Coach Matt Fried

The ONE thing that matters for your health & fitness is ...

.. thing that you are doing 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗻𝗼𝘄.

Whatever it is.

Even if that's:

- Cleaning up your desk
- Fulfilling a promise
- Shopping for groceries

Because how you do 1 thing is how you do everything.

And while every step you take won't always be your best ...

.. the more you focus on making each step a step towards your 'higher self' ...

.. the more you will emobdy that version of you.

Make no mistake about it:

This is NOT 'woo-woo'.

Getting fit, lean, and strong IS an identity shift.

It's mostly NOT a fruit & vegetable problem.

You already know what the healthier version of you needs to eat.

"Why, in your own words, are we on this phone call today?"

This is the first question I ask EVERY TIME someone wants to chat with me about their health.

Because inevitably, things will get tough.

You will run into challenges.

You will slip into old habits.

And your WHY is one helpful anchor to keep the ship sailing in the right direction.

⚡️ Coach Matt

Your kids don't care what you say.

They model what you do.

(Or don't do.)

If you want to be the man they look up to for health, fitness, & vitality ...

.. then you must lead by example.

You can begin simply by walking every day, consistently.

Uncomfortable truth about 'Big Food':

There is NO ONE from Big Food standing in between you and the fruits & vegetables.

Except you.

The more you feed yourself with it, the more you feed that system.

Disagree?

I'd love to discuss below.

⚡️ Coach Matt

I used to eat just like you.

Tons of takeout, fried foods, heavy, calorie-dense foods.

Often, extreme amounts of them.

What changed?

One milestone was:

I did the 30-day 'Paleo Challenge'.

(Paleo was 'new' back then.)

I learned a lot about what it means to remove things for a while.

But you don't have to take such an extreme step.

You can be 20% more flexible than that.

'I always end up eating kids food ...'

That's not a food problem.

That's a planning problem.

Follow me to get really good at planning your dinners - and your health.

⚡ Coach Matt

You don't wake up in the morning and think:

'I want to do cone sprinting drills.'

So you go back to bed, or get on with your day.

Instead, think:

'I need my heart & legs to be really strong when I'm 80, so I will do sprints today.'

When you think that way, there is only one course of action.

Men: follow Coach Matt Fried for tips about how to get lean, strong, & fit at any age.

PS: For a free sprint training plan for beginners who want to get their hearts healthier - even if you haven't run in years - comment 𝗛𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗧 and I'll send it your way.

Here's something you should know about fat loss:

You don't 𝑛𝑒𝑒𝑑 to go 'low-carb' in order to lose fat.

What governs fat loss is 𝐭𝐨𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐜 𝐛𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞.

Not total carb intake.

But, you don't have to believe a word I say.

Go ahead and ask ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini, or all 3, and see what they say for yourself.

Can some people benefit from an ultra-low-carb or ketogenic diet? Yes - 𝑠𝑜𝑚𝑒 - but not most.

While you do that, I'll keep eating my balanced diet of healthy foods that are a blend of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates ...

.. including bananas, oatmeals, rice, pasta, fruits, vegetables, plus occasional servings of cookies, chocolate, and ice cream ...

.. along with my chicken, eggs, steak, fish, nuts, & avocados ...

.. and I'll be here for your thoughts in the comments when you get back.

⚡️ Coach Matt

1 reason you're not making progress with your fat loss is:

You default back to the good/bad 'perfection' mindset.

This is normal - it takes practices to change your thinking.

One easy way to believe in yourself and this process is:

The 'Baseline/Better/Best' framework for meals.
