He lets people see him in a positive light and be positive to others because not doing so is not conducive to growth for anybody. Eating healthy has helped Robert stay positive. At the end of the day, it’s easy for Robert to stay positive because he’s grateful. [03:20] Why Robert Wrote Ketogenic Bodybuilding: A Natural Athlete’s Guide to Competitive Savagery Get Ketogenic Bodybuilding: A Natural Athlete’s Guide to Competitive Savagery: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09QZ68MJ7/benazadi-20 This book took Robert two years to write. It’s all the lessons Robert has learned from the last seven years. Overall, it’s a great resource for people who want to improve their composition. [07:20] How To Increase Your Protein During Mealtime If you're trying to build more muscle, you may not benefit from doing an OMAD approach. In a building phase, Robert will eat two or three meals a day. Currently, Robert eats 3,000 calories a day and 220 grams of protein. If Robert had to eat all of that in one meal, he would be miserable. Robert uses My Macros+: https://www.getmymacros.com/ [09:45] What’s The Difference Between Animal-Based and Plant-Based Proteins? Animal-base is just going to be more bioavailable, and it has a better amino acid profile. You can succeed on a plant-based diet. However, you are going to have more supplements. Robert eats a lot of meat and doesn’t have any issues with it. Meat helps Robert streamline and simplify his meal prep. [16:30] How Can You Be A Body Builder Without Any Carbs? Most people didn’t think it was possible to lift hard and heavy on a low-carb diet. Plus, people told Robert that he wasn’t going to have any energy. Well, keto helped Robert improve his relationship with food. Haters will talk smack all day long; Robert doesn’t listen to it. Read Metabolic Characteristics of Keto-Adapted Ultra-Endurance Runners: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0026049515003340 [19:10] Will Eating High Protein Knock You Out of Ketosis? When it comes to bodybuilding and body composition, Robert is not really worried about people having a lot of protein. If you’re eating minimal carbs and you feel great, then you’re obviously functioning on fat and ketones. If your calories are very low, you may want to leave fat higher and decrease protein because fat is great for energy. Don’t leave protein low indefinitely. [21:50] Should You Throw Away Your Scale? How To Track Your Health Robert says, “don’t throw away your scale!” He likes to look at his weight as a data point. Weight doesn’t show the whole picture, but it does show one piece of data. Instead, your composition should be what you measure. Also, take pictures and measurements. [25:50] Why Robert Decided To Develop The Keto Brick Purchase Keto Brick meal replacement bars here: https://glnk.io/1l3/thebenazadi Keto Bricks help Robert hit his macros more efficiently, take the guesswork out of meal prep, and it is just super convenient. It’s a 1,000 calorie meal replacement bar. Overall, it makes hitting your fat macros much easier. A lot of people have a hard time getting enough dietary fat, so it helps streamline that process. [29:10] Why You Should Consider Buying The Keto Brick There are seven full-time flavors. The top flavor is a chocolate peanut butter cup. In the future, there will be a keto brick that only has eight total grams of carbs. For 1,000 calories, eight grams of carbs is unreal! Most keto products are absolute crap, and they are not worth your time. [33:50] How To Get Started With Fitness If you're doing nothing, getting up off of the couch and moving is progress in the right direction. If you haven’t trained before, start with a push-pull leg routine. Anything is going to be better than nothing! If you are already in a legitimate regimen, then increase weight, increase time under tension, increase density, and increase frequency. [36:15] What Should You Do If You Feel Sore The Next Day? Don’t do the same muscle group again. If you just started training, you will have a week or two of muscle soreness. To get through muscle soreness, you should train through it. If you’re a seasoned lifter, you may benefit from a week where you decrease the intensity. [41:20] Should You Work Out Fasted or Have a Meal Before Exercise? It comes down to preference. Robert prefers fasted workouts. Fats take a long time to absorb; you won’t make use of those calories. Robert eats his evening meal as his “pre-workout meal” for the next day. AND MUCH MORE!
