My name is Aaron Straker. Eating large quantities of quality, nutrient-dense, whole foods and lifting weights are some of my favorite things to do. The grocery store and the kitchen are some of my favorite places to be. I have a vision that one day everyone at the gym will have the body that they work for, because they realize how they spend the other 23 hours of their day are equally as important. I want people to see that the answers they seek aren't found in more reps, more sets, program hopping, fat burners, pump stacks, and other workout-specific supplements that provide only marginal value. I believe that education is ultimately the missing key for those who struggle to achieve long term success with their nutrition. For this very reason, education is the cornerstone from which I build each and every implementation. More.

Join my free Facebook group: http://bit.ly/DIESELDADDOJO Or Schedule a call with me here and will see if I can help you: https://bit.ly/DieselDadConsult Your body and brain do not want you to be jacked. Low body fat and large amounts of lean muscle mass is the holy grail of body composition. Unfortunately, your genetics disagree, and this is what makes metabolic function so frustrating. However, there is a magic pill to overcome this, but, before we get there, it's important to understand why your body is fighting against you. You are hard wired for survival. For millions of years, hunter gatherer societies had limited resources, calories were difficult to find, and your body built mechanisms to store energy (fat). In modern times, food is abundant (grocery stores), insanely easy to find (every corner), and calories are cheap (fast food). However, those survival mechanisms were never turned off. Our bodies still think we need to store food for the cold winter ahead. The overeating and storing energy cycle continues until you are slow, soft, sluggish, 15 pounds overweight, unhappy, and dying to take the deep dive into the Diesel Dad Diet. The magic weapon to overcome your body's backwards thinking is muscle. Metabolically, muscle is very expensive. To build muscle, you must create an environment in which you break down old muscle tissue and repair it with new, stronger muscle tissue capable of meeting the demands of this new, challenging environment. At its core, this is why lifting weights and getting stronger is so important. By creating an environment that breaks down weak tissue you force your body to adapt, repair, rebuild, and get stronger. That process of adapting, repairing, rebuilding, and getting stronger is like throwing gasoline on the fire that is your metabolism. Calories no longer need to be saved for the future. Fat stores become the fuel to build lean muscle mass. Of course your body doesn't want you to be jacked. Muscle is expensive. Constantly repairing old, weak cells and replacing them with new, stronger cells is hard. Muscle is the magic pill. Soft, slow, and sluggish has no place in an environment where strong, lean, and athletic are necessary for survival. Muscle is the key to optimizing your metabolism. Muscle is the key to burning body fat. Muscle is the key to eliminating slow, soft, and sluggish. Muscle is the key to strong, lean, and athletic.

In fact, when it comes to exercising, you are overemphasizing its importance on fat loss and body composition. Despite the social capital you receive for the blood, sweat, and tears of grueling workouts, these brutal sessions can be detrimental to you reaching your goals. Wouldn't it be great if you could spend less time in the gym, more time doing leisure activities, and lose fat faster? This flies in the face of conventional wisdom. TV commercials, Facebook Ads, and elite athletes lead you to believe the only way to achieve your goals is to train 24/7. Those hours on the gym floor should be a near death experience and we all know the only way to finish a good workout is laying on your back, praying you don't throw up, while the rest of class cleans up their equipment. In reality, cutting your grass, vacuuming your house, and going for a walk is equally beneficial for fat loss as your 1-hour HIIT class. Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis (NEAT) is the sum total of all activity in your day that is not sleeping, eating, or training. Yes, training, and training hard is important, however, it is impossible to keep that intensity throughout the day and overtraining can be detrimental to achieving your goals. Think of your body as a high performance vehicle. Hitting the gas and flooring it (High Intensity Exercise) sounds cool in the short term but a terrible decision for long term performance. You burn a lot of gas but things are going to break down quickly. NEAT is the slow burn, keeping the engine revved all day, burning fuel at a steady pace, all day, without the exploding engine. Waking up 10 minute early and completing the Diesel Dad 100. Pacing while you talk on the phone. Going for walks with your family. Fidgeting, not sitting still, and looking forward to "Non-Exercise" just as much as training time.. This is the beauty of the Diesel Dad Diet. Your body will be a furnace that burns fat around the clock without spending countless hours in the gym You will build more muscle. Burn more fat. Eliminate the crippling confusion about your metabolism. Stop feeling slow, soft, and sluggish.

Join my free Facebook group: http://bit.ly/DIESELDADDOJO Or schedule a call with me here and will see if I can help you: https://bit.ly/DieselDadConsult What is Your Metabolism? Metabolisms are confusing. Everyone knows they have one but nobody truly understands how they work. Wouldn't it be awesome to unlock the keys to how your body burns calories? Wouldn't it be empowering to know exactly much to eat to build a strong, lean, and athletic body you are proud of? I get this process can be daunting. I am not a scientist, have never worn a lab coat, and have an undiagnosed allergy to academia that has haunted me my entire life. Lucky for you, this means I get to talk to you like a real human, without all the jargon that confuses the hell out of people. So what is your metabolism? It is the total amount of energy expended by your body in a given day. This number is represented by an acronym, TDEE, which stands for "Total Daily Energy Expenditure." There are four major ways your body expends energy. Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR): All the chemical and hormonal reactions that keep you alive. This is the amount of energy you need for brain and organ function, repair, and rebuilding of cells with absolutely ZERO movement in your day. Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis (NEAT): The amount of energy needed to walk, talk, raise your hands, type emails, and move throughout your day. NEAT is the sum total of all non-exercise movement in your day. Physical Activity: This is the one everyone understands. This is the dedicated time you spend in the gym, lifting, conditioning, and training. Thermal Effect of Food (TEF): Every bit of food that enters your mouth undergoes a digestion process turning protein into amino acids, carbohydrates into glucose, and fat into fatty acids that can be used by your body. What's great about understanding these four components of your Total Daily Energy Expenditure is that all four are not created equal. BMR = Roughly 60% of your TDEE NEAT = Roughly 15% of your TDEE Exercise = Roughly 15% of your TDEE TEF = Roughly 10% of your TDEE These numbers are the key to success. With so many people focusing on more exercise, they miss the largest goal of increasing their baseline metabolism. This is the key component to the Diesel Dad Diet Over 13 weeks you will lose 13 pounds by systematically increasing your baseline metabolism. You will: Reduce the total time spent in the gym. Build more muscle. Burn more fat. Eliminate the crippling confusion about your metabolism. Stop all the negativity of feeling slow, soft, and sluggish. Build a strong, lean, and athletic body you are proud of.

Schedule Your Diesel Dad Discovery Call Fitness: An Ethical Responsibility I hate the term "motivation." Motivation is overrated. The entire fitness industry is built on short selling aesthetics. Looking good naked is awesome but the goal you have in mind is rarely attainable without a lifestyle you cannot sustain. Performance plays to the long game until your joints despise you, consistency wains, and you're telling stories of yesteryears bench press. In the last year, over 42% of Americans gained an average of 29 pounds. Millennials, age 25-40, gained an average of 41 pounds during lockdowns. As an industry, it is time to move past motivation, aesthetics, and performance. I believe you have an ethical responsibility to being strong, lean, and athletic. Fitness is a conversation of ethics. A conversation about being an asset, not a liability. Increasing strength and decreasing fragility. Carrying a low body fat percentage to reduce the risk of disease. Athleticism to be an active participant in life. These are learned behaviors modeled by leaders in our own lives. Before teachers, coaches, and mentors, there were parents that laid a foundation for right and wrong. Fitness is an ethical responsibility in the same manner that we have agreed lying, cheating, and stealing are detrimental to a functioning society. This is accepting that over time, motivation, aesthetics, and performance will vary. However, the ethical responsibility is a constant. Accepting this requires developing a physical education on movement, strength, and conditioning. An education on metabolic health, macronutrients, and muscle. An education on running, jumping, playing, and physical freedom. Accepting fitness as an ethical responsibility requires leadership. It requires you to get off the sidelines, step into the arena, and lead by example. Because strong families, raising strong kids, are led by Diesel Dads.

Concurrent Training (CT) is defined as the combination of resistance and endurance training in a periodized program to maximize all aspects of physical performance. Unless an athlete is in a pure-power sport like Olympic Weightlifting, or a pure-endurance sport like long distance cycling; a combination of both power-related and endurance-related attributes are required to excel in mixed-type sports. Mixed type sports are sports that depend on several different energy systems and different strength and speed properties. MMA, boxing, basketball, soccer, hockey and many other team-based sports fall under this category.
