Simplicity is the foundation of the Renegade Principles on training, nutrition, and life.
We can all resonate with the clarity and relief that comes when you peel away the inessential to expose simplicity.
Yet, we still gravitate towards complexity because of the false sense of satisfaction it provides. You feel like you’re doing something because you’re thinking so much.
“If I can just figure out the best way to get shredded as fast as possible, then I can start taking action.”
Your mental effort makes you feel like you’re making progress when, in reality, you’re paralyzed.
I can’t tell you his many times I have a guy who’s 30lbs oversight ask me about carb cycling, only to find out he’s having Kix for breakfast and a Hot Pocket for lunch.
How can you expect to get anything out of these advanced strategies without mastering the basics?
Fundamentals are fundamentals for a reason: they’re the actions that give you the biggest bang for your buck.
