READING NUTRITION LABELS⬇️ Don’t get me sta

READING NUTRITION LABELS⬇️

Don’t get me started on this guy’s page

Scrolling through it got me really down the other day

Started feeling overwhelmed that this sorta shit has 500K+ followers

Soooo I’d like to address shit like this

And really hoping to do it without too much shitting on the other person

This is my attempt at that 🤣

Things I’d rather you focus on when looking at nutrition labels:

1️⃣ Calories + Serving Size: How many calories am I eating for how much food?

2️⃣ Protein (calories:protein): Most people don’t eat enough…and eating more takes intention. Most people are getting enough carbs and fats.

3️⃣ Fiber: Same as above. Most of us don’t get enough fiber and eating more takes intention.

Yeah there’s other relevant stuff on there like sodium, saturated fat, trans fat, added sugars…

But I’d start with these 3 for getting lost in the weeds

They’re the most important.

5 PROTEIN MYTHS⤵️

➡️Share this if ya learned something! (helps me a metric f*ck ton)

Hope this helps dispell some common misconceptions!

🚫 The RDA is enough protein (.8g/kg)

🚫 You need to eat 1g/lb protein

🚫 Eating higher protein will damage your kidneys

🚫 Protein can’t be converted to body fat so it’s free calories

🚫 Vegans can’t make gains

Is there something you’ve heard that I didn’t cover here?

LMK in the comments!

In the nicest most constructive way possible…

Start taking some ownership over what you consume in your visual diet

A good place to start is to get rid of anyone saying any of this nonsense

Even if someone has “mostly fine information”…

There are just some lines that need to be drawn so you don’t have to weed through the bs

And these are 9 red flags that would be a hard line for me

1️⃣ Carbs make you fat

2️⃣ Seed oils are “highly inflammatory”

3️⃣ ”Shaping / sculpting / toning” workouts for “long, lean muscle”

4️⃣ Artificial sweeteners are killing you

5️⃣ You need to buy organic

6️⃣ Cardio is killing your gains

7️⃣ If it has a lot of complicated ingredients, don’t eat it

8️⃣ Eating high protein damages your kidneys

9️⃣ You can’t lose weight because your metabolism is damaged and you need a reverse diet

How many reps for muscle growth?⬇️ 📌Save t

How many reps for muscle growth?⬇️

📌Save this post! (helps a metric f*ck ton)

I’m not saying rep range is completely arbitrary…

But when it comes to muscle growth we have a WIDE range.

What matters most for muscle growth is “doing enough hard sets close to failure”

The rep range…well…it matters less

We’ve seen in research that between 5-30 reps if taken equally close to failure provides similar hypertrophy…so you definitely have some wiggle room if you’re someone at home who doesn’t have access to super heavy weight.

That said, I’ll make a case for using lower reps on AVERAGE…maybe most of your stuff in the 5-15 range

1️⃣ It takes less time. If it’s true you can get equal gains with 5-30 reps…well…sets of 5-10 take less time!

2️⃣ Less fatiguing: This goes moreso for heavier compound lifts but higher rep work is just more exhausting on average. Not always, but come back to this after a cycle of 15 reps RDLs.

3️⃣ Better at assessing RIR: You’re likely better at assessing how close you are to failure on sets <10 reps than sets of >20 reps. You’re more likely to stop because of the “burn” sensation at higher reps…and some research suggests that with heavier load/lower reps you don’t actually HAVE to be as close to failure which if true, is a nice bonus.

All in all I think rep range will have an element of personal preference AND may differ from exercise to exercise.

For example, on average I prefer 5-12 reps on most things…

Buttttt I like tricep work in slightly higher rep ranges because it feels better on my elbows

Sometimes it do be like that
