My Wife’s Zero-Effort Diet Hack

Back in October 2021, our first daughter was born.

For a couple months, my wife spent exactly 0 minutes per day worrying about the way her body looks because she was so busy learning how to be a great mom.

But eventually, she wanted to get back into shape.

So once she was cleared to workout again, we started putting together a bit of a plan.

The goal wasn’t for her to get back to heavy lifting right away…

We simply wanted to get her moving a bit first.

Which is exactly what she did.

We started taking more walks and got into doing super light, slightly modified versions of the classic compound movements:

-Goblet squats
-Dumbbell romanian deadlifts
-Dumbbell bench press
-Dumbbell rows

And that worked out really well for several months before we started hitting the gym again.

That’s all well and good, but as I’ve said many times before:

Most of your results will come from your diet.

So how did she handle that?

She didn’t.
