Welcome to Tough Tuesday, where the weak get humbled and the disciplined get shredded. Today, we're diving into what it really means to eat like you're serious about getting cut. Not kinda lean. Not “summer ready.” We’re talking vein-popping, skin-shrinking, razor-sharp cuts. This isn’t for the lazy. This isn’t for the casual. This is for the ones who want to look like they train. Let’s get into it.
💥 THE CUTTING MINDSET
Getting cut isn’t just about calories in and out — it’s about precision, consistency, and grit. You want abs? You're going to earn them with discipline on the fork just as much as with iron in your hands.
Forget the fads. No magic foods. No mystery macros. It’s high protein, moderate carbs (timed around workouts), healthy fats, and zero room for crap.
💣 MEATHEAD’S GOLDEN RULES FOR CUTTING
-
Protein First, Always: 1–1.5g per pound of bodyweight. More muscle = more metabolism = more shredded.
-
Carbs = Fuel, Not Comfort: Use them wisely, around training windows.
-
Fats for Hormones: Keep 'em clean—avocados, nuts, olive oil, egg yolks.
-
Hydrate Like a Maniac: 1 gallon a day minimum.
-
Supplements Fill the Gaps: You better believe you're using Meathead's Super Shred and Warrior Whey protein daily.
