Resource Highlight: From Skinny Fat to Shredded and Strong

When William came to 3M Coaching, he wasn’t new to fitness. A former three-sport athlete, he had spent years grinding through Beachbody workouts, fasting protocols, and DIY nutrition efforts. But despite his dedication, the abs never showed—and the results never matched the effort.

That all changed when he joined Team Alpha.

“I never had abs before. Even as an athlete,” William shared. “But this program? It’s different. It’s simple. It’s powerful. It works.”

What stood out most was his drive to go beyond average. William embraced the full system—locking in his macros, mastering meal timing, and finally understanding the difference between random effort and strategic execution.

William’s transformation wasn’t just physical. It was mental, emotional, and personal. With the support of Team Alpha and a clear system to follow, he stepped into the next level of discipline—and now leads by example.

Nutrition Insight: Why Protein Changes the Game

Struggling with mid-day hunger or energy crashes? It might not be your willpower — it’s probably your protein intake.

High-protein meals are a game changer for men trying to lose fat, build muscle, and stay mentally sharp. Why? Because protein doesn't just support muscle recovery — it also keeps you full longer and stabilizes your energy.

Here’s how dialing up your protein helps:

• Reduces cravings: Protein slows digestion, which keeps hunger at bay and stops you from raiding the pantry an hour after lunch.

• Improves focus: Unlike sugar-heavy meals that spike and crash your energy, protein helps keep your brain alert and steady.

• Preserves muscle: Especially during a fat loss phase, protein helps your body hold onto lean mass while burning fat.

• Boosts metabolism: Protein has a higher thermic effect (your body burns more calories digesting it) than carbs or fats.

Want to make it simple?

Build your meals around lean proteins like grilled chicken, 93% lean beef, turkey, salmon, eggs, or a quality whey shake. Then add carbs and fats after your protein is covered.

It’s not about starving yourself—it’s about eating smarter.

Most Asked: Your Summer Travel Guide to Staying On Track

Summer trips and vacations don’t have to derail your fitness progress. With a little planning and simple habits, you can enjoy your time away and keep your goals intact.

Here’s a quick guide to help you stay on track while traveling this summer:

• Start Your Day with Protein
  Kick off with a protein-packed breakfast. Even quick options like gas station eggs or jerky are better than sugary pastries.

• Stay Hydrated
  Drink plenty of water early and throughout the day. Staying hydrated helps reduce bloating and cravings.

• Pack Smart Snacks
  Bring portable options like protein bars, nuts, or single-serve oats. These keep you fueled when healthy choices are limited.

• Keep Moving
  Take advantage of downtime by walking—whether it’s through airports, hotel halls, or exploring your destination. Staying active helps maintain momentum.

• Enjoy Your Treats — Then Reset
  It’s okay to indulge occasionally. Savor your favorite summer foods guilt-free, then jump back into your routine.

Remember, it’s not about perfection but balance and strategy. Small, consistent choices add up.
