what's up, guys? jeff cavaliere, athleanx.com. today i'm going to break out the smart boardto discuss a dumb mistake that a lot of people make when it comes to dieting for a 6 pack. you see, if you rely on calorie restrictionas your main and sole method of getting to a lower body fat level, you're going to runinto a brick wall a lot harder and faster than the one behind me. here's the problem: we know that in orderto create a body fat loss you have to create a caloric deficit. we talked about that alot of times before. there's a thermodynamic law that states that we need to do that. that's a given. it doesn't mean it has tocome from calorie restriction because the biggest mistake people make – let's saythey're arbitrarily going to pick a 2000 calorie daily maintenance level; that's what yoursis. you want to create a 500 calorie deficit becauseyou know you need to do that in order to lose some weight and lose body fat. a lot of peoplewill do thi...

what's up, guys? jeff cavaliere, athlean-x.com. back in the old xbox, getting up close andpersonal here, a couple new elements in this video – or maybe old elements – but it'sto underscore a certain point here. that is: life is a little bit bumpy at themoment for me. for those that don’t know, i've actually been expecting a baby now forquite a few months, we're getting toward the end of the line here, but one baby turnedinto two. so now we have two babies coming, but alongthe way – like i said – a bump in that road has thrown my whole life into a littlebit of an uproar. however, i've always said, and i've been a firm believer in the factthat you'd still better find a way to address your own health if you're going to be wortha damn for the people that actually need you. so if that means working out a little bitlater than usual then so be it. if that means working out with less equipment than you'reused to because you can't get to the gym...

today, i'd like to talk aboutturning around an epidemic. one hundred million americans right nowdo have either diabetes or pre-diabetes, and that puts themat risk for amputations, for heart disease, for blindness. and we're exportingthis epidemic overseas. the word "epidemic" comes from old greek: 'epi' means 'on', 'demos' means 'people', so an epidemic is something we study withsterile statistics, and maps, and graphs, but the truth is, it's something that impinges directly on people,on living, breathing human-beings. but my story actually startsin the basement of a minneapolis hospital. the year before i went to medical school,i was the morgue attendant, or as i'd like to say,"the autopsy assistant". what that meant was, whenever anybody died,i would bring the body out of the cooler, and put the body onan examination table, and the pathologistwould come into the room. and one day, a person diedin a hospital of a mass...

(This is part 6 of a multi-part series on How to Tweak a Low Carb Diet . It discusses my weight loss journey so far. If you didn’t read part 1, you can do so by clicking on the how-to link. Part 1 also includes links to the rest of this series.) At one time or another, most dieters get caught up in the desire of wanting to lose weight fast. That actually worked to my advantage because Lyle McDonald originally created his Rapid Fat Loss Plan (a whole foods PSMF Diet) to deal with crash diets safely. While McDonald’s focus is on bodybuilding, muscle retention, and metabolism, maintaining muscle mass during dieting is to everyone’s benefit – quick weight loss or not. The Kimkins fiasco brought the protein content of a low carb diet into the limelight. Dr. Eades’ did have recommendations for low carbers to shoot for. He talked about large, medium, and small servings of protein (five, four or three ounces) at each meal depending upon how much you currently weigh, getting 35 grams of carbohy...
