Over the next 2 weeks I’ll be sending you 7 strategies that will help you add 7 pounds of lean, athletic muscle in 21 days.
#1 Develop an Effective Morning Routine
Tips:
1. No snooze button.
2. 4 Whole Eggs – I’m leaving the yolk in, and not opting for egg whites. The yolks are packed with nutrients that your body needs when you’re training hard.
3. Steel Cut Oats + fruit + 2% – Whole Milk + 1 avocado – I like getting a lot of my calories from animal fats (saturated fats) and monounsaturated fats. They actually increase our testosterone levels when we process them. Steel cut oats are also great. You’ll notice that I don’t have a lot of “fast” carbs in my meals. They primarily consist of “slow” carbohydrates.
I have bacon in the video because I LOVE bacon, and I see the benefits of animal fats. But I’ll have bacon a few times a week, I won’t have it every morning. There is such thing as going overboard. But you want your breakfast to be high in Protein, Good Fats, Slow Carbohydrates, and Nutrients.
4. I hit the computer for 30 or so minutes just to start my day with some productivity. I do this before I eat, shower, or whatever. I like getting something done first thing. It sets you up for a great day. If you have an activity that will bring clarity to your day, or give you a good mental boost, incorporate it into your daily routine.
I’ll also start my day off with an hour of ‘learning’ from time to time. This could be reading, or doing an online course on something I enjoy.
