2. Eat correctly
You’ve probably heard the phrase “Abs are made in the kitchen.” Well, that shows that all the muscles are made in the kitchen.
You can exercise until the day you die, but your muscles will not thrive without proper fuel. You need the right nutrients to prepare your body for training, and your muscles need to recover after training. No, that doesn’t mean eating just chicken and broccoli.

This is where magic really happens. It’s easy say You’re going to exercise and eat right, but it all falls apart without accountability.

Find support from friends and family.
