Eating Cleaner No Longer Works | Now What?

- Reaching 15% body fat or lower often starts with changing habits like eating clean. When you make swaps for foods that are cleaner you are simply create a caloric deficit. You could also just reduce total calories but keep those same foods.
Eating clean has its' benefits for sure. Those foods are usually higher in volume, help with satiety and loaded with vitamins and minerals.
What do you do when eating clean no longer works?
How much sugar can you eat and still lose fat? As much as you want if it fits your daily goals, and i have been using high sugar foods for years.
We need to remove the idea that one diet is best for all, instead we need to use an approach where calories are the focus, macros are in the proper ranges and food enjoyment is a consideration!
Summer Sculpt is open, nutrition and training plans available and the group is live! If you would like to join.

Im in! . Have you guys announced winners for the last 90day challenge yet ??
Paul love your stuff. On day 8 of a 30 day fast. Already down from 263 to 250. Only 5-11 i am 52 and was wonder if you knew if taking Lion's Mane breaks a fast thanks. Keytones 2.0 mmo/l this am. blood glucose is 70. Feeling better than i have in since i was in my 30. I found out the key to this is you must take your electrolytes. You will feel like crap if you don't. Found this out on the 4th day energy wasn't there. Took some electrolytes and boom energy was and still been through the roof. This may not be for everyone but right now loving it.
You can most definitely enjoy things like carbs and sugar if you're dialed in with calories and macros. I'm currently around about 7% body fat and visible veins over all of my abs, even lower abs, and vascular with visible striations in multiple muscles. I have a root beer float every single night as a daily reward I enjoy. And I'm talking regular vanilla ice cream and A&W root beer. Not some super health oriented ice cream and root beer. In in excellent shape though. As long as the majority of your food and habits are healthy, having a very small allotted percentage for a treat and still looking great and being healthy is possible. Not to toot my own horn, but my physique looks more shredded than a lot of pro athletes I see.
I think most people underestimate their actual body fat percentage. At 12-15% you are already lean.
Yup that’s the sweet spot for sure
Most people’s 12-15% is usually 18-25%
I'm assuming you're only addressing men with that comment. That percentage of body fat would likely cause a woman to become infertile.
Hahaha you are not lean at 15%
Don’t give up, greatness takes time.
Yeah I would love to see how you eat at home and out when trying to stay lean!
Absolutely awesome message.
One thing that trips me up is just getting used to the little nagging stuff that requires more mobility and flexibility work over a period of time. I fight through the stuff that is minor, but knowing when to rest and recover and what kind of signs to heed from your body is something I’ve had to learn. From lifting, to types of cardio, going barefoot / zero drop shoes, etc - always something that is pushing your body will require some understanding of thresholds and interpreting what your body is telling you.
The ugly side of ignoring this can be a lack of proper energy, or straight up injuries.
I do agree 100+++ % on keeping it simple Sally about food. Enjoy when you go out to eat.
Hey brother, really enjoyed your video. I have a coach, I’ve lost 11 kilos in the past 12 weeks, but I still love watching these kinds of videos which provide a really sensible & long term strategy!
Wow .. real talk ... most well rounded video I have ever seen ! Awesome
Yes, I'm always a fan of day in the life/all day eating videos. I'm always curious and what other fitness trainers / non-athletes have across the day , afternoons, night time and the times 👍😎
Love the videos Paul! I have learned a ton from you. I take my wife to Hall's every year for our anniversary...amazing!
Would love to see your process for prepping meals along with your process for measuring (ex.measuring food cooked versus uncooked proportions)
Thanks, Paul! Good information!
Would love to see some content on finding balance with being strict in diet and goals but also balancing enjoying life and socializing
I would love to see a day of eating and a eating out guide.
Thank you for all the good information!
I quit alcohol for good 5 months ago. Worked great. But yeah I still have a healthy appetite and I sure got to watch the calories (at 51 years old). I am going to have to try the meal planning. Great info thanks 🇺🇸 🇳🇿
The biggest help for me was a food scale. I realized I was eating 2-3 servings constantly
Yes!
i agree 100% with everything you said. The hardest thing is being single and going out for dinners,drinks, etc. and trying to maintain a certain caloric intake. Never mind trying to exercise the next day after having a few too many tito's. The name of the game is discipline.
The suffering brings with it an opportunity to win. With every win, no matter how small can propel you even further. Once there, looking back is a reminder of all you are capable of, which fuels you to keep going. Even if you fall off, knowing this is enough to get you back on again.
@@scottmartinez7466very well said
being single is the best scenario to be in to be locked in to diet, training and not drinking booze. being married and/or in a relationship is way harder
@@jakeminnitiagreed. It’s way harder in relationships depending on your partner. I gained a lot of weight in my relationship but I’m finally back to normal weight again but it was harder.
Yes I would like to see 🙂
great video thanks
Agree 100% that a goal helps a lot. I find I really need a goal besides just losing weight to motivate me.
Thank you Paul, that sounds soooo good, I do omad, Sunday to Thursday, and Friday and Saturday, I do 16/8, but on Fridays I don't count calories, I eat what I been thinking about all week, then get back on track Sunday. Do you think I might be doing too much on Fridays? And thanks in advance for responding.
Yes please do the eating out video
Hey Paul, yes lets see a video of eating out.
Yes full day of eating 🎉💪👍
Love all your videos, show us more! 💪
Thank you! Will do!
I would LOVE to see an eating out video Paul
Yes!! Eating out video while trying to be mindful. Pls 🙃
Yes i could benifit from a day of eating to stay lean without prep!
Hey Paul would like to see one of your full day of eating diets when you are getting lean, going from like 8% to 6%. I’ve only ever managed around 7-8% according to DEXA and that’s with extensive efforts. Would like to see how you got leaner.
Yes plz make a what u eat in a day video
Signed up! So what should I do until it starts?
I would love to see how to eat out while tracking. I have a hard time guessing portions when I eat out.
Yes full day of eating and staying lean would be awesome
I'd like to see a full day of eating and eating out! Love the vids btw
I've signed up for the challenge but I think that I need a coach too...
Yes to the full day of eating
I have an office job too. Simplicity helps, don’t wanna say Do this because everyone is different but if you’re serious set you calories and protein and try eating the same breakfast (I just do a shake) and lunch at work. Tweak it depending on your goals.
Still have to worry about dinner but I pretty much know what that’ll consist of.
Shoe more eating!! I need to expand my ideas
Preach💪
I would like to see a day of eating or eating out video.
Hi Paul, how can I, short of a dexa scan, estimate body fat percentage? I think it's way too common for people to under estimate how much body fat they currently have.
Yes full day of eating
Is it ok if instead of being in a calorie defecit of the same amount every day I eat lower on weekdays to account for higher calories on weekends and hit the same weekly avg of calorie defecit ? Or if I fast for a day to keep the weekly avg calorie defecit the same as planned, or is it important the calorie defecit is daily
Most often when eating out there's to much food so I just split it in half and take the rest home. Trying to eat mindful of portions
What to do when your scale weight won't go down much. I used to always be in great shape. School athlete, college athlete and over 10 years of military service and I'm finding now that I'm 42 my weight has gone up.
I'm 6'2 and about 254lbs. I've been lifting for about 23 years now.
I've been ordering fitness meals and training 6 days a week with one day off where I have a cheat meal and some snacks to shock my system which always worked for me.
I gained the weight from a injury and having a family member suddenly get killed. I'm over the injury and not emotionally eating. It's like my metabolism is turned off or something.
I've only lost like 5 pounds in a month.
I can normally lose that a week as work my ass off in the gym with good eating.
Any advice would be greatly appreciate. Never been in this situation. Starting to think it could be my T levels but who knows.
So sorry for your loss Dan. Cant really offer advice. You thought of doing the challenge? Support can help. Different minds looking at approach to what's worked, not worked for you. Helped me at 45. Finally dropped a weight.
My weight loss and weight gain journey has been up and down for decades. I finally started focusing on myself since September 2023. I started at 110kgs iam 1.87meters tall and was 22% body fat. Iam now down to 93kgs and 12% body fat, but I really thought I would be alot leaner at 12%. I still have some lower back fat and some belly fat. I can see my top 4 abs but i was expecting to look alot better at 12%. Can u advise.
what do you thınk about durianrider diet. unlimited carb is true?
💯
Thank you!
bro hes not 15 percent body fat at 194 lb. I am 164 lbs, with muscles and still have 20% body fat.
you may certainly be correct.
Yeah but how tall are you
Body composition matters…height and muscle play a role not just weight
He probably is carrying more muscle.
I’m 5’8 at 183 pounds, currently 23% body fat.
When I get to 165 I’m gonna be 15% body fat or less.
Everyone’s different, but if he hasn’t had a scan and is just eye balling it then yeah he probably is quite off.
I would like a behind the scenes judging video to see what you were looking for when you picked the winners. I wonder how many of the top 10 hired a coach too.
That's a good idea, i would be open to sharing this process. It's not easy!
I'd like to see a video like that 🙋♂️
Great message. It will have the keto/carnivore zealots foaming at the mouth 😂
they do that just from missing carbs! lol.
My issue is the opposite… I wanna cut down body fat but I wanna gain muscle yet I struggle to eat enough cause I get so full easily … how do you even manage this cause I want to get more muscle mass in my lower body especially and a little more with my arms.. I know how to workout to make it happen but the nutritional stuff for me is so hard cause I have to force feed myself so much 😂 ugh
