*THREAD*

1. Only Fasting Occasionally
Huge mistake.
10% body fat doesn't come from fasting when you feel like it. It comes from consistency/dedication to the process.
You've got to make it a lifestyle.
Ask yourself:
"Why do I feel the urge to NOT fast on some days??"

2. Bread
Bread simply makes it harder to lose fat, fuels carb addictions, damages your stomach lining, and spikes your insulin.
Bad news all round.
3. Sweeteners
Also spike your insulin, often quite badly. High insulin = FUTURE disease.
Also terrible for sweet cravings.

4. Insufficient Anti-Oxidants
Anti-Oxidants are going to save you from future problems from cancers, heart disease etc.
They're critical & most people just don't get enough.
5. Overlooking Green Tea
It's not as powerful as black coffee for fat loss. https://twitter.com/TheForeverAlpha/status/1332003003788914688

But for health, de-toxing, and stable blood sugar levels?
Green tea WINS.
It also doesn't come with the acidity that coffee can do.
6. Insufficient EFA's
Essential fats = TESTOSTERONE on a diet.
Most men are losing fat, but they're also screwing up their hormones.

7. Diet Soda
LOADS of you are messing up on this one.
It's potentially useful for some people when it comes to fat loss, but it's a BAD idea when it comes to health.
You're absolutely increasing your risk of cancer if you're drinking diet soda every day.

8. Believing That 10% Body Fat Is 'Unhealthy'
- Most NFL players would disagree
- Most NBA stars would disagree
- Most footballers would disagree
- Most fitness models would disagree
Have fun being 30% body fat & swimming in estrogen!

Now, here's where there may be some confusion:
KILLING yourself in order to GET TO 10% bf, is absolutely not healthy, and it's not something I teach.
I teach hormonally healthy, psychologically healthy dieting.
BEING 10% body fat is FAR healthier than BEING 25%.

9. Ignoring Electrolytes
Potentially lethal in men who take dieting to the extremes (yes I've seen this).
You NEED a healthy electrolyte balance so that your heart functions properly.
F***ed up electrolytes = f***ed up heart.
Your risk goes up if your diet SUCKS.

10. Believing Fructose Is Evil
Fructose is not the same as a packet of sweets, just like processed ham and sausages are not the same as grass fed bison.
Fructose = Post workout recovery when used properly.
11. Insufficient B12
Big problem for vegans, and can lead to...

Things like turmeric PROTECT you against illness.

Supplements are NOT for bodybuilding.
Supplements ARE for health.
