I'm going to share the 11 health principles to transform your body and mind. They're what I use to go from soft 20% to a shredded 6% body fat in 90 days. And keep it off while constantly traveling as a busy entrepreneur. Anyone can use these to get fit fast, even if you've tried every fad diet and workout routine out there. Welcome to the Martell Method.
I went from rehab at 17 to building a $100 million empire and being a Wall Street Journal bestselling author. In this podcast, I'll show you exactly how to build a life and business you don't grow to hate. And make sure you don't miss anything by subscribing to my newsletter at martellmethod.com. So here's how to transform your body.
Starting with principle number one, it's not how much you eat, it's what you eat. See, a lot of people talk about calories. Let me tell you this, micronutrients is how you feel, calories is how much you weigh, but macros is how you look. See, most people think that it's about calories, but I'm telling you, you could eat the creepiest calories in the world. If you eat a bunch of Cinnabon,
or fricking Krispy Kreme donuts. You might hit your calorie goals and you might even lose weight, but you will feel like crap because you don't have the right micronutrients. You need the vitamins, you need the minerals, you need that to control your energy, to maintain good immunity, your mood, even your recovery post-workout is all about your micronutrients.
Macros is a completely different game. Your macros are your protein, your carbs, and your fats. And what's unique is you need the right type of macros for your specific goals to actually sculpt your body. If you don't understand how to do this, you can go into a cut, into a caloric deficit, lose the weight.
You actually have the ability on your reverse diet up if you've dialed in your macros to actually use that and your insulin to put on lean muscle mass. Most bodybuilders know it. Most people that are on a diet never get there. But it's not just about what you eat to transform your body. Let's get serious when you eat. Which brings us to principle number two, don't eat after 6 p.m.
I first learned this concept from my coach, Alan, because I realized that I would make bad decisions after 6 p.m. Honestly, most cravings, most cheats, most moments of weakness happened after 6. And Alan just said, you shut it down at 6. So what do you mean? He goes, you just shut it down at six. At six o'clock, you stop eating. There's no discussion. There's no conversation.
You have to eat within that window. So shut it down. It's funny because if you listen to Brian Johnson, the blueprint guy who wants to live to like 400 years old, he says the same thing. He said, old Brian used to make bad decisions after four or 5 p.m. And I just decided to take that optionality off the table. You got to do the same thing. Here's why it's so powerful.
First off, if you look at your eating pattern, you probably follow the same thing. You snack at night, you eat cause you're hungry. Just take it off the table. It's the easiest way to ensure there's no calorie slips. The other thing is your digestive system follows your circadian rhythm and you need time to rest. You need the ability for your body to relax and recover.
