Where are the goals, dude? Where are you at now? Eight weeks already So I'm on week seven of my program So I got nine weeks left. Dude. So next week It's half three point. Yeah, and you're already on. Then shit getting heavy. This is literally the last This week and next week is the last moderately heavy where it's stuff that like I don't have to have all the property Running shoes whatever next week and also for example next week my Squats people it's more for you. Yeah Probably opener serious Have you done us a p.l. Ever I've done one me. All right. So now yeah, we got heels down. Maybe a more Crazy Yeah, yeah, it's like no red lights and easy. Yeah, they don't give a fuck stiff bar So I'm very big on common specificity. Yeah only stiff bar Follow my stories all of my squats. I've been bearing them when you benched hella big like three eight five three ninety five We're your heels up. I don't know. I think they were Yeah, me too. I think we both benched with our heels Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I think I think head can come up now Yeah, heels down little tweaks and today we got benched a and I'm gonna try to do some triceps and good jack However, you're done bells. Oh pretty hit Or hundreds Yeah, actually, I don't know when it changed I'll do like a big general warm-up like a salt bike or whatever and then I feel great I can kind of hop in a shit and I can start to jam other reasons. So I don't like to share with y'all I've been eating 1500 calories when I'm really shredding right now. I'm more like 2k, but And we're like, why don't you tell me your calories and macros and Well one cuz y'all ain't me but two the genetic difference between the calories We all need is a lot less than you think it's more dependent on what you do in a day And I don't do shit I was just talking about my average steps in a day if I don't try is like 2k if I try it's 5k And you guys right here the internet gurus tell you to get 10k And there's no magic number 10k is just a decent amount of steps Someone just made that up and it became a rule. There's no magic there, right? So if you're doing more steps now than used to if you're used to 1k a day like me doing 3 or 5k would be a great Cool, so I work on a laptop and I work online. I Know I'm a fitness professional, but a lot of my stuff's writing and designing and managing my team and a little bit of lifting But it's cold in here in Vegas, so I'm gonna a little warm We're gonna go hike the mountains. I'm gonna show you all the beauty of Vegas You think the strip you think the casinos and I did too. We're going on a little team hike And now I'm trying to get 5k more steps today's an off-day of training We lifted yesterday And we're heading to Vega or LA tomorrow. I haven't had enough caffeine to think a little bit So we're gonna go Jam come along with us. He's ready for more. I'm not There's a three and a half miles uphill. My hammies aren't made for that. I'm a power athlete. I'm not an endurance athlete I've never done it, but I know one of those tests I don't know if it's 23 and me but one of them hose tells you like what genetics you're made for, you know Like oh, you're made to be a power athlete or you're made to be a golfer Engineer or some shit. I need to do that because I'm for sure made to be a power Although I'm not that strong either But we walked up that mountain Mile and a half down about a mile and a half. I got a little bit of sniffing. This is about 40 degrees out We're gonna go grab food. I'll try to show you what I eat. I'm a BJ's Your cheesecake Eating healthy on the road. I'm definitely sticking to the diet. I don't know where my scale is at I don't feel very tight. I need to drink a little more water today. And then we're heading that way Little leg day tomorrow. Maybe a special guest. Not sure if we'll film it And these are just staring me in the face mid diet What am I supposed to do with that? You know Sabotage. All right, so you're cutting calories. How organized are you with it? Do you go like per meal? I got to get a certain amount of protein or I got to get a certain amount of calories this meal because calories Are you a little bit more flexible in that way? Because in my opinion, that's what's real flexible dieting is, right? So I have a pretty set method The way that I like to do it is I look at how much weight I need to lose in that ballpark how much of a deficit I need to be in So right now because I am I do have strength goals. It's not too drastic of a cut because I don't lose all my gains Yeah, it's like 10 weeks a shower. Yeah, so it's roughly around 1700 calories a day So my first week I track religiously every single thing I put on my mouth I track Then I get a good feel of it because now I gotta live life I have the experience to kind of like intuitively adjust you got to deal with this This and you got a kid. Yeah Ah So, yeah, I do that and then I for a week then I kind of get a Adjust of it. Okay, I got to have this much ground beef and a or just much turkey or whatever and then Um, the next week I do it intuitively and then as life comes. So if it's like a friend's birthday Yeah, then I'll eat maybe a small slice of cake, but the next day zero carbs the whole day That's kind of how I rock. Yeah, what about and so today you're pretty locked in because we just have like a work and travel day Do you just try to separate your meals evenly or you just go by feel, you know, like so you have 1700 and we haven't eaten yet. It's what noon So we go like 800 calories now and 800 calories later, or you'll just do whatever I'll do So I also have to manage the hunger. Yeah, so I'll eat whatever now and before I get in the car I because we're driving to LA get some jerky some jerky Put some that in my mouth and then I'll have a little bit of yeah That would be the only thing going in your mouth, especially with my car I feel like my life is a tornado But it's like man-made And I'm surfing Like in a tornado from like Wizard of the Oz or something So we filmed jk.
