#276 Why Every Diet You’ve Tried Ended, and What an Army Ranger Does Instead | Ben Fudge @Trevor Kashey Nutrition

Why does every diet eventually end with you back where you started? Ben Fudge says the problem was never your willpower. It was the plan.

Ben Fudge, head coach of the Elite program at Trevor Kashey Nutrition and a former Army Ranger, reveals Cognitive Nutrition: a behavior-first method that turns new eating habits into skills that finally hold. He walks through the SRO model, why you track before you target, and how to stay calm when the cookie is right in front of you.
