By far the best and most realistic “what I eat in a day” video on RUclips. You didn’t over complicate it at all with the measuring of food and counting of calories. GREAT VIDEO 💯
Really good video! We are an active couple in our 80's and are all about healthy aging. We still strive for a healthy body, a calm mind, and a positive outlook. And we feel better than ever! For us, switching to a whole food plant-based diet was a key in us both overcoming life-threatening diseases 14 years ago. We are doing research for our new RUclips channel and hope to inspire others. Learned a lot here. Thank you!
Thanks for all the you’ve given me through my weight loss process it’s been so difficult since I’m 41 about be 42 I was 320lbs I’m now 280lbs I still have a lot to loss but thank for men over 40 tips you have been providing for us Testosterone is a area where I’ve been struggling as well so I’m taking some of your tips 🙏🏾 hopefully I’ll start seeing the difference in that area as well
I'm in my 40s, and am a few weeks into using this as a blueprint for my daily nutrition. I'm not overweight, I'm tall and lean - but not athletic and always tired. Combining exercise with this plan has already yielded great results in terms of energy and feeling good. Thanks for making this!
Love how simple this is! I’ve had an understanding of macros for quite a few years but have always found the complication of weighing and/or trying to hit the right percentages a pain based on C/F/P. Definitely going to try the 4 part plate approach of C/F/P/V, seems like a breeze! 👍
Hey Funk… awesome video! Thanks for sharing your daily meals.. it’s definitely a great refresher and guide to follow. I’m a huge fan of all your metabolic workouts that you and your lovely wife Angela put up on your page. I usually do one of them in the morning before work, and train BJJ at night. Because of the extra output, I was wondering what you recommend for in between snacks and/or extra calories that could give extra energy and not leave me hungry. I’m especially very hungry after striking workouts classes as well. I don’t really do the protein bars cause of all the sugar and junk they have in the ingredients so Il usually have mixed unsalted nuts/ apples/protein shakes/or mixed berries to keep my hunger satisfied while burning the extra calories. Please let me know if there’s something I’m missing you that recommend. Thanks again for all of your expertise and awesome videos. I’ve been following you on RUclips for close to 17 years. Wishing you guys all the best! -Julian F.
I live on meat and eggs, though I have a chocolate or a pizza once a month, not gonna lie 😉 Within a year I lost 16kg, lost my fatty liver, lost my pre-diabetes, balanced out my bloodwork, BP and glucose levels for the first time in my life and got back into weights and martial arts. I feel like I'm 30 again (when I was a PT), thanks to your workouts, Funk! Great no bullshit video, as always!
Diet is by far the toughest I can train anytime with no problem.. I have a hard time eating balanced. I'm a breakfast food person and starting to like chicken and pork more than red meat . I will be 40 in a few months and the belly fat won't leave . Thanks for the information funk
Hell yeah! Im motivated, I like this approach of just making a balanced easy healthy plate! I'd like to see more diet options. I am not sure if I can get some of that food where I am located. I live in Prague Czech Republic
That's roughly between 1600-1900 cals in these 3 meals. So this guy, with this built, can maintain this amount of muscle with only this food? That's only good if one's cutting or on a diet to loose fat in general. That's not enough to build muscle (progressively overload), sustain demanding workouts, or help your body recover from training in general. The quality of the food is fine of course, the quantity is the problem. So either this guy, who I otherwise really like as a trainer and follow his workouts, snacks in-between his main meals, which is fine if he didn't want to show in the video (but he should have mentioned for informative purposes), or if he doesn't [unless he is a freak of nature and a very lucky man] then he is on HRT and/or some performance enhancing substance(s) (which is again fine but he should have mentioned to avoid creating unrealistic expectations to people). That's with all due respect; I'm no hater, that's my honest opinion. Peace
Sooo good. I love pan grilled salmon (skin side up) and throw in frozen broccoli to quick steam. Thank you Funk Roberts for such great helpful videos! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾✨😋🤗👏👏☺️🙏🌈😊
don't wanna stir anything up here but if you're eating oats then it's probably ok to eat brown rice as well. . does anyone have a source that proves phytoestrogens reduce testosterone? I thought the jury was still out on that with so many conflicting studies. . I just read that refined grains have the opposite effect to what this video says. . not trying to knock this video. Love your content Funk.
Not realistic long term, tried this and it worked for awhile but didn’t break my plateaus. No matter what, eventually you have to track and count calories up and down.
Carbs aren't essential. Just make it easier, eat more greens, fermented cabbage, cruciferous vegetables, meat an eggs. Easy. With lot's of herbs, spices and some real hot sauce.
Not even close to enough. I was on this program and you built very little to no muscle. He won’t reply because he swears up and down this is the way to eat to lose fat and build muscle. ITS NOT! You need way more calories than this and more strength resistance training not HIIT. Hope this helps
Hi, can anyone point me to any research that suggests brown rice increases estrogen, please? I have been interested in nutrition for a long time and seriously started researching and planning meals since I took up MMA training a year ago (at age 56). Brown rice has more nutrients and therefore better energy to calories ratio than white rice. However, it is much higher than white rice in naturally absorbed arsenic which we all know increases risk of cancer (boiling rice for 5 mins then discarding the water before adding fresh water to continue cooking is a good way to reduce the arsenic). Because of this it is recommended to limit brown rice consumption to once or twice a week. Brown rice is in a lot of plant-based powder proteins that I take so I consume more than what is recommended. Nearly all information exults brown rice as extremely beneficial and I would love to understand if brown rice has a second strike against it - estrogen increase. Does white rice really have enough nutritional value other than just being a carbohydrate?
All I know abt the arsenic is that I used to use brown rice protein daily and developed high arsenic levels in my blood, so I avoid rice in general now
Insted of having oatmeal with water, can i have it with Almond milk and skip the almonds/cashews and it would be the same thing right? 🤷♂️ I don't like oatmeal with water.
Same here. Oatmeal with water just doesn't taste right. I do my oatmeal with almond milk and it tastes great. I don't like almonds or cashews, I put in the other stuff he talked about (blueberries, bananas).
Funk, the microwave is bunk, it kills all the nutrients in your foods. Also the radiation created by the microwave stays in the food for 45 minutes after heating.
Hey Funksters! Hope all is great! I am switching the weekly video posts to Thursday at 12PM EST and this week I will add a workout on Friday!!!! Thanks so much for helping my channel reach 600K. I LOVE ALL YOUR SUPPORT..A lot of you have been asking about shooting a full day of nutrition video for MEN and so here it is! - LIKE, SHARE and COMMENT below. Also BIG NEWS COMING SOON which will give you ADDITIONAL weekly workouts, monthly challenges, LIVE Q&A's and NEW Monthly Workout programs - Stay Tuned - Funkster

"......and finally my vegetables. I have yellow beans here....."
I was like....awww man, I thought those were french fries!! Lol

Funk,
I’m in Phase 4 and loving it. You have to make more videos like this one. Awesome video
I would love to see Angela's full day of eating.
Yessssssssssssss
Yessssss please!!!!
Me too please!
This is a channel for MEN over 40.
@@excessivecabbage7350 we realize that. However, he frequently features Angie in the videos so our request isnt far fetched.
Thanks for all the you’ve given me through my weight loss process it’s been so difficult since I’m 41 about be 42 I was 320lbs I’m now 280lbs I still have a lot to loss but thank for men over 40 tips you have been providing for us Testosterone is a area where I’ve been struggling as well so I’m taking some of your tips 🙏🏾 hopefully I’ll start seeing the difference in that area as well

Take trt

You're welcome! GET IT DONE!
When you make it this simple, diet does not look that scary ;D
7:00 am
12:00 pm
19:00 pm
Just 3 Meals?
Orange? Aples? and other foods between Meals?
Tea? Coffee?
Protein after workouts?
🤜🤛
I eat 4-6 times a day
check out intermitting fasting and why , eating more then 3 x a day keeps your insuline levels too high.
I put my oatmeal in the fridge at night and in the morning it has absorbed all the water more softer
Perfect. Very helpful to the majority. Not these complex videos that take the length of this video to do breakfast. Thanks, Funk 💪🏽
Super great content & to the point - no time wasted & realistic! Thanks man!
Love how simple this is! I’ve had an understanding of macros for quite a few years but have always found the complication of weighing and/or trying to hit the right percentages a pain based on C/F/P.
Definitely going to try the 4 part plate approach of C/F/P/V, seems like a breeze! 👍
Glad it was helpful!
You are the Man, great tips and energy with high level of knowledge in every video.
Realistic and reasonable easy to follow-going to pattern my my meals after this meal plan and see what happens in a month!

Excellent presentation. Makes absolute sense. A nutritionist would be pleased!
I live on meat and eggs, though I have a chocolate or a pizza once a month, not gonna lie 😉

I feel like I'm 30 again (when I was a PT), thanks to your workouts, Funk!
Great no bullshit video, as always!
I tried to make my own diet, but it didn't work. I went to *Agoge Diet* and let them create diet plan for me. I am delighted with the result
Thanks Funk, very useful to see it laid out.
No snacks or dessert?
Brilliant video. So simple without having to weigh and count everything. I will try this!
You’re a national treasure funk!!
Definitely need to take more of this on board as I get older 👍💪
Thanks for your content man. Super helpful and straight to the point. 👍
Diet is by far the toughest I can train anytime with no problem.. I have a hard time eating balanced. I'm a breakfast food person and starting to like chicken and pork more than red meat .
I will be 40 in a few months and the belly fat won't leave . Thanks for the information funk
Great Video, Thank you
what if you are type one diabetic over 40 and trying to reach a better weight and health, you think I can use this too?
Funk you're the best. Thanks and bon appetit!
Hell yeah! Im motivated, I like this approach of just making a balanced easy healthy plate! I'd like to see more diet options. I am not sure if I can get some of that food where I am located. I live in Prague Czech Republic
Great video straight to the point I luved it👌
Love this video Funk!
I just started eating Oats back in November. The Breakfast,Lunch,& Dinner looks good. Only thing I disagree with was the disgusting Pork
Brown rice isn't good for you? I thought they said to stay away from White rice. I'm confused.
I heard from a nutritionist that white rice was Superior. I’m so confused
Great video. Funk what are your thoughts on intermittent fasting?
Thanks Funk. What an amazing video.

Thank you so much for sharing my Brother.
Excellent advice Funk!
Great video- nice and simple. Do you not eat a protein bar, shake, snacks throughout the day?
Funk Roberts, thanks. Great video. I've recently stopped eating meat. I've been eating fish, but can you suggest an equivalent meat alternative?
Sooo good. I love pan grilled salmon (skin side up) and throw in frozen broccoli to quick steam. Thank you Funk Roberts for such great helpful videos! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾✨😋🤗👏👏☺️🙏🌈😊
Great video, thank you!
Thanks for the nutrition advice.
Simple and to the point.
Thanks alot very inspiring
Honestly, thank you for your content.💪
Subscribed!!!! :)
Yes mark. Killing it
I started your meal plan here, I will let you know how it go’s.

This is great. Does it apply to Women over 40 too?
How many grams of Protien a day should we eat when over 40??
Are eggs not a part of your diet? If not, why? Thank you. Great channel!
Instead of easting 2 portions of meat in a day I would eat two boiled eggs for lunch
Wonderful video
Hey Funk, great video, thanks! I don't eat pork - what about lean beef/steak? Or ground turkey? How often can I eat those?
Thank you
Shoutout Funk
hey Funk.. nice video. what is exacty the problem with the brown rice. I love the brown rice.
Brown rice is Estrogenic which means it increases estrogen in MEN...estrogen blocks testosterone productions and causes belly fat and manboobs!
I thought brown rice was the healthiest choice ? (Fibre )
wow, very good
Top metabolic coach 👍
i eat a gigantic bowl (down from 2 lol) of choc mini wheats before bed. i feel im doing it wrong.
Why brown rice is estrogenic?
Wait what? Brown rice not good?
Hello, I'm looking for a lower back pain-friendly workout using body weight and kettle bell.
Funk can you show me what's up?
Interesting about the brown rice. Do you eat pasta?
Bro... can you put more videos up like this.....
Not realistic long term, tried this and it worked for awhile but didn’t break my plateaus. No matter what, eventually you have to track and count calories up and down.
Hi Funk !! Do you have to take a shake after your training?for exemple if i finish my training at 10 a.m..
Bro what is all those vitamins on your counter in the background what's all that can you share?
What you did was you cooked the egg noodles right?
Funk! What advice do you have for those of us that are plant based?
Man, I struggle eating like this!
Loved your shirt. =D
I need this!
Carbs aren't essential. Just make it easier, eat more greens, fermented cabbage, cruciferous vegetables, meat an eggs. Easy. With lot's of herbs, spices and some real hot sauce.
What about all those other pills over there on the counter?
Microwaves are NOT necessary and downright DANGEROUS!
"Three meals per day" sounds like sweet music in my ears :)
I can't find the leanpro 30 on your website 😫
thoughts on carnivore diet?
I love guac, but hate avocado alone. Not a veggie fan... so yeah, I struggle!
Do you snack in between or only eat the three meals a day?
I wish he would reply to this. I don't think 3 meals is enough to BUILD new muscle.
Not even close to enough. I was on this program and you built very little to no muscle. He won’t reply because he swears up and down this is the way to eat to lose fat and build muscle. ITS NOT! You need way more calories than this and more strength resistance training not HIIT. Hope this helps
Hey Funk, hope well. Wanted to ask can we replace the chicken with anything veg?....LUNCH
My partner is prediabetic with high blood sugars and was told NO oatmeal or sweet potatoes? What do you think? Thanks!!

Will not increase estrogen. White rice is just easier and faster to digest
I'm a huge fan! Brown rice is Estrogenic? Says who? Hmm...
What macros does funk recommend?
What do you drink with your meal?
Any uk version of that protein powder?
Insted of having oatmeal with water, can i have it with Almond milk and skip the almonds/cashews and it would be the same thing right? 🤷♂️ I don't like oatmeal with water.
Same here. Oatmeal with water just doesn't taste right. I do my oatmeal with almond milk and it tastes great. I don't like almonds or cashews, I put in the other stuff he talked about (blueberries, bananas).
You are loosing fibre that way
Why are you hitting a punching bag with no gloves lol
Bro breakfast looks like someone literally shit in your cereal
What if you don’t like oats?
Where can i get lean pro 30 protein powder?
Funk, the microwave is bunk, it kills all the nutrients in your foods. Also the radiation created by the microwave stays in the food for 45 minutes after heating.
What's a good alternative to Avocado? I cant stomach them well. Thanks y'all
I also add I tea spoon of coconut oil to my porridge
You are the best

Just subbed your channel. @FunkRoberts do you throw a protein shake in there after a workout? Or just the 3 meals in a day? Thanks!
Hollow my brother
No snacks 😊
