Healthy meals for students and other busy people: 6-pack abs and gain muscle with good nutrition
Good nutrition is the secret to both losing fat and gaining muscle, in this video I show you how to eat 6 inexpensive, nutritious meals a day without cooking or shopping. This video is in response to the hundreds of people who have written me saying they knew their nutrition was horrible but felt powerless to improve it because of the schedule constraints of their work, school, or life. Eating 6 small, well balanced meals a day is easy when you know how and once your nutrition is on track you will find it easy to reduce bodyfat to show those 8-pack abs and gain muscle too. The one thing you need to do though is get rid of the idea that food always has to be tasty. Jack LaLane had a great saying “If it tastes good, spit it out!” and its so true. If something is that good then its got too much sugar, salt, fat or artificial flavors. Here are the meals I eat during the video:
5:00am coffee and protein powder mixed in water (about 100 cals)
6:30am oatmeal with flax and protein powder (about 400 cals)
9:30am mixed frozen vegetables with spaghetti sauce and protein powder mixed in water (about 400 cals)
12:00 shredded wheat with nonfat milk, flax, and protein powder (about 400 cals)
2:30pm can of kidney beans and raisins (about 300 cals)
5:00pm dried soybeans and raisins (about 300 cals)
7:30pm mixed frozen vegetables with spaghetti sauce and protein powder mixed in water (about 300 cals)
9:00pm protein powder mixed in water (100 cals)
If you eat too much your kidneys have to work overtime to get rid of it and its not healthy. How much protein consumption is too much? Many bodybuilders consume more than 1g protein per pound of body weight per day without any problems. I keep under that number, I weigh 240 lbs and consume about 200g protein a day.
You will notice that I didnt eat any chicken/meat/fish during the whole day, that is typical for me. I eat meat when I go out to restaurants (about once a week) but not at home. If you want, feel free to use meats for your protein rather than protein powder. You can get dried fish and meat, and you can also get canned salmon/tuna. Both of these are very convenient. If you have time, you can grill up some chicken twice a week and use this as your protein.
Many, many people have asked what protein powder I recommend. I would stick to protein powders that have the words “100% Natural” in the name. The protein powder I use is here:

People seem really confused about three products and its really important you get these straight or you will make some serious dietary mistakes!
Protein Powder – Contents: protein (whey, soy or egg)
Protein Shanks – Contents: protein (whey, soy or egg), sugar, assorted chemicals
Weight Gainer – Contents: protein (whey, soy or egg), sugar, assorted chemicals

And seriously, not knocking you cause you’re trying to help people out, but learn how to mix your protein.
A) Take how much you want to mix and put it in the glass FIRST.
B) Then pour in a little milk and mix it into a paste. This makes it so you wont have those lumps floating around.
C) Slowly pour in the rest of the milk while stirring and you will have completely mixed in your protein with the milk and you wont have lumps.

Anyway, displaying a surplus of energy and time and a generally healthy lifestyle (i.e. muscles and a tan) will usually be interpreted as a benefit to a potential partner (as long as it’s not too extreme) – which is exactly why white and fat/skinny PhDs don’t seem as attractive as a well built tanned guy. Personally I eat and train for my own sake and to be healthy – muscle is not a goal in itself but a mean to a wellbalanced life.
