How to get lean? The process of getting lean and how to lose fat is actually very simple. It's not easy, but getting a lean body is 100% something anyone can do. If you follow my 3-part plan on how to get lean - from my fat loss diet and fat loss training training, as well as the crucial steps I took to prevent fat regain - I guarantee you’ll get lean fast and, more importantly, maintain your ‘shredded body’ for good.

But before we dive into the plan, there’s a key difference between 'leaning out' and 'getting a shredded body'. The reality is your body naturally resists getting too lean. It’s why dropping below even just to 12-15% body fat can start making you feel terrible and why most people who get that lean struggle to stay there. You can avoid this by setting a realistic goal. If you are just starting out or don't have much dieting experience, aim for around 15-20%. And if you’re more experienced or have less fat to lose, aim for 12-15%. Those levels of leanness are still impressive and look fantastic, especially if you’ve built muscle along the way.
A recent study found that a more aggressive approach early on in the diet led to better fat loss results. So, how exactly did I apply this to get lean? Well, typically, during a diet, I’d eat around 2,300 calories. This time, however, the very first week of my diet, I ate just 1,200 calories a day. Now I HIGHLY recommend against this. I did this for an article to see how much belly fat I could lose in just 1 week. But, for the next 4 weeks after that, I still went aggressive. Eating just 1,900 calories a day. Surprisingly, it was easier than expected. Until things started going downhill in the fifth week. But, because I had started with such a steep deficit in the beginning, I was able to increase my daily calories by 300 to continue slowly losing fat without ever feeling like my diet was becoming unsustainable
However, regardless of whether you start out more aggressive or not when it comes to how to get lean, you’re going to have to eat fewer calories, and continue doing so for several weeks. Here’s exactly what I did to make my diet easy and enjoyable.
Let’s start with the most important macronutrient. Protein. Eat enough protein every meal. As a simple guide, open your hand. The protein portion in each meal should be at least the size of your palm. But now, let’s talk about the big one when it comes to getting lean. Cutting calories. You don’t have to eliminate carbs or fats entirely. Instead, it’s about modifying how much of them you eat. Tip: here’s how I made weekends work for me: a science-backed strategy called planned hedonic deviation (a fancy term for "treat meal”). Every Saturday or Sunday, I’d boost my intake by 500 to 800 calories to enjoy a big meal guilt-free. Sure, it technically slowed my weekly progress by a day, but it made sticking to the diet way more doable.
But, of course, it’s not enough to just focus on your diet. Combining it with a proper training plan can not only help you get a lean body faster, but also plays a crucial role in keeping the fat off long-term. For strength training, the hardest muscles to grow also tend to be at the highest risk of loss during a diet. To counteract this, keep the volume high for those muscles. But you shouldn’t completely neglect any muscle groups. A new study released just this year found that muscles that aren’t trained will likely be burned off for energy.
But lifting weights doesn’t burn nearly as many calories as you might think. The fewer calories you burn every day, the more you’ll have to cut from your diet, which makes sticking to it and getting lean a lot harder. But focus less on “cardio workouts” and just set a daily step goal. While 10,000 steps a day is often the recommendation, even for me that’s tough to fit into my schedule. So I aim for a more achievable 8,000 steps per day as my minimum.
So, I dropped about 1.5 lbs a week during the first 4 weeks with the more aggressive approach. Then, as expected, my progress slowed to about 0.5-1 lb per week in the last 4 weeks to get me down to 11.6% body fat. The plan definitely works.
But it’s not just about getting lean, it’s also about how you can maintain your results. So, here are 3 mistakes to avoid. First, not accounting for your drop in metabolism. Second, not adjusting your lifestyle for the long haul. Third, not staying active post-weight-loss. That’s why, for me, those 8,000 steps a day didn’t just stop once I got lean. In fact, they became even more critical, especially with a slower metabolism. This is why setting a realistic step goal that you can stick to long-term is crucial.

I've been dieting & training for 9 months now. I'm still not under 20% BF. Progress has been phenomenal though. Just wanted to share 3 things from my experience: 1. Fat loss (this is what you're aiming for not weight loss) will not be linear. You will lose fat, gain some back, the lose some more. 2. The reason for this is life. Either you forget to take a break from dieting, get injured, have a break up, something will happen. 3. By just slighly venturing away from your diet, a pizza here and there, get a burger on your way home from work, nothing serious, it will take around 4 days!! to lose 3-4 weeks of progress. But it's all fine, by this time you are already at a much lower BF% than you were and you will lose it again, just know that this will happen and get back to plan within a week!

The aggressive deficit at the beginning and then tapering off is actually the recommended way to go for obesity but not for someone trying to lean out. If your bmi is over 30% you can drastically reduce calories without losing muscle or needing a vitamin supplement. But as you drop below 30% you have to start decreasing the deficit more and more as your bmi gets lower. That aggressive calorie deficit in the beginning actually helps build better habits later though. The average honey bun has 480 calories in it, but 3/4 cup of rice and 2 oz of chicken is only around 350-375 calories. Which would you rather have if you only have 1200-1500 calories for the day? I really like that Jeremy said simple, but not easy. It is simple, but not easy to do. Im gonna start saying that now lol

This video is for those who want the look, Jeremy is a young dude huge advantage to be slimmer, more active, more need for calories , and not the tendency for people 40 plus to gently gather weight. This video though true is kind of BS . I think for those older getting down to under 20% is doable, and avoid the very hard last section. Ie you need to eat way less to maintain 12% than 20% , at 20% if you stop eating after 8pm you may feel slightly hungry , but some nights at 12% you will feel really hungry . Some good advice. plenty lean options for protein , milk , no ultra process junk, lots of greens, veggies, fiber , less more complex carbs, plenty of fluid. Fruit is fine especially post work out - berries etc really good. Don't skimp on good fats - avocado , EVOL, some nuts as stops hunger. Find that low calorie snack eg carrots, roasted chana ( chick peas ) whatever . I've loss 15 KG in last 10 months , hip to waist 82%, but like you , you have to be discipline . I have a big advantage I hate sugar , and love veggies and salads. My treats i love nuts, roasted chana , very dark chocolate and a few other low sugar things . Cardio except zone 2 is BS for losing weight. Strength training is more effective. Ie hard cardio work , makes hunger. I also hate low grade pizza , burgers ( Macdonald's is crap , sweet buns, not teeth needed ) . Anyway don't eat mammals anymore , no need, still eat chicken and fish

Do not under any circumstance remove carbs entirely without consulting a doctor. Carbs are absolutely vital to the normal functioning of your body, particularly your brain. The ketogenic diet was developed primarily to treat schizophrenia and is not recommended for anyone else, and even that diet only cuts carbs 70 - 80%. Reducing carbs is great but your body requires all three macronutrients.

For me a diet based on satiety per calorie and low caloric dense foods really helps. I lost 37 pounds without hunger, without counting calories, without cardio or increase step count. The idea is to severely reduce or remove all high caloric dense food and eat mostly medium and low caloric density. Cravings are bad at first but if you stick to it it gets easier over time. Strength training is essential to maintain lean body mass. It has been shown in studies that whole eggs are better for weight loss than eating egg white only. I don't know how that works and it doesn't make much sense to me but it seems to work that way. Based on that study I lean down eating 3 whole eggs a day. Some things are counter intuitive. Apple has calories but a blank recommendation to eat more apples is enough to induce weight loss in overweight people. From personal experience eating raw carrots is even better. They have low calories and high satiety

1. Diet: Go hard from the start, then increase calories as your body tells you. Take breaks from your diet. Have cheat days. 2. Training: weight training is key. Train all muscle groups so you don’t lose muscles. Cardio is good to have but not HIIT or running. Just integrate walking into your day. 8k-10k per day as a target. 3. Staying lean - your body is designed to hold on to weight as you drop more. So your metabolism drops as you diet. And it gets harder and harder to lose and maintain as you get lower in your body fat. So have a plan. Walk more …

I've been eating despite never feeling that hungry in the cut so I think it's time I expose myself to actual, true hunger since at this point I'm sure that I have either been overeating or experiencing massive water retention, but I'll definitely have to reduce the running.

I'm just ending a cut, down to 17.3% from 19.8%. I'm happy about that, but still feel really discouraged. It took me 5.5 months and even trying to maximize protein and train hard, still almost half of what I lost was lean tissue, almost half the lean tissue I gained on the bulk I did before the cut 😕 And when I bulk, not gaining a ton of fat is always super hard. I basically spent a year on the bulk and the cut and while I am definitely much stronger now (I've continued to progress in the gym), I barely look any different. I try to do all the right things, but it's frustrating how much harder it is than it looks online!

@@timeunderintention idk everyone’s different, but it’s like a lot of people say, if you are struggling to gain weight, add more calories, so I would assume if you are struggling to retain muscle while cutting bumping up protein and maybe not doing a crazy amount of cardio, I think a lot of people do crazy amounts of cardio and maybe that’s where they go wrong, I know a guy who was competing tho and he was pushing 210g of protein a day in the 140s weight range while cutting so like lots of people say it’s better overshoot I guess, but to be fair this person was 5-7% bf so extremely lean, but other then that I think maybe even take a maintenance break or even a little small very slim bulk like 200-300 over maintenance to try get some of that muscle back, I’m not a sports scientist or anything like that to really say much but I remember the concept of “muscle memory” where once you have built a certain muscle mass, even if you lose it you can get it back in like 1/3 of the time it took to build it the first time or something like that so maybe a little maintenance or small bulk to try and add some muscle back then going back on the cut could be the move, I stopped cutting like a month or 2 ago when I realized I was probably losing muscle because I was getting weaker in my notes app where I couldn’t even match my reps from last session so I went on a maintenance+ small surplus to start getting stronger again, but yeah that’s probably what I would think of doing cuz if u lean bulk and don’t get stronger or put on too much fat u could always just cut again or figure it out from there the next step

It’s important to note everyone, regardless of sex, needs 30g of fat per day for hormonal health. On the high end, I cap my fat intake at 60g for satiety and definitely do not exceed 90g per day. For an entire year, I ate at maintenance calories and let my deficit come from exercise. Eventually I got to a point where I had to raise carbs in order to facilitate more fat burn.

Actually your body is at its healthiest when you fast. Eating nothing at all causes your body to produce ten times the hormone that boosts your immune system after about 72 hours. So after 3 days of nothing but water your immune system will be at a level it never gets to otherwise and you could literally not get sick or diseased. So the idea you just get some type of food source daily to be healthy is complete bunk.

Just finished a 15km ruck with about 25lbs on my back, 2.5 hours. Next Sunday it's 30lbs, etc up to 50lbs. Reset to 25lbs and going to up 20km and +5lbs p/week until at 50lbs again. 12 weeks, 3 months (with 2 buffer weeks for days off or injuries). Eating at caloric maintenance I _should_ cut a bunch of fat from my previous bulk, while keeping the majority of my strength and muscle, if not still increasing it. I do an annual DEXA at the end of the year, and last year in the last 3 months was cutting and doing way too much cardio on way too much of a caloric deficit, and likely catabolized the crap out of my muscle mass. If you build more muscle mass, but stay at the same grams of bodyfat, that's now a smaller number of bodyfat percentage. You lost no bodyfat, but more lean mass means it goes down. Also, hypertrophy makes a big difference to looking strong/lean, even though you have no less fat or are not any stronger.

I have been fitnessing for maybe like 5-7 years on and off. This is my first comment on any of your videos but I also really enjoyed the vo2 max video. Thanks for your content.

I did some intermittent fasting 2 years ago. Usually 72-48-24-72... with one meal in between (usually a whole chicken :)). Lost a lot of weight, but over the next 2 years, I gained most of it back. Admittedly, my body looks nothing like before the fasting - I managed to reshape myself substantially. But now I have a problem with fasting - as soon as I start, my brain knows EXACTLY, what's ahead and fights back. It is painful.

What pisses me off most is how my body stores fat in the love handle region so stubbornly! Jeremy doesn't even have love handles at 15%! I still have love handles at 12%! So I keep shredding. Guess I have to go down to single digits just to see if I even can get rid of them ever.

So, you need a new relationship towards food. It's likely you use food mostly for pleasure but you need to view it as nutrition and body goals. To achieve this you likely need a new or improved source of pleasure elsewhere in your life, to compensate... start working towards your dreams, hobbies, get new physical activities, read books, anything to take your mind off food until you get used to no longer chasing food primarily for pleasure

Carb addiction is real. I've been on a Carnivore diet for 3 years, but until 2 months ago was still putting 10% and heavy cream in my coffee (haven't given up the bean water yet 😅) I was pinned at 180 lbs eating as much as I wanted, with I'd say 13-15% BF. I'm now dairy free, and shredded down to 171 lbs, making no changes in activity or food portioning. It's been said Insulin is the master fat storage hormone, and I can't help but agree.

I mean why would anyone expect the leaner, more efficient body to burn more energy? That’s the entire health benefit of losing useless body fat. You need less energy to function. It saves money and time honestly. The issue is we’re addicted to being gluttons.

Oi guys… Easy tactics to beat hunger -> Protein shakes (especially casein that is micellar/curdles for hours in ur stomach) And at night, after dinner either have 1 shake or BRUSh YOUR TEETH I kid you not, brushing just makes food and drinks in general of putting. Whether you just put a tad bit of toothpaste and swish it around for a few minutes, actually brush or mouthwash, I basically refuse to eat after that. Also drink a ton of water Ez dubs boys. Get shredded let’s go

Oh and for that weekend issue (I love my beers so yeah…) Another key is to either eat filling lean food (eg 1 chicken breast) before going out so you only order and appetiser (entree for based non Americans 🗿) or have small bites of ur mates food. OR Get a hobby that consumes lots of time and keeps you away from the kitchen/fridge/pantry Even if this is playing video games for 6-10hours straight and only drinking water and diet bevs, shopping (so long as you evade the food court) or something else (doesn’t have to be active), then you’re winning.

I got myself down from 34% to 17% fat BMI since last october, Hopefully Ill reach 12 by christmas, started out pretty fast and extrreme, had to take a break, and I actually gained 6 pounds during the break, I began slowly again, and back down to 17% but I haven't suffered, my workout strategy has changed but my diet is the same but slightly modified. I disagree that metabolism is compromised during dieting, its actually improved with good sleep and selective, PLANNED meals. I'm also stronger, and can Sprint without getting hurt, and My cardio is a whole other league now, and I want to keep improving on this end, I dont want to just look good, I want To BE good. sports related reasons, it helps to stay motivated and Healthy.

Do you think you could make a video on targeting fat loss in the thighs and butt? I’ve always been someone who has big thighs, and even after doing cardio, squats, and the like, I’ve struggled to burn the fat away while simultaneously growing muscle. From 180-230 pounds, my thoughts and butt have been the same size. Thanks a bunch, and great content as always?

Was doing the calorie deficit and keto diet at the same, 1200 calories but mostly less than that, in 3 weeks, I lost weight 5-6kg. The downside is that you need to fight the hunger. Another thing w keto diet is that, altho a lot of ppl glorified that keto diet is the safest, being in ketosis has a cons, for me it's dizziness. It went on for prob a week or so even after I stopped my diet all together. I couldn't focus on work and its like I'm losing consciousness for a split second, I still could stand, but couldn't function. Altho it should be a month for ketosis to happen, for me, I already ate less carb since I don't really like eating them. Right now I had huge appetite that wouldn't go away even w a lot of protein intake, hoping it would stop once I regularly consume enough protein to curb it. I remembered salad also helps me keep full, I stopped eating them cuz I got tired of munching on salad, especially baby romaine. Hoping rn baby spinach would do the trick to keep me eating green

I made a little Adjustment to my lunch today like you were showing how you adjusted your meals to make them lower in calories By getting the Apple pecan pecan chicken salad from Wendy's which is 1 of my favorites and just not using the pecans because the salad has Blue cheese on it so it has plenty of fat already. That saved 110 calories and the salad tasted just as good. I've recently discovered magic spoon cereal And often times I will only use 1⁄2 a cup of milk instead of a full cup because it tastes just as good and it cuts 60 calories.
