We created the United Nations of Gainz or Unog, with some friends in Venice Beach a while back.

There is a workout challenge to join the group.

While I did complete it last year, I did it again this year to support our new members while they were doing it.

It’s a great mindset challenge since it’s very easy to want to quit!

Here is the full workout I did today (minus the 7 mile beach run).

Total: 1223 reps

1. Pull ups x 100 + 27 pull ups x 1 set
2. Push ups x 200
3. Squats x 200
4. Rows x 200
5. Leg flutters x 200
6. Single bar Dips x 200
7. Skull crushers x 200
8. Pull ups x 75
9. Muscle ups x 21
Don’t fall for any fat loss scam and quick fixes.

There is only ONE way to lose fat long term.

This way includes 3 elements:

1️⃣ Do calisthenics to build muscle mass. Bodyweight training is accessible anywhere, anytime, no gym membership needed, no excuses.
If you are a beginner, Start with push ups, squats and core work. I post lots of videos and blog articles on how to get started.

2️⃣ You must do intense cardio 1-2 times a week. There is No way around that! Go for a run 2 times a week no matter how fast you are running as long as you sweat and breathe heavy!

3️⃣ Calorie deficit: you can NOT outwork a bad diet. So you have to eat less calories than the energy you consume through the day. It’s that simple!

4️⃣ Do that for 3 months, assess progress and adjust then.

It works 💯
For me
For 1000+ people I trained
It will
Work for you too!
