Here are 5 simple fitness tips that most people don t utilize:

1. Add isometric exercises into your routine. Most people s exercise routines involve a lot
of squatting, pushing, pulling, and probably some form of cardio training, like running
and jumping.
This is good, but to really improve your athletic performance, add "holding". Do exercises - like planks, wall sits, or leg lifts - that force you to build isometric
strength.

2. Eat more. If you exercise a lot and are still not seeing results, the biggest problem is
that your nutrition sucks. It's not about eating more salad, it s about eating more
protein, fat, and carbohydrates. Have you ever seen a muscular rabbit? Me neither. Don t
eat like one.

3. Sleep enough. The original steroid is sleeping 8 hours per night. Sleeping allows your
muscles to recover and your mind to rest, and it also just feels good. In order to
optimize fitness, you don't need silly recovery things like those funny ice boots (but they
can help at a higher level), you just sleep enough.

4. Take creatine. Creatine is the single best (legal) supplement out there that you can
take for athletic performance. It does not "make you stronger", but allows you to
recover faster. Sometimes, people are afraid of creatine "making them bulky" - but this
is a false fear. Even if you gain weight, it will only be 1 2 KG tops (unnoticeable). Take 5
grams per day for the next year and watch your relationship with fitness change.

5. To lose weight, just start going for walks. People underestimate the power of walking.
Whenever you need to cut weight for Jiu-Jitsu, the first thing you should start doing is
adding a 30 - 40-minute brisk walk into my daily routine. This clears the mind, gives you
time to think, is easy on the body, and can burn up to 200 calories. Walks are the
easiest form of steady-state cardio.

Good fitness is simple. People make it complicated because they're trying to sell you
something.
