of natural eating. Your food
is high in protein (by modern standards, but moderate in terms of the protein
intakes of hunter-gatherers), moderate in fat (but balanced in Omega 3 and
6 composition), and low in carbohydrate. It contains no grains, milk, beans
or processed foods. There is no caloric restriction because you eat only
nutritionally dense, low calorie food and your appetite is reset to become a
healthy guide to your nutritional needs.

I have a real problem with the no milk and grains thing, but I'll just move into it slowly and see what happens.
