yup he is a partner of the company that sells the over training solution and of course he says its the best. Also the stuff that is actually in the stuff are just Immunoglobulins which have nothing to do with your muscle recovery, though they are very good for your digestive tract. Do your own research people, there is no magic pill drink or powder and if there was the major pharm companies would have their hands on it first.
theres nothing wrong with brief periods of hunger. it will only be for an hour or two. we give too much into our fleshly cravings. besides when you give up processed food and sugars thats half the battle
Deliberate control of food intake really works- for blood sugar regulation, getting lean, and weight control, along with intensive to moderate exercise.
One meal a day... He's basically fasting. Tons of research out there support that fasting heals the shit out of the body... And that's the smallest kitchen knife I've ever seen
Its literally how we are designed as human primal species. Our bodies are not meant to be constantly eating all day. Allow it time to heal and digest properly
I decided to do 10 days fruits and vegetables with some protein, but one meal a day. I came across this video and l was glad to see a man doing it. ☺️ I had a big bowl of salad for dinner and planning to fast until tomorrow night again.l'm down 3 lbs in 2 days. I want to loose 20 lbs and get back to my previous weight. This inspired me! Thanks
Vegan as well... I started 2 meals a day. My job is a workout in its self. I just increased my carb intake and I've dropped 11lbs. I was at 238, I'm aiming for 220-216 back to my College athletic days.
Good stuff! I've been eating once a day for about 15 years now. It is the best change I've made in my life. I had ulcerative colitis and basically cured myself from steadily changing the way I eat. I began eating once a day but I wasn't eating super clean meals and steadily evolved into eating super clean once a day. I also bake my vegetables, very good way to make them. A good tip on the asparagus is bend it until it breaks and keep the flower part to eat. Good luck with this technique it makes me very happy that more and more people are catching on to it!
Food really is an addiction! I actually been contemplating on just eating fruits and vegetables lately, I think this video just gave me the inspiration to do so!
I’ve been do this for years I’m very muscular and strong vegan as well,just take vitamins,black seed oil,sea moss,vitamin C,probiotics for your gut health and you feel great nice vid champ.
Every old vegan that I have seen has been weak and feeble looking with loss of hair and weak bone structure, I'm down with the vegetarian thing because as long as it does not kill the animal it's nothing wrong with you taking from it.
@@aarona222 it isnt so much lack of taste, it's the woody texture.ITs the same as throwing the bottom part of the broccoli head away and only using the flowers... the only way to make asparagus or broccoli bottoms palatable is to use them in a soup or something that boils for along time..
I started intermittent fasting 6 months ago doing 16:8 - saw immediate results - then after about a month, I switched to 20:4 - continued to lose weight for a couple months more, then hit a plateau. I was frustrated and knew I was gonna have to up my game to break my plateau. Switched to OMAD, broke the plateau, lost more weight, and I never have looked back since. I’m an OMAD for life! 🙌🏽
If a man says "don't take my word for it, look it up yourself", that's a clear sign man know what he's talking about and he's really looking out for you.
Love this Mike! I'm in my mid-fifties and have been intermittent fasting for a long time. FASTING in and of itself is probably THE healthiest thing you can do for your body - physically, spiritually (hearing God better) and mentally. Thanks for sharing the truth and explaining so others can easily understand. Plus, for me...I don't think about EATING all the time like I used to. God bless brother!
Went to one solid meal a day (dinner or alternate with lunch) 7 weeks ago shortly after hearing him talk about it on Hotboxin' and lost 29 lbs.! My body, joints, organs, skin, is thanking me. Inflammation, allergies, and sugar cravings went from daily to zero. I do seansonal fruit smoothie with a scoop of superfoods and isolate protein for breakfast and collagen bone broth for lunch. I'm not as big muscular but I'm shredded and fit clothes from years ago and feel amazing! Giving up the weights and going full calisthenics and boxing now too. Live the functional fit performance and physique. Highly recommend trying this it is a game changer!!!
Great to hear! Just found him last night on TikTok… as a woman who has never had weight issues it hit me after I turned 47… I’ve tried everything… even liver and colon cleanse enzymes. Starting today!
This dude giving "Real Advice" and not out here lying an bullshiting for likes and followers. Love it bro. Keep doing your thing. Bigger knife needed ASAP tho..lol.
I love how this guy communicates on the level. “If you can’t afford it then get regular asparagus.” Seems would be the guy you’d gravitate towards as a friend just because.
Hey Mike, just wanted to inform you that most nutrients found in vegetables are stored in the roots. Therefore you should try to eat the entire asparagus (just chop off a little bit at the bottom of the root). Hope this helps
I used to feed my Guinea pigs all kinds of veggies. They loved the roots of all plants. They are a good guidance system on what is good for you or not.
Shiiit lmao most WOMEN let themselves goto shit and get fat as FUCK because of these so called "movements" ironically that empowers being an unhealthy fat fuck eating ice cream and watching Kardashians and The voice mixed in reality shows. Foh with that "most men" bullshit. Don't classify and won't be classified.
it takes time to adapt, and its not for everyone, i do IF from time to time, sometimes its easier and i do not get hungry after a few days but sometimes i get silly carvings. Best is twice per day and you can eat a lot more.
I'd give it a try myself were it not for a very physically demanding job as well. I'll try near anything if someone can make a logical argument for it, and if I person I believe to be trustworthy claims benefit from it. Some people though, you just can't trust a damned thing that comes out of their mouth because potential views dictate their morals, rather than their morals dictating potential views.
I did pipeline construction for three years (breaking, digging, etc..) No way I could've survive that with this sh*t. The summer days when we put in some serious work where 10x more grueling than any gym workout. Functional strength > Gym muscles
im sold on this. when i began this, ive lost weight and yet gotten stronger. a lot of what we've been told about calories are not true. most people are too big and eat too much
Good call Mike. Were ultimately working out to be healthy, not to hurt ourself internally in the long run. I'm no where close to being big and muscular, but I see what you're saying.
The roots carry the most nutrients in any plant organism the closer you cut toward the root. The more beneficial the result. I'm no doctor but I have worked within and helped bring forth the number one juice cleanse bar in Charlotte, NC. Keep it clean and stay balanced every one!
Roots do the job of absorbing the water, minerals and nitrogen from the soil. but they do not fix the nitrogen, the leaves do. So you might not be getting the most bioavailable nutrients from the roots....
Just found you and became a subscriber. I have found it better to just keep my OMAD eating habit to myself bc everyone has something negative to say about fasting. I love that you tell people to do their own research. I also find cows milk disgusting and can’t figure out why adults are out here drinking that. Thanks for this video and keep them coming!
Natures #1 trusted source of food for animals to grow big? Milk. Mom gives milk to the babies or animals and they grow big. If you’re trying to grow muscle, it works.
I stumbled onto this video in the beginning of what will be my transformation from a piss poor diet with no discipline to a more healthy and positive outlook and route. I appreciate u taking the time to share what u did my brother. I took alot from this video and just wanted to say thank u even if u never see this comment. Much luv & respect. Peace
Good job! One meal a day is good to lose weight in a hurry. That being said, a lot of people can't stick with it. For those who can, more power to them. 3 weeks ago I weighed 235 lbs, I'm 6'2". I began an intermittent fast 16/8 with about a 500 calorie deficit and I'm cutting carbs. In 3 weeks I lost 7 lbs and now I'm 228. My goal is to drop 20 or 25 lbs more by the summer. I also take BCAA's during workouts and take MCT Oil. I stopped working out for a while last year due to the death of my mom, but I'm more upbeat now. I do the Total gym 3 times a week and free weights 3 times a week. And I just bought a dip bar.
I know I'm late to your post, but much Respect for being able to overcome a family loss and restart your training, says a lot about your positivity level. 👍 Hopefully, you're still in your training program and don't neglect LEGENDARY LEG DAY! Stay Positive Brother! 💪⚡⚡
I just find it very hard to believe you muscles can grow on 1 meal a day, without steroids..even with steroids, i find it difficult..if I go more than 4 or 5 hours without eating, i feel flat and no energy...your body is built to digest food...this is a very extreme approach...
I guess if you're trying to lose weight it'll work...but it's not reasonable if you're trying to stay the same weight or add muscle...simple if you take in less calories than you burn off, you will lose weight...and if your normal calorie maintainence does is 3000 calories per day; it's impossible to get all 3000 calories in one meal...not without bursting and your body wouldn't be able to process all those calories in one sitting.
bigconan Herschel Walker has been doing this for years. One meal a day, no weightlifting, no steroids, and still stayed ripped and cut. I don't think everyone's metabolism can take it.
there are certain biochemical rules that apply to everyone...if you burn off more calories than you take in, you're going to lose weight and vice versa...this is a universal fact...now, hershal being over 200lbs, there is no way you can maintain that kind of muscle weight with just 1 meal...simply no way...now, if you're using that as a means to lose weight, then it will work great...or using it for short periods of time to clean out your system, then it will work good...but, you cannot maintain or gain muscle using a 1 meal per day schedule.
I see where he is coming from, I never got up to 240 but I went up from 195 to 220 just from lifting and eating and it doesnt feel all that good. Its looks good but it makes you feel very sluggish and puts a lot of weight on your limbs. Im down to 198 and I feel more functional and light on my feet especially from a self defence stand point.
Mike Rashid is my hero I was locked in when he said if you can look in the mirror and be happy with that then keep living that way if do see something you can fix get off your ass and get in the gym😎
This doesn't sound like it's aimed as a 'one meal a day to bulk up' sort of thing, it sounds more like 'got the bulk, just need to lose the fat with one meal a day' For those who are mistaking this for a one meal a day miracle
Subbed! In the first 3 minutes of your video, you gave me more information on the Human Body than any other health channel I have ever seen and I'm a Fruitarian. You said the magic word, you said our bodies WILL "LIQUEFY" FOOD BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT WE ABSORB, LIQUIDS!. You sir are worth watching, there is nothing more valuable in this world than practical education.
Robert Elliott he's a fake natty bro, don't fall for his bull. He's lied for years about his steroid use and mike Rashid isn't even his birth name. He changed it to hide his back ground and don't get me started on his false boxing career lol the guys a naive fake. I only came back to his channel because am looking into the one meal a day thing and his video was at the top
So what if he lied about something? Tell me one person who doesn't or hasn't lied about something. Doesn't mean he hasn't a clue what he's talking about. Pretty much everything he says is logical.
People have been slowly learning more about intermittent fasting as time goes on. It’s not peoples faults that they have been fed false information since the day they were born. You have to eat 6 small meals or 3 square meals a day. I’m glad more and more people are taking upon themselves to do research
I eat once a day at 15:30. Same time every day, clean eating, huge quantity until I feel full. Eating once a day and my body is the best it ever was. Visible abs, tight waist, sharper look. Downside is from around 10:00 to 15:30 you feel the hunger and depletion, you dont feel weak but you dont feel strong either. Second downside you appear small in cloths and people are quick to assume you dont even lift/undertrain/slack/not take it seriously until you remove your shirt and see them go silent. And with a huge pump they will ask you what you take. Never judge a body until you see it. Will I continue this for a long time? Maybe, but I cant see myself eating more than twice a day, once you debunk those outdated meal frequency myths you never look back.
People are so quick to bring up shit about "America", man I see people of all nationalities being critical on here. Foreigners be itchin to say some shit about America lol. And to Mike keep doin ya thing man, if it works for you then all power to you. Forget the haters.
Yea I love how you assume that every negative comment is from an American. You give an opinionated, critical comment about how you hate people giving opinionated, critical comments...and then you blame it on Americans. The hypocrisy is palpable.
Watching u inspires me to keep going i am on a mission i use to be 263 pounds but now i fast and it help me a lot i am currently at 182 thanks mike for every thing
Mike read how to eat to live book 1 & 2... it's about eating one meal a day written by Elijah Muhammad... he talks about how it takes 24 hours for one meal to properly digest... anyway good shit bro stay strong...
wwwhbo74 exactly, i was going to say this but you beat me to it. You notice he gave a shot out to the book at the very end. i wonder y he didn't just come out and say it.
wwwhbo74 Mike has knowledge of self, he just doesn't come out and say so as to not alienate his fan base. the brother even has a crescent moon & star tatted.
First thing I thought of when he started this video, My cousin's that are in Public Enemy told me about this as well as my brother. Definitely going to try this recipe minus the salmon since I'm allergic. Also im going to read those books. Thanks
I have the book. This concept has been around forever, but lots of folks are just now catching on. The book even goes on to say at some point to eat one meal every other day, or every 3rd day. I currently do one meal a day (OMAD) since the beginning of the year. The start was tough, but I feel it is one of the best things I've done for my body.
Coming back and watching this video I like how Mike doesn’t seem so stuck up and stiff and nervous he seems really relaxed focus and confident in what he’s doing
Rollo, i agree , what you are saying is maybe 'generally' correct. Especially when arguing/debating. But it certainly isn't always the case. I also agree with Andrew, that many of us disregard cultural norms :)
Rollo Larson He's defined by himself not your opinion. People whom are WEAK in defining themselves have no authority over anyone else, but themselves. You ignorance did have to listen to his video as you're not doing him any good or harm... Go fuckin meditate. Namaste bitches...
Started eating once a mike like 2-3 weeks and I went from 205 to 195... never been under 200 since 2014-2015 ... never felt better thanks bro ... finally losing my dad body lol ... but it was hard but I feel so much better and happier bro thanks a lot big guy
Great video! I have been plant based for 2.5 years now. I lost a lot of muscle mass. I don't take supplements. Most of my "usable" protein comes from beans. I eat minimal processed foods and really like seeing how you made this meal. For me, once I got past caring what people thought about me, I didn't care about being bulky. I feel better then I ever have at 45 years old eating plants twice a day and working out 6-7 days a week. Thanx for the video man💪😎
Mike, my dude, you killin me cuttin all your veggies with the letter opener paring knife lol. Unless this part of your chest n tri's day, where's your chef knife yo??
Now this is the kind of person id trust. Body builders who talk too smooth and could be mistaken for TV presenters , I don't trust at all. I'm gonna try this. 🤔
Ray Lmn hey it works fasted cardio all that shit is real and the truth is out fast eat less eat minerals take multi drink water and take protein to feed muscle get lean as fuck and feel good and live a lot longer then normal expectations
You are very motivational. This is my first time watching your videos and after watching this I feel as I can do better things to improve my health to live a better life. I also appreciate the way that you explain everything so perfectly to where I can understand. Thank you 💪🏽
Who would dislike this, why? I'm loving this and putting it with my collective knowledge. True food for thought and action. Mike from the heart much appreciated.
i've been folliwing this guy for years, mantras, eating habits, lifting habits and i'm so glad he's bringing up this style of dieting. and keto. I do keto and eveyrone i know is weird about it. but i have never felt better in my lift. i sleep well and less hours, no more allergies, i haven't touched my inhaler in two months three days. i used to always wake up with congestion. no more of that either. the food industry and bodybuilding industry has miscontrued a lot of what the body wants and needs. i don't eat nearly as much protein and i'm almost twice and yolked but not soft big. my skin quality is great, OH and I CAN BREATHE OUT OF BOTH NOSTRILS it hasn't been like that consistently ever!! only when i eat minty food or wasabi. give up the bad carbs people. it really works. don't like veggies? make veggie smoothies don't like cooking? crock pot or one pan oven meals always hungry? eat more satiating fats -- drink 8oz of water before every meal. but not after ( i hear it messes with digestion ) dont' boil food if you're not gonna drink the water, all the nutrients are sucked out. always bake or microwave (you don't get cancer from the microwave.......................................... -_-) always use himalayan salt not iodized or regular sea salt. (more minerals in pink salt and you wont get bloated ever.) i've only been at this for a short time but I can tell you... i'm never turning back.
Gotta respect this mans honesty. He admits when he doesn't know something and why he thinks he might be right but also might be wrong. Much love. Do as he says but DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH.
Mike Rashid Wise man Bro! Respect and Salute, Blessings. You inspire me it feels good to know a man of your stature eat how i eat. I definitely know im doing the right thing. Thank you
Nice Mike - I do warrior diet & eat one big meal - I feel energetic - can lift heavy weight - & I don't need any energy amino or supplement pre workout
OMAD is the most sustainable lifestyle ever. I don’t even feel hungry anymore and feel more energetic. I eat a ton of vegetables to break my fast then an hour later have my big meal filled with carbs and protein.
I do the same thing. Eat veggies to break my fast then enjoy my good carbs and proteins I never count calories and dropping weight. Some days I break the fast with bunch of fruits
@@basslinin smh how old are you? Nobody needs a reason to lie. And what the fuck does voting for that white supremacist mob boss (the biggest liar) have to do with anything? "He said he voted for 45 so there's no way he would ever lie about anything!" smh
I'm so glad I ran into this video because I have been saying to myself I want to eat to live, not live to eat and this video has inspired even more to eat healthy, stop drinking, and become totally fit. Thanks!!!!!!
I'm the fat dad Mike was talking about and I'd much rather race with my son.Working on intermittent fasting, not eating until 1 or 2 pm for the first time in the day and then not again until 6-7 for dinner and trying to keep it lighter. Down 18lbs so far.
Sweet I too am trying the intermittent fasting, I am not super fat but over weight. I started at the gym 233lbs 5ft10 28%bf the first 10lbs came off lightning fast but I was stuck at 220 for 3 weeks until I started eating 1 meal a day with fruit or veggie snacks when hungry the rest off the day and BOOM passed that 220 instantly. Now down to 214 and 24%bf only been working out 2 months. More concerned with bf% at this point than weight but I was determined to get below that 220 mark.
Mike Rashid instead of soy sauce I highly recommend as a substitute - (Braggs: Amino Acids) it tastes exactly like soy sauce but is super healthy for you
Mike Rashid also try 1 fresh squeezed lemon in a glass of water 1st thing when you wake up. Also add some fermented foods like kimchi, sauerkraut, kefir etc look it up
I too have a food addiction. My personal view is that the concept of eating 5 to 6 smaller meals a day contributed to me never feeling full and more easily justifying eating "another" snack. For me it contributed to me eating too many processed foods and too many calories. I find that planning and preparing one meal a day is so much easier, less time consuming, and allows me to make the contents of the food to be of much higher quality as a result. Surprisingly it also helps me to stay more disciplined in my relationship with food. I have already eaten my calories for the day. As a result I stay on track with my caloric needs and don't overeat.
refreshing AF to see a big dude like yourself working towards total health rather than size / strength gains alone.

You should try water fasting when that happens. I'm doing OMAD for then 10 days then planning to transit to water fasting.
I love that you are doing this for longevity and for your kids. You don't care what other people think which is the way it should be.
If a man says "don't take my word for it, look it up yourself", that's a clear sign man know what he's talking about and he's really looking out for you.

Wu Tang Chef. Keep it up brother
That's who he looks like!! Fuck yeah 😂 😂 a jacked Method Man
LMAO...hella true!
Sounds like em too
I was wondering if anyone else thought the same thing! 😂
I thought that Raekwon was the Chef ? 😂
He looks and remind me of my dad, always active and motivated.
I wish I could eat once a day, but being a constructing worker (working 10 hours)then working out, there's no way. ..
Aaron Strong I feel ya bro. I would have no energy or power in the gym.
it takes time to adapt, and its not for everyone, i do IF from time to time, sometimes its easier and i do not get hungry after a few days but sometimes i get silly carvings. Best is twice per day and you can eat a lot more.
I'd give it a try myself were it not for a very physically demanding job as well. I'll try near anything if someone can make a logical argument for it, and if I person I believe to be trustworthy claims benefit from it. Some people though, you just can't trust a damned thing that comes out of their mouth because potential views dictate their morals, rather than their morals dictating potential views.
I did pipeline construction for three years (breaking, digging, etc..) No way I could've survive that with this sh*t. The summer days when we put in some serious work where 10x more grueling than any gym workout. Functional strength > Gym muscles
sam blonde know exactly what you mean, stick welding under a 10in pipe in July in Georgia is no cake walk, salute my brother
This guy explained it better than anyone ive heard
OMAD (one meal a day), this is the expert level of intermittent fasting
I I have tried eating once a day but damn, I feel dizziness, headache, just messed up feelings. I can't even focus at work.
My eating window is 22/2, 22 hour fast 2 hours to eat. Particularly it's one big meal.
Some days I eat dbol only and some I eat winstrol only.
@வலையர் இன்று முத்தரையர் How can I overcome that?
im sold on this. when i began this, ive lost weight and yet gotten stronger. a lot of what we've been told about calories are not true. most people are too big and eat too much
Facts
Good call Mike. Were ultimately working out to be healthy, not to hurt ourself internally in the long run. I'm no where close to being big and muscular, but I see what you're saying.
lets be real why only eat once a day if your still on riods maybe give up roids if you wand to downsize your half in size up plus be more healthy.
Way da go.....
Great video! Great encouragement keep inspiring Mike
so this was posted 7 months ago, are you still currently doing this and how did it turn out?

The roots carry the most nutrients in any plant organism the closer you cut toward the root. The more beneficial the result. I'm no doctor but I have worked within and helped bring forth the number one juice cleanse bar in Charlotte, NC. Keep it clean and stay balanced every one!
Roots do the job of absorbing the water, minerals and nitrogen from the soil. but they do not fix the nitrogen, the leaves do. So you might not be getting the most bioavailable nutrients from the roots....
Just found you and became a subscriber. I have found it better to just keep my OMAD eating habit to myself bc everyone has something negative to say about fasting. I love that you tell people to do their own research. I also find cows milk disgusting and can’t figure out why adults are out here drinking that. Thanks for this video and keep them coming!
Natures #1 trusted source of food for animals to grow big? Milk. Mom gives milk to the babies or animals and they grow big. If you’re trying to grow muscle, it works.
this guys cool asf

I like how you're calling someone a moron while your grammar is straight ass...
ladies and gentlemen, the internet.

@@DESTRAKON My thoughts exactly! People kill me trying talk about others in their comments and misspell words, use the wrong word and, or bad Grammer!
DESTRAKON need for the f word brother
I have been fasting for the last 4 months Mike never felt better. MY MIND IS SO CLEAR!
quenton thomas so is your stomach!! I'm sure
quenton thomas yea I did it for nine days felt the same way.
...and by using a little knife he also be training some insane patience - RESPECT haha
right with that little ass knife
What a funny comment, made my day :)
Right on!! what he didn't use a little bigger size knife? LOL
Issar
🤣🤣🤣
I stumbled onto this video in the beginning of what will be my transformation from a piss poor diet with no discipline to a more healthy and positive outlook and route. I appreciate u taking the time to share what u did my brother. I took alot from this video and just wanted to say thank u even if u never see this comment. Much luv & respect. Peace
Good job! One meal a day is good to lose weight in a hurry. That being said, a lot of people can't stick with it. For those who can, more power to them. 3 weeks ago I weighed 235 lbs, I'm 6'2". I began an intermittent fast 16/8 with about a 500 calorie deficit and I'm cutting carbs. In 3 weeks I lost 7 lbs and now I'm 228. My goal is to drop 20 or 25 lbs more by the summer. I also take BCAA's during workouts and take MCT Oil. I stopped working out for a while last year due to the death of my mom, but I'm more upbeat now. I do the Total gym 3 times a week and free weights 3 times a week. And I just bought a dip bar.
RufusLeakin bcaa and oil break your fast
that's great !!! BCAA ??? do it work , do you mix it with MCT Oil...( trying to educated myself).
RufusLeakin sorry to hear about your mom dude. Shit must be rough. Keep at it mate💪🏾💪🏾❤️
I know I'm late to your post, but much Respect for being able to overcome a family loss and restart your training, says a lot about your positivity level. 👍
Hopefully, you're still in your training program and don't neglect LEGENDARY LEG DAY! Stay Positive Brother! 💪⚡⚡
I know I'm late, but sorry about your mom bro. Glad you're back at it.
This guy is a genius! i have said 1 meal a day for years!! WHY would anyone want their pancreas and liver working on max 5 or 6 times a day???
I just find it very hard to believe you muscles can grow on 1 meal a day, without steroids..even with steroids, i find it difficult..if I go more than 4 or 5 hours without eating, i feel flat and no energy...your body is built to digest food...this is a very extreme approach...
bigconan Chris Heris does it as well though & he doesn’t use roids
I guess if you're trying to lose weight it'll work...but it's not reasonable if you're trying to stay the same weight or add muscle...simple if you take in less calories than you burn off, you will lose weight...and if your normal calorie maintainence does is 3000 calories per day; it's impossible to get all 3000 calories in one meal...not without bursting and your body wouldn't be able to process all those calories in one sitting.
bigconan Herschel Walker has been doing this for years. One meal a day, no weightlifting, no steroids, and still stayed ripped and cut. I don't think everyone's metabolism can take it.
there are certain biochemical rules that apply to everyone...if you burn off more calories than you take in, you're going to lose weight and vice versa...this is a universal fact...now, hershal being over 200lbs, there is no way you can maintain that kind of muscle weight with just 1 meal...simply no way...now, if you're using that as a means to lose weight, then it will work great...or using it for short periods of time to clean out your system, then it will work good...but, you cannot maintain or gain muscle using a 1 meal per day schedule.
I see where he is coming from, I never got up to 240 but I went up from 195 to 220 just from lifting and eating and it doesnt feel all that good. Its looks good but it makes you feel very sluggish and puts a lot of weight on your limbs. Im down to 198 and I feel more functional and light on my feet especially from a self defence stand point.
javon jones I agree. I had chronic heartburn until I lost some weight. Extra weight does put a lot of pressure on your organs.
Andrew Hopscocth Im 5-10 nigga
Im going through the same thing and im around ft5 10in or 11in myself
Paul Archibald . i be 5 foot n 8 inches....37 yr. old , n , stayin Shredded.
Dalinkwent K Yea its not comfortable and I never felt the urge of hunger because I was constantly eating. Crazy thing is I missed being hungry
Mike Rashid is my hero I was locked in when he said if you can look in the mirror and be happy with that then keep living that way if do see something you can fix get off your ass and get in the gym😎
This doesn't sound like it's aimed as a 'one meal a day to bulk up' sort of thing, it sounds more like 'got the bulk, just need to lose the fat with one meal a day'
For those who are mistaking this for a one meal a day miracle
Mmmm makes more sense
im one of those tht thought tht...lol..thnks fr the heads up bro
This is true. You defs can’t bulk up like this
Steve David how much time do you save by not typing the letter a? never trust a man with two first names...
I thought that was funny too
Subbed! In the first 3 minutes of your video, you gave me more information on the Human Body than any other health channel I have ever seen and I'm a Fruitarian. You said the magic word, you said our bodies WILL "LIQUEFY" FOOD BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT WE ABSORB, LIQUIDS!.
You sir are worth watching, there is nothing more valuable in this world than practical education.
Robert Elliott he's a fake natty bro, don't fall for his bull. He's lied for years about his steroid use and mike Rashid isn't even his birth name. He changed it to hide his back ground and don't get me started on his false boxing career lol the guys a naive fake. I only came back to his channel because am looking into the one meal a day thing and his video was at the top
oh dang, thanks for the heads up bud.
sugar makes you age
So what if he lied about something? Tell me one person who doesn't or hasn't lied about something. Doesn't mean he hasn't a clue what he's talking about. Pretty much everything he says is logical.
You are dead on correct! Where did you learn this? I have known this for a few years but it is just in a small circle of people. Great job.
awesome i eat 1 meal a day :)
I do two meals a day And take no supplements or protein powder and I still look better than everybody else in the gym
People have been slowly learning more about intermittent fasting as time goes on. It’s not peoples faults that they have been fed false information since the day they were born. You have to eat 6 small meals or 3 square meals a day. I’m glad more and more people are taking upon themselves to do research
I eat once a day at 15:30. Same time every day, clean eating, huge quantity until I feel full.
Eating once a day and my body is the best it ever was. Visible abs, tight waist, sharper look.
Downside is from around 10:00 to 15:30 you feel the hunger and depletion, you dont feel weak but you dont feel strong either.
Second downside you appear small in cloths and people are quick to assume you dont even lift/undertrain/slack/not take it seriously until you remove your shirt and see them go silent. And with a huge pump they will ask you what you take.
Never judge a body until you see it.
Will I continue this for a long time? Maybe, but I cant see myself eating more than twice a day, once you debunk those outdated meal frequency myths you never look back.
@Havoc!!! if they used pesticides. That means it ain't organic. Duhhh
Just discovered this dude. Man I love this guy. Dude comes across super honest and down to earth.
Americans are too damn opinionated and critical, look at yourself! Go on doing your thing, brother.
Erwin agsalud agree with you...
Erwin agsalud Well said.
People are so quick to bring up shit about "America", man I see people of all nationalities being critical on here. Foreigners be itchin to say some shit about America lol. And to Mike keep doin ya thing man, if it works for you then all power to you. Forget the haters.
T. Brad how do you know he not American? lol and if ppl do so what shit we amwricans talk bout other countries the same way right.. just saying
Yea I love how you assume that every negative comment is from an American. You give an opinionated, critical comment about how you hate people giving opinionated, critical comments...and then you blame it on Americans. The hypocrisy is palpable.
There is alot of good science to back up 1 meal a day.
Watching u inspires me to keep going i am on a mission i use to be 263 pounds but now i fast and it help me a lot i am currently at 182 thanks mike for every thing
OMAD....I gotta get back on this!!!! Especially after seeing this!!!! Yessir! Let's go!!!!
Started today. Thanks for the videos. I hope I can stick to it. I'm 290 trying to get down around 250
Mike read how to eat to live book 1 & 2... it's about eating one meal a day written by Elijah Muhammad... he talks about how it takes 24 hours for one meal to properly digest... anyway good shit bro stay strong...
wwwhbo74 exactly, i was going to say this but you beat me to it. You notice he gave a shot out to the book at the very end. i wonder y he didn't just come out and say it.
wwwhbo74 Mike has knowledge of self, he just doesn't come out and say so as to not alienate his fan base. the brother even has a crescent moon & star tatted.
I overstand...
First thing I thought of when he started this video, My cousin's that are in Public Enemy told me about this as well as my brother. Definitely going to try this recipe minus the salmon since I'm allergic. Also im going to read those books. Thanks
I have the book. This concept has been around forever, but lots of folks are just now catching on. The book even goes on to say at some point to eat one meal every other day, or every 3rd day. I currently do one meal a day (OMAD) since the beginning of the year. The start was tough, but I feel it is one of the best things I've done for my body.
I Really Like Mike, He is REAL and that is Refreshing, after seeing so many of these videos ...Thanks, Mike!!
Coming back and watching this video I like how Mike doesn’t seem so stuck up and stiff and nervous he seems really relaxed focus and confident in what he’s doing
mad respect on this video. you got me back on the Rashid train. keep up the healthy shit
I love how you swear when you talk about vegetables! 😂
Rollo Larson: ...Or it is a passionate enthusiasm with a disregard for cultural norms. But who am I to judge?
Rollo Larson it's called passion and who are to judge what language he uses. It's your opinion and not the standard of life.
Rollo, i agree , what you are saying is maybe 'generally' correct. Especially when arguing/debating. But it certainly isn't always the case. I also agree with Andrew, that many of us disregard cultural norms :)
Rollo Larson He's defined by himself not your opinion. People whom are WEAK in defining themselves have no authority over anyone else, but themselves. You ignorance did have to listen to his video as you're not doing him any good or harm...
Go fuckin meditate. Namaste bitches...
You're awesome dude. Really intelligent with the diet and obviously growing as a person every day
Started eating once a mike like 2-3 weeks and I went from 205 to 195... never been under 200 since 2014-2015 ... never felt better thanks bro ... finally losing my dad body lol ... but it was hard but I feel so much better and happier bro thanks a lot big guy
Intermittent fasting plus plant based protein. Mike Rashid is the fucking man!!!
sergsrt8 he also eats animal protein
Salman Memon true. he limits his amount though and maybe eventually he won't be eating it
Plus a rake of D'Bol in the arse now and then .
Lol. and high does of tren
he's the man because he does IF, and eats plant based protein? lul
"If you can't hang, you can't hang. I ain't gonna judge you".
That’s how it supposed to be
one of your best videos. health over everything
Great video! I have been plant based for 2.5 years now. I lost a lot of muscle mass. I don't take supplements. Most of my "usable" protein comes from beans. I eat minimal processed foods and really like seeing how you made this meal. For me, once I got past caring what people thought about me, I didn't care about being bulky. I feel better then I ever have at 45 years old eating plants twice a day and working out 6-7 days a week. Thanx for the video man💪😎
Mike, my dude, you killin me cuttin all your veggies with the letter opener paring knife lol. Unless this part of your chest n tri's day, where's your chef knife yo??
Jay Valadez lmao I said the same thing. Struggle knife. I see a bigger knife in the back
Jay Valadez, "I like to take on difficult tasks." lmao
Jay Valadez hilarious and so true.
I'm joked
I'm sooo dead.....😂 😂
Now this is the kind of person id trust. Body builders who talk too smooth and could be mistaken for TV presenters , I don't trust at all. I'm gonna try this. 🤔
Ray Lmn hey it works fasted cardio all that shit is real and the truth is out fast eat less eat minerals take multi drink water and take protein to feed muscle get lean as fuck and feel good and live a lot longer then normal expectations
Ray Lmn do it I'm slowly transitioning myself to eat only fish fruits and vegetables that's it. Feels great for natural energy
Gib Live 😂😂😂
You are very motivational. This is my first time watching your videos and after watching this I feel as I can do better things to improve my health to live a better life. I also appreciate the way that you explain everything so perfectly to where I can understand. Thank you 💪🏽
He said "that spicy sh*t, but if you can't hang you can't hang I ain't gon judge you" 😂😂😂😂 I love Mike!
I've lowered the meat in my diet lately also and increased fruit/veg intake
this guy is pretty real
Who would dislike this, why? I'm loving this and putting it with my collective knowledge. True food for thought and action. Mike from the heart much appreciated.
You be bringing the positive on healthy eating bro. I am ready to start eating healthy for my age 48 bro. Learning to make Vegan foods...💪😁
i've been folliwing this guy for years, mantras, eating habits, lifting habits and i'm so glad he's bringing up this style of dieting. and keto. I do keto and eveyrone i know is weird about it. but i have never felt better in my lift. i sleep well and less hours, no more allergies, i haven't touched my inhaler in two months three days. i used to always wake up with congestion. no more of that either. the food industry and bodybuilding industry has miscontrued a lot of what the body wants and needs. i don't eat nearly as much protein and i'm almost twice and yolked but not soft big. my skin quality is great, OH and I CAN BREATHE OUT OF BOTH NOSTRILS it hasn't been like that consistently ever!! only when i eat minty food or wasabi. give up the bad carbs people. it really works.
don't like veggies? make veggie smoothies
don't like cooking? crock pot or one pan oven meals
always hungry? eat more satiating fats
-- drink 8oz of water before every meal. but not after ( i hear it messes with digestion )
dont' boil food if you're not gonna drink the water, all the nutrients are sucked out.
always bake or microwave (you don't get cancer from the microwave.......................................... -_-)
always use himalayan salt not iodized or regular sea salt. (more minerals in pink salt and you wont get bloated ever.)
i've only been at this for a short time but I can tell you... i'm never turning back.
cracked me up when you said you don't wanna build muscle to the point where you don't have a neck anymore. LMAO
Gotta respect this mans honesty. He admits when he doesn't know something and why he thinks he might be right but also might be wrong. Much love. Do as he says but DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH.
We need those greens for our prostate.
Mike Rashid Wise man Bro! Respect and Salute, Blessings. You inspire me it feels good to know a man of your stature eat how i eat. I definitely know im doing the right thing. Thank you
Mike Rashid MIKE YOU MY MAN FOR REAL, YOU EAT LIKE ME BROTHA,LOL LOL LOL
I feel you on the kid thing and I want to be in shape for my kids and live a long life too.
I bake em too, sea salt and olive oil, thanks for this.
Thank you for reminding me to be mindful of what I put into my body. I will start adding more vegetables and fruits to my diet.
"I didn't really have time the other day but.. TODAY I GOT TIME!"
Nice Mike - I do warrior diet & eat one big meal
- I feel energetic
- can lift heavy weight
- & I don't need any energy amino or supplement pre workout
nice to see the evolution in knowledge and approach. kudos bro
OMAD is the most sustainable lifestyle ever. I don’t even feel hungry anymore and feel more energetic. I eat a ton of vegetables to break my fast then an hour later have my big meal filled with carbs and protein.
I do the same thing. Eat veggies to break my fast then enjoy my good carbs and proteins I never count calories and dropping weight. Some days I break the fast with bunch of fruits
@@victorassessing7 it takes all the annoying parts of losing weight out of the equation like counting calories, tracking macros, etc...

I'm so glad I ran into this video because I have been saying to myself I want to eat to live, not live to eat and this video has inspired even more to eat healthy, stop drinking, and become totally fit. Thanks!!!!!!
Remember with such nutrient dense foods it's easy to stay full for the day. The body wants nutrients not just calories
eyeinsee then why tr do i want dat cheezburger fries, extra cheese ketchup and double BB8 drizzle?
Ubaid Shah you want those things because your body has become addicted to the chemicals of sugars in them
Ubaid Shah
adorable to see him cooking
Big respect man! The things you say make sense!
I was just explaining this way of life to a friend and it popped up in my feed so Now i know it really works and others agree ty
I'm the fat dad Mike was talking about and I'd much rather race with my son.Working on intermittent fasting, not eating until 1 or 2 pm for the first time in the day and then not again until 6-7 for dinner and trying to keep it lighter. Down 18lbs so far.
Mike Rashid will do, thank you for responding!
Sweet I too am trying the intermittent fasting, I am not super fat but over weight. I started at the gym 233lbs 5ft10 28%bf the first 10lbs came off lightning fast but I was stuck at 220 for 3 weeks until I started eating 1 meal a day with fruit or veggie snacks when hungry the rest off the day and BOOM passed that 220 instantly. Now down to 214 and 24%bf only been working out 2 months. More concerned with bf% at this point than weight but I was determined to get below that 220 mark.
Mike Rashid instead of soy sauce I highly recommend as a substitute - (Braggs: Amino Acids) it tastes exactly like soy sauce but is super healthy for you
Mike Rashid also try 1 fresh squeezed lemon in a glass of water 1st thing when you wake up. Also add some fermented foods like kimchi, sauerkraut, kefir etc look it up
judahryan Braggs aminos basically is Tamari...a natural soy sauce.
You’re very knowledgeable and informative but most of all I luv your aura!
I don't keep any food in my intestines. Once i'm done eating its toilet time and its a wrap.
lol
The body can't process corn. Heavy meats can take up to 30 hours to process....
I too have a food addiction. My personal view is that the concept of eating 5 to 6 smaller meals a day contributed to me never feeling full and more easily justifying eating "another" snack. For me it contributed to me eating too many processed foods and too many calories. I find that planning and preparing one meal a day is so much easier, less time consuming, and allows me to make the contents of the food to be of much higher quality as a result. Surprisingly it also helps me to stay more disciplined in my relationship with food. I have already eaten my calories for the day. As a result I stay on track with my caloric needs and don't overeat.
