secrets to his eternal youth when asked about the rules of Fitness Frank said there are no rules there are only things in your head I probably got to my best shape when I was 52 years old a message I kept giving people younger than me there are no rules so don't think as you get older you get slower the Only Rule is don't stop and don't quit Frank gillo has raised some eyebrows by claiming that he maintains a staggering 5% body fat year round this guy is 52 years old and he has 5% body fat
5% that's insane how is he keeping it so incredibly low stay tuned as we unfold the secret tips behind grillo's ridiculously sculpted Physique in this video which includes his diet what he eats for breakfast lunch and dinner the five supplements he takes daily his weekly workout routine Frank's food habits and what he eats for breakfast lunch and dinner grillo's preserved condition surely owes to his Immaculate diet as a follower of the paleo diet Frank focuses on nutrient dense foods higher in protein and fat the foods in grillo's fridge are all organic from his salad dressings
to the half and half he uses for his coffee you wouldn't catch gillo counting his calories tracking his macros or even weighing himself I stick to a palec Diet Wild CAU fish organic chicken no grains I'm the first one to say that's a fat but it works for years I avoided fat but I was actually destroying myself they tricked us into believing if you ate fat you get fat and it's the opposite my cholesterol and blood pressure all my vitals have never been better it has taken me about 2 and 1/2 years to get back
to a place where I am starting to feel normal again here is what a typical day will look like for Frank gillo pre-workout his day starts at 5:30 a.m. as he makes himself a good cup of coffee before hitting the gym he drinks Bulletproof Coffee a type of Keto coffee with high fat content meant to make you feel satiated I do my Bulletproof Coffee with some ghee and collagen protein and stuff that's basically my first meal breakfast back from from the gym he loves to have four scrambled eggs whole grained toast mixed fruit and Greek
yogurt for breakfast midday snack for a snack he indulges in a cup of unsalted nuts with a protein shake lunch lunch is mostly fresh fish or chicken a large portion of stained vegetables mixed salad of leafy greens with a dressing of olive oil snack in case he feels hungry before it's dinner time he eats a protein bar or drinks a shake as a snack dinner dinner is always a large portion of red meat along with sweet potato fries mixed vegetables and salad he likes to finish his meal early so he goes to bed feeling right
five supplements Frank takes daily grillo's first approach has always remained to get all his nutrients from food and as a Paleo follower he's not such a big fan of supplements there has been speculations that the American Star has been using steroids to maintain his physique and this is how he reacts to that I've never done steroids these are the supplements he takes Daily Number One whey protein powder according to him whey powder is a complete protein which means it delivers all the amino acids your body needs for recovery and muscle building having such a stringent
Fitness routine Frank makes sure to make this His Holy Grail number two vitamin D the second supplement he swears by is vitamin D according to him it's important to improve metabolic and hormonal Health vitamin D also plays an essential role in improving the functioning of the human body I take 10,000 UI of vitamin D he says number three CoQ10 vitamin CoQ10 supplements improve heart health blood sugar and help manage high blood pressure which is why gillo doesn't go day without them according to him CoQ10 keeps him energized throughout the day so he performs well during
workout hours number four preworkout supplement gillo carefully plans every part of his Fitness and workout plan whether it's for a gym session or a few rounds of boxing a pre-workout supplement provides him the endurance to push that further number five turmeric guillow says that he tends to get a bit inflamed due to how much he trains so he takes turmeric to combat that Frank grillo's workout routine but before we delve into Frank's workout routine I have fantastic news for all you busy men over 40 today I'm thrilled to introduce to you the fit father project

burpees three sets Thursday boxing we've seen some great action shots of gillo in the ring and he dedicates at least one day to get the gloves on according to him there is no better workout than boxing you're burning deep deep fat cells and using everything you store if I wasn't boxing I would be in jail or dead probably dead I need to hit things and I need to get hit that's as simple as I can put it he does Shadow Boxing three rounds of varying speed and steps Aqua bag or heavy bag boxing 30 minutes
