The Alpha M. Diet Plan
Alpha has been in a serious rut with his diet. It’s a 3 step process: workout, cardio, and diet. His workout and cardio have been going okay, but he can’t get re-energized with his diet. He has been eating at night. Also, if temptations are in the house, 9-times-out-of-10 he can ignore and avoid. But when he’s not disciplined and focused, he goes nuts!
If you are also looking to get back on track, now is the time! Summer is going to be here before you know it. Who’s with Alpha!? We all fall off of the wagon. It’s about getting back on track. Check out The Alpha M. Diet Plan if you are having a tough time figuring out what to eat. Also check out Workout #4 that increases the cardio to assist with fat loss.
