The No BS Guide To Going from 30% To 10% Body Fat (Burn Fat, Get Lean) | Adam Schafer (Mind Pump)
Adam Schafer is one of the host’s and founders of the highly popular brand and podcast Mind Pump.
Today on the show we get into the ultimate blueprint for going from 30% body fat to 10% body fat. While that low of body fat percentage is not recommended for women, this episode still will provide a ton of value no matter what. We also discuss the three things you must track to lose body fat, why eliminating things from your diet when losing weight can be problematic, how to effectively measure progress without using a scale, why vanity and aesthetics is a massive health trap, the biggest fat loss mistakes people make, why some of the most ripped people are often the most broken, things you should switch up in the gym to maximize gains and more.

00:14 🍏 Focus on optimizing health first before diving into weight loss. 02:05 🧠 Track steps, sleep, and nutrition to assess the starting point accurately. 03:57 🏋♂ Start by adding things to the diet before taking away, focusing on hitting protein intake. 05:18 🥦 Add whole, nutrient-dense foods to the diet instead of focusing on calorie restriction. 08:45 🚶 Gradually increase daily steps to improve activity level. 10:52 💪 Increase strength training intensity to burn more calories and build muscle. 14:23 🍽 No need to weigh food, focus on adding whole foods to the diet. 16:09 📷 Use circumference measurements and progress pictures to track changes instead of relying solely on the scale. 19:57 🧠 Focus on more than just reaching 10% body fat; it's essential to understand the long-term benefits beyond aesthetics. 22:56 🏠 Connecting fitness to other aspects of life like relationships and productivity at work can be a powerful motivator. 24:47 💼 A healthier version of yourself improves performance in all areas of life, not just fitness. 27:32 🚀 Focus on long-term passion rather than short-term goals like reaching 10% body fat. 29:21 🌱 True health includes balance and enjoyment, not just physical appearance. 30:17 💔 Pursuing physical perfection can lead to emotional lows and a sense of brokenness. 35:17 ⚖ The mistake many make is pushing too hard, too fast; focus on sustainable changes for long-term success. 39:44 🏋♂ It's better to start with a realistic workout plan and gradually increase intensity rather than overwhelming yourself with too much too soon. 40:41 🍽 Two days of full-body strength training per week combined with good nutrition can significantly reduce body fat percentage, even from 30% to 10%. 41:23 📉 Starting with too much too fast can lead to burnout and plateaus. Gradual adjustments are more sustainable for long-term progress. 41:51 💪 Pushing through plateaus often requires changes in workout routines, including adjusting rest periods and tempos. 43:16 🚹🚺 Men and women tend to hit plateaus differently; women may need encouragement to push harder, while men may need to avoid overtraining. 45:49 ⏱ Adjusting rest periods and exercise tempos can help break through plateaus, regardless of whether you're a beginner or an experienced lifter.

Go look up visceral fat causing chronic illness, this guy has some knowledge on body composition but he’s misinformed and wrong about a couple things including vegetables, they should be kept to a minimum or not eaten at all ideally, also eating 4-6 times a day is ridiculous you should be eating Mac of twice a day and when you’re eating correctly you get satiated properly and are not hungry, if you’re hungry you’re lacking nutrition and if you keep eating veggies it’s shuttling that protein quickly out of your system and you don’t absorb it, more meat. More animal fat. Also weight training is a slow and long game when all you need to do it sprint. Sprinting activate your entire body more than weightlifting, you’ll get jacked just doing that. You must improve circulation to allow your body to heal on the proper carnivore diet to allow for optimization. Fat is not all one thing, there’s 3 types of fat and one is beneficial, that’s why body builders still get heart attacks and strokes oh and guess what they eat 6 times a day protein and carbs/veggie, think about it the fiber we cannot digest gets pushed along and intact take plenty protein with it leaving you malnourished wanting more

Never heard Adam before now, but wow what a breath of fresh air. Promoting a sensible, level-headed and balanced approach to health and fitness. Truly excellent stuff.
Mindpump is such a spot on name for this channel! Not only do I feel inspired with each episode in regard to my own health journey…but you guys pump me up as a trainer! I literally want to shout and share with every client of my own how much better it is to chase health and wellness over appearance. This episode is full of SO much knowledge and info 💪🏽🙌🏽
He's right! When I weighed 265, I forced myself on a chicken/fish/eggs/broccoli diet with lots of weights exercise. I went from 265 down to 215 in 4 months. But...I was miserable...I hated the way I did it. Gained it all back. Losing weight, getting healthy is a lifestyle..not a burden. I learned better & easier...no rush, no stress, enjoy the journey. "Diet" is short term with one goal. "Lifestyle" is the opposite...long term and easy.
It's good to see Adam outside of mindpump

Realistically no one is losing 20% body fat in 30 days. It's just not a common thing. Patience and consistency is key. I started almost exactly 1 year ago, went from 255 to 195, and in that time from 32% to about 14% now, packed on a lot of muscle in this newbie gain period, and I've never felt better. But I've also ate the exact same things for the past 12 months, 6 days a week, I have one cheat day a week where I go as nuts as I want, and by the time that day is over? I'm pumped to get back on the diet like normal until the next Saturday. CONSISTENCY bois, that's the "secret" here. Rushing shit? It won't last.

@jakehopt Yup. I never really get above 20% and it still takes me from the Tuesday after the Super Bowl til July 4th to get down to 10% no cheats if I want to preserve all the winter lean mass gains. All that said, strange deceptive clickbait headline. Granted I watched a 2x speed but I never saw either of them actually claim you could do it in 30 days. If you did 20% BF reduction / recomp in 30 days you're on a serious designer cocktail of GLP-1s and AAS's because no human can do that naturally. It's on the order of 2lbs of fat loss PER DAY with (and here's the kicker) no adverse impact on, and likely increase in, lean mass (which translates to no or very little cardio and even then it would need to be all LSD with heart rate never exceeding 120 ish METs staying round 3 to 3.5 ish). Not. Gonna. Happen. Naturally. No matter how dialed in you are.
I really loved this video guys. Thank you so much! I’m a very “all of nothing” type of person. It’s what helped me get me back working out & eating healthy but its not always the healthiest mindset. I’ve been on my fitness journey for a year and a half & im really trying to find balance and give myself grace when I miss a day in the gym or have a bad day of eating on the weekends. This was the depth I really needed today. It’s not the most important thing but I think what’s really helping me personally is that I’m really loving the process & how I’m feeling and not getting too caught up in only the way I look or the validation from others. But the days I notice I’m stronger or my workout gets easier that feels so good!

You're stunning
This was excellent. I am a trainer, pilates instructor,pharmacist, nutrition coach.
Just heard this, but it's what I've been doing the past 2 months. I fast M/W/F, then aim for 220 grams of protein the days I eat, while limiting carbs. With the goal of 220g of protein and my stomach being smaller from fasting, hitting that is a chore, and you won't have any need to eat bullshit. So I don't track calories just protein and kind track carbs. I workout 5 days a week. I've lost 17 lbs, with a noticeable change in the mirror and I'm feeling better everyday.
Adam the King
Waouw ! First time that I see a coach being realistic, not extreme and thinking LT (and thus avoiding the extreme known fad diets and methods). I don’t know this person but if he has a channel I will certainly subscribe. He sees how sport helps us being better physically but also mentally. And it’s strange to say but he looks like a very nice person who is happy and balanced in his life. He exsudes good vibes ✨✨
Saw Adam and came for the wisdom!
So so so true. It's speaking from experience. So much wisdom and rational approach. If people applied this knowledge it would be the best health care system investment. I love your (and all the Mind Pump guys') no bullshit approach. Thank you.
17:45 + yes!!!! The full health circle!! Omg, everyone needs to hear this video. I'm sharing this video with everyone!!!
Dammmm this is a good video. Thank you.
What I find lots can’t give up the time, the taste, and now arguably the cost has gone up more than whole food. Put the work in your food and it will work for you. 😊
Taking proper rest between sets has been a game changer for me. After injuring myself due to fatigue, I rest properly
Saw ADAM and clicked the moused hard AF!
43:46 Eat whole foods, strength train 3 days a week, get 7 hours or more of sleep, use progressive overload to break through plateus. And for us Big 3 guys doing 5/5 reps (which is what I do twice a week) pushing to reach 15 reps on big lifts. Rests: 2-3 minutes between sets to get higher gains. Change rest period or tempo to break plateus. I rest 60 seconds between sets rn for bench, deadlift and squat but, I'll try resting for 2 minutes now for better hypertrophy. I haven't heard of four-two-two before.four second negative when lowering the weight, 2 second pauses, 2 second positive raising the weight - has this been proven to increase hypertrophy?
WTF❤This man is so real. 😮 lord. You just never know if the guy next to you is enlightened AF. Never doubt your neighbor. Have faith in everyone. I LOVE fitness trainers. By far, they have been the best people in my life. I’ve connected to every one I’ve had like a brother or sister. It’s likely the endorphins, but you gotta admit, they’re cool AF. Thanks bro for being so down to earth and So insightful, as well as generous with your insights.
This hits the nail dead on for me. I went from 314 pounds down to 184. Then I started putting on muscle and currently weigh 220. But no matter how little I eat and how much I walk or run and fit weights, I just cannot lose anymore fat. I am freaking stuck. I’m 48 years old down to eating 1500 calories lifting and doing cardio 6 days a week. Constantly exhausted and getting so dam depressed

You have to gradually increase your calories and decrease the cardio. Focus on protein and resistance training. Throw away the scale for a while and just check your measurements once a month. Your body needs more muscle right now.
Can you discuss how to manage skin laxity that might occur from losing this last body fat? Feel like it might be an issue and maybe certain foods or supplements might help? Not sure.
I was at 88.9 KG at around 38% body fat back in November. Worked on optimising my health, training 6 days a week, change my lifestyle and I am currently at 68.2 KG at 21.9% Body fat. It took me around 6 months of consistency to get here. My aim is to get to 18% body fat from here on.
This fellow is really good!!! ❤
I track macros granularly and weigh/measure everything whenever I fall off the wagon and put on 5-10 pounds. Within 2-3 months months I'm right back to my ideal weight. No diet, just fit the macros. I always eat mostly clean, whole foods anyway so I don't need to be on a diet to eat healthy. Tracking allows me to recalibrate portion sizes and to reduce the high calorie snacks.
As an ex personal trainer, I wish I was able to implement plans as “common sense” as this. Well done.
Definitely always feel better on days after a workout 💪🔥😊 Endorphins are real 🎉
Good advice on the psychology of losing body fat and having a mentally healthy outlook without discontent /dysmorphia
What do you include in a full body weight training routine?
Best part 37:55 As much as I enjoyed this honest convo on fitness there is a huge piece missing for those who are comfortably in shape. I've seen reddit posts about men at 10% body fat and how miserable they are trying to maintain it, and totally get how that negatively effects mental health. BUT Doug and Adam didn't at all cover enough of is what it's like for people who are fit and happy. Aside from just feeling better from working out - a fat person can do that - but once you reach the state where you are fit, flat belly, have a 6 pack - but aren't ripped and veiny. Like, Mark Wahlberg's normal physique versus Brad Pitt in Troy
I recently bought the mind pump 40s bundle and as someone used to classes, (but not in a gym setting)I kind of don’t know where to start. Do I hire a trainer? Do I work it out on my own? Etc etc.

If you're new to weight training I'd recommend hiring a trainer so you learn excellent technique from the start. Technique is paramount to progressing and minimizing injury risk
I had the best results doing OMAD, certainly was not Plant based. Not doing OMAD atm, as I am in maintenance mode. When I did OMAD ( just one way of eating - not a diet ) I lost 18 kgs / 39 lbs. When tracked which was rare - my intake comprised of 60% fat and 20% each from carbs and Protein. Protein came to about half of what is currently recommend, again not ideal but it worked our for me. NEAT was / is my go-to way to move and weights and body weight was / is my way to add resistance to the muscular system.
Look up a BMR calculator and use it. Take the smallets number and eat that many calories. When you hit a plateau, recalculate your BMR. Once you get close to your goal or a healthier weight then address your macros and go from there.
I lost 30lb in 30 days 245lb to 215lb from may 1st to June first. Got the scale log to prove it. Cardio 1 hour a day plus 20 min weight training. Intermittent fasting and paleo/keto diet.

I wish that Adam did more outside pod interviews because Sal tends to repeat the same stories and studies in every interview. 😂 You can tell Adam is just in the moment, and nothing feels stale about what he's sharing. While I like Sal a lot, I actually find Adam to be the best because he keeps it so basic, and he's real/blunt.
This is great. Im 2weeks in on a 4 wk comp..its basically set out like the last 4 weeks of a shred before being stage ready. So weights 5 days a week, cardio and low cal. I thought 4wks is not a big deal...or is it? I was going to get into a lean build after. So dropping most cardio, go out once or twice a wk and cut back weights to...now im thinking 2 full body per wk lol. Thanks 42yrold woman.

Speaking if bad motivational approaches, i wish you could tell this to the Army. If you are slow at running their strategy run 5 days a week.

Damn that’s em but 226 lbs and 30bf wanna get back down to 200 lbs and be able to stay there not binge back up again
I know now after all these years, my true goal was to lose BF and not necessarily pounds in weight. I thought by losing weight on the scale I was winning. In reality I wasn’t because I still held a lot of BF. I’m currently 220 and hit the weights 3 days a week but my struggle is getting enough protein.

Waaay overweight 9-13k steps a day at work on average almost never below. Record was 25k steps but that was a 17 hour work day. Spent 20 years putting on 100 pounds of body fat...(doing this same job and activity level for 18 years)
Must be something strange about me then because I've always been an active hiker with a clean diet and have always been overweight. The first time I ever lost weight was on keto. Lately I tried carnivore and lost 20lbs. What I've learned is that when I eat carbs I can't stop.

I was a little over 29% body fat on March 1st(start of cut). I got a scan done on May 1st and was 24.2% body fat after 2 months. I expect to be around 20% July 1st. So roughly 10% in 4 months. So if I keep tracking well I could possibly go from 30%-10% in 8 months. Maybe I could be doing things to make it even quicker(I’m not doing any cardio). Everyone’s different and reacts differently but he seems to be correct in what he said 6-8 months.

Get tested for Hypothyroidism.
Im fluxing 220-215. Just trying to get under 200 right now
The primary focus is to change the body composition from more fat and less muscle, to more muscle and less fat. Weight loss is secondary aa the overall focus.
Maybe i misunderstood this, but it would take 6-8 months to recomp from 200lbs 30% bodyfat to 200lbs 10% bodyfat? Thats a gain of 40 lbs of lean body tissue. while also losing the ame amount of fat. Israetel and Nippard both seem to suggest beginners gain about 10-15lbs of tissue in their first year while eating at a surplus.
"it only takes 30 days" I wish, 2 months in at 500 cal deficit/day + 5 days in the gym doing resistance training I've shed an impressive 15lbs (or almost 2lbs a week)
I lost 80lbs instantly on keto then ditched that and hit the weights. The whole process to me was so simple, but now I’m struggling to get stronger is my only issue! That’s why i follow the MP podcast hahaha!

High protein and standard carb intake. That and allowing rest and not overtraining. 10 to 12 sets per muscle a WEEK, that means 2 training sessions of 5-6 sets at full effort will grow mass and strength. More is junk volume and detrimental unless you are on the sauce or actually not training hard enough. Genetics are a thing as well, type 2 vs 1 muscle fibers, limits etc play a big factor.
When figuring your protein intake, say for chicken, its like 5.25 grams of protein per ounce. So thats like 36 ounces of chicken ( like 9 breast? Lol) if i want 190 grams of protein. That to be weighed before or after cooking?
30% To 10% in 30days like u thumbnails are crazy 0.9 x 20 = 18 x 7500kcal = 135 000 / 30days = 4 500kcal per day u need to burn in order for it to work in 30days
