The Real Reason You Fail Diets
47sReveals the blunt truth that laziness is the root cause of diet failure, relatable and eye-opening.
▶ Play ClipThe video emphasizes that the key to a successful muscle-building diet is simplicity and convenience. It advises using only 2-3 simple meal options and kitchen helpers like blenders and rice cookers to ensure adherence. The core method involves calculating daily protein intake, splitting it evenly across 3-6 meals, and building each meal around a protein source, auto-regulating other foods by hunger.
Make the diet so simple to follow that failure is impossible; laziness is the main reason for skipping meals or binge eating.
Focus on only 2-3 simple meal options per meal type to avoid complexity.
Blenders for smoothies and rice cookers for rice, oats, or steaming vegetables simplify preparation.
Determine daily protein intake (e.g., 150g) and split evenly across 3-6 meals.
For each meal, choose a protein source (e.g., chicken breast, Greek yogurt, tuna, protein powder) and use the amount that provides the required protein grams.
No need to count calories; simply add enough carbohydrates and fats to satisfy hunger while meeting protein targets.
By prioritizing convenience and protein distribution, anyone can build a sustainable muscle-building diet without obsessive calorie counting. The video also promotes specialized nutrition plans for cutting or bulking.
"Provides a simple, actionable meal plan and tips; the 'free meal plan' likely refers to the in-video example, making the title mostly accurate."

06:00[00:00] the, key, to, making, a, great, muscle
[00:01] building, diet, is, to, make, it, so, simple, to
[00:03] follow, that, there, is, no, chance, that, you
[00:05] will, fail, what, do, I, mean, by, that, well
[00:07] it's, very, simple, the, main, thing, that, you
[00:09] should, focus, on, is, convenience, let, me
[00:12] give, you, a, couple, of, examples, how, you
[00:14] can, make, your, diet, way, more, convenient
[00:16] which, will, lead, to, you, being, able, to
[00:18] stick, to, it, for, a, long, time, without
[00:20] going, on, some, Psychopathic, bench, or
[00:22] skipping, meals, that, you, were, supposed, to
[00:24] eat, because, all, the, binge, eating, or
[00:26] skipping, meals, stems, from, one, simple
[00:28] reason, and, as, you, might, have, already
[00:30] guessed, the, reason, is, laziness, you, need
[00:33] to, make, your, diet, as, easy, as, grabbing, a
[00:35] bag, of, chips, from, your, cupboard, you
[00:37] might, think, that, something, like, this, is
[00:39] not, possible, but, if, you, use, all, the, tips
[00:41] that, I'm, going, to, share, with, you, today
[00:43] it, will, become, a, reality, when, you, are
[00:45] building, your, diet, Focus, only, on, couple
[00:47] of, simple, meals, so, have, like, two, to
[00:49] three, options, for, each, meal, and, only
[00:51] select, between, them, you, don't, need, to
[00:53] become, Goden
[00:54] ramsy, couple, of, simple, options, is, all
[00:57] you, need, the, main, focus, should, be, on, how
[00:59] easy, to, those, meals, are, to, prepare
[01:01] because, the, harder, something, is, to
[01:02] prepare, the, more, likely, you, are, to, skip
[01:04] it, or, replace, it, with, junk, food, I, for
[01:07] example, always, have, a, protein, smoothie
[01:09] or, overnight, oats, for, breakfast, and, do
[01:11] you, know, why, because, these, foods, are, so
[01:13] easy, to, make, that, I, don't, even, have, to
[01:15] think, while, making, them, and, that's
[01:17] exactly, how, it, should, be, if, I, had, to
[01:19] wake, up, and, make, a, Sul, for, breakfast, of
[01:22] course, that, I, would, skip, it, and, just
[01:23] grab, something, that, I'm, not, supposed, to
[01:25] eat, instead, because, that's, just, way, too
[01:27] complicated, sure, you, might, be, able, to
[01:29] prepare, prepare, very, complicated, meals
[01:31] for, like, a, week, but, then, you, will, give
[01:33] up, anyway, because, something, like, that, is
[01:35] not, sustainable, you, need, to, develop, a
[01:37] system, that, you, can, follow, for, the, rest
[01:38] of, your, life, when, you, start, a, new, diet
[01:41] and, you, want, to, quit, it, after, 3, days, you
[01:43] obviously, didn't, do, a, great, job
[01:45] designing, the, diet, in, the, first, place, to
[01:47] make, your, meals, even, easier, to, make, take
[01:49] advantage, of, Handy, Kitchen, helpers
[01:51] blender, for, example, is, a, great
[01:53] investment, if, you, are, into, smoothies
[01:55] frozen, fruit, with, Greek, yogurt, protein
[01:58] powder, or, any, other, protein, source, is
[02:00] one, of, the, easiest, meals, in, existence
[02:02] and, of, course, I, can't, forget, about, the
[02:04] rice, cooker, honestly, if, you, don't, have, a
[02:06] rice, cooker, what, are, you, doing, this, is
[02:08] hands, down, the, best, kitchen, helper, to
[02:10] simplify, your, diet, the, fact, that, you, can
[02:12] just, set, it, and, forget, it, makes, it
[02:14] invaluable, I, wish, I, had, some, company
[02:17] that, makes, rice, cookers, to, sponsor, me
[02:19] because, I, just, cannot, recommend, it
[02:20] enough, most, rice, cookers, are, not, limited
[02:22] to, just, rice, you, can, also, cook, oats, or
[02:25] steam, vegetables, the, rice, cooker, will
[02:27] become, your, best, friend, trust, me, now, I
[02:30] will, show, you, how, to, build, a, muscle
[02:31] building, diet, that, is, very, easy, to
[02:33] follow, everyone, knows, that, the, main
[02:35] pillar, of, any, muscle, building, diet, is
[02:37] protein, that's, why, the, first, thing, that
[02:39] you, need, to, do, is, to, calculate, your
[02:41] daily, protein, intake, you, calculate, your
[02:43] daily, protein, intake, by, using, this
[02:45] formula, once, you, know, your, daily, protein
[02:47] intake, you, should, split, this, protein
[02:49] amount, relatively, evenly, between, your
[02:51] meals, the, number, of, meals, I, recommend, is
[02:53] between, 3, to, 6, meals, per, day, and, if, you
[02:56] ask, me, why, do, I, need, to, split, my, protein
[02:58] intake, into, multiple, meals, why, can't, I
[03:00] just, eat, it, all, at, once, well, that's, a
[03:03] very, good, question, every, time, you, give
[03:04] your, body, a, good, amount, of, protein, you
[03:06] give, your, body, an, opportunity, to, build
[03:08] muscle, and, because, we, are, trying, to
[03:10] build, the, maximum, amount, of, muscle
[03:11] possible, we, need, to, give, our, body, as
[03:13] many, opportunities, for, that, to, happen, I
[03:16] know, that, some, of, you, are, now, thinking
[03:17] about, eating, 16, meals, per, day, but, it
[03:20] doesn't, work, like, that, that's, why, I, told
[03:22] you, to, be, in, the, free, to, six, meals, range
[03:25] if, you, want, to, eat, more, than, six, meals
[03:26] per, day, then, you, can, do, so, but, you, won't
[03:29] get, any, extra, benefits, from, that, on, the
[03:31] other, hand, if, you, are, eating, less, than
[03:33] three, meals, per, day, you, are, leaving
[03:34] gains, on, the, table, it, doesn't, matter, if
[03:37] you, pick, three, four, five, or, six, meals
[03:39] the, results, are, pretty, much, going, to, be
[03:41] the, same, you, should, pick, the, number, of
[03:43] meals, that, works, best, with, your, schedule
[03:45] and, that, you, enjoy, the, most, so, let's, say
[03:47] that, our, daily, protein, intake, is, 150, g
[03:51] and, we, want, to, eat, four, meals, per, day, so
[03:53] if, we, split, those, 150, g, of, protein
[03:56] between, four, meals, we, will, end, up, with
[03:58] roughly, 37, .5, g, of, protein, in, each, meal
[04:02] keep, in, mind, that, you, don't, need, to, hit
[04:03] that, number, exactly, you, can, be, more
[04:05] flexible, with, it, as, long, as, it, balances
[04:07] out, at, the, end, of, the, day, and, once, you
[04:10] know, how, many, grams, of, protein, you, need
[04:11] in, each, meal, you, can, just, pick, a, protein
[04:13] source, that, you, want, and, use, the, amount
[04:16] of, it, that, is, equal, to, the, amount, of
[04:17] protein, you, need, in, each, meal, so, for
[04:20] example, if, I, pick, chicken, breast, as, my
[04:22] protein, Source, I, will, need, roughly, 165, G
[04:25] of, chicken, breast, to, get, the, 37.5, g, of
[04:28] protein, from, it, and, you, just, repeat, this
[04:31] process, for, every, single, one, of, your
[04:32] meals, this, will, cover, all, of, your
[04:34] protein, needs, so, you, can, build, as, much
[04:36] muscle, as, possible, then, you, can, build
[04:39] the, rest, of, the, meal, around, the, protein
[04:40] Source, you, chose, so, let, me, show, you, an
[04:42] example, of, how, this, could, look, if, I
[04:44] wanted, to, create, a, meal, plan, for, a, day
[04:46] we, will, still, be, using, the, same, example
[04:48] as, before, so, 150, g, of, protein, spread
[04:51] relatively, evenly, amongst, for, Ms, which
[04:54] as, I, said, before, is, roughly, 37.5, g, of
[04:58] protein, in, each, meal, so, so, protein
[05:00] source, for, meal, one, will, be, Greek, yogurt
[05:02] and, to, get, close, to, the, amount, of
[05:04] protein, we, need, in, each, meal, we, will, use
[05:06] roughly, 300, G, of, Greek, yogurt, now, we
[05:08] will, do, the, exact, same, thing, with
[05:10] different, protein, sources, for, all, of, our
[05:12] meals, for, meal, two, we, will, use, 165, G, of
[05:16] chicken, breast, meal, three, will, be, 130, G
[05:20] of, canned, tuna, and, for, meal, four, we, will
[05:23] have, two, scoops, of, protein, powder, and
[05:25] that's, the, most, important, part, done, now
[05:27] you, can, just, finish, all, the, meals, with
[05:29] stuffed, that, goes, well, with, the, protein
[05:31] source, so, we, are, going, to, do, that, now
[05:33] protein, source, of, meal, one, was, Greek
[05:35] yogurt, so, we, will, add, some, fruit, to, make
[05:37] a, protein, smoothie, protein, source, for
[05:39] meal, 2, was, chicken, breast, so, here, we
[05:41] will, add, some, rice, protein, source, for
[05:43] meal, 3, was, can, tuna, so, we, will, add, pasta
[05:47] to, make, a, tuna, pasta, salad, and, protein
[05:49] source, for, meal, four, was, protein, powder
[05:51] so, we, will, add, a, couple, of, rice, cakes, to
[05:53] make, a, nice, snake, before, bath, and, if, you
[05:56] ask, for, example, how, much, rice, should, I
[05:58] add, to, the, meal, my, my, answer, to, that, is
[06:00] just, adding, the, amount, that, will, satisfy
[06:02] your, hunger, this, meal, plan, is, not, taking
[06:05] into, account, calorie, counting, or, any
[06:07] other, in-depth, stuff, it's, all, about
[06:09] getting, in, your, protein, and, then, just
[06:11] Auto, regulating, everything, else, it's, the
[06:13] easiest, way, of, making, sure, that, you, will
[06:15] build, muscle, while, not, having, to, worry
[06:17] about, counting, anything, else, than, that
[06:20] but, if, you, are, someone, who, has, a, clear
[06:21] goal, in, mind, so, either, cutting, or
[06:24] bulking, I, have, the, pleasure, to, introduce
[06:26] you, to, my, brand, new, nutrition, plans, I
[06:29] spend, hundreds, of, hours, creating, them
[06:31] and, today, is, the, day, that, they, are
[06:32] finally, finished, I, know, how, complicated
[06:35] it, feels, to, create, a, meal, plan, for, a
[06:37] specific, goal, for, someone, who, has, very
[06:39] little, experience, with, it, that's, why, I
[06:41] created, these, nutrition, plans, I, compiled
[06:44] everything, you, need, to, know, about
[06:45] nutrition, into, an, easy, to, follow
[06:47] step-by-step, guide, it, doesn't, matter, if
[06:50] you, want, to, bul, up, lose, weight, or, just
[06:52] maintain, your, current, weight, I, got, you
[06:54] covered, I, don't, want, to, say, that, I
[06:56] created, a, revolutionary, system, because
[06:59] that, would, be, too, egoistical, but, it's
[07:01] revolutionary, I, have, honestly, never, seen
[07:04] anything, similar, to, what, I, have, created
[07:06] other, nutrition, plants, are, usually
[07:08] pre-written, and, you, can't, really, change
[07:10] that, much, about, them, but, I, created, a
[07:12] streamline, process, that, you, can, use, to
[07:14] create, a, meal, plan, using, all, the, foods
[07:16] you, like, to, achieve, your, goal, and, the
[07:18] best, part, about, it, is, that, throughout
[07:20] the, whole, guide, I, will, be, making, an
[07:21] example, meal, plan, with, you, so, you, just
[07:24] have, to, copy, what, I, do, and, you, are, set, I
[07:26] believe, that, this, is, the, easiest, way, of
[07:28] creating, a, meal, plan, out, there, so, click
[07:31] the, link, in, the, description, and, start
[07:32] the
[07:33] day, and, in, the, end, I, just, want, to, thank
[07:36] everyone, for, the, huge, amount, of, support
[07:38] in, the, last, couple, of, months, it, truly
[07:40] means, a, lot, to, me, and, I, would, not, have
[07:41] been, able, to, read, without, you, so, thank
[07:44] you, and, an, extra, thank, you, to, all, the
[07:46] supporters, on, my
