I am 24 year old 5' 9" tall and 82kg my bd fat % is around 18 how can i ripped down to 5 % mah i know how to split mh macro and how to diet it out successfully
Would it be okay to do the Xero bodyweight program with a weighted vest and shorts after completing it once?
Still waiting for the Teen Program…
To emphasize on the yoga practice, i think most guys would be surprised by how demanding it is. Specially in Ashtanga, not only doing the poses but keeping the transitions fluid is a really really cool and intense practice, and also you learn a lot of "energy plug" techniques.
Jeff – my impression from other videos are that cycling of creatine is not necessary and that 5g may be taken regularly. However in this video, v. Kre-Alkalyn, you suggest it does. Please clarify and as always thank you for the vid.
xD i laughed at the nipple part like 9minutes in
Hi Jeff, Id really like to hear what you think about pre workout nutrition for staying lean, but early in the morning. Do you have a suggestion for effective nutrition first thing in the morning that won't take too long to digest? I like to get to my workout within 30mins to an hour from when I wake up.
what is the best way to target the vastus medialis jeff?!
what about rest days
Jeff is the 🐐
52:21, we need a collaboration
I AM THE 1000th LIKE!!!!! All of my dreams just came true!

39:43 ,…. "and thats how i get it in, when im that tight" lul
I think Jeff needs to brink back the live video or something to answer questions and interact with people. This would be awesome
Why no more live streams ??
Got the X1 program and it looks great. Did not see a grocery list or recipes?
Hello from greece!
I am on a weight loss diet. And i eat 5 meals a day.
Once or twice a week, my job shift changes and i have to sleep for 4 hours, wake up at 5, so i eat my breakfast then. At around 8:30 i eat a second breakfast. Overall, to keep my eating habits, I have to eat 6 meals those days.
I was wondering if I have to spread my daily calorie goal across those 6 meals, or if me being awake for 4 more hours, gives me a bigger basal metabolic rate those days so I can eat a little bit more to keep the same deficit. Thank you
What about drinking diet soda with lean foods?

@ATHLEAN-X Hey Mr. Jeff, I am having problems with my right pectoral development and I hope you could look at a picture of me and let me know what I should do in order to bring it up.
I have been doing the shed while hubby is doing the build.
I am doing alarm level 1, but feel I can do alarm level 2, the only think holding me back is pull ups and push ups. I just cant do them and God have I tried lol. Can I swap those two exercises to alarm level 1, then the others do at alarm level 2?
We need more of these videos now
