Operation Get Dan Diced has begun!

I have some news for you guys! As you know, I have been going through a really frustrating time with my ongoing knee injury. It is just not getting better. It’s keeping me from the usual martial arts training that I love. So for the time being, I need a temporary challenge, a short term distraction.

This is why over the next 6 weeks, my goal is to take my body fat levels back down to the 5% range of my old competitive bodybuilding days. I’m not planning on stepping on stage again. But I want to see if I still have the testicular fortitude to take my body to that level of leanness again.

It’s been a good few years since I’ve gone through that process. This is why I will be getting help from my pal Jake Weekes of Leaner Stronger (https://www.leaner-stronger.com/).

Jake, as well as being a great guy, is super knowledgeable, and is one of the few people I know who I can “geek out” with!

I’ll be working with Jake as one of his online clients. His job is to give me a second set of eyes, be the voice of reason, tell me what to do, and keep me on track to make sure I do it! My job is to just get shit done!

I plan to document my journey over these next 6 weeks, so stay tuned for updates!

And by the way, if you haven’t done so already, make sure you download my free guide:

Is it worth taking caffeine?

https://howistayfit.com/diet/caffeine/ Is it worth taking caffeine? Caffeine is found in almost all pre-workout supplements.

Considering how many coffee drinkers there are in the world, caffeine is one of the most commonly used “drugs” globally!
