With so many fitness articles online, it is easy to get overwhelmed and confused. There are so many blogs, magazines, books, and youtube channels that you would need ten lifetimes to consume all of that information.
But it doesn’t stop there.
Would you look at that?
It’s the new year which means that a lot of people will be making their New Year’s resolutions and fitness goals in the next couple of weeks.
And that’s not necessarily a bad thing.
What’s bad is that pretty much everyone will give up by the end of January and revert to their old behaviors.
This got me thinking: “I was once there myself. Hopelessly making New Year’s resolutions and enthusiastically embarking on yet another weight loss journey… for about three weeks. Why not put together some of the lessons I’ve learned along the way and share them?”
And thus, this article was born.
In no particular order, here are the 24 best tips that will help you make lasting changes in your habits and achieve your fitness goals.
Looking for that perfect diet that is going to lead the way to easy and sustained fat loss?

Which one should you go for?

Body recomposition is somewhat of a complicated subject, and there are some strong opinions out there.
You see, we are led to believe that to build a great body, you need to do something like this:
Bulk ⇒ Cut ⇒ Bulk ⇒ Cut ⇒ Bulk ⇒ Cut...
After each bulk-cut cycle is done, you should be a little bit bigger, leaner and stronger.
But imagine that you’ve managed to drastically improve your body composition by building muscle and losing fat at the same time. After all, don’t we all want that?
The problem is, most people see it as black or white. Possible or impossible. But as with every other aspect of fitness, context is crucial here.
Today, we’ll go over body recomposition, who can do it effectively, how to pull it off and what might be a better option for certain people.
