In a May 11 Instagram post, he explained that combining smart workout strategies with savvy nutrition hacks can help you achieve the body you have always wanted. In his caption, he shared, “3 months to shred fat. If I had 3 months to lose fat, here’s exactly what I’d do.”
Here is Thomas’ 3-month fat shred plan:
1. Start every morning with fasted cardio
Thomas said, “Trust me, 30-45 minutes of incline walking or light jogging before breakfast will torch fat.”
2. Lift weights 4-5x a week
He said, “Focus on compound lifts – squats, deadlifts, bench press – to burn more calories and build lean muscle.”
3. Dial in your protein
According to Thomas, aim for at least 1g per pound of body weight as ‘protein keeps you full and preserves muscle while you shred’.
4. Go ice cold
Thomas added, “Take cold showers. It’s uncomfortable, but it can actually boost metabolism and help with fat burning.”
5. Embrace intermittent fasting
“Skip breakfast or limit your eating window to 6-8 hours to help control calorie intake,” Thomas said.
