How to eat to be a MONSTER in the gym (Nutritional tips for sports performance) Ft Pro Strongman

[@LeylandFoizey]

Stack habits..what a great way to put it. I overwhelm myself sometimes with all the things I "should be doing"

[@SzatStrength]

Habit stacking is awesome

[@EstefaniaHZ]

Thank you! 🔥 My workout consistency is not of issue, it’s always been diet. More so, adjusting food goals as I adjust my programming is where I get stumped . Finding that balance between lean and strength is tricky!

[@bigdarshan]

two very good coaches giving great advice! I really enjoyed this one, thank you!

[@PandasFknRule]

The incremental change thing is something I noticed about a year ago. I was the guy making sweeping changes then giving up two weeks later. Started by cutting as much sugar as possible for two weeks, then started eating less processed foods for two weeks, walking at least 20 miles a week for two weeks...now all are just a part of my routine. Sustainable for me.

One good way to get that 30-minute walk in as well as reducing inflammation is to take a 10-minute walk after each meal

Great video, as someone who falls off the wagon occasionally, this really helps

Thanks broski

Whats your take on using ketogenic style diets running primarily on fats and protein for diet and only eating lots of carbs post training. John kiefer wrote a book about this way of backloading carbs only when the body can suck up sugars and carbs even without the presence of insulin? Its great for lean bulking or recomping to stay at your current fatness while packing on muscle and strength. Ive been gaining 1-2 lbs a week and adding weight to the bar with full body compound lifts 2-3 days a week. If you train everyday you can eat carbs every evening for dinner. Ive lost a little inches while adding bulk and power. This works and its more about hormonal signalling and circadian rhythms. Burn fats all day no carbs, then smashing lots of hi gi carbs until bed after late day lifting. He also wrote the Carb Nite Solution for quick fat loss without any muscle loss via only having one night a week to spike insulin with lots of sugary goodness and eat keto style high fat low carbs for 61/2 days. That book is not for gaining muscle but only for losing fat. Maybe he's too markety fad guy for most but Ive had great success utilizing these two approaches for bulking and losing weight. Thanks for the video.

What are your thoughts on eating raw liver for barbarian gains??

[@What-he5pr]

Cook a nice liver paprikash instead.

[@314tified]

What is that clear stuff he drinks at the beginning? How many protein does it have? Really loving the collaborations with Anthony. Hope there are more to come. You guys are two of the best follows I have made the past couple of years. Keep up the good work.

Are the time of normal human sized water bottles over? Thats like a two gallon fucking jug.

[@chicagobearsfan2334]

Hey Joey, amazing video! I learned alot from this. Your guest said that when he is cutting for a contest he increases his protein intake to 1.5g per kg. Does he calculate that with his weight goal or his current weight? I have a jiu jitsu comp in January and I am cutting from ~200 to 186, should i calculate my protein goal with my current weight or goal weight?

Unrealistic to get stronger while cutting unless you’re on PEDs

[@1gregmoreira]

No it’s not. People do it all the time. I am one of them. Never touched. PED in my life I’m not a competitive power lifter or body builder. Just an average joe that wanted to get in shape as I age(late 30’s). I started hitting it hard during covid because there was nothing else to do Lost 50 lbs from 260 to 210. And put almost 100 pounds on my bench at the same time over the course of a little more than a year When I started I was barely getting a rep or two at 185 lbs. My current one rep max is 275. My goal by next summer is to be down to 195 and to be benching 3 plates. 315lbs. I have no idea what my squat or deadlift max is because I only have 350lbs here at home and I can now rep those. I’m assuming close to 400 or a little more for a one rep max squat and a fair amount over 400 for a deadlift. I’m not incredibly concerned with maxes. I do a one rep max day once every six weeks Otherwise I eat 2200 calories a day strictly weighed and measured and portioned. Unless my dog is slipping testosterone in my oatmeal I’m pretty certain that I’m doing exactly what you say cannot be done

[@sagebauer1077]

gaining muscle mass is potentially unrealistic (at least, very hard). But getting stronger doesn't always require an increase in muscle mass

[@noomel]

@@1gregmoreira The exception would be for people who are new to strength training since those people achieve new PRs every week and get stronger no matter what they do as long as they keep training. I was talking more about experienced trainers who have a harder time hitting new PRs…maybe it’s possible but still unrealistic for most people at that level of training.

[@noomel]

@@sagebauer1077 agreed on this. Take oly weightlifters - athletes at a certain weight category keep getting stronger at the same weight and so world records keep getting broken. But if you’re talking about a given athlete being just as strong at 81 kg than he/she is at 73 kg…that’s unrealistic. Otherwise you’d see WRs that are similar across the board for all weight categories. Im talking about relative strength. It’s unrealistic for the average person to be stronger at a lighter weight than a heavier weight without some sort of help.

[@1gregmoreira]

@@noomel if you’re an elite level athlete who has prioritized and maximized strength while carrying a lower level of body fat, and then you go into a hard cut for a body building show.... of course it will be hard to maintain strength and size. I think you have this exactly backwards though. For the average person, which is almost everyone..... it’s going to be easier to lose fat and make strength gains and muscle size gains at the same time. I’m sure that there are pros out there who watch these videos, but it’s mostly more average folks on their fitness journey who are probably getting the most benefit and watching the content All that stored energy that the average person is carrying around is what helps allow this to happen The amount of folks carrying some extra weight and not regularly training will definitely far outnumber the guys who are near their genetic fitness limits. I’m not even completely untrained. I was an athlete in high school. Fell off the wagon in my 20’s but got back in shape before I turned 30. Fell off the wagon again due to life and a desk job in my 30s and got to my heaviest weight ever before getting back at it at age 37 Just turned 39 and I’m actually stronger than I have ever been at any other period when I was previously more in shape.
