So, honestly, is the only way to lose weight and become lean if you enjoy let's say burgers, to only have that 4 times a month, and then eat egg whites and chicken every day while starving yourself?
@@garyanderson4451 You haven't got to starve yourself. You know exactly what is good for you. Eat the foods you love (junk food) rarely and most of the time eat salads/veggies/fruits, chicken/turkey/fish and drink plenty of water. You're not an idiot. You've just been inundated by 'fitness gurus' claiming there's a new way to get lean. There isn't and never has been. Eat natural foods and do plenty of exercise. It's that simple and yes it's that hard. But if you're honest about getting healthy then why would you care how hard it is? If you see someone only eating junk food but look amazing then they're taking PED's. The human body hasn't changed a thing and there is no loophole. Sweat, sweat, sweat and then eat right. Give it a couple years and people ask you what you've done differently. You can tell them I stopped listening to fitness gurus and started listening to my body. Eat a salad with some chicken and do a 5 mile walk. See how good you feel afterwards. That's what you're body is craving. Not 'magic pills' and a burger. Nothing in life worth having is also easy getting. Do the hard work or get fat. Up to you. Good luck and let us all know in a year how it went down.
I always found it hilarious how their “calorie deficits don’t work, cardio doesn’t work” ads popped up right around the time I had successfully lost significant weight from calorie deficit and exercise.
On top of that it's an example of the motte and bailey fallacy, using the statement that cardio and calorie deficits don't work (which has truth to it in the sense that they don't work for everyone especially if it's an insulin or stress issue), and they use that relatively grounded statement to try to legitimize their insane statement that eating pizza and taking this pill will make you lose weight and get jacked lol
It’s literally impossible to lose fat without a calorie deficit, anyone who has ever lost fat has been in a calorie deficit, any diet that works for fat loss works because it creates a calorie deficit
Lost 20 pounds in a month and a half by cutting out beer drinking and eating one meal a day with light snacks in early-mid morning. As soon as you get over a shitty week, it gets better. Telling me that putting the fork down and stop drinking won’t get me out of trouble since it was what got me in trouble is a load of crap.
yea but u have to be careful to not eat too low calories otherwise the body will start blocking the weight loss process and will consume way less energy and start storing fat. Some people think that the lower calories you eat the more you lose weight, which is wrong and dangerous. at max you have to eat 500 less calories than you burn, no more.
I am so happy that I have accidentally watched a video for exposing him and researched and found this one, because recently they have bombarded me with advertisements and I have sometimes wondered if I should check their program and what they are offering. But now I am glad that I didn’t. Thanks 🙏🏻
I myself enjoy working out, primarily body weight exercises. But why would I want to fall for the scams of weight loss? I'm interested in GAINING weight since I'm almost comparable to the skinny guy in the old Charles Atlas ads from comic books who gets sand kicked in his face by the infamous beach bully.

This video was just sent to me. If people only understood the power of marketing and retargeting with ads they would understand why a company like VSHRED is always growing despite ripping people off and giving them bogus advice. Whats the old saying? A sucker is born every minute? Sad, but true. Dont be a sucker guys. Educate yourselves!
I was an idiot...started experiencing unusual weight gain. and I had been a personal trainer/conditioning coach for 15 yrs, and everything by body used to respond to, was now not...so I was desperate. I did pay vshred for the initial cost (I think like 30 bucks) and tried his pre-packaged workouts...It did nothing. I knew better, and now I know how ppl can fall into this scam when feeling desperate. Turns out, I was having major thyroid and adrenal issues. I am now on meds, and going back to the basics (running, sprinting, weight training, hiit and pilates, and I am back on track with some modifications suggested per Dr regarding my thyroid. So glad this is coming out! I LITERALLY paid for my subscription to RUclips to STOP HAVING TO WATCH HIS TERRIBLE NON-STOP ADS! he's annoying as shit and hopefully this stops them!
it's the excess weight that brings these conditions on ... losing weight through a proper healthy diet and exercise will get rid of all your meds ... I repeat ... ALL YOUR MEDS ... and normalize your blood pressure. Try it. High protein, vegetables, fruit, NO CARBS, NO SUGAR, NO JUNK FOOD ... and of course a little exercise 3 to 4 times a week will speed your recovery up.
Same here, and how I ended here as well, it's sad that marketing tactics are more relevant than actual facts with the mass public, and I am not even in the US.
after spending 2 years getting fit myself, i've learned that 98% of fitness products and services are a scam. consistent and safe workouts, water and clean food is all thats needed. period
Not sure if I happened to let that ad play out, but I swear I don’t recall ever seeing a straight answer to that question in the ad. I probably skipped it halfway 🤦♂️

Dude, I fell for it and im not even a gullible guy. because i was a beginner, he put me through sooo much pain. now that i moved away from his product and independently found ways to loose weight my way.. I have lost 25 pounds in almost 3 and a half months.
@@ryanbutler8518 oh... I thought his product actually gave you pain as in kidney injury and needed dialysis or something along those lines... I see there was a lot of frustration there ok ok... Thanks.
I’ve never heard of this guy or company. No idea why RUclips algorithm even put this video into my feed, but it was a very interesting and informative 13 minutes. Very well-researched and well-presented. Glad I watched it, so thanks for putting out such important content.
V shred s videos in a nutshell: "Yeah, so basically, almost, you have the, actually, triceps, no, stretching the cable, biceps,uh,...cardio, body type, yes, take the body type quiz NOW
In the ads about body type, he talks for like, 40 minutes like this: "Yes, in this video, we will present you with the key to the best shape you've ever had. This secret is so awesome and never thought about before, and we will tell you in a minute" *40 minutes later* *bulshit* *keeps beating around the bush* *doesnt say it* So that s why we value this very thing so much, and instead of telling you it, I ll pressure you to buy my supplements".

@@brettjosh Very kind, man. Appreciate it! Always good to hear. If you want to chat more about how you put all this together give me a shout. Maybe we could do a chat over Zoom or something for a future video 👍. No worries if not.
Same! Always felt so sketchy for some reason. Glad I work in the industry to realize why. Unfortunately there’s too many who don’t and get duped with the “super secret and simple solution” he peddles.
@@chopzmasta07 I know barely anything about any of these channels being talked about, but cut the dude some slack, he was being humble and positive towards another and just sharing positive feedback. It's ok to rag on people when they are messing up, but not when they are doing something positive.
@@mck1972 You just do it at night in an abandoned communist build apartment. /S You start at the top with a Romanian Deadlift and only really hinge at the hips, lowering the weight to just below the knees to mid-shin height before going back up again.

RUclips only cares about $$$ Not its creators or viewers. They will censor any video for "false information" with the facts and evidence to back it up but let ads run that are 100% false info. They just want the money from ads
Athlean-X ain't much better, tbh. Straight up lying that he uses gear. Sorry, but hating V Shred doesn't mean you have to love Athlean-X... The moral of the story might be to not trust anybody who "lies for the purpose of selling you something". Period.
@@demun6065 The difference is that athlean x's workouts and tips are actually useful. V shred's advices are 90% of the time absolute dogshit but athlean x knows what he's talking about.
Never seen it. But depending on your specific goal, when you do cardio can be almost as important as doing it at all. Still sounds like a terrible ad. "Cardio burns fat, wrong cardio burns less fat and is less efficient" I guess is what the idea was.
I sadly fell for V Shred’s advertisements and bought their clean bulk programme last year as I was starting to gym I thought it good but after the 3 months of sloppy results I realised that I’d been scammed and that it was so bad. Thankfully now I’ve found a proper programme and am making real gains
I have seen these ads for YEARS and I never trusted or believed them. They would always give me an off feeling. I hope the world will see through the lies. Thank you for confirming my suspicions
As a middle aged lady I of course looked at the handsome guys commercial. He was so supportive and understanding. Yeah, I have seen those guys before. Never trust them.
Proper Psychological programming. They've learnt from the previous experience. They now treat you like a women. Focus on your looks your appearance your outside. Soon you'll be panicking like women that you have gained 3 grams of weight or have 1 grey hair or a wrinkle. The more macho on the outside the more fragile on the inside
Thanks for the video , i just got vshred ads through facebook and seen this iterating 30min video and from my first perspective "a normal guys without fitness knowledge" i thought to buy it , but the way was so suspicious that i had to do the research about him and literlity after 5 min google search on youtube and reddit i felt like a stupid to believe him. Thanks again for sharing this info you saved a soul today Edit: i need to add that it was waaaay weird to say it's a one time sale and it will be gone if you leave the sit.
@@Jennydear12 Same here, I always kept getting that ad, while listening to music and doing some work on another application. Then this ad pop up with that line. I just replied in voice "oh really?!" and skipped it. Etoro and Vshred ads like a nightmare for me.
@Charles Please include a reference on this, because nowhere has anyone said this. The only possibility of losing muscle from cardio is doing it too much without complementary weight training and proper nutrition, losing muscle from slow pace cardio is pure bullshit.
I can understand how someone who's tired of being overweight, has low self-esteem and lack own motivation can totally fall for anything that promises to help. But... honestly, as soon as I saw the first video of Vshred I immediately knew it wasn't real, scientific, or helpful. Remember guys! The best exercise is the Exercise That Gets Done. Don't start off with too high goals, start easy. Love you all.
Fake people with these ads are too easy to spot nowadays "If you want to increase your testosterone then stop drinking your food." He doesn't actually say that but it's close enough
@@thatsroughbuddy1407 The first one I ever saw he was like "stop eating the wrong foods and JUMPSTART YOUR TESTOSTERONE BRO!" and it was just pictures of burgers and steak/potatoes. Honestly I was initially put off by him because he's just douchey in the ads. His actual videos are nicer but only because he's doing his best to plagiarize AthleanX
Wow! I almost purchased one of their programs, but I didn't have the money (thank goodness!). Then the YT algorithm slowly started suggesting this kind of vids to me. Thanks for taking the time to share the truth. Appreciate it!
@@rise_and_reborn4048 haha yeah kinda. Greg has beef with almost all people who he calls out and don't take it as constructive criticism and either ignore him or don't take his advice and in either case sometimes they keep on doing what they were called out for

@@tahaghassemi2381 I think he means in mobile game ads they make the game seem really good and interesting but they’re really shitty just like V shread’s products
@Boruch Ber People should still eat what they want but LESS and avoid binge eating. Crash diet or forcing yourself in a specific diet would just backfire in the long run, not everyone has the discipline to maintain so anyway. Exercising and not binge eating is the key to losing weight gradually in my opinion, gradual weight loss is the best way rather than crashing yourself and end up going back to the usual habits of eating when they have achieved their weight.
@Boruch Ber Yeah, I read Zuby's Strong Advice fitness book and he preaches this very thing - you need to go into a caloric deficit, you need to strength train and do cardio, but most importantly - you need to go into a caloric deficit. He's also big about not being on your phone when you're in the gym.
I once fell for one of his ads and went to his website where I watched him talk for 40 mins. It wasnt even the end of the video, I just got so bored and realised that he had clickbaited me into watching that. I hate him with a passion
To be honest I'v been dragged to a similar ad and watched the whole 40 mins and in the end bought the program for 50$ 🤦♂️ shame even though I searched before buying I didnt find any negative reviews. I hate myself now
Thank you for this video. When I saw these V-Shred videos I knew something was not right and when he started selling those "burn" supplements I did some research on them and the side effects 😮 reminded me of those medication commercials they show on TV. When I was younger I struggled with my weight and was made fun of so I am no stranger to fat burning supplements. I took so many of those that it's a miracle I am still alive. My friend was a bodybuilder and she took fat burners... She had to get her gallbladder removed. Losing weight and keeping it off takes discipline. It can be done. I had several great personal trainers and I have learned a lot from them. You just have to do your research.
As a new guy, I agree. I knew Self-Help Fake Gurus were a thing, but never Body Builder Gurus He literally looks like a prime example of a body builder, But I learned that steroids were a thing and some bodybuilders could strategically take them to look natural while not saying they weren't
Great video! I almost got into V-Shred! Since I am an auditor and investigator of fraud and corruption, I just did my research and KNEW it was all BS. This video proves what I found in my research. Good job, Josh! GOOD JOB!!!
You don't need to do cardio to lose fat, it's not very effective for it actually it's mainly for cardiovascular health. You just need to be in a calorie deficit(eating less calories than you burn), eating enough protein, and preferably lifting weights to help hold onto muscle while losing the fat.
@@dgtsm9217 Yeah it would which isn't a good thing by the way you never want to do an extreme deficit unless you're around about 300 pounds give or take. It's best to stay around 300-500 calorie deficit.
I did the diet for about 5-6 months and lost almost 12kg which I was very happy about. I tried their exercises but I didn’t liked them, however I believe that the key for losing weight is diet. I have nothing bad to say about this program as long as you don’t expect to look like him only on a diet or their routine of exercises because it won’t work. But the diet was catered to my likes and to where I live because over here we don’t get everything that you would like in California.
Ikr he’s always like omg here’s these amazing tips that will help your diet. Then he says that same thing in a dozen different ways until the ad ends and you realize he hasn’t told you a dam thing...
I get his stupid "pizza vs salad" ad before every video even though I've already skipped it 20 times. I also get that girl in a bikini with the same conning tone telling me to stop doing cardio for fat loss. Girl I already stopped 6 years ago, leave me alone!!
@@ehjeieusywyay5165 Yea lmao, there are other things though, like being honest, funny and all of that.. but people value attractiveness a lot.. Those people in the ads are blinded by their own beauty
I got an ad from the female version of him, literally opened with “if you want to lose weight don’t do cardio, don’t do dieting. . .” And I skipped but wth is up with these damn people
How ironic that one of the ads I got during your video was...you guessed it...VShred. Screw Vince and his puppeteers selling crap. Keep up the great work.
I actually remember seeing a bunch of his ads way back when I just started getting into working out. It's kinda unbelievable how accurate the advertisement algorithm has gotten, to the point it can distinguish the beginners from everyone else and drown them in ads.
Not hard to do really when a lot of people Google things like "how to start working out" and "workouts for beginners." Remember that RUclips has been owned by Google for a while so every Google search you do is recorded and used to determine what you might want to watch when you get on RUclips. We're literally telling them what we want word for word, there's no real magic in it. The rest is just how confident they are in the fact that we are beginners based on the number of times we do similar searches and how recent our searches were.
The amount of times that I’ve almost fallen into his scheme because of these ads. He had me convinced that I was doing everything wrong, and I just need to listen to him to lose weight
The ad algorithms are very very accurate. I don't remember when and where but at some point some store built an algorithm so they could target ads better. They got into trouble because they started recommending baby related ads to a 16 year old girl so they had to apologize. A few weeks later the girl's dad came in and told them he is sorry and the girl really is pregnant. The algorithm examined what she was buying and came to a conclusion that her shopping pattern is similar to the pattern of pregnant women. Data is pretty fascinating
Mother Nature: I'll kill of 99% of all species and the majority of the humans that have ever lived in horrific ways. Vince: There's a biological loophole...
@@mostlypeacefulrowan8747 and u heard right it's called boofing and works with a lot of compounds and is more effective than a lot of mainstream methods.
Fitness is way simpler than people think, the reason why people don’t see results is because they try to halfass their workouts and diets for one week and then they give up telling themselves that they did everything they could, then they try to look for any programs offering a non existent shortcut
Habits. By checking for results immediately and often you defeat the process. Fat gain is designed to get you over winter and droughts. Without adversity, or simulated adversity, you won’t lose weight. And. Once you lose the weight, without restricting your own options, you’ll fall back into the glutinous state again. I twice offered skinny women Dove single serving chocolates. “I don’t eat that.”, was my answer. They recognized that eating just a little of sugar+fat+caffeine starts the addiction process. By not allowing it to start, they didn’t get on the road to weight gain.
I suppose it's just comes down to eating healthy and having a consistent exercise program. In Jan this year I decided to cut sugar and processed foods out of my diet, reduce the carbs and replace them with more fruit, veg, grass fed meat and fish. I exercise 4-5 days a week doing 50% resistance and 50% cardio. And iv never felt healthier. Im not "shredded" but I have lost a significant amount of fat and my muscles are getting bigger.

I’m still upset that a year ago I watched a half hour video waiting for him to get to the point and then he never did.
Same here, you're not the only one!
Lmao facts
"In just a minute I'm going to show you my 3 most guarded tricks, but first"
20 minutes later:
"I'm about to show you the 3 best tricks to get ripped"
Absolutely the same here, I posted a comment to highlight the fact - it disappeared!!!!
You sure that wasn't a video of a Democrat answering a question?
I was an idiot...started experiencing unusual weight gain. and I had been a personal trainer/conditioning coach for 15 yrs, and everything by body used to respond to, was now not...so I was desperate. I did pay vshred for the initial cost (I think like 30 bucks) and tried his pre-packaged workouts...It did nothing. I knew better, and now I know how ppl can fall into this scam when feeling desperate. Turns out, I was having major thyroid and adrenal issues. I am now on meds, and going back to the basics (running, sprinting, weight training, hiit and pilates, and I am back on track with some modifications suggested per Dr regarding my thyroid.
So glad this is coming out! I LITERALLY paid for my subscription to RUclips to STOP HAVING TO WATCH HIS TERRIBLE NON-STOP ADS! he's annoying as shit and hopefully this stops them!
it's the excess weight that brings these conditions on ... losing weight through a proper healthy diet and exercise will get rid of all your meds ... I repeat ... ALL YOUR MEDS ... and normalize your blood pressure. Try it. High protein, vegetables, fruit, NO CARBS, NO SUGAR, NO JUNK FOOD ... and of course a little exercise 3 to 4 times a week will speed your recovery up.
I literally got his “salad or pizza” ad in the middle of this video...

The most important part of the Romanian deadlift is performing the lift in Romania. Preferably while dead.
So you become a vampire?
Instructions unclear, bent over and lifted Romania
Ahhh, that's why I'm still small
XD
So you have to perform it as a Zombie
I've always hated V shreds ads. No cardio and eat anything you want? Yeah, right. Even HIIT has to be calibrated to the amount of food consumed

I mean you don't exactly need cardio per se, definitely good for you, but yeah if your diet is junk your body will be junk I totally agree with that

"Yeah, so basically, almost, you have the, actually, triceps, no, stretching the cable, biceps,uh,...cardio, body type, yes, take the body type quiz NOW
And signup for my free workout plan which tells you shit you already know and boom you get with that "pay 100 bucks now to reach your body goals"
In the ads about body type, he talks for like, 40 minutes like this: "Yes, in this video, we will present you with the key to the best shape you've ever had. This secret is so awesome and never thought about before, and we will tell you in a minute"
*40 minutes later*

how to lose weight in 3 hard, but real steps:
-Eat less
-Excercise more
-Try not to kill yourself doing either of the previous steps
You need some form of cardio to boost your metabolism or you'll hit a wall.
@@cemarz you lower calories but don't go too low
@Boruch Ber People should still eat what they want but LESS and avoid binge eating. Crash diet or forcing yourself in a specific diet would just backfire in the long run, not everyone has the discipline to maintain so anyway. Exercising and not binge eating is the key to losing weight gradually in my opinion, gradual weight loss is the best way rather than crashing yourself and end up going back to the usual habits of eating when they have achieved their weight.
And supplement v shred BURN.
@Boruch Ber Yeah, I read Zuby's Strong Advice fitness book and he preaches this very thing - you need to go into a caloric deficit, you need to strength train and do cardio, but most importantly - you need to go into a caloric deficit. He's also big about not being on your phone when you're in the gym.

Thank you for this video. When I saw these V-Shred videos I knew something was not right and when he started selling those "burn" supplements I did some research on them and the side effects 😮 reminded me of those medication commercials they show on TV. When I was younger I struggled with my weight and was made fun of so I am no stranger to fat burning supplements. I took so many of those that it's a miracle I am still alive. My friend was a bodybuilder and she took fat burners... She had to get her gallbladder removed. Losing weight and keeping it off takes discipline. It can be done. I had several great personal trainers and I have learned a lot from them. You just have to do your research.
"Pizza, or salad? Which one do you think I'm having for dinner tonight?"

You don't need to do cardio to lose fat, it's not very effective for it actually it's mainly for cardiovascular health.
You just need to be in a calorie deficit(eating less calories than you burn), eating enough protein, and preferably lifting weights to help hold onto muscle while losing the fat.
@@deathdeath1381 its almost as if burning calories would increase the deficit
@@deathdeath1381 you can't burn more calories with lifting weights than doing cardio dum@ss
@@dgtsm9217 Yeah it would which isn't a good thing by the way you never want to do an extreme deficit unless you're around about 300 pounds give or take.
It's best to stay around 300-500 calorie deficit.
The sad part is most people trust what he says just because he's jacked.
Additionally, this guy was NEVER overweight. Easy to get this look when you never had to lose much weight to get there.
He's jacked and tells people what they want to hear. He promises an easy way out. Ex: pizza vs salad.

As all fitness gurus...
I did the diet for about 5-6 months and lost almost 12kg which I was very happy about. I tried their exercises but I didn’t liked them, however I believe that the key for losing weight is diet. I have nothing bad to say about this program as long as you don’t expect to look like him only on a diet or their routine of exercises because it won’t work. But the diet was catered to my likes and to where I live because over here we don’t get everything that you would like in California.

@@ehjeieusywyay5165 Yea lmao, there are other things though, like being honest, funny and all of that.. but people value attractiveness a lot..
Those people in the ads are blinded by their own beauty
@@0bada905 Yeah it’s pretty sad how people don’t want to admit there’s a thing called natural selection
@@ehjeieusywyay5165 Many relationships are becoming pretty pointless nowadays anyways, so nothing of my concern xD
The fact that I clicked on this video and there was a v shred ad right before it was pure comedy 😂
Who else got the vshred “what am I eating tonight pizza or salad” ad
Me
I’ve got the ad where he said which food is not good for you? The banana, eggs, salad, or a fruit. It was damn annoying
Me!
YEA. I HATE IT
😂😂😂
I got an ad from the female version of him, literally opened with “if you want to lose weight don’t do cardio, don’t do dieting. . .” And I skipped but wth is up with these damn people
Like the video says, they target new people who want those claims to be the truth and don't know any better about the fact that they aren't.
Was it Holly Dolke? I think her program has a daily 15 minute workout and no food restriction…
I got that ad as I read this comment, it's still a v-shred ad actually, the guy even shows up and talks later.
I was thinking about seeing what he had to offer, but luckily this popped up on my recommendations, you've honestly saved me wasting my time and money
How ironic that one of the ads I got during your video was...you guessed it...VShred. Screw Vince and his puppeteers selling crap. Keep up the great work.
I actually remember seeing a bunch of his ads way back when I just started getting into working out. It's kinda unbelievable how accurate the advertisement algorithm has gotten, to the point it can distinguish the beginners from everyone else and drown them in ads.
Not hard to do really when a lot of people Google things like "how to start working out" and "workouts for beginners." Remember that RUclips has been owned by Google for a while so every Google search you do is recorded and used to determine what you might want to watch when you get on RUclips. We're literally telling them what we want word for word, there's no real magic in it. The rest is just how confident they are in the fact that we are beginners based on the number of times we do similar searches and how recent our searches were.
The amount of times that I’ve almost fallen into his scheme because of these ads. He had me convinced that I was doing everything wrong, and I just need to listen to him to lose weight
The ad algorithms are very very accurate. I don't remember when and where but at some point some store built an algorithm so they could target ads better. They got into trouble because they started recommending baby related ads to a 16 year old girl so they had to apologize. A few weeks later the girl's dad came in and told them he is sorry and the girl really is pregnant. The algorithm examined what she was buying and came to a conclusion that her shopping pattern is similar to the pattern of pregnant women. Data is pretty fascinating
"Biological loophole." Riiiiight. Mother nature loves building back doors into metabolic processes.
Laughs in RNAi
Mother Nature: I'll kill of 99% of all species and the majority of the humans that have ever lived in horrific ways.
Vince: There's a biological loophole...
"back doors into metabolic processes" is unironically a pretty good description for the asshole.
@@re_i_gn I heard suppositories are the fastest way to deliver drugs after blood injection.
@@mostlypeacefulrowan8747 and u heard right it's called boofing and works with a lot of compounds and is more effective than a lot of mainstream methods.
Most annoying ads. I skip every time I see this dude.
Pizza or salad?
The only ads that are more annoying than his ads are the grammarly ads.
@@WittyUsernamehere nah those are funny
@@thelastcuckbender2621 😂
Don't skip. Report.
Hey man, this is a really well-made documentary. Great job.
I don't consider this a documentary. I see it as a Public Service Announcement.
Fitness is way simpler than people think, the reason why people don’t see results is because they try to halfass their workouts and diets for one week and then they give up telling themselves that they did everything they could, then they try to look for any programs offering a non existent shortcut
EXACTLY
Habits. By checking for results immediately and often you defeat the process. Fat gain is designed to get you over winter and droughts. Without adversity, or simulated adversity, you won’t lose weight.
And. Once you lose the weight, without restricting your own options, you’ll fall back into the glutinous state again.
I twice offered skinny women Dove single serving chocolates. “I don’t eat that.”, was my answer. They recognized that eating just a little of sugar+fat+caffeine starts the addiction process. By not allowing it to start, they didn’t get on the road to weight gain.
I suppose it's just comes down to eating healthy and having a consistent exercise program. In Jan this year I decided to cut sugar and processed foods out of my diet, reduce the carbs and replace them with more fruit, veg, grass fed meat and fish. I exercise 4-5 days a week doing 50% resistance and 50% cardio. And iv never felt healthier. Im not "shredded" but I have lost a significant amount of fat and my muscles are getting bigger.
@@w-james9277 that’s exactly how you do it good for you!
And stress!
