Don’t let 2010 become yet another year of unfulfilled resolutions. Tyler Kalmakoff sets the table for you with a New Year’s nutrition plan.  We here at The Soko want you to succeed in your fat loss efforts. So relax for two or three more weeks while you set up and implement a new diet and nutrition plan into your lifestyle. First, you need to realize that this is not short term. To get the body you want and keep it, you’ll need to make this a part of your lifestyle. No turning back. Second, if you take the two or three weeks to change your nutritional intake before going to the gym and stay consistent with your meal plan, you’ll be amazed at how quickly your body adapts to the changes. Be diligent about what you eat and what you don’t eat, pay extra attention to portion control and splitting your meals up throughout the day to keep the belly fire going. Think of your body as a coal fired engine. Immediately you will start feeling better and soon enough you will start looking better too. Don’t deviate from your nutritional plan once you start working out. If you commit the entire year, I promise by 2011, you’ll look and feel better than you could have imagined. Adopt A New Attitude Don’t deprive yourself with negative goals. Never doubt yourself. Feel good about every single achievement, no matter how small it is. But stop short of rewarding yourself with food. Never go to the gym or eat healthy for others. Exercising and improving your nutrition is all about getting a healthier, fitter body and heightening your confidence level. 2010 is all about YOU feeling good about YOU! You must be realistic in order to gain long-term fat loss success. Don’t weigh yourself every day. Try once a week at the most. You’ll get lost and discouraged in all the numbers if you do it too often. Don’t let these numbers interfere with your goals. A.M. Foods To attain your best physique ever, you must eat. This is the hardest message to get across to people. The majority of North Americans have coffee for breakfast, an unhealthy snack for lunch and then a gigantic dinner only hours before bed. This is why most of us are overweight. It’s vital that you consume carbohydrates when they are the most needed, especially in the morning. They serve as immediate fuel for your body and help avoid cannibalism from starting as soon as you roll out of bed. Let your body eat the carbs, not your muscle. And never—I repeat never—skip breakfast. The rule with carbs: if they’re natural of come out of the ground, they’re good for you. You can also eat the following foods at other times during the day for pre- and post-workout snacks: • oats (as long as they aren’t instant) • rice (long grain, brown) • sweet potatoes • grapefruit • apples • black beans • green beans • asparagus • Brussels sprouts • spinach • broccoli • whole eggs |
