23.01.2022 THE PLANT BASED DIET At The Pit we've always been the biggest fan of loads of vegetables...the more the better. But let's get real...... Most of todays health problems are caused from: too much processed foods not moving enough and lack of sleep Focus on fixing those issues first before you start: Cutting lean animal proteins Limiting dairy Going on an unsustainable diet We've got no problem with vegan or plant based diets but it's important to have a sustainable nutrition plan for your lifestyle. People get confused with documentaries like The Game Changers and believe it's some shiny new diet and the answer to all their problems. They start going to the extreme blaming chickens and their eggs on why they are fat and unhealthy. The reality is you're fat and unhealthy because you eat to many donuts, sit on your rear all day and get shit sleep because you're always stressed. Our advice...keep it simple. Follow a diet you can actually stick to and stop blaming those poor chickens www.thegorillapit.com.au

19.01.2022 CREATE HABITS NOT MOTIVATION! Too many people waste energy on trying to get motivated to achieve their transformation goal. When all you need to do is simply start creating daily habits to set you up for success.... Just like Caine did with his amazing transformation. Here are some examples: - Get some quality sleep 7-8 hours per night - Prep your meals for the week - Stick to your nutrition plan - Train HARD when you're at the gym - Drink water 3-4L per day When you stop wasting your energy on 'trying to motivate yourself' and instead start focusing on DOING... that's when results actually start happening! You can think about it and talk about it all you want. Until you take action it's all just hopes and dreams So in the words of the great Nike... Just Do It! It's the last week to register for the 2020 12-week transformation challenge. To register and find out more just click here https://thegorillapitonline.com/universal

18.01.2022 Transformations happen by doing the simple stuff... Training 3-4x per week (hard) Getting 7+ hours of sleep each night Following a simple, sustainable nutrition plan (usually one high in protein and veggies )... Keep your body moving Do these before you start buying supplements, cutting calories or doing endless hours on the treadmill. Always remember daily, seemingly insignificant tasks done over and over again will yield massive results. www.thegorillapit.com.au

17.01.2022 3 Muscle Building Myths That Need to Die 1 You Need to Train Everyday with Monster Sessions This idea ignores the most overlooked factor in muscle growth...recovery.... Remember your muscle grows during the recovery phase, not at the gym. So if your constantly doing 2hour gym sessions every day and not seeing any real progress then it may be time to look into getting a structured program. Here at The Pit we're big on 3-4 training sessions per week based on your targets. 2 You Should Do the Same Program as the Biggest Guy in the Gym We here this often. 'Well pro bodybuilder so and so does it'. Yeah that's also his sole purpose in life. These guys have the most amazing genetics and have been doing it for years if not decades. There are also so many other variables that come into play such as nutrition, stress, sleep, supplements and the intensity at which you train. Best tip is to incorporate big compound lifts such as deadlifts, squats and presses. Keep the weight heavy but it's more important to have control and tension on the muscle. No one's ever impressed by how much weight you can unrack and do half reps. 3 Eat as Much as You Can aka 'The Dirty Bulk' I'm yet to see any average Joe pull this off with any real success. What I'm talking about is the idea of eating whatever you want whenever you want to put on as much 'weight' as possible. Most guys just get fat doing this. Yeah you might put on 10kg and get a little stronger but how much lean muscle mass did you add to the frame? Nutrition plays a vital role when adding muscle mass especially your intake of protein and carbs. Here at The Pit we're big believers of getting lean before you try and get big. So if you see a mate smashing a few Big Macs saying 'It's ok Im in a muscle building phase'. What he is really saying is putting on muscle is too hard for me, I don't know what the hell I'm doing and I just like Big Macs. www.thegorillapit.com.au

15.01.2022 QUICK AND EASY FAT LOSS METHODS... Sorry there are no quick easy fixes... But try these methods that (if completed daily) will help drop that stubborn fat ... 1- Get to the gym Hit the gym 3-4 times per week focusing on big compound lifts (presses, squats, deadlifts and pull-ups) plus some high intensity interval cardio. 2- Swap your processed carbs for veggies We're not anti-carb here at The Pit however we do know that 95% of people do well on a sustainable nutrition plan that is dominate in protein, healthy fats and veggies. 3- Get some shut eye I get it. We're all busy but science tells us that we need between 7-9 hours each night. Not getting enough? Try putting your phone away. The average person has over 4.5 hours of screen time every day Swap some of that for some sleep Incorporate these 3 fat loss methods and you'll be on your way to a leaner, healthier you.

14.01.2022 3 REASONS WHY YOU CAN'T LOSE FAT 1 You're eating to many calories What???... You were expecting some advanced detox trick or special secret as to why you're not dropping the soft stuff? Sorry to disappoint but this is the main culprit when it comes to fat loss. Just because you dropped bread, sugar etc from your diet doesn't mean you can get away with eating 1.2kg tomahawk steaks or a daily jar of peanut butter. Calories do matter! 2 You're not consistent enough Fat loss takes time and it is not linear either. Meaning if you dropped 3kg in your first week then don't expect that to happen week in, week out. You will have moments that feel like a plateau. It's in these moments that you need to be consistent and keep practicing your daily habits. Remember small seemingly insignificant tasks add up to cause huge results. 3You don't move enough I'm not even talking about training at the gym but simply getting up and moving. Simply hitting your 10,000 steps each day will roughly burn 500 calories. Sounds simple, but in todays world it can be hard. After all most of us sit in a car to drive to work, then sit at a desk all day before sitting down in front of the TV at the end of the day. Take time out of your day to move. Walk during your lunch break. Take the stairs. Park a little way from your work and enjoy the walk. I know these steps are simple but simple gets results. www.thegorillapit.com.au
