Here's another easy lean body recipe for all my fat-haters.  Today we're doing up some Simple Chicken With Balsamic Vinaigrette.

Here's what you need:

--> 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

--> 1 tbsp chopped parsley

--> 2 tbsp olive oil

--> 2 cloves garlic, chopped

--> 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice

--> 2 tbsp Dijon mustard

--> 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar

Here's how to make it:

--> Whisk the mustard, vinegar, lemon juice, garlic and olive oil together in a bowl.

--> Grab a large Ziploc bag and place the chicken breasts and vinaigrette inside, seal and toss it around a few times to coat the chicken breasts.  Place in refrigerator for 15-20 minutes.

--> Preheat over to 400 degrees, place chicken breasts on large greased baking dish and cook 20-30 minutes until thoroughly done.

--> Cut up thin slices of chicken breast, throw some parsley and extra vinaigrette on top and now you have yourself a tender, tasty, lean body dish.  Serve with steamed veggies and enjoy.

Simple Chicken With Balsamic Vinaigrette per-serving stats:

--> serves 4 people as outlined above - go ahead and adjust accordingly, but I like to have leftovers

--> 236 calories

--> 28 g protein

--> 8.5 g carbs

--> 2.8 g fat

--> 0 g fiber (you'll get this with your side of veggies)

Everything you put in your mouth is either going to take  you one step closer, or one step farther away from your fitness goals.  This lean body recipe will definitely take one step closer to your 6 pack abs.

It's tough to beat chicken and veggies when you're trying to create a meal that doesn't taste like cardboard and yet, will still bring you closer to the lean body you're working towards.

Remember, if you want to lose fat and get ripped...you need to start living like someone who's lean and ripped...and I can guarantee you these people have eaten a boatload of chicken and veggies throughout their journey to "Leanville."

PS - Here is a comprehensive list of the very best diet programs available today: DIETS...

Would you show up to work all week long, work your butt off, do everything your boss asks...and then "hope" to get a paycheck at the end of the week?  Only to have payday come and see the ole bank account barely hovering above insufficient funds for the sixth consecutive month?  HELL NO - that's crazy, right?

Then why do so many people put in the blood, sweat and tears (okay, maybe blood is a lil exaggerated) day after day, month after month with their grueling workouts...

...and then not take any credit for these workouts, or have any results to show for this hard work, simply because they failed to follow a sound nutrition plan?

I say:  "Pay me, I'll take my check in hundreds please and I'd like to go ahead and skip paying taxes if that's cool."

Don't be a fool... go to all extremes to pick up that check and cash in on the hard work you've been putting in.

Even if you have to walk a mile to get that check and drive to 6 banks before you can get it cashed.... I assure you, it will be worth the hassle.

And if you aren't willing to go out of your way to get that check each week... then my advice is QUIT WORKING.

So let's get at it and learn some basic principles to ensure we're all getting paid.

First off, you must understand that nutrition is about 85% responsible for your total fitness results. In other words, even if you follow my fat loss workouts exactly as prescribed... your ability to transform your body into a lean, mean, younger and more energetic version of your current self will be minimal at best.

However, if you start doing the exercises AND start eating healthier TOGETHER.... you will see amazing results very fast.  Just how quickly you start losing weight, toning up and turning heads depends on how closely you follow the exercises, diet tips, mental training AND lifestyle modifications I outline in this blog.

You could have a sweet car, but how far would you get and how much good would it be to you without gas, oil and the front right tire? I'm just full of amazing analogies today, (wink)...

Having said that, here are some super easy tips that you can incorporate immediately to start seeing the fruits of your workout labor...and ensure you have the sexiest car in your city.

- Make sure you're creating a large caloric deficit (read Fat Loss 101 - Don't Overthink It, Stupid)

- Eat 6-8 "snacks" spaced every 2-3 hours throughout the day (stop thinking "meals" and learn to graze like an animal)

- Drink more water and green tea (not sugary green tea drinks, but the real deal)

- Never skip breakfast and always eat within 20 minutes of waking up

- Switch your "heavier" carbs around so that you eat the majority of them for breakfast and lunch (not at dinner...or even worse, right before bed)

- Go through your cupboards and fridge right now and throw out all the crap (better yet, give it to a neighbor you don't like...so they get fat instead of you)

- Don't bring crap into your house. If it's not there, you can't eat it (and I don't want to hear the "But I have kids" excuse...why do you think our society looks the way it does?)

- Drink a tall glass of water before every single meal/snack so you feel full faster

- Start your meals out by eating a large serving of vegetables and protein FIRST...then have some carbs

- Consume lots of olive oil, almonds, walnuts, salmon and avocado (healthy fats)

- Make routine trips to the grocery store if possible (ie twice weekly to buy fresh veggies and lean protein)

- Do all your cooking, preparation, planning and packaging on Sunday so you're ready for the busy week ahead (make your significant other help out...they should jump on board anyways...if you're flying solo, just suck it up)

- Carry around an inspirational picture and get it out when you eat...maybe one of you when you looked your hottest or some celeb who's got it going on

- Stay off the scale...real change takes at least a month (probably longer), and most times people confuse themselves by jumping on the dumb thing multiple times per day

- Chew your food at least 10 bites longer than you would like to

- Eat with people who are more fit than you...or with those who have a lean body

- Eat out less and have a gameplan for when you do go out to eat (look at the menu online in advance)

- Use smaller plates, bowls, etc

- Brush your teeth and grab a piece of gum or mint immediately after eating....this will tell your brain you're done eating and prevent you from going back for seconds and then desert

- Go for a walk or do some chores after eating to help burn up some of the extra calories

- Avoid carbs before bed (veggies are fine though)

- Eat protein with each and every meal

- Stop believing this "politically correct" crap that says it's okay to eat the 100-calorie pack of cookies...or that all of your favorite treats are okay to eat if you get the reduced-fat versions

- Cut down on sugars and all processed foods (when was the last time you saw a bagel tree?)

- Look at the ingredients information on food labels...if it looks like a short novel written in Japanese (ie has lots of ingredients that you can't pronounce...then don't eat it)

- Learn to live without condiments (seriously, suck it up...I can't remember the last time I consumed mayo...and I'm not looking for a pat on the back...I'm just telling you it's pathetic if you think you can't live without mayo on your Subway)

- Stop looking for the next magical DIET.  In fact, remove that term from your vocabulary...I've never found a diet that worked long term

("But Brad, I have a friend who lost 37 lbs on the grapefruit diet." Spare me.  Your friend is lying, they probably lost all of their muscle and lots of water weight, meaning they just killed their chances of losing more weight or keeping the weight off.  Plus, give me an update in a year and let me know if your friend is still eating nothing but grapefruit and having amazing results.  Doubtful, to say the least...)

You're thinking this sounds ridiculously difficult and you may never enjoy another meal again, right?

Wrong...these last two tips are biggies, so keep reading...

- Don't try to jump right into all of these tips immediately. You will fail.

Instead, try to make just 1 or 2 goals per week and do what it takes to accomplish this. For example, week 1 might be to eat out one less time than normal.  Week 2 might be to eat out one less time (again) and so on until you're down to only once or twice per week of eating out.

The next week might be drinking 8 glasses of water per day...and so on until you're close to that "ideal" plan, which will be:  LOTS of veggies, healthy fats and lean protein eaten every 2-3 hours throughout the day...smaller servings of HEALTHY carbs eaten earlier in the day...and tons of water and green tea to wash everything down and promote major fat loss.

Now for my favorite weight loss nutrition tip...

- Take 1 day per week (1 WHOLE day...not 1 "meal") and indulge on anything and everything you want. This resets the metabolism and helps you to really burn fat on the other 6 healthier days. I swear, this is backed by very legit research and I personally use this "cheat day" myself with great success.  This way you can have your cake and eat it too...all day long...one day each week.  For best results, follow this cheat day up with a 24-hour fast day.

It has to be done like this, though - don't eat bad things every single day and think this will help boost metabolic rate.  The cheat day is actually very strategic and has to be used under the perfect circumstances to work for you and not against you.  Read the detailed article I wrote on using a cheat day by clicking the link above.

And there you have it...29 (if I counted correctly) awesome tips that will surely have you GETTIN' PAID for your weight loss workouts.

Now if you'll excuse me, I hafta go make it rain...

To your next FAT paycheck (and therefore ROCKIN' body),
