Here is my ultimate list of health and fitness resources that I've sent to my personal training clients to help them reach their optimal health (and lose weight)! You’ll find the answers on how to lose body fat, what to eat for breakfast to lose weight, how to manage stress, why you’re not losing body fat, how to eat on the road, what drinks to avoid, how to approach fitness and avoid injury, how to improve your sleep, how to make your life more efficient, and much more!
Please share this list with anyone (friend, family member, colleague, client, etc.) who wants to change their life and finally see a difference in their health and lifestyle. Also, be sure to bookmark this page and return to it when you're frustrated with your results (which happens to everyone) or need a new idea.
Tip: Skim through this list and find the headlines that are most relevant to your current goals and interests (then spend 20 seconds skimming the article).

Disclaimer: Hey, vegan, vegetarian and plant-based friends! If you have any insight about this topic that I overlooked or left out, don’t hesitate to send me an email (michael@michaelmoodyfitness.com). I grew up on a Midwestern diet of meat, cheese, and processed foods and just want to guide the world back to some of its plant roots (see what I did there). Help me educate the world on the benefits of a whole foods plant-based diet!
