Your 4-Day Meal Plan

As a Kung Fu instructor and health fanatic, I get a lot of people telling me they just want to know what they should be eating each day to be “healthy”. These people aren’t looking to bulk up for a weightlifting competition or carb load for a marathon… they just want to know how to be healthy and follow a balanced diet.


Well, guess what!? I’ve got your back. I’ve written a diet plan just for you. No, I don’t calculate macros – why? Because I’m a father, work two full time jobs, train martial arts every day, and frankly… I have better things to do. But I do ensure all my meals are nutrient-dense, I ensure I’m consuming plenty of healthy fats, lean proteins, a ton of veggies and plenty of water every day. 


If you have particular goals to reach, count those macros baby! But if you’re a busy mother or father with work deadlines chewing your butt… meh.


Here is your 4-day meal plan full of delicious meal ideas for you to play with. Most of the time I’ll have the same breakfast and lunch for a few days in a row – whatever tickles your fancy, go with it!
