I see SO SO SOOOO many people underestimate the power of breakfast (By breakfast I mean a meal taken within one hour after waking up).
On one hand, it is quite understandable because you need to rush to the office, school, or wherever you need to be early in the morning. Or even worse, because you can't prepare the breakfast yourself, you buy your breakfast in fast food stop you find on you way (which is usually INCREDIBLY UNHEALTHY). You might also have mindset, "Breakfast is so small, so I can skip it. I wont feel hungry until lunch time even if I miss it". YOU ARE DEAD WRONG
This kind of excuses has NO PLACE on the ROAD TO SIX PACK. Breakfast is, in my opinion, the MOST IMPORTANT MEAL OF THE DAY. As far as I know the road to six pack, you can't get six pack without taking breakfast EVERYDAY.
You might ask, "Why? Doesn't taking breakfast increase my calorie intake?". Yes it does. BUT, once you take breakfast, your body metabolism will be stimulated. Your body metabolism will be TURNED ON. You can think of breakfast as an ON/OFF Switch of your body metabolism. If you don't take breakfast, your body metabolism will not be as high as you would like to lose fat. By taking breakfast, your metabolism will be at high level the rest of the day (This fact easily outweighs the calorie you take during breakfast)
On top of that, higher metabolism means more muscle building and repairing going on in your body and as I said in the previous note, muscle is a calorie-burning machine. So by skipping breakfast for the reason to reduce calorie intake is definitely COUNTER-PRODUCTIVE. In short, there is NO BENEFIT AT ALL to skip breakfast
SO HAVE YOU TAKEN YOUR BREAKFAST THIS MORNING? If you haven't, start a habit to take it THE VERY NEXT DAY
Alright!! This is the moment you have been waiting for, MY BREAKFAST, taken directly from my PERSONAL DIET PLAN (3270 calories daily)
1 Banana (25.37gr Carbs, 1.12gr Prot, 0.52gr fat, 100cal)
2 Apples (36.6gr Carbs, 0.46gr Prot, 0.86gr fat, 140cal)
2 Whole Eggs (1.23gr Carbs, 12.19gr Prot, 13.5gr fat, 180cal)
1 tbsp 100% NATURAL peanut butter (2gr Carbs, 5gr Prot, 8gr fat, 100 cal)
2 slices of cheddar cheese ( 3gr Carbs, 8.1gr Prot, 5gr fat, 90cal)
Total = 68.2gr carbohydrate, 26.87gr protein, 27.88gr fat, 610cal)
Sounds plenty of food for breakfast, doesn’t it? Believe it or not, this is equal to typical egg and tuna mayo sandwich (3 slices of white bread, one layer of tuna mayo, one layer of scrambled egg and butter). This explains why the reason “you can't prepare your breakfast, so you buy it on your way” SHOULD BE OUT OF THE WINDOW.
So, till the next newsletter, don’t forget to have your breakfast, and stay on the road to six pack

ReplyDelete"bro, so inspiring, such a cool info
could you share your daily meal?
From breakfast, dinner, to snack.
Have been working to lose fat, now it's around 16%. Have been going to gym for quite some time but the fat is still there, difficult to control a healthy diet :p
Of course.
ReplyDeleteThe above is my breakfast so, I won't post it again here.
Here is my current dinner and snack:
Dinner: Half organic chicken + 2 Apple
Snack 1: 2 boiled eggs + 2 apple
Snack 2: Tempeh + yogurt & peanut butter
The rule is always get the whole food, the most natural food out there, and no processed food.
As long as these 3 rules are followed, you should be in pretty good shape
I don't recommend you to follow my diet completely coz my preference might be different than yours. I encourage you to come up with your own healthy diet plan by following the 3 rules above
Keep me updated man and stay positive
thx a lot
ReplyDeleteyou dont take lunch?
i read that you succesfully lost your BF from 19 to 11, what was your cardio plan?
-the same guy :D-
Well, I do take one meal around lunch time but I eat 5-6 times per day so I don't explicitly call one of them lunch or dinner.
ReplyDeleteMy cardio plan was simple and it still is. Maximum two sessions of 20mins High intensity interval training per week and 10-15mins low intensity cardio after high intensity weight training session.
For me personally, the key that time was not the cardio. Sure cardio helps you to lose fat but the key is to maintain (or better, build) muscle during your diet. The way to do that is to have high intensity/density weight training
Wow... I just start to think about my health when I found your blog. Inspiring, esp. about the breakfast part. (now i know why did I lose weight and energy at the same time). Starting from now, will follow your guide. Keep it up bro.
ReplyDeleteAny reading recommendation to live healthy. I am not really into muscle type, but a little bit of muscle and 'semi' six pack won't hurt. But really want to know how to stay healthy.
