Happy Saturday for most folks, and happy Sunday for those of us in the GMT+5 or higher timezones!
There was a comment made on one of my videos about how they have 'slipped up' many times during their carnivore journey, but just keep getting back on track and have made great progress over several years.
It was a timely reminder that there really only is today, this very moment. Whatever happened yesterday is dead and gone, the future is not set, which just leaves now. You can choose what you do now and if you have slipped up with how you've been eating, exercising, or anything, just go again.
Welcome to my locals community. Watch the video to learn more about why I'm so excited you're here!
It's been a long time since I've cooked lamb roast, and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. My second oldest son and myself decimated quite a bit of it before it had a chance to rest for long!
Thankyou to @koppertone for the suggestion to add garlic cloves. There will be a cook video coming to the Stay Strong, Live Long YouTube channel soon.
It's the end of the day here in Sydney, but a new day beginning for those in the USA. Have a great day everyone!
Gosh it sure has been a crazy few weeks for me. I got a new full-time job about a month ago working for a supplement company. It's great having the regular income but now my free time is at a premium.
I know many of you will be celebrating thanksgiving soon, so I hope you all get to spend some quality time with family. Happy Wednesday!
Training with weights or doing any sort of resistance training at sufficient intensity causes what's known as muscle hypertrophy. Your muscle fibers literally expand and multiply, making the muscles larger and stronger.
Having a strong, capable and well-shaped body is one thing, but it's also a huge advantage when it comes to maintaining your ideal bodyweight. All of that muscle tissue and additional mitochondria is a huge consumer of energy even when you are not exercising. Additionally, many studies have shown how more muscle mass improves insulin sensitivity and reduces diabetic risk.
I can't emphasise how important it is to add regular resistance training to your schedule. If you don't have equipment or a gym membership, start with air squats and wall pushups. This video on my YouTube channel contains low intensity versions of these exercises if you need a demo:
Today was the first day that I've ever had a friend or family member reach out to say 'Hey I'm starting the carnivore diet, got some tips for me?'
This particular friend is as lean as a race horse already so his reasons for starting are to eliminate brain fog, constant bowel issues, energy and mood swings and just a general feeling of malaise.
It reminded me of all of the health benefits I've experienced and how I never want to go back to how I used to eat before, because I don't want to give up how great I feel now compared to how I used to.
Are you still the lone carnivore ranger in your friends and family circle or have you had others join you for the ride?
