Q: Are you sending a bad message by telling your audience that you, a person with a perfectly normal body for a 37-year-old man, need to lose weight? A: I worried about that, but look, everybody has their own goals, and these are mine. I'm fine with how I look, but I don't feel very good, and I don't want to buy all new clothes. When I'm stronger and leaner than I am now, I have more energy, less back pain, and I sleep way better. And yes, a leaner me will also probably present a more "marketable look" in the video medium, which is something I do need to think about these days. Also I have a hot wife, and that alone is a good reason to try to keep my shit tight. But you do you. Q: Why can't you put more herbs and spices on that bland fish? A: You absolutely can, but I find decoupling nutrition from pleasure helps me maintain focus on my fitness goals during times like these. I believe they call it "functional eating." Q: What was up with that intro? A: It was an homage to the Hodgetwins - fitness KZreadrs who used to start all their videos with something like, "Hey man, you looking to make some gains?" And now that I've explained the joke, it's not funny anymore. But they're still funny, so you should go check out their channel. Q: Why don't you pronounce the "h" in "herbs"? A: It's very rare to hear an American pronounce the "h." People here who do it are usually either making a mistake, or they're being pretentious by trying to sound British. I sound pretentious enough as it is. Q: Why did you pronounce "Vidalia" like that? A: I have been to Vidalia, Georgia, and the surrounding onion-growing region many times. It's an hour from my house. I've interviewed onion farmers there. How I said it in the video is basically how most people there say it (though I lack the Southern drawl). You can say it how you want to say it. Q: Do you realize that freshwater fish aren't technically seafood? A: Yes. So do the marine biologists at the Monterey Bay Aquarium, and yet they still talk about freshwater fish on their website seafoodwatch.org because in English we don't have a better single word to describe all the aquatic animals we eat. Q: Do you realize that carbs are actually great/awful, or that strength training is great/awful, or that some other nutrition or exercise thing is actually the worst/best? A: I am hardly an expert, but I've interviewed lots of scientists and read lots of scientific literature about diet and exercise. If you're saying something like this to me, I think it's probably the case that you are massively oversimplifying the available science. Also, good nutrition is bespoke nutrition. Q: Why do you squat the way you do? A: Squat form is a very controversial thing on the internet, in part because there are lots of different ways to squat depending on your goals (i.e. playing football vs growing Tom Platz quads) and also because good squat form is highly dependent on your own personal biomechanics. I've been squatting many years, and I've had trainers look at my form several times. This is the basic form that I have found works with my structure, and it's hardly unusual. However, I will go deeper, lower-bar and certainly much heavier as I progress. I've been almost sedentary for a year. Especially as I get older, I find that I need to be VERY cautious about any exercises involving spinal compression until my core strength comes back on line. The squat you see me doing here is what feels safest to me at this stage in my process. And yes, I deadlift too, but it will be several weeks before my core is strong enough for that. Q: If you're dieting, why is there Coke and other unhealthy things in your fridge? A: I am not the only person who lives in my house. Also, regarding the other ingredients, I am continuing to develop/test/shoot normal recipes for this channel, because not everyone in the world wants to eat cauliflower rice and tilapia for the next two months. Hell, I don't really want to.

Carbs aren't an issue. They're needlessly demonized because of sugar. The only carbs you want to worry about are the fast digesting carbs, like sugar. Because it causes more significant insulin spikes and isn't satiating at all. For 99% of people, getting a healthy diet takes 3 steps. 1. Reduce sugars 2. Add variety 3. Make sure you're eating enough protein. Everything beyond that is marginal gains with little real world benefit and a whole crap load more work. Which is why 95% of diets fail. You are simply not going to put in a lot of extra effort for everyone.

Yeah, Gordon can talk out his ass all he wants, but unless you buy your fish from the fisherman/vendor within 1 mile of the dock where it came in, flash freezing does less to hurt the fish than the time it spends rotting waiting for you to buy it. If you can't find that fish fresh caught this morning within a 20 minute drive or buy it alive (i.e. clams, lobster, etc.), frozen will almost always be better unless you're a high-end restaurant having your fish flown in daily.

I’m trying to follow some of your recipes and bend some of them with better aka less caloric/fattening ingredients but it is much more difficult than I thought as your recipes seem to carry each component for a very specific function in the dish. Have you ever thought about re-tweaking the recipes to be slightly better on the waistline?? I’d support monetarily if you did! Thanks for your videos and your hard work!

Adam, I appreciate the video specifically targeting weight loss. That said I ALREADY lost 35 lbs this year almost entirely thanks to your channel. I have taken your concept of freezing foods into ice cubes to a ridiculous extreme. I personally can't stand eating the same food over and over but by eating rice paired with reheated cubes of pesto, lentil curry, black beans (your recipe) or bolognese (also your recipe) I've been able to very precisely manage portion control and I only have to cook about once a week to replenish whichever cube stash is running short.

Another good ice cube food hack is to puree left over vegetables and freeze the puree. Whenever I'm making something with strong flavors like tomato sauce I take out the puree cubes and dissolve a few into the dish. The food usually tastes no different but I'm stretching out the dish and getting more nutrition. Plus it's nice not to waste food.

I love this. You’ve motivated me and that’s no easy feat.

My favorite takeaway from this is bake fish from frozen with olive oil, salt, and pepper with some lemon afterwards. I'll have to try it since it looks so simple.

Adam! You have to cut the cauliflower into similar sized "trees", then pulse it 2 or 3 times on the food processor depending on how big you like the "grains". The main stem I keep in the fridge to dice and put in other foods like stir-fried cabbage.

That profile pic matches your comment somewhat

For me, the hardest part when I try to diet is the fact that I live with 3 other people (my parents and my brother) and they eat different food and we eat at the same time and I start CRAVING what they eat. On top of that my parents buy my brother snacks and I can't help myself when I see him eating them. Also, when I'm a bit hungry, I open the fridge to get some of my food, but when I see all the other, better tasting, better feeling food, the hell with my diet!

If it makes you feel any better, you're not alone. It's hard to eat healthy when the environment around you is full of fat, sugar, and salt because those are delicious and our stupid monkey brains want easy calories. Eating is also very much a social thing. The best thing you can do is try to find healthy stuff that tastes good to you and that you can make the _easy_ option when you're hungry like his big POT OF FOOD. And don't wait to make that food until you're hungry; make it ahead of time. Side-step your willpower.

Cauliflower rice is one of the few things I kept from my stints in keto. I luckily have a food processor with a grater attachment and wide feed tube so ricing it is easy. Try spreading it out on parchment paper and baking in the oven instead. It comes out with a much better texture in my opinion, and doesn't really take any longer. You can then quickly stir fry it with anything else you might want.

@@atuvi6 bruh a cup of cauliflower is 5 carbs, chill. It's pretty good nutritionally regardless of your diet.

I make my tilapia either with a breadcrumb coated and fried, lemon dill and butter, or my personal favorite in a sofrito crust if you will, it has the tendency to caramelize onto the fish and creates this lovely flavorful sauce with a bit of a crust on it.

I really like how you break down rather complex things into something perfectly doable for the average guy without going the "you have to do this exact same thing" route. I'm considering going with lean chicken for the most part, mostly because i like fish way too much. The idea of making the food not a reward but a nutritional necessity is great, and totally agree on that you have to remember to treat yourself once in a while. Repetitiveness however will kill the mood after a while, might do a switch to fish after week two. Really nice idea with the cauliflower "rice". Anyways picked up quite a few hints from the vid that will make getting started quite easy.

I've lost 90 lbs in 7 months. I'm a 55 year old male, with only walking 20 minutes a day for exercise. Cutting carbs is really the key, along with keeping your calorie count between 1200-1500 per day. I aimed for 40 net carbs per day. I drank a protein shake in the morning, chicken tacos or Arby's double roast beef sandwich for lunch (no shells or buns) and then chicken and some sort of green vegetable, or eggs and bacon for supper. Now it's about keeping the calories below 2000 in order to maintain. For me, I found the repetitiveness helpful. You find something you like and stick with it. That way you don't have to wonder "Can I eat this or not?" It may not work for you, but I needed the repetition.

In Japan it's the cultural norm to brush after eating anything, even a small snack. Not that absolutely everybody does it but it's really common for people to keep a toothbrush and a little mirror in their desk at the office for example. I wonder how much of a factor that is in their high life expectancy stats, as well as the high fish and ferment traditional diet etc etc that people usually bring up.

Its the first soup I've ever made, and I like to make something I've never made on the first day of every year, and this made the cut bigtime, exceeded my highest expectations.

Another piece of advice for forming/breaking any habit: Stop depending on your raw will-power. Remove as many potential bad decisions from your day as possible. Eating too many cookies at once? Stop buying them.

The part at 7:31 is so true I’m on the skinnier side so I started weight training to gets some muscle the first week was a pain and I stopped doing it for a bit but I decided to start doing it again and now I’ve been doing it for 2 1/2 months and I’m seeing results and doing it religiously since

"Dungeon Basement Gym" The pure testosterone gym

Adam, Thank you very much for this video, I came back and re watched it when I started dieting for inspiration. The cauliflower rice/ tilapia is great, even cold. I like to add red chili paste as I eat it for a little kick. What I really want to thank you for is the vegetable soup. My entire life I thought I didn't like vegetable soup, turns out I just didn't like the veggies that were being put into it. My current version is: carrots, shallots, dried mushrooms (oyster this time around), frozen peas, roma tomatoes, lots of garlic and a serrano pepper for just a hint of kick. I could, and currently do eat it every day

This is great advice. Thank you!

I decided to combine these two ideas and I made a big pot of fish stew. I like sockeye salmon so I baked about 2 pounds of that with some honey sriracha before putting it in a big pot with white wine, zucchini, squash, shredded carrot, green onion, bamboo, water chestnut, bell pepper, and a couple bags of frozen riced cauliflower. Delicious and gave me quick heat up meals for days.

Hey man, long time viewer here. I really like this video and how informative it was, however, I wish you would make a video like this on how to gain weight for building muscle. Great vid man, and it’s great seeing your channel grow as much as it is.
