John Mayer has been following the “Five Factor Diet” since he was hooked up with Jessica Simpson. The 5 Factor is a diet that lets you skip all the counting & measuring associated with most diets. You eat 5 healthy meals a day, (like 3 square meals & 2 snacks),your blood sugar levels & your hunger will most likely be in check.
“5-Factor is not a diet, in the sense that there’s nothing to fall off of. There’s nothing to say goodbye to, & nothing to long for. It is almost too good to be true!”
John has been working with his Personal Trainer James Sherman for the past 5 months & has transformed his body. He works out 5 days a week with his trainer. John does most of his workouts at NYC’s Rich Barretta Private Training Studio. His fitness regiment includes punching, kicking, a lot of exercises that target core muscles. John has also become very devoted to “Krav Maga,” an intense form of self-defense. “Krav Maga” is an eclectic self-defense & military hand-to-hand combat system developed in Israel, which emphasizes maximum threat neutralization in a “real life” context.
SOME DIETING TIPS...
1. Add just one fruit or veggie serving daily. Get comfortable with that, then add an extra serving until you reach 8 to 10 a day.
2. Eat at least two servings of a fruit or veggie at every meal.
3. Resolve never to supersize your food portions--unless you want to supersize your clothes.
4. Make eating purposeful, not mindless. Whenever you put food in your mouth, peel it, unwrap it, plate it & sit. Engage all of the senses in the pleasure of nourishing your body.
5. Start eating a big breakfast. It helps you eat fewer total calories throughout the day.
6. Make sure your plate is half veggies &/or fruit at both lunch & dinner.
7. Make your own lunch, & bring it to work.
8. Sit when you eat.
9. Eat more soup. The noncreamy ones are filling but low-cal.
10. Use a salad plate instead of a dinner plate.
