G’day Shredders,

Welcome to Day 5 of RTP Group Shred 2.0!

Happy Halloween to all my fellow Shredders! As you can see from today’s pic I became an aging rocker for nephew’s birthday/Halloween party!

A Very Important Topic 

For today’s video topic I discuss a very important component of physique transformation, nutrition. Many experts will tell you that your nutrition comprises up to 80% of your results.

While my philosophy is a little different (I believe there is an interdependent relationship between nutrition, training and mindset) there is no doubt that if you don’t eat clean consistently you won’t get “fast” results.

For many people, one of the big challenges of maintaining their “clean” nutrition plan is when they attend parties, events (Halloween, Christmas, etc) during the holiday season and feel the “social pressure” of “fitting in” and succumbing to temptation.

How To Avoid Holiday Season Over-Indulgence

My advice in these situations is two-fold, if possible prepare ahead of time and re-arrange your schedule to have your “reward meal” on the day of the party and always keep your PRW (Powerful Reason Why) at the forefront of your mind while you are at the party to keep you “in line”.

If you have any suggestions regarding how to avoid overindulgence throughout the holiday period please feel free to leave your comments below. In the meantime watch the video from Group Shred 1.0 for Day 5 for all my best “eating clean” info!

Congratulations Danny!
