The 12 Week Diet Plan
Each week will consist of 3 different types of eating days.
- High Carb Days - 1 day per week
- Moderate Carb Days - 3 days per week
- Low Carb Days - 3 days per week
You may structure these days in any preferred manner. I suggest keeping the high carb day for special occasions. That way you can attend family functions, or eat out with friends, and indulge a little more than normal.
It should be noted that calorie intake can be adjusted based on metabolism. The follow changes are recommended:
- Men 40+ - Reduce daily calories by 300.
- Men 20-25 - Increase daily calories by 300.
- Women 40+ - Reduce daily calories by 200.
- Women 20-25 - Increase daily calories by 200.

Protein intake should be a minimum of 180 grams per day. If you are a bigger guy, or have a fair amount of muscle mass, then eat 200 to 220 grams of protein per day. If you eat a little more protein the drop your daily fat intake to make up for the calories.

Also, you are allowed up to 10% of your daily calories from dirty foods/junk foods. You do not have to eat any junk if you prefer. This option exists as a convenience, should you be battling a craving, or attending a social gathering where you would prefer to have a small snack.

Notes For This Workout:
Typical heart-rate should be 75-85% of max heart-rate. This is a tough routine, so start yourself off easy and increase the intensity as capable.
- Jumping Lunges are done without weight.
- Butt Kicks are done with 10lb ankle weight on each leg.
- Muffin Tops should be completed with 25lb weight min.
- IF you have a friend, during static crunch (torso should be 45 degrees to floor) have him play “catch” with a 5 to 8 pound medicine ball. Tossing over head (where client has top reach above his head to catch it) adds a little extra “kick” to this exercise.
